I just finished this one and like all the others, this is my favorite and the most difficult to build. The base is a telephone box from 1940. The vintage radio tuner on the right turns on the lights in the glass. The light on top has it's own switch. The "tube" on top has a red LED in it to...

I am very excited about this one, about half finished. This picture doesn't yet have the lights on it but it will have three. I found this phone box Circa 1940 on Etsy. I actually bought three different ones and will get some more. I have almost all of the parts and will finish it this week. The...

Today as I was feeding the fish, this guy, the stripped wrasse got so excited, he jumped out of the tank, hit me in the nose and fell on the floor. Then as I was trying to catch him he slid under the couch. I moved the couch and shoved him into a plastic container, but before I threw him back...

We as aquarists normally feed our fish something that we can buy commercially. We normally buy some food that has a nice picture of a healthy, colorful fish on the package. I also use some commercially available food but besides that I feed something else at every meal. Most commercial frozen...

Thank you. :D

Thanks, it's still going and so am I :D

I took another video that shows the four new Anthius.

I went back to the store last night and bought the two remaining Queen Anthius. They were eating new born brine in their acclimating container and as soon as I put them in, 15 minutes later, they were all hanging out together and telling stories about their time in the store.

Thanks Arrg. Today I will be working on my boat outdrives but all the while I am waiting for an inspiration for the next steam punk idea to hit me in the head. :stupid: I can't start it until I know exactly what it is supposed to look like :rolleyes:

My new Anthius. If I have time I will go back and get the remaining 3 at the store. (Andy, they are different from my other one.) Here is a lousy video I just took https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tC33ZWfZqLY&feature=youtu.be

I think I could do that. But once you figure it out, wouldn't it be mundane to have those other ways to do it.

For most of these I purposely rusted the new pipes by first washing them to remove the oil, then I brushed on a mixture of hydrogen peroxide, vinegar and salt. That combination starts to rust metal immediately. After a while, like 2 hours, I dry them with a heat gun and spray them with a clear...

Yes, it's a feeder. That device is why my mandarins, pipefish, scooter bleenies and ruby red dragonettes all spawn. I wrote an article about it on Salt water Smarts, in my book and other places but I am not sure If I am allowed to link that here. But it is basically a container with a tube to...

Thanks, I was going for seriously awesome but sometimes come up with detritus. :confused: I am trying to design the next one, but so far I got nothing. :huh:

I added a couple of queen anthius a couple of days ago to keep my only one company. I can't say yet if they get along because I think they are different types of anthius. My old one has a yellow stripe under his dorsal and the new ones are all purple. I may airbrush them to see if they hang out...

I am very proud of this one. I just finished it. It has a long thin bulb and you turn it on by pulling down on the lead ball.

My tank doesn't seem to have suffered any damage to losing 5 gallons of water and me adding 5 gallons of cold, fresh water. The fish didn't even look up from their texting. I cleaned the glass so I could see them and they know I am home even though I know they like the Supermodel who feeds...

They harvest fat from your body using liposuction. Then they separate the stem cells from that and do some sort of magic that I don't quite understand. In 4 hours they infuse the stem cells back into you and also inject some up your nose and in any areas that you are having problems with like...

Yes we do.
