Mini-Dude Posted February 15, 2011 Author Share Posted February 15, 2011 What is TOTM? Link to comment
AFRobert568 Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 TOTM, Tank of the month. I was wondering if the tanks that are already posted follow the whole lbs of rock to water ratio. I was just interested, because I see some full tanks and some that don’t have as much rock. Link to comment
Mini-Dude Posted February 15, 2011 Author Share Posted February 15, 2011 I was planning on doing 25lbs in my JBJ 28. I dont know if thats right or not but watev. Link to comment
Mini-Dude Posted February 15, 2011 Author Share Posted February 15, 2011 Is 25lbs sufficient for this size tank? Link to comment
Telekinesis Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 All my photos are taken with a 5 year old canon rebel. I do have a nice upgraded lens which I think makes a huge difference over the stock lens that comes with the camera. Thank you all for the nice comments on my tank. In a year from now one of you will have the new TOTM. Just takes time, money and patience. And more money! The Rebel is actually what I've been looking at the most. I'm pretty much settled on it. However, after dropping $400 on the LED lighting, the Canon will probably have to wait a while. Link to comment
spiderjeru Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I'm in there. Not posting any tank shots 'til my diatom bloom is outta here! Link to comment
Mini-Dude Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 Well I think it's time to get some Pico's aboard! I have not seen any JBJ Pico owners post here and this thread is all about everything JBJ. Lets see them Pico's! Link to comment
rdahlke1105 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Is 25lbs sufficient for this size tank? Well I have 20 lbs of base rock and 5 lbs of live..course my base is slowly turning into live. I've noticed red coraline starting on my base rock. Link to comment
Mini-Dude Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 I was thinking 15lbs of dry and 10lbs of live. Link to comment

dhraakoxr Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 It's only been up for like 4 months but it's coming along. I also need to get better FTS's but that's tough with LEDs. It's a learning process! Check out the link in my sig for some macro's and other fun pictures! Thanks for viewing! Link to comment
urbaneks Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 The new tanks here are looking good. Glad to see more and more Nano Cubes popping up here. Link to comment
gena Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 NC12g. 9 days old and cycling. Can't wait to start adding livestock For those that have this tank....how do you run your heater wire, etc. out of the lid? Did you cut a hole in the lid? The hood really is crimping the wire. I've had to run tape around it to protect it. Link to comment

dhraakoxr Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 How you liking your B&W's? I want a pair for my NC28g. Funny thing about blue LEDs They make normal perc's look like B&W percs haha. So yeah, I just have a normal pair of percs and they hate each other lol. I think they're too close to each other size wise. Link to comment
Mini-Dude Posted February 17, 2011 Author Share Posted February 17, 2011 Really, I swear they looked B&W. Yeah the reason they are acting like that is cause they are the same size. Link to comment
dhraakoxr Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Really, I swear they looked B&W. Yeah the reason they are acting like that is cause they are the same size. yeah it's really annoying. I think I'm just gonna have to fish one out and get a real little one or something. Just last night the dominant one grabbed a hold of the other ones left fin and shook em' around. I was like.. honestly really.. was that necessary? Link to comment
