Oh they are way cheaper than when I checked lasT

Also, if it’s legal, can I get wild mangrove seeds because idk where to source them that isn’t ridiculously expensive

I'm dying to do a mangrove tank. Haven't had the time to go buy a tank for em tho :)

 

[NoahLikesFish]

You just need the mangroves seeds

You just need the mangroves seeds

yeah ik but I really wanted to do a tank like the inappropriate reefers! just love that setup he has going on there.

 

[NoahLikesFish]

I didn’t really like how he put the psudomugil inside because he had coral that could eat them and a powerhead that could chop them up

Ye

Mangroves grow really slow but ok to use. The biggest issue is most fish jump and creating a lid is difficult .

I saw some egg crate but thin and easy to cut someone used in a refugium hob mod. Mabye it could work because of its easy ness to cut

 

[Tamberav]

yah it just sort of ruins the seamless look.

nano fish can jump right out of typical egg crate but you can cover it with netting.

Would seran wrap with vent holes work? I don’t see why tightly stretched seran wrap perforated with holes would be bad

Seriously back to saran wrap?

Yah no.

once you have to remove it once you would need a new piece every time. Hot mess

no

A net lid kit on eBay is $20 and clips for the lid are maybe $3 or free if you have a rimmed tank lol forget the saran wrap

I don’t see any. Would this work? https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petco...3Zm705sPxhdPOoYx8FhoC9CwQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

absolutely not, no metal in or near aquarium, it will rust and get in the tank

 

[dedragon]

and powder coated, so even worse for being near the tank, no powders or aerosol comes close to my reef

Won't have as much give as a net if a fish hits it but it might be fine, I don't know. I just used this one:

Lid link

Which looks neat and is perfectly safe, just has to be cut to size.
