My soon to be breeding Room!

Hey guys haven't posted much here in a while I've been busy with school and work but I wanted to update you guys on my current project. I'm starting up my own breeding room in a storage room in our basement! It will consist of one 30 gallon tank and five 10 gallon tanks all plumbed into one sump. I currently only have the one 30 gallon tank and one of the 10 gallon tanks but I'll get some more soon. I plan to mostly breed clownfish and I may try dottybacks. I will have a culture of Rotifers and copepods for the larvae. now for a few pics...

Here's a pic of the room, well part of it. The 10 gallons will be turned to make more room.


Here's a really bad diagram of how it will be. Red is drain PVC green is return.


This is a great book that I bought, very helpfull.

 

Cool!!!!...I wish I had a basement or room I could do that in..awesome idea. Keep us posted.

 

dont some of the breeding tanks need to be almost no movement except for some air line tubing?

im just thinking for the newborns they will get sucked down into your sump

 

That looks like it will be a fun build and how cool to breed your own clowns!

 

These are just the broodstock tanks. I will have seperate tanks for larvae rearing and growout. Thanks guys!

 

I see a future LFS Owner!!!!

 

That's awesome! How big are you going to make the sump?

 

looking forward to seeing pics

 

I think 55 gallons but I'm not sure.

 

Looks like its gonna be awesome....
