    75 gallons 25 years later

    My heads are cheapos and aren't direct- more sideways, which is better for me- I don't have any sps and don't need high flow- just good movement- my gsp, kenya, torch and hammers give me a great idea about how good the flow is

    75 gallons 25 years later

    I have 2 in tank sumps that move about 500gph each + 3 heads in tank, so I have enough movement without too much flow

    75 gallons 25 years later

    You only used 65#'s of rock? I must have used 120 in my 75- but I'm guilty of that- more/ too much rock - I had plenty from my past life- so I keep finding places for it- tank looks great BTW

    Jawfish

    Got the pearly jawfish and caged it for the first day- with eggcrarte and some small mesh to keep it in for the first part of the day, later took the mesh out to keep the curious larger fish out and give it a safe place- the striped banded goby and wrasse fit through lol- took the crate away...

    My poor wrasse!

    Sorry for your loss, I don't have a lid on my 75 with a melanurus, just wondering, was your wrasse harassed at all- I lost a coris because a pink damsel would chase it around the tank

    Amphipods

    So, I tried several methods of harvesting the pods from the huge piece of blue ridge coral in the 40, to no avail- when I turn on the lights there are tons all over it, so I just went ahead and took the coral and put in the 75 for the night- there were a dozen or so adults that escaped in the...

    Jawfish

    Thinking about trying one again. I rehomed the pink spot goby that drove the last to suicide. All of my current fish get along. Don't think the yellow watchman will be a problem- maybe the damsels? It's a 75g tank- any help/ suggestions appreciated

    Underwater putty/epoxy

    I'm finally liking my scape and the positions for much of my corals. I have an emerald crab ( which I'd rehome in an instant if I could catch it) and some hermits that knock things over. So what's a good epoxy/putty I can use under water to cement things up

    Yellow Watchman and Diamond gobies

    I currently have a yellow watchman with no pistol shrimp. Am thinking about adding a diamond watchman- I had a pink spot that harassed the yellow and rehomed it. I also have a banded sleeper goby- any problems anyone foresee with the three of them in a 75g

    WTT Landscape Design Services for Frags etc

    I own a landscape design/ development ( and construction) company for 40+ years and now am semi retired. You or your gardener can do the work- most people just don't know where to start ( Home Depot/ Lowes- good prices, but no experts ) Deer problems, shade gardens, natives re-claiming an...

    Anyone know why kind of bivalve this is? It just showed up in my tank over the last week

    So the question remains- do you keep it, or toss it. I don't know what I'd do- I like different stuff- sometimes I take chances- I got a couple of differnt kinds of sponges- pineapples are fine the 'roots' are a pain- I had/ maybe still have a nudibanch of some kind , and recently found a...
