I have a pair of snowflakes and am surprised how much personality they have, great fish. Did you drill that tank yourself? What style overflow did you do? Herbie?

I just got the aqueon pre drilled tank and the overflow is the aqueon mega flow kit. I got a deal on the tank. I was only gonna do 75 but I got the 90 for $200 cheaper lol

Thinking about putting an algae turf scrubber on this tank. Anyone know a lot about them? I've found some information but trying to get as much as possible. They seem fairly easy to make and they seem to help a lot.

Anyone?

Well just got the ats running in the running on there tank lets see how it works out

That is very cool, easy to build? What material is that?

 

[AScarbro14]

Took about an hour. 2 - 2500k lights, some 1 inch PVC, 3/4 hose, 700 gph pump, and a piece of seeing screen roughed up a little bit. I've done a lot of reading about them and have really wanted to try one. If this one works out well I'm gonna put one on my nano.

Google santamonica (I believe that's what who it was, google will know though) ats. I'm not sure if he coined the idea but was at least one of the earlies to adopt its use. That's where I've learned about them. He has threads on several forums and most are several hundred pages long

 

[AScarbro14]

I read most of my stuff from santamonica stuff lol

Looking awesome man. Other than the kole tang and the picasso what are your stocking plans?

 

[AScarbro14]

Blue dot jaw fish, diamond goby, I want some kind of schooling fish in there to that isn't aggressive or insanely priced lol

Been reading about chromis. Seems they only school to avoid predation and once safe the group will pick on the weakest until only 2-3 are left. Maybe some of the less expensive anthrax? The bartletts caught my eye on live aquaria lol

Idk a whole lot about fish so you'll probally have to help me out on finding some fish for this tank lol

 

[totion]

All I do is read about corals and fish so just let me know what to you are thinking about and I'll see what I know/can find

 

[AScarbro14]

Just see if you can find a schooling fish. I want about 4 that are reef safe and are not aggressive at all lol
