All part of a new tank.. currently the green micro algae has a grip on mine and diatoms in the big tank. Mexican turbos should eat the hair algae i think most snails and hermits don't touch cyano
Instead of polluting the forum with dumb questions..
I'm Assuming by the included picture that I am missing some sort of apparatus or mounting Device for these waterproof endcaps. If not could someone let me know how to mount them?
Thanks Dave. The tank is fallow for the moment because if i put something in there and try to put 200+ lbs of Rock in then I'm sure there will be casualties. the tank is 30" deep so i didn't know what the effective range for these lights were. I'll make something up and mount them a little...
OK i need some guidance ladies and gents.. I'm going to run my 6ft VHO's for a little while while the tank runs mostly fallow and i get other stuff in.. How high should i be mounting my tubes from the surface of the water. These will be inside a canopy that is as wide and long as the tank and...
Thank you very much Steve and it was nice meeting most of you.. sorry we couldn't stay long we just got home a little after 8pm (looong drive).. Thanks to Mark (m_kerrane) as well for the frags even though i didn't expect any payment..

PC Microscope.. bit it's $149 http://www.amazon.com/Prime-Entertainment-QX5-QX-5-Microscope/dp/B0002HLKI2 I'll look and see if i can find the old microscope we used to have as well.

It's been a few months and the tank has been running for a month or so with limited lighting. I just (half-a**ed) put the canopy back together and on the tank. There is 240lbs of sand in the tank along with 2 pieces of lace rock. I threw a couple kenya frags that fell off the main tree in there...
Oh yes.. while they may stand being in larger groups maybe 10 or so they are somewhat territorial and there will be battles.. the loser/dead shrimp will then be lunch for all the scavengers including the peppermints themselves.
