Gill Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 check out my new refugium??? I was thinking I could get four different types of macro algae for the first four chambers. I want to use at least one for xiena. What do you guys think? Any ideas of cool stuff that can fit in a cube that small? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgf86123 Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Now that should make one helluva display refugium man, just mount it over your tank, fill er up, an let er rip LOL. You could easily do clown gobies in the various cubes, different type of clown goby for each cube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgf86123 Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Heard but never seen, but at 6", you're going to want a mantis that gets no bigger than 3" or so LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had only seen them in youtube videos and they must have been babies because they were way smaller than that LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reef165 Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 That dose look like a great idea!! low flow, separate the dif macros. I like it! For those who are thinking this would be a great idea and want to know whare to get one like that, The Nano Reef has two of them and I'd bet if you offered them a fair price they would sell one to ya.

Trautman Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 dude, that is sick!. you could also probably take out the dividers on some if you wanted to keep a mantis. perhaps with the light that close you could get some nice coral goin' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gill Posted November 16, 2010 Author Share Posted November 16, 2010 So I got my patch cut out of 1/4" acrylic can I use super glue gel to put it in place? Do I need do get the stuff tank builders use or will the super glue hold? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reef165 Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 supper glue wont melt the acrylic together and has a real potential of leaking, IMO it will be well worth the drive and $4 to go to Tap and get a tube of weldon 16. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to stop by on Sunday but they were closed, oh well tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
