yellowseahorseguy Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Hey guys I'll post a video because it's hard for me to illustrate what I want to do and also trouble shoot this small build. https://vimeo.com/180200224 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The ReefBox Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 With it being as small as a tank as it is you are prob fine, but you could take that back piece off, get a new piece cut and silicone it back on pretty cheap I'm guessing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack-the-reefer Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 (edited) You might be okay, but it'll make a big mess if you're wrong. I have a nice rimless 7.5 gallon tank you can have if you don't want to risk it. Edited August 25, 2016 by Jack-the-reefer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowseahorseguy Posted September 9, 2016 Author Share Posted September 9, 2016 Update: So I thought about it and I wanted to still figure this out. I managed to get my acrylic pieces from Tap Plastics and I silicones them. I created an overflow and return. I also stripped the glass and resiliconed the corners. Off of amazon, I bought $7 return pump 80gph and $8 airline pump for higher 02 as seahorses need more oxygen due to primitive gills. From Upscales, I got a return nozzle and attachment. I then added some live rock roughly 4 lbs in front and 2 lbs in back. I added some caulerpa, cleaner shrimp and 2 snails. Honestly I really wanted the feather caulerpa but this will do! Reached out to Algaebarn.com as they have helped me before with seeding tanks. I'll get a bunch pods and phyto from them. Teaching my niece and nephew about reefing. Buying decapsulated brine to hatch every other day to feed the captive bred dwarf seahorses from Dan and Abbey at Seahorsesource.com. The pods will keep them well fed though. Waiting for the nano ATO, light, and making a custom stand for it. Wish me luck! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
