Oh ok. Would it work tough? I’ve seen tons of people do it
No I’m using rubble because it’s cheaper than live rock
It’s just a chamber for a media basket and a chamber for a return pump and heater.
The people on that show are awful. They put the spectacle of their ridiculous tanks above the well-being of the fish. I know there are proponents of the concept of an instant cycle, and while I’m not sure I’m convinced of (converting ammonia is only part of the cycling process, IMO), putting 15 fish in an hours old aquarium with only some bottled bacteria and no live rock is just irresponsible and unethical, and they do this for every aquarium they set up (I know people do this for trade shows, but they only leave it up for a couple days and do massive water changes if need be). I also think the show gives people a really unrealistic view of the hobby.
You know, there are comments that you make here and there that really make me question whether you should have animals in your care. Intentionally terrorizing a fish isn’t cool, regardless of whether it’s for ‘educational purposes’ (and what does that even mean? Why does anybody need to see a puffer puff up?). Not cool.
Yes
Me
I mean like if you caught one while fishing. Of course don’t grab one and puff it but it’s basically gaeunteed to puff if you catch one
