Couldn't help myself. Blue Jaw Trigger......he is awesome even if no clam for me

Gladfelter · Jul 12, 2013

I wish I had the chance to see your tanks Matt; I'm coming back to Knoxville the weekend of the 26th, maybe I can swing by if you have time?

no clam, no clean up crew, probably no corals. from what i've heard. i mean they may not nip but all are differnt.

Gladfelter · Jul 12, 2013

Yep. I'm on vacation that Saturday still

Gladfelter · Jul 13, 2013

There supposed to be fine with clean up crew and supposed to never touch corals. Blue jaws are supposed to be the best reef trigger. Hasnt bothered anything yet. If he does he gets to go bye bye

Rob.D · Jul 13, 2013

I think the threat to corals is that they love to move rocks around.

Gladfelter · Jul 13, 2013

True enough on that. I tried to prevent that by building in a to. Of cave systems. So far he seems to like the Aquascape.

Gladfelter · Jul 13, 2013

Me and Jett working on the tank. There's the semi final Aquascape

Looking good

When I worked at CR, we had a pair of Blue Jaw triggers. I think they were pretty good about not munching corals. It wouldn't shock me if one ate shrimp and other cleaners...like these guys have said.

So this is what I'm mounting the Sols on. It's 80/20 aluminum extrusion. Sols slide perfectly into the slots and I will hang the bar via shelf mounting. God I.need to buy some saws lol. The hack saw is taking forever.

Where did you get the aluminum?

Gladfelter · Jul 21, 2013

The company that makes it is called 80/20. They don't sell to the public though. There is a distributor here in knoxville though over off Baum drive down by Bearden hill. I got it from them. They generally don't sell to.the public, they don't have a shop. I contacted them though and the.one guy hooked me up. He said though and showed me several aquarium.stands he had designed for clients out of the stuff.

I am thinking that would be perfect to attach my heat sinks to for my other tank. You can slide them around as necessary to get the coverage you want.
