herranton Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I'm gonna start a 10 later this week or next week. Spring break is next week..... I will believe it when I see it Link to comment
Mini-Dude Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 Just use this one. Should I change the name and specify where the action starts? I will believe it when I see it O you will see it I promise. Link to comment
montipora Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Should I change the name and specify where the action starts? Considering your 12, people prolly aren't going to wanna see that type of action. Oh you mean of your tank, where da hell are the pics man?? You have got to have something by now, no? Pics, or GFYF haha. inb4yer Link to comment

Mini-Dude Posted March 18, 2011 Author Share Posted March 18, 2011 Op has been updated, questions/comments appreciated. Thanks Link to comment
herranton Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Op has been updated, questions/comments appreciated. Thanks Have You removed the rim yet? If not, don't do it! The glass on the standard 10 gallon is really thin and I would guess with the weight of the AC70 hanging on it, it would come apart pretty easy. The glass underneath the rim is not finished and will be sharp. You will eventually cut your entire hand off; it will fall in the tank and be eaten by the shrimp gobys. If you have taken the rim off, I would get a new 10aga at Walmart. They are only like $12 Link to comment
northstar1357 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 You are probably the only person on NR that got so many posts with no tank. And you registered with NR last month and got 2,000 posts LOLZ Way too much posts to read Link to comment

While not the everyday fish. Zebra Daetfish. Green Bandeds are really cool. i looked ito them sometime ago but just dropped the thought...now I will look into them some more....I am guessing that minimal aquascaping is in...less rock more ater volume...

bitts Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 improves the amount of swim space. allows for better flow. doesn't look like a fruit stand trying to sell rock. Link to comment

Weetabix7 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I would say start with around 10 lbs and adjust from there. Link to comment
Mini-Dude Posted March 19, 2011 Author Share Posted March 19, 2011 Ok, once my stuff from herranton comes in (mon or tues) I will get the rock and start scaping. I'm going to use the larger of the aragonite sand for substrate...how many lbs do yall recommend? Link to comment
Atomic081 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Hey Mini-dude, Great to see your starting the tank. Most people go with 1 lb of sand per gallon, So start with 10 lbs and then see if you need more. Link to comment
Mini-Dude Posted March 19, 2011 Author Share Posted March 19, 2011 Ok, I am soooooo excited to get this going but I need to take it slow Link to comment
