2nd AIO Tank, 1st build thread

[phillyb614]

Quick update. Got my fire shrimp a buddy. Not hiding nearly as much now.

Also, found my jawfish on the floor the other day. Still baffled as to how he got out. Mesh lid has stayed on except for water changes. Bummer. RIP little buddy.

Lastly, I have a THIRD tank arriving tomorrow!! My wife found a great deal on and 85 gallon Cade 900! Comes with cabinet, sump (going to be my first sump!), pump, heater, sand, and rock. Only $700!! Has been running for 5 months already as well! Super excited! Will be doing a separate build thread for this one. Journey begins tomorrow at 10. Making lots of water at the moment lol! Have a great Saturday everyone!

Great thread!

I also have a fire shrimp in my AIO WB 35.2, but he's very shy, hunging udside down under an arch almost all the time, having it for more than a year. If I get a budy for him, do you think will come out more?

Yes, I do think if you get him a buddy, he will be more adventurous. My wife had suggested we do so, but I was skeptical and only got the one. Then, I saw an “All About” video on YouTube about the fire shrimp. I do enjoy and take to heart what is said in Brock’s videos. As soon as I put the 2nd fire shrimp in the tank, the one absolutely started walking around the tank more.
