Try Professional Plastics in Tualatin. They have large off cuts.

That’s what I thought 🤣.

TAP has an off cuts bin for cheap.

Pming about the sump

No worries. Thank you anyway.

I’m sorting through my old reef stuff and have these pumps etc for free. If no takers I’ll donate to Goodwill. Pickup in Lake Oswego.

Super cool! What are the dimensions?

Man that’s just adorable!! Thanks for the info! I was thinking maybe a Pom Pom crab or a snail for livestock but not sure if that works. The tank will be in the house so temps should hopefully be more stable. Enjoy your tank. So cute!!!!

So I’ve been playing around with acrylic to practice before building my sump. I ended up making this wee tank for my live black worms. I happened upon a IG post from a guy with a 1 gallon micro tank. I think it will be a fun experience to start one. It looks like I would be doing an 80% water change weekly. I’d stock it with softies and maybe a powder blue tang 😜 Any advice or input?

Oh thanks. I didn’t know that have issues acclimating . I’ll pm you

Thanks for the info!

Great. Any chance you are going to the meeting on Sunday?

Oh you poor thing!! I’m so glad they were able to help. Hope you are still staying in the hobby! I was totally excited about connecting with my reefer girls again aka you and Kim 😊

If anyone has any mangroves and will be at the meeting, please let me know. Thank you.

I’ll pm you

Me please

Sweet! I’ll pm you. Thank you

Thank you. I saw that but they are large pieces. I’m really just looking for a few tiny little pieces to place in a media bag.

Well Mother’s Day was used to it’s full advantage and I’m moving forward with my little 10 gallon build. Does anyone have a few little pieces of live rock rubble for cheap that I can use to seed my base rock? Also a cup or two of sand to seed my new sand would be awesome. I can meet at the meeting this weekend. Thanks!

Thank you. That’s super helpful. The H20 overflow is pretty cool. I’m thinking of experimenting with acrylic and seeing how it goes.

I’ll try that 😄

Oh thank you. That sounds absolutely awesome. I’ll pm you when I’m ready. First need to use Mother’s Day to my advantage to convince the hubs that this is a good idea 😁

No idea what happened to my reply so I’ll repost. I’m thinking of glass diy. YouTube has convinced me it’s doable. I’m open to acrylic but I worry about it scratching easily. Thoughts?

Ok. So it’s decided that drilling and plumbing will be best. Do I have to to drill for the return pipe though? Candy I just use a glass lily pipe return that’s used with a canister filter?

Ok thank you! Drilled seems safer. How small and unobtrusive do you think the overflow box could be for that size tank. It will be about 13 gallons
