    Titan that hurts My wife gave up her space in the basement for this project, so I guess she gets to decorate. Hell I'd be done by now if I didn't have to make the room look pretty :notsure:

    I'm not aware of a formula that you refer to krj-1168. I just got 7 buckets of salt and will go from there. I had a bunch of plumbing parts that were going to show up today, but the shipper lost the box. So no new pictures yet. As for cost per gallon I try not to think of depressing things...

    New Pan World 200ps external pump for sale

    I have a brand new never seen water Pan World 200ps external pump for sale. It's rated at 1750 gph and is comparable to a Iwaki 70RLT. I bought it for $249 and am asking $200 plus a flat rate of $20 for shipping. It's just not big enough for what I need .

    I'll mix my own saltwater. It will take awhile, but the sharks are only about a foot long so I have time

    supermanvx, hopefully I'll have the liner in this weekend. With my 60gpd ro/di filter it may take a while to actually fill it. After the lining is in I have some more finish work and painting to do on the outside.

    I may have to add more circulation, I came by this pump kind of on accident. I have a vent fan in the room with the pump for humidity issues.

    For circulation/return, I'm using a pan world 200ps (1750gph). I'm hoping this will be enough. I'm making a large wet/dry and will have a 1000 gallon rated fluidized bed filter. At a later date I may add ozone, but I'm not sure. I may just stick with UV. I also have an aqua c ev-2000...

    Anyone have a port jackson???

    My PJ pretty much left my snails along. I didn't have crabs. I fed him squid, silversides and shrimp. Sounds like a great tank. Anything else on the stocking list?

    Anyone have a port jackson???

    I found my PJ pretty easy to take care of. Once they're eating they should be fine. There are somethings to consider on the tank setup, mainly a soft sand bottom. Give him a good variety of foods and you should do fine. What size tank are you planning?

    Anyone have a port jackson???

    She was about 18 inches long. Her stripes faded over the next couple of years. It's hard to tell when you see them every day. Her stripes are still visable just very light. I'll try and get some new photos of her so you can see how much she's faded. She's hiding right now so maybe later.

    Shark pond construction pictures

    No glass. The inside is lined with plywood then a pond liner pad and pond liner. Trying to keep it relatively inexpensive. Right now the stock list is two smoothhounds that I have in another tank. They are about a foot long now. They're going to look like two peas rolling around in a...
