talkalot82 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 For 5 mangroves today. Stick three in my tank. Until refuge is set up with new tank. And two on my dad's 90 Gallon. Shrimps seem to love it. .. so does my fishes. Who swim about. Can't wait to see what they do for my tank. .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadySaber Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I think I will try to find one or two for my tank I would love to try them out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yourmedic Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Mangroves, way cool! Are you going to be doing anything different for lightening or keeping your lightening the same as your tank? If your just going to be using your tank lightening, what are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse522 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I think I will try to find one or two for my tank I would love to try them out I bought mines from ATK aquatics in hillsboros. I know it is a bit far for you through, if you go there, call ahead. The Mangroves are not always in stock. They are revamping their saltwater section, so they presently do not have much in stock for the saltwater lovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadySaber Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Ok thanks will give them a call when I do my vacation next month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
talkalot82 Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 My lighting is going to remain the same With leds .. I got my mangrove on ebay 5 for 20 bucks... I will have 8 leds when I'm done setting up all tanks. ... 4 leds over display Tank. Two leds over sump and two over refuge... but currently over this 55 I have two. But they will end up going into my 55 gallon refuge... So all in all. I will have a 120 display... with 55 gallon sump behind holding about half with water of course.... then a 55 gallon refuge with mangroves and other plant life with sea horses. ... then also connecting my grow out clown fish tank when I breeding to sump. But those I run t5 and aren't always going. .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasquatch Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 be sure when you get them on Ebay that they are salt acclimated before putting them into the tank.. either buy them that way or slowly increase the salinity from normal tap till they are ready for full reef.. I made this mistake of putting in fresh trees and they shrunk up and died on me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
