Sunstar Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I am actually gonna be going through and pitching a bunch of things that are broken down - I've been using for parts. I am gonna use my DIY lamp for the frag tank. I may add cyan/lime and violets to the current blue/white channels 2 Quote Link to comment

I am gonna use my DIY lamp for the frag tank. I may add cyan/lime and violets to the current blue/white channels That's not a bad idea. I think if I were to leave all three set up I'd just get a par bulb for the 3rd. I used to have one over the 3 gal and it worked pretty well overall. Maybe you can post some things for sale in the classifieds 1 Quote Link to comment

I don't think I have much left intact. some of my old T8 canopies have been cut up and used for my DIY lamp. I tend to re-purpose stuff a lot. I might keep the ballasts and fittings for the fluorescents. 1 Quote Link to comment
Merthynia Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 Almost everything has been moved into the IM10 now. Just have to break up the rock a bit in a pleasing manner, move the wrasse over, and try to find the porcelain crab in all the tiny nooks. 2 Quote Link to comment

gulfsurfer101 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Scaping a new tank is always the most frustrating thing about setting up a new tank. 1 Quote Link to comment
Merthynia Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 Scaping a new tank is always the most frustrating thing about setting up a new tank. It really is. I managed to snap my big screwdriver while attempting to shape the rock. I ended up having to go downstairs and smash it against the concrete to break it up. I may end up taking it out and trying to find a rock I like somewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment

I once used a katana from the flea market to snap a rock in half lol! Completely fuct that katana up lol! The thing snapped and sent the blade flying back in the air right past my face!

Merthynia Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 Fixed the scape up a bit, and glued some frags down. Zest was checking out the loose frags. And being awfully cute Tons more active now with more space to swim! Need to find a spot for the duncan to move into and continue gluing down frags. 5 Quote Link to comment
