Digglers 75 eel tank

[Mr.Diggler]

Today I added 90 pounds of Caribsea Aragonite sand. I seeded it with sand from three of my established tanks. Now I'm twiddling my thumbs until my rock shows up.
Nice and cloudy.

 

[OhNoNemo]

yep,,now the waiting game..Do you have all your pumps on or off??
I always left everything on ..

I liked it when the tank was cloudy.. meant I was finally getting the tank going.. :D

 

[Marines_Wife]

The anticipation mounts....... :D

+1 Matt...leaving em off will speed up that process

 

[Mr.Diggler]

My 100 lbs of rock arrived this morning. My LFS is out of epoxy so I have to wait until tomorrow to set it up the way I want it. Let the cycle begin. My water is still cloudy.

I like that macro they sent with the rock, its very beautiful

 

[Dana42078]

Nice! Sucks they were out of epoxy tho.

 

[Mr.Diggler]

The algae is very cool. I can't remember the name of it, looks like dredlocks.:D

It's good that you're epoxying the rocks down. Before I found a stable way to put the rocks my eel would knock them over on himself...

 

[ErinCahir]

Looks awesome Diggler!

 

[Mr.Diggler]

Thanks for all of the nice words guys. :D I finally got my rock epoxied together. I'm going to use another tube just to be on the safe side. I ordered a 30" MH for my 37 but didn't pay attention to the width measurement, like a dumbarse. So I'll be "modifying" the legs to fit on my 75. Lol. So far I've found some neat-o feather dusters and a small clam. The clam croaked so I let it rot away until this afternoon before pulling it out to discard. On with the pics.................

Thanks. :wave:

Ugh, the new light fixtures ventilation system isn't doing the trick. 84 degrees. I found a small 4" fan to blow underneath it until I can find/build some sort of contraption to hang these damn things from. Hopefully the extra fan will do the trick for a while.
