_Mitch_ Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 So right now I'm uploading all the pictures and videos from my trip onto my computer. It might take a while but I'll try to get them on youtube and here soon. In other news, the stunner strip and other things I ordered are coming today! I'll post pictures when they're here.

_Mitch_ Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 Great job ecoxotic... selling the stunner strip without the transformer so I can't plug it in. #######s... Anyone know where I can get a 24v transformer? Would home depot sell it? Link to comment
_Mitch_ Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 Radio Shack Alright, I guess I'll have to go tomorrow. I wish this was advertised, though. Link to comment
AnthonyPf Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 *Some (most) parts sold separately Link to comment
_Mitch_ Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 *Some (most) parts sold separately Yea, really. I have a bunch of spare transformers in the basement. The manual says it needs to be plugged into an AC 120v transformer that is 24v. I plugged it into an AC 120v one with an output of DC 12v. The light was pretty dim. Do I need to get a transformer that puts out 24v DC? Link to comment
_Mitch_ Posted August 20, 2011 Author Share Posted August 20, 2011 The first video of many from my trip: Details in the video description. Please like the video, and subscribe if you'd like! Link to comment

_Mitch_ Posted August 20, 2011 Author Share Posted August 20, 2011 great looking tank mitch. how are you liking the eheim with surface skimmer? i'm looking for ideas to battle surface scum in my 60p. thanks! I love the surface skimmer... It gets rid of all the surface scum and leaves the surface glassy and clean. Its also perfectly quiet. I'd highly recommend it! Mitch - that sux's / sorry to hear about your firefish. Yea I'm really pissed about it. I guess its sort of my fault because I didn't build a cover. It was also a really bold firefish too, and not to mention pretty friggin' expensive. Link to comment

_Mitch_ Posted August 21, 2011 Author Share Posted August 21, 2011 Okay, so I'm trying to teach my fish a lesson. They should know by now that they shouldn't jump out of the tank but since they seem to neglect this fact I'm going to teach them. Now here's a picture I'm going to show them: Now I hear fish don't have great memories so I'm going to need to do something a little more drastic to get the message across: Yea, that's right... I taped the damn f**ker to the front of the tank so that the other fish can see what will happen to them if they jump. Let me know if you guys think this is a good approach to teaching my fish.

RouX Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 LMAO, Nice one. Perhaps I should try that with my snails. My last two did a little carpet surfing. Link to comment

Everything is looking nice! Keep it up! Thanks! It's a True Percula... my favorite species of clownfish. After seeing them in the Solomon Islands (check out my video) I had to get one for the tank.

_Mitch_ Posted August 22, 2011 Author Share Posted August 22, 2011 I had to order the transformer for the Stunner Strip online since they didn't have it at both Radio Shack or Home Depot. Oh well... PS: New sig! Link to comment
