Euphyllia Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Those are my first choices of things to add to a tank other than clowns and a jawfish... I miss my pompoms. I've always wanted a Mandarin. They offer Mandarin at my school because about 50% of the people at my school are Asian and 50% of them speak minor to fluent Asian dialects. Some girl that I know taught me how to say penis in Chinese... Well at least that's what she said it was. It was a rather long single word, if it was a single word, because it was like "taI chaow PU tun yen"... I think it may have been a phrase that would make me look stupid to Chinese people. I KNOW HOW TO SAY GRAPE IN CHINESE! It's pronounced "POO-TOW"... I guess like "PU tao" or something... Maybe. They had "learn Chinese" shizz on the reverse side of your fortune in the fortune cookie that came with your Chinese meal on Thursdays at my middle school way back when. Ah, those were the days! There was a rager dude that sat about 20ft away from my little "lunch posse" and he would just drink a coke for lunch. He never ate anything. Maybe he had some sort of eating disorder? IDK but he would always get in fights and it was hilarious to watch. Luckily he went to a different high school than I. I saw him walking home one day and he looked really angry so I started laughing and he gave me an angry look. I know I shouldn't have laughed, but he was always mean to me in middle school. He would swear at me and stuff. He would always have to talk to the principal, and since I was the "office TA" I got to sit in a special chair near the secretaries and I heard all the gossip. The principal left his door open when he talked to people, so I knew everything that was happening and the story from all sides. Anyway, they couldn't punish the dude because he was mentally ill so he always got off the hook and he kept on being mean to people. They couldn't even give him lunch detention because of his medical records and stuff. Haha, there was one girl that brought marijuana to school and the principal had to talk to her to tell her it wasn't okay. She just brought it for show-and-tell, so it's not like she was going to steal Miley Cyrus's bong and smoke it. Link to comment

Squared Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 but all you need is to get a light and put some cheato in the chambers? that could work...or an in-tank media holder? Link to comment
Euphyllia Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Go to Home Depot and get a cheap fluorescent bulb for $3 and a fixture for $15. That's how I grow my chaeto. Just bolted the fixture into the wall and done. Link to comment
altolamprologus Posted November 2, 2011 Author Share Posted November 2, 2011 but all you need is to get a light and put some cheato in the chambers? that could work...or an in-tank media holder? I was thinking of that, but if I'm going to put out the effort to make a fuge I want to do it as big as possible and gut the stand to have a 10 gal fuge or something like that. I don't need the nutrient removal (highest my nitrate has been in months is .5 ppm) I just need more pods Go to Home Depot and get a cheap fluorescent bulb for $3 and a fixture for $15. That's how I grow my chaeto. Just bolted the fixture into the wall and done. I'm renting, so no bolting stuff to walls Link to comment
