Jimbo662 Posted November 15, 2016 Author Share Posted November 15, 2016 Made a few little changes thanks to Keith (Rocks Reef) for helping me make some room on the sand! 'm still working on placing everything that's sitting around on the rocks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBK3OMMsj0w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo662 Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 Picked up an amazing blasto at aqua farms yesterday. I've never seen a translucent blasto before. First pic done in RAW format to see how it looks on the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First pic done in RAW format to see how it looks on the forum. Is it perhaps slightly bleached? Looks like it'll darken into a red blasto eventually once it regains color? I'm just shooting in the dark here so feel free to ignore me, I only know colorful sticks these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo662 Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 If this is bleaching it better stay that way!!!!! I've never actually seen what a blasto looks like when it's bleached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo662 Posted January 24, 2017 Author Share Posted January 24, 2017 Several weeks ago I installed an CO2 scrubber to try to help raise / maintain a slightly higher PH. While it worked one down side was the air intake into the skimmer was reduced so it began running much wetter than I like. I took it offline while trying to come up with a solution. This morning I pulled out an old air pump and hooked it up to the air intake of the canister. My PH had been dropping all morning and I could see immediately where it leveled off. The best part is the skimmer has continued to run exactly as I had it set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im about to pull the trigger on their 150g I think they're great. This is the 2nd one I've had. Yeah, I've been eyeing the 150 also for when I finally end up back in a house. The only downside and it's small in the scheme of things is the plumbing they include. On both of my tanks I've tossed theirs and did my own. They use a thin walled pvc and plastic hose.

+BobcatReefer Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 I know you mentioned the stand quality earlier in the thread as well Jimbo...if you had to do it all over again, would you go with just the tank and do the rest yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo662 Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 The stands are your typical mdf stands. I think for a bigger tank I'd probably go with a custom stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diesel3443 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Great to hear. Yea, I would be ordering the tank only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo662 Posted March 23, 2017 Author Share Posted March 23, 2017 Time for a change. I figured since I was going to be changing the focus of the tank it needed some changes under the hood. Out with the old and in with the new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
