banshee Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 Moved Post 1 to here: My JBJ 3G arrived today much to my husband's dismay. Leak tested and repacked it. Now I just wait for Monday to take it to work! I'll be shopping for sand and LR during my lunch break. For now. I'm still figuring out what I want to do vs. what I can actually do since this will be on my desk at work. Link to comment
MetaTank Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Glad to have you on board! Wish I could have a pico at work!! Link to comment
FlCandy Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 So lucky! I want a reef tank at the office! But they want a chinchilla after the freshwater fish die..... all they do is feed, no WC no top off its sad really..... I am going to have to put some water in there tomorrow. Link to comment

I had to be the trendsetter. When I started I got a betta for my desk. Now 3 other people have bettas so I have to do something different! I help take care of all the bettas because they let them get all funky. I change my betta water every week and refuse to let him get dirty. Link to comment
banshee Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 Such a good fishie momma! Just OCD! I make my kids 'play' in the tub every night so that I don't have sticky little fingers all over me during story time! My poor dog gets a lot of baths too! Now if only I could get my hubby to bathe his stinky mutt! See? She says, "Please mom, not again!" Link to comment
Cintax Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I tried to get authorization to have an aquarium at work... apparently its not 'appropriate' to have an aquarium in a prison. :/ Link to comment

banshee Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 I tried to get authorization to have an aquarium at work... apparently its not 'appropriate' to have an aquarium in a prison. :/ I thought pets were supposed to be soothing to the prisoners or something like that. Link to comment
Cintax Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I don't know how therapeutic fish would be but it's more the case that once you let one person have something then what's stopping others now that there is a precedent. It's not a security issue since my office has no inmate contact and it's probably one of the most secure offices in the place. Link to comment
banshee Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 I wish I had no inmate contact! I feel like I work in the asylum most days! My tank is there to soothe me so I don't lose it on one of the morons I work with! Link to comment
banshee Posted March 12, 2012 Author Share Posted March 12, 2012 Here she is! not sure if I'm keeping the rock, rearranging, or starting over but at least there's something to stare at while I think about it! Link to comment
got2envy Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Yay! I am doing the same tank I wish I could have a pico at work too...knowing my co workers they would over feed Link to comment
gena Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Yay I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with this Aren't the picotopes awesome? The quality is fantastic. It's a great little tank, for sure!!!!! Oh...your dog is adorable!!!!! Love those eyes!!!! Is she a puppy or full-grown? Link to comment

It's a great little tank, for sure!!!!! Oh...your dog is adorable!!!!! Love those eyes!!!! Is she a puppy or full-grown? Thanks! I do like the tank. The silicone seal isn't perfect but it will be mostly hidden anyway so I don't care. My dog is full grown now. She was about half grown in the picture. She's a mini doxie so she's only about 6-7 pounds. Link to comment
banshee Posted March 20, 2012 Author Share Posted March 20, 2012 Decided to change up my plans. I ordered some different live rock and it should be here today. I emptied the tank, put in my sand and then refilled with fresh SW. Now I just wait for it to clear and my rock to arrive! Link to comment
BulkRate Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 What powerhead is that? Looks significantly smaller than a Hydor240 and I like the directional output...looks perfect for flow in these smaller tanks. Mind telling me what it is? Link to comment
banshee Posted March 20, 2012 Author Share Posted March 20, 2012 Hydor Pico 300. I found it at the LFS pretty cheap. Link to comment
Deckoz2302 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 My tank is there to distract me so I don't get any work done or hear the words coming out of some of the morons I work with! Ftfy Link to comment
FlCandy Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I wish I could have a Pico at work, the people there don't want fish so they are letting the ones we have suffer. I gave them extra water last week as I couldn't look at it any more. Poor fishes. Link to comment
gena Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 New rock, eh??? Cool!!!!!! Can't wait to see it Link to comment
