Bumblebee shrimp moved to their permanent home!
They come to the front of the tank and beg for food when they’re hungry.
I’ve been feeding them via tweezers because the pages say they’re bad at finding food.




I have a solid lid for the tank to reduce the amount of algae growth.
I have some go Franks awesome liverock in the tank for decor and stability.

I’m going to have to go get some of his rock too. I’ve seen some of the pieces he has, although it’s been a year since I was to Flora last.

I want to research bumblebee shrimp now. See what you started? :upside-down-face:

the big one pulled most the legs off the smaller one in the 2.5gallon tank so I put the small one back in my QT tank. he may go in the bottom long tank for as long as he can hide from the trigger.

I need to move ParlAquatics out of my basement! My wife and I are uncomfortable with all the printers in the house. Despite ventilation, we're still concerned about the off-gassing and microplastics.
I'm going to try to move it all out to my shed for the time being.

Happy new year! All is well; the tanks weathered the Holiday… too much to catch up on…

Calcium Reactor Runtime:
CO2 @ about 1 bubble every 4 seconds
Apex CO2 config:

Kamoer is dosing 30ml/min
Ph for the reactor is:

I've been running the Kalk like before but am stopping one of the dosers for a few hours at peak Ph.

I havent measured my alk in a long time...

I need to get on that...
probably need to fill my ParlaWasser reactor too.

Just turned on the log to see how often the Apex is turning on the CO2.

I really dig those frag holders. Did you print them/have an STL file available for 'em?

Nice! Thanks!

I'm looking to get into printing later this year once my taxes are filed, little reef projects + some other hobbies are the catalyst behind it. Thoughts on the Bambu P1 as an entry point?

that is a good one. you could also consider the A1 or the A1 mini but the CoreXY and enclosure are worth it.
