My son suggests that we catch one and display its skeleton as a warning to others. He's 6.

Great feedback. An in tank heater it is for me. Fortunately I purchased one from Dr. Tim last month.

Hey Mark, Thanks for the offer. I've got a neighbor with a few of them I'll borrow this weekend.

No worries :) Like the Yorkshire on the glass, almost went with a Nantucket myself till I found a decent one at Home Goods that I couldn't pass up. Is that the ebay $19 bulb? Curious how it'll work.

Nice. Have to make it a point to get there this winter.

Welcome aboard! I'm the brains and good looks of the outfit.

My initial thought was, 'Why doesn't Paul just hire supermodels to move the tank for him'? So, I went to Google, and typed in, 'Supermodels lifting things'. I got this... May be best to move it yourself. Fabio probably doesn't want to chip his nails, they do look quite spectacular. Wish I...

Anyone here one, or does anyone know one? Got some squirrels in the attic.

Question... Instead of having a heater in tank is is a consideration in a tank this small to use one of those reptile pads under it?

Here's two lights I was considering... Amazon.com : LED Aquarium Lights Asta 20 Dimmable Planted Tank Lights 6500K Clamp Clip for Plant Freshwater Aquarium Fish Tank (Planted Version) : Pet Supplies Amazon.com : Galaxyhydro 12W Aquarium LED Light Optimized Spectrum Coral Light for Coral, Algae...

Ha! found this at Marshalls for $15. Was tempted to go creative, but would be a pain to clean. Instead, I went a bit more traditional, 2.5g, with a glass top to help prevent evap. The spout sits about 2" above the base so I'm hoping to go with a sandbed. Ordered a 'food grade' plastic...

SO, THE BUILD BEGINS! Starting with the container. Its a 2.5g from Home Goods ($15) with a food grade plastic spigot ($3). I found a small, round, plastic grate piece in my junk box as well as some rigid plastic tubing. I cut a notch in the tubing to accomodate that nipple pice on the...

Forum being developed now. Hope to have an unveiling Thursday if all goes to plan. There will be 'post your builds'.

Nice work. As JR said, Poseidon has a space reserved for you in the Elysium Fields. :encouragement: Also, as much as I let things happen, I've had 2 fish in the past that were so damaged that I had to euthanize. I used 100% clove oil. Place fish in a smallish (1/2 - 1 gal container) and add 4-8...

INSTRUCTIONS FOR POSTING YOUR BUILD Go back out to the Drink Tank Challenge (pico) forum Post a new thread and title it DTC Build - Your Name. For example, DTC Build - Mark_C If anyone creates a thread actually named DTC Build - Your Name you will be excluded from the contest and NJRC...

As stated in the rules, livestock more complex than coral is an option. This forum is for discussion involving your choices. Obviously we don't recommend fish in such a small system, but still want to hear thoughts and advice (this IS NOT a bashing forum). If you're going to stock, what are you...

Let there be life! Are you playing it safe with softies or are you going to try for SPS? Share your thoughts and experiences Reply to this thread with all coral related questions, discussions, and links.

A pump or powerhead is a requirement to the tank. This forum is for discussion involving our choices. Are you going airpump or are you going to try a small powerhead? What's your rationale? Where did you get it? Cost? Reply to this thread with all pump and powerhead related questions...
