Lance's 225 gal tank

Anyways... I'm glad it wasn't worse - and yes - Eheims are industructable.

My ATO set-up runs to the 225g and not this tank. This tank has the sump outside and is not really accessible for the water line. I feed the FW to this sump by gravity feed from a 5 gal reservoir using an HIV drip. A slow drip from 3pm when I get home from work to about 8pm is about right. The tank is covered and does not evaporate much.

Had the camera out to video the Fire Clowns spawning, (feel kind of like a voyeur ) and while I had it out took a vid of each tank.

We get it Lance...massive organ you got there. I was trying to snack here when that was sorta forced upon me with the zoom action.

Also... NICE VIDS.

Good thing it wasn't in 3D.

Yeah he's a big one Darren. It moved 6" while I was on vacation and stung the crap out of my large Pocci colony. The thing hasn't moved in 6 months and decides to while I'm away. Grrrr!

Why would a Squamosa taste better than a Crocea?
The Crocea has been in the tank for 2 years and the fish have shown no interest in it. Put a Squammy in and they are all over it. Foxface, Juvi Chocolate Tang and Coral Beauty are all taking turns pecking at it. Poor clam is shut more than closed. Time to get out the strawberry basket, except I couldn't find it and had to make a cage out of egg crate. Stupid fish! Grrrrr!
