D3monic Posted September 1, 2009 Author Share Posted September 1, 2009 I had a dream last night that Mantis shrimp had taken over my tank. There we 8 of them and they where all vicious and trying to attack me while I was trying to save the fish..talk about stressfull. Link to comment
D3monic Posted September 2, 2009 Author Share Posted September 2, 2009 I decided to ditch my traditional Kreisel design and go the BRT route. I couldnt find any decent designs anywhere so I had to use my imagination. Hopefully it works ok. I allready had one incident where the screen on the overflow clogged and cause it to overflow spilling a gallon or so on the floor. I had to drill a hole about 1" above the normal water level as a emergency overflow. I also moved my RO unit to the garage instead of under the sink. I still need to set up a holding tank for it but that will have to wait until friday when I can order a float valve. I have new filters in special thanks to one of the coolest peeps in the world and its slowly dripping into a bucket for now. Heres a few pics. Once I get some water made I will ditch the bucket and use the plastic tub so I can get a aditional 10-20gal of volume. More garage pics Rotifer cultures. RO Link to comment
Paleoreef103 Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Looks awesome. I want captive bred Mandarins! ... Bad!! Anyways, how are you feeling? The stuff with your eye clear up? Link to comment
D3monic Posted September 2, 2009 Author Share Posted September 2, 2009 I can see again thanks, My eyes still hurt but it will take a few months for the damage done to heal. I meet with my Neurologist next tuesday to go over my MRI results....hopefully the mass he had seen was just a lil tumor or something and can be hacked out. Link to comment
D3monic Posted September 3, 2009 Author Share Posted September 3, 2009 Another Mandarin spawn today on 09/02/09. I took a few videos with my wifes canon powershot. Eggs floating in plastic bottle waiting 3 days prior to release into BRT. Heres the container floating in the BRT I also had a Hermit crab larvae. I tossed them into a 2liter bottle with a airline...Its not worth setting up a kreisel and all. Link to comment
D3monic Posted September 3, 2009 Author Share Posted September 3, 2009 I put a heater in my rot culture to try and speed up reproduction. I set it to 75 and went to bed. I woke up this morning and it was 121 degrees. OOPS! I doubt it hurt anything concidering the culture never took off in the first place but still, Kind of funny. Link to comment
D3monic Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 Stopped by my LFS today to pick up a bluespot, they had one. I wasnt too impressed with it. Its colors where on the darkside. They said it was spoken for. They are ordering a few more that are scheduled to come in Wed. Ill pick one up then and maybe a few other things. They had a 10" deresa it was massive but bland brown colors. I ordered a typhoon III RO unit and im getting ready to order a microscope. Tomorrow im ordering a bunch of stuff from www.seahorsesource.com Heres a few pointless youtubes of my junk phyto cultures and rots. Giant spagetti worm Link to comment

D3monic Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 I dont think I could ever spend that much on a fish unless it was guaranteed immortal and pood gold. I would drop $100 on it probably though. Link to comment
