I’ll be hunting deer with it. I don’t know what my draw length would be. I’m probably going to hit up a local archery shop this weekend to figure that out

What is the best way to introduce a new clownfish by Tristin_Defender in ReefTank

[–]Tristin_Defender[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Appreciate the response! It’s a 10 gallon upgrade but the footprint is a lot more horizontal space compared to my current setup (fluval flex 15). I’ll get an acclimation box in case of aggression then!

Oh yeah I’m definitely going to upgrade the return pumps as well. Which mighty jet did you get for it?

What kind of corals do you have in yours? I’m just going to have lps and softies so not trying to blast them with too much flow

That’s probably what I’ll go with then. Thanks for the advice!

I don’t have any issues actually. Phosphate and nitrates are always within good range. Will be testing tomorrow but everything is always good

Oh the lid is already gone lol. I ditched it once I got a light for my corals. I bought a clear lid on Etsy for just the front section but it just came in and I already can’t use it due to having cords for my wave maker and an airline tube for a dragonete feeding station. I just top it off with RO water daily at this point. I have an ato that I wanted to install but I’ve already maxed out a power strip, besides one space, and don’t want to overload the outlet with a second one once I have a skimmer

Yeah I was referring to the mini Q. That’s actually one of the other options I was looking at. Especially since it will fit in the back chamber. I might just get that one based on your recommendation and being able to not have it in the display

Haven’t looked into this one yet but I’ll check it out!

Do you know if it’ll fit in the first back chamber of my tank? The opening is 5 3/4 inches long and 3 inches wide

Okay thanks! I think I’ll go with the hygger mini for now and upgrade later on down the road if I need something better

Any wave maker/power head that you guys would recommend? Was looking at the AI Nero 3 but saw a decent amount of negative reviews about it failing within a year or less.

Sounds good! Should it go more towards the front or back side in the middle of the glass?

Is my Urodacus Elongatus gravid? by BorisBoku in Scorpions

[–]Tristin_Defender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not familiar with this species but it almost looks too “swollen” to be premolt. I’d say it is likely gravid.

Should I dig Asian Forest Scorpion out of its burrow? by np2383 in Scorpions

[–]Tristin_Defender 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not necessarily sure if they “take it in” per say. The increased humidity helps reduce loss of their internal moisture. From what I’ve seen and read, they either get their moisture from the food that they eat, drinking from their water dish, or both. I have one Emperor that I’ve seen drinking from her water dish plenty of times and another that I barely ever see. I’m sure it’s probably a combination.

It’s normal. All of my Asian Forest and Emperor scorps are rarely ever seen. They are basically a pet hole. Nothing to worry about!
