Mini Fuge for BioCube DIY Thread w/ Pics

I was always under the impression Chris Angel had something to do with it.. Better check your resources

 

lol

 

My mistake it is magic.

 

It's alright, just don't let it happen again.

But in all seriousness it's a very cool design and works well if everything is sealed properly.

 

Really lovin my fuge. How many hermits, ceriths, nassi snails should I add? It's a 10g w/ 5lb of LR and 20lb of sand and lots of macro's. Was also considering if I should put my emerald crab down there too.

Also would a 6line and a mandarin be safe together or are they considered conspecifics?

 

I have no idea.. :-/ I loaded up on Macro Algae, I'll most likely put some snails down there and maybe my emeralds when they go after my corals.

 

In my opinion and I think many others they would not go together in a tank that small especially since they both compete for pods.

 

That's what I was thinking, my six line is fat from eating pods all day. I know a guy that sells Mandrins that eat Mysis shrimp

 

Return pump complete with check valve and downgrade to 1/2 pipe. Also installed two fans for humidity control.

 

No. Either of those fish could wipe out your entire pod population in a day or two. And IMO unless you are seeding your tank with pods repeatedly its not going to be possible to keep a mandarin happy. Yeah, they will eat brine, but there is hardly any nutrition in them. They can eat, but still be malnourished.
