Would you still use acrylic rods in an arch with it?Many sticks of this stuff. I did the scape slowly so these sticks worked well as i didnt have to mix anything each time when i worked on the tank.
The acrylic tube which is my overflow makes the structure stable. The cement is merely used to hold the small pieces of dry rock to the acrylic overflow in my design. If you want to build an arch without an acrylic base, i dont think using the Instant Ocean Holdfast is the best way to get there.
Thanks for following along! I must say that this grow out went surprisingly relatively easy this time. (Knock on wood) Consistent standard practise and patience will get you there.
You can’t buy threadfins if shipped to you. I have 90% success rate when I pick them up from BluezooAquatics and without qt, then go directly into my display. The threadfins can have ich, but normally very mild and then mine showed resistance. These are the same threadfins I started the tank with. When I had them shipped to me in the past I would have 10% success rate if not less. I stopped purchasing them because I knew I would be the reason for their demise.
Im planning a planted freshwater amazon river themed aquascape with this tank... first time with freshwater. But i need a challenge.
You were right!!! This is great! Used it on a Tonga structure recently.Many sticks of this stuff. I did the scape slowly so these sticks worked well as i didnt have to mix anything each time when i worked on the tank.
Hey... thanks for checking in! keeping me honest. Unfortunately all my colonies perished while being held in my temporary tank. Saving them would have come with a lot of effort that I couldnt afford as the temporary tank is in my office at work. All the fish are still thriving, so thats a plus... and my rescue Golden! My new tank (220?) sits empty next to the old tank (95). Hopefully i can start the build out this winter.
oh dude thats heartbreaking, ill be following along though zero doubt you cant replicate the beauty you had before. Adorable pup also, im also a rescue dadHey... thanks for checking in! keeping me honest. Unfortunately all my colonies perished while being held in my temporary tank.
