Jamie Posted April 8, 2010 Author Share Posted April 8, 2010 all you need is a big pump and some pvc! Some sort of intake filter would probably be good, too I don't think you want to be blending up the wildlife. On the plus side - fish smoothie for your livestock! Link to comment
Jacobnano Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Cod smoothie would be nice. I am thinking about one that could be permanent though, like a large glass aquarium with a flow through in it, sitting on the back where it gets sunlight. That would be pretty cool. Link to comment
Jamie Posted April 9, 2010 Author Share Posted April 9, 2010 Pretty cool indeed. Do it. Link to comment
Hero Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Claremont is only about 50 minutes from the coast (Newport Beach, Laguna Beach), and they have some great tidepools there. I live in San Diego, but I know a lot about California animals and collecting laws, so let me know if you want some help setting up a cold water tank when you get here. Newport Beach is a nice place. If you go kayaking in the bay you can find navanax and bubble shells. On the ocean side are all kinds of hermits and regular crabs. I love Newport . Link to comment
Jamie Posted April 21, 2010 Author Share Posted April 21, 2010 Sounds awesome! And, just in case you guys were worried that I had completely lost it and was actually getting rid of my coldwater stuff, I present to you, my new downsized cw tank! It's now a 5.5 aga (no fts at the moment, sorries.) mini-jim (Jim himself now lives in Maryland) xantho epiactis full of mysis Downgrading means I should be able to get a few more months out of my chiller. yay!

Well, what do you know? It's not the one you mentioned, but you sent me on a bit of search, and here it is! I've even been this website before, and I didn't realize this was it. Epiactis ritteri it is. http://www.wallawalla.edu/academics/depart...is_ritteri.html Link to comment

Jamie Posted May 3, 2010 Author Share Posted May 3, 2010 Well, they're pretty similar - same genus. Link to comment
Jacobnano Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Oh well.... So how is everything doing? It is all still spread out between tanks right? Link to comment
dshnarw Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 dshnarw nem (what did we decide this was?) we havent... something from west africa. Link to comment
Jamie Posted May 3, 2010 Author Share Posted May 3, 2010 Oh well.... So how is everything doing? It is all still spread out between tanks right? Everything is now consolidated into this one tank. (it's a 5.5. sorry I still haven't gotten around to that fts). The 16 gallon was basically just holding jim, some big rocks, and a few anemones. All the nems were moved to this tank, the big rocks were thrown into the woods, and jim sent to live with dshnarw, so no more big tank. we havent... something from west africa. Ah, I remember now. I feel like we should invent a name - Actinia hawkinsii? Link to comment
dshnarw Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Actinia hawkinsii? that would be pretty darned awesome Link to comment
Jamie Posted May 5, 2010 Author Share Posted May 5, 2010 You should send a picture to whoever figures out that sort of thing. It could be new, who knows? Link to comment
