DaveFason Posted January 9, 2010 Author Share Posted January 9, 2010 Honestly the little guy is really easy. Just have spots so it can hide and then make sure to feed it 3-4 times a week. -Dave P.S - Just watch out for your gobies Link to comment

Most of the members there are local to me! Bye the way... I just sent Les @ WPH a PM regarding a GDM!!! One more question, as I've yet to do much of my own research... I'm assuming I need to cover the top of my tank if I get one, right? Thanks again bro! Link to comment
phases Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Just read through all 36 pages. Great set-up and reefing mantra. I can't wait to see the upgrade take shape. Link to comment

Reminds me of when I was driving the back roads of SC with my '77 Jeep CJ5. Started to smell something a little "off." Next thing I know, BANG, snap, sputter, screeching halt. One of the connecting rods in the engine snapped, sheared off one of the piston heads, shot it through the bottom of the engine block and through the oil pan. Let's just say I was in high school at the time and I'm still trying to pay my parents back for the replacement engine It was kind of fun working with my dad on replacing the engine ourselves but I wouldn't want to do it now. Luckily you have an amazing tank right now....sit back and enjoy that bad boy. Just take the extra time for reading and scheming for that masterpiece. Sorry to hear of your troubles. -Adam Link to comment

DaveFason Posted January 12, 2010 Author Share Posted January 12, 2010 Thanks everyone. I should have my ozone reactor built this weekend or next so thats exciting. After that I really want to try and get started on an LED build. I may see if I can get my girlfriend to shoot a video while I'm feeding the eel for you guys. He will come way out when its hungry saying " Yo fool feed me! ". -Dave Link to comment
