i have crabs is on a distinguished road
Default

so now that the tank is in the house i needed a stand and a sump so what would a getto reffer do?
steal wood from surrounding work sites of course.
in this pic the stands not quite finished yet but thats where the tank is going and thats the stand

not bad for $5 worth of screws
as for the sump i didnt want to but a new sump that was the same size as the tank they were in so i had a new tank built 130g(72x18x24)1/2 glass with euro bracing and swaped them into the new tank tith all thier old filters ,lights and rock ect.. this way i had the old 130g with the scratches to turn into a sump and a new 130g to sell once finished all this bull.
here are the fish in the new tank also moved to the basement to stop the wife complaining.

while moving i loaded the fish into 30g plastic bins,i ended up losing a damperia grouper and a 2 foot snowflake eel while doing this, i believe it was because i had them in with 2 leaflip groupers wich are actually soapfish and have a toxic mucus when stressed,normally i move the leaflips by them selfs but i was not thinking that day.they were in the bin about 1 hour and the eel was dead that night and the damperia lived 2 days but was in bad shap the whole time.
damperia grouper which is actually a Pseudochromis
