You won't believe me if I told you how I get pictures to turn out as well as they do in this tank.

We have a name for "the new guy." It came to me today at work. He has been doing really well, is as active as one of these guys seem to be, has a good appetite and gets along with Ember and Blaze well. I've decided his name shall be Pyre.

You mean this?
...it is very possible that is what that is. If so, I would guess it is from the pistol shrimp tho, and not a sexy.

Yep. That's what I was talking about. Wonder if he's eating on that for his own exoskeleton?You mean this?

I'll see about making a video about how I feed this tank. It is very simple. I only feed a tiny pinch of frozen, split pea size. This is enough for everyone to get some, and it thaws super fast. I like to mix it up in a cup and make sure it is thoroughly thawed and broken up into small pieces. Then I put the return and the power heads into feed mode and pour the food in, kind of spreading it over the tank. Everyone gets a little piece.

The zip ties on the overflow were bothering me. I didn't care for how they looked, and the roots on one of the mangroves are growing very well. So much so I was worried about them getting into the power head... with a little thought, and some EPE foam...
Bam, floating mangroves.
I know what you're thinking. They wont get into the power heads. The flow keeps them pushed up against the front of the tank. They wiggle around a little, but not much.
