Careful with the shrimp. I had ghost shrimp and then I added the colorful ones later which was a bad idea. One or the other but not both. The ghosts will help with cleaning the gravel but if they ever get a taste of blood, ie kill and eat one of your fish, they'll never stop doing it. I...
It intrigued me back in the day also, I thought it was a pretty neat idea. But for me it was also budget friendly to some extent. Really good SQ car amplifiers are a lot cheaper than SQ home stereo amps. $2-$3Kish for say a McIntosh home amp or something similar...I paid $250 for the Diamond...
Have you ever looked at DIY sonotube subwoofers? I thought about doing a pair of those but I just didn't have the space...I also considered a loaded horn enclosure that you lay on its side and it doubles as a coffee table but again I didn't quite have the space. My living room is long and...
Thanks!!!
The sub is a factory powered unit...I think it's a Cerwin Vega. Now you've got me thinking, lol...I don't remember the brand! I will look at it tomorrow and see! One thing I do remember is it has preouts so I can actually buy another one and daisy chain it but I think two 15"...
I set that up bc I love music but I also wanted that theater sound for movies like that. It doesn't bother me that it's stereo sound instead of 7.1 or whatever the newest version is.
I used 12V power supplies, you can see the on the left of the middle shelf. I think people use these for HAM...
My cave used to be the living room...until my son came along. Now the room is always messy and I never get to listen to music or watch movies there...had to put a tv in the bedroom lol.
I built all the speakers, I run car stereo amps with dedicated power supplies and a 15" downfiring powered...
That's awesome, I appreciate the offer! Yeah, I'm not a fan of the egg crate. I had to double it since the gobies are known to jump...have been planning to change it to a screen eventually.
Question. When I started this tank, the lady told me the clowns and the goby would be fine in this...
Aww that sucks! I really wanted one of those Mandarins but I know I can't do it with just a 10G.
Here's the light...it does have blue LEDs to simulate night but I know that's not really important.
I dont know much about this light lol. Amazon special. If i say 12K LED, does that sound right? I was taking a fairly minimalist approach with this tank so this light should have been sufficient without breaking the bank from what I've researched.
Yes, I bought live rock and the pre-mix from a saltwater only store. 9lbs of live rock. My brother had the live sand already, he's had saltwater tanks for a few years. I used the cycled water that they used to cover the rock, I only needed 4 gallons of pre-mix to fill the tank the rest of the...
Good to know! I was figuring on a couple of weeks for a bubbletip, I didn't know I needed to let it mature for several months. I'm still learning as I go but I've been wanting to do this for several years lol...
I've seen the leather, I didn't know the clowns would take to it, which is why I...
Time for a bump.
Finally took the plunge, so to speak. Started up a 10 gallon this week. Just added the fish today. A pair of misbars and a yellow watchman. I'll add an anemone and some shrimp later and I think that's about it.
I'd love something bigger but I also know this is about as...
