Fishkid2's 24 gal aquapod diary

[fishkid2]

I already have around 8 lbs right now too.

 

[clownfish11]

nice keep us posted

 

[fishkid2]

Well the lr kind of sucked. To many small pieces and not really that live. Some pieces do have some good color to them though.

 

[clownfish11]

the back wall could use a scrub, but otherwise lookn good..what fish do you plan to put in there, and any corals?

 

[caseysimp7]

i like your aquascapeng

 

[fishkid2]

Thanks
Well I was redoing this aquapod, so I still have the fish from before in a seperate 20 gal.
I know this is a little too much fish for the bioload, but I had them around for 2 yrs.
percula clown
chormis
yellow watchman
firefish
royal gramma
cleaner shrimp
Corals
pom pom xeina
giant toadstool
kenya/capnella
I'm planning on getting different colors of zoos and mushshroom corals. Maybe a purple or green plate coral and green hammer coral too.
Also getting a pistol shrimp for my watchman.
What you think?

 

[clownfish11]

i think you should get Green Banded Goby..and some cool zoos and then since ur in minnesota when the weather gets nicer we can frag...

 

[fishkid2]

I don't think I'm getting anymore fish. I think 5 fish in my 24 gal is enough.

 

[clownfish11]

no instead of one of ur fish get that one..

 

[clownfish11]

look em up there really cool

 

[fishkid2]

Please read my post again.
I'm saying I already have those fish.

 

[clownfish11]

[clownfish11]

[clownfish11]

you could add some zoo's that would look good...but thats MO, keep postn the updates

 

[fishkid2]

Cleaner crew
cleaner shrimp
1-3 peppermint shrimp
emerald crab
5 astrea sails
5 cerith snails
5 nassarias snails
2 scarlet hermits
Anything else?

 

[fishkid2]

Do you think I should add any more lr? Or just leave it as is and have room for coral growth?

 

[clownfish11]

lil more like 2-5lbs or premium cuz then youll get the algae...and add some bumble bee snails they are cool lookn i think thats gonna be my cleaner crew with more of each and 1 or 2 cleaner shrimp..

 

[fishkid2]

I guess I just break up some rock I already have and dry it out.
Have to dry it out b/c of all the pest anemones and macro algae.
Just take a little bit longer to cycle.

 

[clownfish11]

when do you plan to add ur first fish?

 

[clownfish11]

do you recommend a watchman i think there cool, but what do you think? are they hardy? eat pellets or what do they eat?
