Slick's Tank Journal(s)

[Slick Fork]

You may be panicking... thinking "SLICK, Where are your critters???" but don't worry, I talked the horses into giving up a water trough



They're all fairly happy in there, only exception is the 2 clown's are upstairs in the 33 gallon with all the coral because they wouldn't leave their stupid rock with mushrooms.

Got the profilux running the water trough and the sump!


Now the sump isn't actually connected to any other water. I've got some rocks and the sand-bed in there as well as a new toy, I just acquired a vertex IN-180 skimmer. The Tunze should be somewhere in the Okanagan by now! Just had the skimmer running for a day and a half but so far so good. Here's a gratuitous FSS (full sump shot) for all you junkies out there!


I can't wait to get the new tank, I've got too many critters spread into too many places. I've got the corals and clowns in a 33 gallon upstairs and none of them are happy up there, I've got all the other fish in the water trough, the sump running and a couple of buckets of LR cooking. Get back to one system to take care of and all will be well.

Heading to town this weekend to see if I can figure out how I want to skin the stand and frame the top canopy. We had been thinking about that ceramic artificial stone you can get at Home Depot but at $100/10sqft, that's a lot of money to do the stand. Maybe a nice hardwood panel.

Cheers
