Solved the noise problem i used a rubbermaid cerial box as a baffle around the drain into the fuge and it also killed all the micro bubbles that were gettin sent to the display.

That looks amazing. How long has it been running?

DIY coke bottle skimmer??????? Photos and description please!

 

Im gonna make a how to thread for the skimmer with pictures i just made it uesterday but it pulled some green tea overnight. This tank has been running a few months but alot of this stuff was in a ten gallon bate bottom for about a year.

I finally got a picture of my fire shrimp! I put him in over a month ago, thought he was dead untill he attacked my hand the other day lol. Talk about being suprised. Well i snapped a quick pick when he came out to feed. Sorry for the quality he doesnt give me much to work with.

Thank you i need to replace the picture of the leathers. I had just added the devils hand and it lost its color and was shedding. I didnt know it was gonna turn as bright blue as it is now!

Thank you everyone ... im surprised everyone likes the bubble so much i traded a mandarin dragonette with a local reefer for that bubble, the brown frogspawn, and a clump of cheato. I think i made out like a bandit.

 

Ive been thinkin about swapping the cardinal for a pygmi angel. The cardinal only comes out at night. And also i want a blue fish. But my last blue damsel was a butt head. What do yall think?

Isnt that a damsel? Wouldnt it be a butt head like all damsels?

Chromis are generally much more peaceful, but they have no personality.

 

My tank is full of butt heads. :lol:

I really want another yellow tail blue damsel but i dont want a bunch of nipped fins. I dont care if its a beginer fish i love its color and activity they are just mean little turds. that was my first fish and it bullied a coral beauty to death.

 

The pygmi really doesnt have the same blue that the damsel does

They are pretty, I have a Blue and Gold Damsel that's the same colors as the ytd. It's a longer body and he acts a lot like a wrasse. Damsels are some of the best fish out there, just not that much for nano tanks.

Honestly looking at the blue damsels in the lfs is what made me start a saltwater. And to think my fish obsession started only a little over two years ago with a betta bowl.
