I live in the Galleria area. My girlfriend and I have 3 FW tanks and 2 SW tanks in a 1bedroom apt. We bought a snowflake eel about two weeks ago and have enjoyed its crazy antics. It takes food and thrashes it in a death roll like a crocodile :) We named him Spot after his colors of course and...

Thanks! Im really stoked about the rock and such.. if ya cant tell :) The tank has been bugging me as i fight battle after battle with something> I still have a bad microbubble problem, but i have a way that has significantly reduced them at least. Next project is finishing my hood. Once i get...

The hideous thing in the corner is a mag7 with pvc on it for water flow. I had done this due to the fact that i could not get rid of the IMMENSE ammount of bubbles generated when i turn on my little giant. What ive done now is put the little giant into a closed loop setup and the mag7 is now in...

Thanks!! I am very excited about it :)

Well a guy at work is closing out his tank so that he can move. I bought 440w of VHO from him a couple weeks ago, this time i got probably a 100lbs of liverock from him. The rock is still all live, but since itw as kept in "storage" with no lighting all the coraline algea is gone. I think the...

i am curreently building my canopy. Im not sure of the panels that show as yet, but the frame is being made out of 2x4's. Should be more than sturdy enough i would think.

I run a Little Giant TE 5.5 pump.. pushes at least 1500 gph through my 100g tank.

I built mine entirely out of pvc. Just ran pipes over the sides of the tank with endcaps and drilled holes in the pipes. I have one in each corner that goes down nealy to the sand and one that goes horizontaly across the back glass. I have a STRONG pump tho as all the pipes have several 90...

No after 10 minutes i turn it off :) its due to the HUGE ammount of water it moves (1950gph at 0ft ) and that makes a TON of bubbles in my sump that are being sucked up and blown back into the tank by the 3 spraybars. So until i get the microbubble issue in the sump solved ill have this issue in...

Just thought i would post this pic of my ongoing struggle. Alot of people here are complaining that they have microbubbles. Well i figured id chuck these two pics of my problem :( I have SO many bubbles that when my pump chops them up even worse it leads to foam nearly on the top of my water...

When i got up this morning I saw this interesting sight in my tank. Apparently one of my Zebra hermits had gotten bored with the idea of walking around the tank on its own and decided that hitching a ride on the Queen Conch was the better way to move around the tank. I believe it paid its fare...

heres a picture of one of our freshwater tanks. We have three. One os this tank, one is a community tank, an dthe last is for an electric blue crawfish. This pic is of my girlfriends "baby" This is her target puffer. This is an incredibly aggressive eating machine that had to be quickly moved to...

I think thats the key for most critters. Make sure they are well fed and they wont go after the stuff you wanna keep. Long as they arent starving they should be good inhabitants.

My two have been great. Only thing they go after is algea and food. Other than that no problems at all. And like i said the green chromis i have sleep right next to them in the rocks. There has been no aggression at all out of the crabs. Suprising, but true.

This is a picture of my emerald crab trying to bench press a queen conch. It actually succeeded in tossing it a couple inches. It hasnt killed anything even tho my chromis sleep right next to it in the rock. But its a BIG crab.. the body alone is probably quarter size at least.

My girlfriend's blue leg hermit.

hopefully this will work....

I have a 13w pc over my girlfriends Nano. It works quite well. I think there is a website online that will sell you a 13w 10k/03 actinic bulb in 13w. This is what im gonna add to our nano in the future. The light is nice and bright. We have several mushrooms and a small colony of green star...
