I'll add more pics once I open the bag and let them out, as well as when the table is finally back on the enclosure.

That is pretty cool. Good job Whut. Always thought you had a flair for interior design/decorating. :)

Yeah, the dude at the store has 14 aquariums in his house lol.

He showed me what food to get and told me how to feed them. He also explained that I should ignore the instructions on the food can.

I plan on getting a couple of them poop suckers.

Thanks for the advice!

One more.

a few choice pieces of advice.....Oh, and I currently work and have worked previously at a local fish store ( we're the smug ones who make fun of the Petco's and Petsmarts ). My record number of tanks at any one time was 34 tanks ( from 1 gallon up to my 125 gallon moray eel tank) as well as 25 herptile enclosures ( I was breeding leapord geckos and panther chameleons). Mind you the moray eel I was showcasing in the larger tank was a fish I had been offered 4 grand for at one point. I'm not saying this to show off, I'm saying this to tell you I tend to know my stuff about fish and some herptiles.

Ok, first off, zebra danios don't really require a heater unless you're cheap on your heating bill and it gets cold in the house (I'm in southern cali, we don't have to worry about indoor temperature shifts too much.) The only reason this is a biggy is primarily just the fact that its in the tank/table being an eyesore. The other reason this can matter is that higher water temp = higher metabolism = more fish excriment = more algae = more work on your ass to take care of it.
This is actually the same as the second point. Don't put in a pleco. Though they're bitching looking < do a look up on a true zebra pleco L046, not the immitators-just keep in mind we're currently retailing them for $449.99> they are essentially a cow. A lot of people think of them as poop eaters, they aint. They're a cow. They eat the algae and turn it into more shit. If you've ever seen a cow eat, the conversion rate isn't very good. A lot of grass makes a lot of shit, without all that much of the grass getting actually used up. Same is true for the pleco's.
The other argument for them is that they eat leftover food. Well....this is sort of a dumb argument cause the only way to have leftover food is if you feed to much. Danio's (glofish) aint dumb fish, if there's food on the bottom they'll eat it. Only reason they wouldn't is if they're overfed to an extreme. This means your putting more food in than they're able to eat in about 45 seconds once a day (or every other, doesn't make much difference.)

However, the tank is bitching. California law doesn't let us get glofish for good or bad so its cool you got some.

The only other note I'd make for the tank is that your sole source of oxigenation is coming from the output of your filter <looks like a fluval from the pics?> Though it won't look as pretty, ensure that the output is causing some form of disruption across the surface of the water. This is what will actually cause gaseous exchange between the interface by the expansion and contraction of the surface area. Basically you want to see ripples. You can always adjust this during a party and then correct it after (the next day if I'm assuming properly about your parties).


But yea, fricking awesome. If I get some scrap acrylic, want me to make you a wall mounted one?

Anyway, after a lot of blood, sweat, and tears, I present to you the final product! Dick Cheney took this captivating photo with his nice ass camera. This is what all my hard work amounted to.

Please note that they are incredibly hard to photograph (the fish) as they are so fast.


So... it's more of an "in person" kinda thing.



But you get the idea.

Also, I have ripples!
