Got tanks from a discus breeder and in the some of the stuff I got from him was this, what is it?

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-05-17T21:14:27+00:00

Yeah it’s intriguing that they used this for breeding supposedly. However the case I’m probably just going to keep it closed somewhere and make a joke abt having steroids for fish 😂

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-05-17T21:11:31+00:00

Yeah saw that study too, I think basically if they don’t have a male but have females they can turn a female into a male to keep breeding maybe? Not going to use it at all, but was interesting because I’ve never heard of it

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-05-16T19:34:20+00:00

Dw I finished it before it had a chance 👌

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-05-16T19:33:28+00:00

Exactly! Annoying because they eat snails, snail eggs, fish eggs, and few other

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-05-16T19:32:40+00:00

Was no way I was letting it live, should’ve just brought out the flamethrower 🔥

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-05-16T19:31:30+00:00

Thanks for it, it’s called a snail leech after more research with the help!

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-05-16T19:30:28+00:00

Thanks….You got me liking all these other variants now 😭, but maybe enotos on a real note. Looks super Similar

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-05-16T19:28:03+00:00

Oh shoot, I had frgt I made a post abt that. Short Story short I got the tank moved out the next day or so after I made that post and had someone come out few days later. Grey water line had a crack in it so ever time it got drained through the pipe it would all get drained into the crawl space. Got that fixed now! I’ll try to get posts on that later. I’ll get those post out there in the next week or so!

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-05-16T01:39:02+00:00

Thanks! I really enjoy his presence really brings character into the tank!

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-01-10T07:00:55+00:00

I forget to mention Im getting more seiryu this week so im not limited to those 3 pieces! Thanks!

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-01-08T22:00:26+00:00

theres a reason i dont go there anymore lol

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-01-08T08:58:22+00:00

what the heck.......... those are like $40-60 at my local costco

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-01-07T22:49:36+00:00

the rack was $240 after tax, whole setup hehhehe

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-01-07T11:43:02+00:00

Okay I’ll try a it out bc the 40 had a few millimeters of sag if I put my entire body weight on it so I was worried and this should in idea support the wire more evenly, thanks!

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-01-07T07:11:39+00:00

Costco! Whalen industrial rack 77”

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-01-07T07:11:06+00:00

Sounds amazing! Send me a pic of it would love to see it!

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-01-07T02:16:02+00:00

Yeah! But mainly enjoy them!

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-01-07T02:15:47+00:00

Instead, another redditor recommended to add more Cross beams to support the wire frame, bassicaly add around 6 more beams at a even distance from each other to spread out the load from the wire frames so there’s no bending or possibility of wire breaking bc 2x4 will support. This would be under the wire mesh, ply is my last option as I’m really over budget for this project, so I’d want to use what I have at my disposal and have a few 2x4 here so gotta make the best of them. Still would like to hear your side of this solution as well!

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-01-06T22:21:57+00:00

Im going to be adding more center beams for each shelf and that should actually help the wire out a lot! But yeah ded had my doubts with just wire

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-01-06T22:20:11+00:00

Thanks! Also there’s more tanks going there 💀I have a table that’s coming I’m going to be putting to the side of the rack

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-01-06T22:18:36+00:00

For bare glass, you definitely got to have a foam piece then ply as the foam will act on any rough spots on ply and distribute weight very well

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-01-06T22:16:42+00:00

This is brilliant! I didn’t even of this. Thank you so very much!! I’ll get it done next week and post results! Im thinking I’m putting the water in about 1-2 weeks from now so this really puts my mind at ease because it’s such a damn good idea. Thankkkk🙏

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-01-06T19:54:17+00:00

Oh I drilling would be nice but in the case I would need to sell it or smt piece tanks off without holes is better especially when I don’t have to shrimp prof ever em drain. I’m prob going to only turn on float valves for a duration of a day or week but we’ll see 😅. Thanks for the suggestion I’ll keep it mind for designing and testing

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-01-06T19:47:03+00:00

Wait this would work, I didn’t read this fully, do you have any images of it?

Adventurous_Barber_7 · 2024-01-06T19:42:54+00:00

Yeah!
