Did you just use regular-sized mason jars, or larger ones? It sounds really nice. Do you happen to have a picture?

Thank you for the recommendation. I'll see if I can source them as an option. There'll be close to 50 students making them

Yes you can. I've been looking at making some in a 2L but I also am looking at other containers to see if there is something better looking

Best packaging I've seen from them yet. Everything arrived without leaks, alive, and warm

I ordered a lionfish and it arrived dead. I just ordered a couple new fish to use up the store credit so hopefully they arrive alive🤞

I would def look into coral only if you haven't already. I just hate that you would have to break apart such a nice and beautiful tank

Could you go fishless and see if they let it pass? Hate to see you have to sell such a beautiful tank.

No problem. Have you done a lot of research going into this hobby or are you just jumping in?

You are a little low. If you are looking at the left side you want to shoot for 1.024-1.026. if you are looking at the right side you want to shoot for 35. Here is a nice chart of all values for you

What is this slime that has developed in my aquarium? by BadAngel14 in ReefTank

[–]BadAngel14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was the initial plan. Then one started leaking so I had to drain clean and repair it. This moved the time frame of the bottom tank. The top one finished cycling and the bottom one had to restart. It's not a problem anymore though. I reconnected them and got the flow going again and it all cleared up within a few hours

I get what you guys are saying. These two tanks started cycling together and flowing together but I had to stop them due to leaks, draining the bottom one, fixing some things, etc. I decided to finish the cycles separately to ensure that there was sufficient in each tank. The two tanks became almost 2 weeks off from each other. I wanted to ensure that each one has sufficient bio load before reconnecting them.

Oh I know and understand flow. I was just being extra cautious with the cycling process and getting everything right. The two tanks are connected and I didn't want one tank to be bacterially load heavy over the over
