Bonus #1 - sadly he jumped through a feeder hole

Dang, sorry to hear. How big was the hole?

 

[Mschmidt]

Official entry: I'd love the lids most of all, because then the Mrs would let me get a wrasse without fear of it leaping out the tank. A quality auto feeder is never a bad thing.

As my first entry stated, I would get a wrasse. Gobi's a close second and neither my firefish nor the hawk have been prone to jumping.

Build Thread - The Mediocreef

So I'm not alone. You know what it is? It's just a piece of crushed coral. Not sure if it's coralline coming in or what but they're super fluorescent! I get those and weird orange threads that seem to glow. The weird thing about the crushed coral is they don't spread. I've grabbed a couple...

Official Entry: the plank feeder would help with vacations and the lid would be great to replace my current egg crate lid on my 65 gallon

TODAY'S TANK TALK PROMPT: Tell us about your favorite public aquarium exhibit. What did you learn from seeing it?

How I would use the prizes should I win...

My wife and I moved earlier this year and the layout of our new house is ideal for a slightly larger peninsula tank versus the standard 120g I have now. So I plan to upgrade this spring.

My plan for the new tank is an LPS and deepwater acro tank — think ~25-30m down when diving.

AND a key goal of my stocking plan is a small shoal of deepwater anthias — either Red Saddle (Pseudanthias flavoguttatus) or Golden (Pseudanthias aurulentus).

A lid is a must for any tank IMO. But more so for one that holds deeper water fish as they are accustomed to darting in any direction if very suddenly startled.

And a Plank Feeder is already on the wish to keep the anthias well and properly fed with several small feedings throughout the day.

It would be absolutely awesome to win both of these necessities.

Official Entry.

I just saw this thread. I have an acrylic 100 gallon (4'x30"x16") lagoon AIO and it just so happens that I need to get a different lid for it. It's a mixed reef that has only been set up for about 6 months (some of the coral and a firefish are from my previous 15 gallon AIO). Oh, and an auto feeder is on my short list for ASAP purchases.

TODAY'S TANK TALK PROMPT: Tell us about your favorite public aquarium exhibit. What did you learn from seeing it?

This one is easy! We're members at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, CA. I always always stop at their inward curving garden eel tank (you can step in and the glass makes a semicircle around you). It has a bunch of happy garden eels and some long nose hawkfish. Got me really interested in garden eels and learning their complex needs in aquaria. Not their biggest exhibit by far, but they know how to take care of them!
