how much rock most of you guys got, ive got 115 in the dt and 10-15 in the sump, ive seen some specs but they do change, just a thought

 

[Hookup]

I've got about 70lbs i the DT, plus the two foam walls which are substantial. I've got about 100lbs in the sump as well.

 

[Misled]

I have about 75lbs in the DT, and will have about 5 to 10lbs of rubble in the fuge.

 

[phish guy]

i nevet weighed it but id say about 50-60lbs in DT witha about 5 in sump.

 

[Michael]

h--mmm, interesting, i was wondering if i needed more, but it seems its fine, hook has 100 pounds in the sump, well im struggling to get more than what i have already in there, still im happy im not under stocked on the rock

 

[Hookup]

Yeah, well I have the whole basement to use as sump space.. so I have much-o live-rock in the basement simply because it's there, so why not.

ooooh, nice summary list michael! i was wondering how many of us there were.

 

[chrisqueenz]

Nice list Michael, quick correction though I have a 92 not 54G.. Hopefully we can get our own forum!

 

[chrisqueenz]

I have about 60lbs in my DT, soon to be adding a bit more. Dont really to much rock in there, I prefer open space. It is definatly a challenge to create some rockwork in these types of tanks!

 

[btb72]

did gaw4fun ever post pics of his big tank? Just wondering didn't think I ever saw it.

not sure, id have to look back through the thread, you could pm him and ask if he doesnt come back on, if i get 10 mins later i will have a look

 

[kelso1980]

I have about 70lb of rock in my DT. None in my sump yet...

 

[RufRidn]

I have about 100 in the dt and 15 in the sump.

 

[Pulp Fishin]

I'm very happy this holiday my fiance & I got a new computer armoire that gives me better view/access to the 3rd side of my tank.
Here are some new pics.

Sadly over the last week I watched one of my blood shrimp die.
Things is my tank were just back to normal after a short breakout of red slime algee when he died. I hope it was a natural death and not a case of too little, too late.

 

[Hookup]

Nice looking setup! I have a cleaner shrimp about the same size as yours.. nice a beefy..

How did you solve the red-slime problem?

 

[Pulp Fishin]

Thanks Hookup,
The lights I have on there are cheepies I got on ebay for cheep but sadly they are very white/yellow for my liking.
I have 2 cleaners who are nice and big, sadly the blood shrimp that died on me reacently was quite a eye catcher himself.

As for the red slime I had was pretty bad for about 10 days and slowly has died off to almost nothing now since mid Dec. I credit changinf the RowaPhos in my phosban. Also for the first week I used Poly-Ox red slime remover from Dec 11-18th. I only used 1/4 of the recomended dose and applyed it to the areas that were the worst effected. I only used it in moderation so not to effect my inverts.

One month after I stoped using the red slime remover was when my blood shrimp died. I wonder if the poly ox made him sick or the high phosphate? then again my sexy shrimp? harlequin shrimp & cleaners are fine as well as the other smaller blood shrimp
