As soon as i get the message on DIBS that my form to be a breeder was checked, i will put a journel on DIBS also.
This journel is going to be for a 10 gallon tank. It's going to be a tank to breed and study micro brittle stars, or Ophia #3.
I have
live rock and live sand already in there. I'm gonna get a small video of the tank soon.
I will be getting a small heater in there. I still need to read a bit and see if i need to get a small filter or not.
...quick question, are ghost shrimp salt tolerant? like can i put some shrimp from my 'community' tank into the new tank or will they die from the salt? the reason i said community with the ' around it is because it's just guppies, but there with kind of a community of inverts.
For a couple reasons, i may not be able to get the stars for a bit.
I know some of you are thinking i need to let the tank cycle, but i used live
Sand, and
live rock, and half, to two thirds, of the water in the tank
Has been setting in the tub with
live rock and lighting and stuff
i will be testing the water and all but the cycling shouldn't take as long as it would if i had a 20 gallon tank with live sand and
live rock with fresh water and i just added salt.
So should i get a small filter, or will they be fine without it? I will do alot of water changes to keep the bio-load down. I'm rambling on too much about some things now.
If anyone has some things for sale i'm looking for...
macro algae live rock with some tubeworms or polyps on them
a bottle of
phytoplankton
a bottle of copepods
....i'll stop talking now and go get that video of the tank. please note when whatching the video, that my hand shakes alot, and i've ever really made a
live rock pile thing before so it kinda looks crappy.
