HarryPotter Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 There's been a few people here using that Jebao.....think results have been decent. For that price.....I'd try it. Amazon does offer a 30 day return period if I don't like it. What would be the "next level" in terms of quality? Vertex? Bubble Magnus? Eshopps? Link to comment
HarryPotter Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 Wow! Clams are SO HAPPY today! I think it's since I accidentally spilled like half a cup of marine snow into the tank yesterday lol And a full tank shot Link to comment
HarryPotter Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 How open is TOO open? I am a little concerned that the gold maxima's (left) output is really big. You can see its internals and everything Link to comment
thecoralbeauty Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 bigger clams tend to just open more.. it doesn't look like gaping to me (which is more like 0 shaped and wide)- but google search for images of clams that are exhibiting the "gaping" stress behavior (make sure safe search is on, haha) and compare with what you're seeing.

I forgot safe search. Eyes slowly withering. Internals becoming inside out. Bile rising. ____________________________ Hmm I guess its not gaping, just really happy with my accidental overdose of PhytoPlankton Link to comment
Addinali Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 What do you think? http://www.amazon.com/Jebao-Programmable-Auto-Dosing-Pump/dp/B00LZUZD74 Only $80 and free shipping! http://www.amazon.com/Jebao-Programmable-Auto-Dosing-Pump/dp/B00LZUZD74 The jebao are really good for there price but from what I have read you tell it to dose 1ml for the day it might dose 1.10ml instead there accuracy is not 100% compared to other options out there so you will have to work with to figure out how much it is actually dosing. If you can live with that then its a great dosing pump.Also wholesale they are $65 for 1-5. 5-25 is $60 and 25-100 is $50 so $80 shipped is a dang good price. Link to comment

My question is if I have a ~$200 budget, which doser would be the best long term investment? Im talking most hours on the pumps, easy to program, etc. Link to comment

I'm planning on utilizing the stock B-Ionic containers, and am currently making a Velcro mount so there is no chance of them falling over in the stand. Exciting! Link to comment

HarryPotter Posted June 6, 2015 Author Share Posted June 6, 2015 What type of clam is this? A squamosa? Didn't look like the others, but is unbelievable. Just wow. Check out the purple accents! I paid more for the "ultra" large clam, but it's so worth it. Link to comment
lilmatty5dimes Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 dang i'm clam envious right now. lol i would start looking up care for that carpet. they can be pretty picky in captive. everything looks good. great pick up on the doser. my only thing is what happens when you need a third pump for something?

Later on it turned out that one of the pumps needed "a little part" that sounded too sketchy for me. No doser for Harry Thanks! I will begin my carpet research now lol. My clowns are darting in and out of the carpet. I believe they are building up a tolerance to the stings? Link to comment
HarryPotter Posted June 6, 2015 Author Share Posted June 6, 2015 Is there anything specific about carpet anemone CARE TAKING? Online I can't find anything besides clean water and the (obvious) occasional feeding Link to comment

No doser for Harry Thanks! I will begin my carpet research now lol. My clowns are darting in and out of the carpet. I believe they are building up a tolerance to the stings? That's probably for the better. Sounds like a great deal but that part is probably $50. I would look at the marine magic or marine color. Both have a ton of good reviews and about $100. So the extra $100 can be for buying 2 clams and shipping up north a few counties. LolReefcentral has a pretty good section about carpets. I would look there. Was it from a hobbyist tank or freshly shipped in? That's pretty sweet your clowns are already in the carpet. Let see some pics. Lol Is there anything specific about carpet anemone CARE TAKING? Online I can't find anything besides clean water and the (obvious) occasional feeding Do you know what kind of carpet if is? I know of gigs but can't think of the other one. Link to comment

I was not aware there are multiple types. It appears bright green when "Happy" (Undisturbed) and darker green/purpleish when bothered. Other than that, I just know that the clowns are VERY mixed about this addition. This is fresh from Vietnam, arrived yesterday. I made sure it was clean and nothing was on the foot before introducing it. Link to comment
HarryPotter Posted June 6, 2015 Author Share Posted June 6, 2015 Can someone Ident the carpet Anemone? It is from Vietnam Link to comment
HarryPotter Posted June 6, 2015 Author Share Posted June 6, 2015 I believe it is a Haddoni Carpet Anemone. Cool! Its already attached and the tentacles are sticky and the mouth closed. Good signs! Link to comment
Alex B Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Possibly Stichodactyla haddoni on your nem. Keep a close eye on that nem. Your tank is very young for it, and a little on the small side. They produce alot of waste and can dirty up water quickly. The mouth appears to look a little open, but not horrible. Keep a eye on the mouth. Link to comment

Keep a eye on the mouth. The mouth is closed now, that picture was just after putting it into the tank. (manhandling it) Happy its a Haddoni- apparently they are easier to keep, and may host the Percs Link to comment
