I was bored

[bosborn1]

I was bored and I thought I would throw this together. Its god awful ugly but it stirs up the current without a doubt

Great Idea do you mind if I steal it and make one for my self I like the thought of stirring up the current in the tank without to many power heads.

 

[Gary Majchrzak]

Shaken not stirred at a fraction of the price of Tunze. I like.

 

[bosborn1]

Take the idea....IMO this idea sucks. Yeah it produced a lot of flow but please pick some other pump that a Rio2500. It really sticks out in the tank. Its just temporary until I get the rest of the maxistreams working.

I see you had lots of refreshment in the background of the first picture,lol.

 

[bosborn1]

Yeah thats the cans and bottles area...Its overflowing right now. I will get to it eventually. To be honest I only had 3 beers when I made that. Thats kind of suprising sense it usaully take about 6 + to come up with stuff like that

Good observation, Ralph. To be honest, I missed that.
No wonder he used a Rio !

 

[Namyar]

Thank you I did see a really lowprofile power head that I could use

 

[bosborn1]

Come on now...Even if I was drunk I would still know better than to use a Rio!!

Time to switch from Rios and Bud.
Try Magdrives and LaBatt's.

How about Ehiems and Red Stripe...Now were talking

 

[Gary Majchrzak]

My last experience with Eheim involved a "Surface Extractor".
I wish I had some Red Stripe available when dealing with this thing!

 

[bosborn1]

I tried using that thing with my Discus tank. I gave up and used the original return strainer. Just seeing it makes me dizzy.

[Gary Majchrzak]

ahh... Discus! You seemed to know a lot about aquarium stuff. Still got em? Cobalt Blues?

 

[bosborn1]

Nope I had a pair of snow whites and a pair of marlboro reds. All my fish came from Jack Wardley. I loved them but the last move spelled an end to them.

[Gary Majchrzak]

Did you have spawning cones? Ever raise Discus fry?

 

[bosborn1]

I had them spawn a couple of time but I never removed the fry....Free live feeders. Same with most of the african cichlids I have had breed. The only fresh water fish I actively bred was the south american cichlids I had. I have raise one clutch of perc eggs but that is it for my saltwater breeding... When I started the SW hobby in '92 it was almost unheard of in central florida to have fish breed in captivity. I never looked at the SW stuff as a viable option to breed...So who know how many eggs I have given back to the circle of life



One of these days I will reestabish the Discus tank. I really miss having a planted tank. I also miss my arowwanna but I have to be relistic these days...I cant dedicate a 300 gallon for one species.

I sold one of my 75 gallon aquariums to a guy that bought it for an Arrowana back in '97. What a waste!
Why not try your hand at raising Skunk Clowns?

 

[bosborn1]

I plan on breeding those skunks...Just need to get an anenome for then to host in. a 75 gallon for a arrow...Thats funny. That thing would out grow it in a year. I had to get rid of mine because it outgrew a 240.


Scott

 

[Gary Majchrzak]

Hey... I tried to tell him about putting an Arrowana in a 75, but whatever. You know how it is.
As long as the cash was legit.
