A 5g mishap, now in a 17g budget flavor.

Fuge growing nicely I see, and nice layer of Marine Pure Balls.

Do you let the fuge light stay on 24/7 or just at night?

Fuge light is on a 16 hr cycle, and the display lights are on an 8 hr cycle.

Fire fish are hermits imo when they find a home they don't want to leave it. And true that about jumping that's how I lost a firefish, but I had a full acrylic lid with a very small 1/8th of an inch space running across the back where I would feed/test water and the bugger still managed to jump out while I wasn't home.

I have a screen top, but usually remove it for pictures

So I found a place locally that has "Black Smoke" plexiglass.

I got a scrap piece for mock up, and I REALLY like it. Gives everything a "finished" look, with all implements still visible. So yeah, with that I am ordering custom pieces for the front and sides of my stand.

Going to paint some magnets black and epoxy them to the back of the plexi.
