Nightsters 75g FOWLR

Here it is in its spot in my living room. Gonna sit here for awhile before its running. The lights are a lil too blue for me but it'll probably look cool for a fowlr.

 

yeah i like the blues like that for fish only..and some super white sand with that blueness will look good..

 

Agreed, the tank is looking good!

 

also the blues like that will be less likely to cause algae problems, since the fish in there will have a larger bio load..

 

Great score on the tank! Cant wait for the killing to start! lol

 

Lol right, hopefully its just the food that's dieing.

 

I love the thought of a predator tank and have had ideas on that myself. But as far as dropping live feeders in the tank using freshwater fish as feeders isnt a good idea especially goldfish. Saltwater predators are not made to digest the scales and over a long period of time it will cause liver damage to your fish. If you do want live feeders its best to use live silversides and flagfish they are natural saltwater feeders but its not cheap, its actually best if you can switch over to frozen foods from live shrimp, krill, clam etc. and much healther for the fish. Also fresh water feeders get the fish by for a while but they actually end up with deficiancies because they dont carry the fatty acids and nutrients that saltwater feeders have.

 

Oh when I said feeder fish I just meant live fish, not the freshwater ones. I wouldn't dare try to cross freshwater and saltwater. I guess I should have made myself clear.

 

Oh ok sorry about that, ive seen a lot of people get eels and lions etc. and use goldfish thats the general assumption anyway. I actually seen at a LFS that wasnt open very long thank god feed there eels live goldfish and the guy was bragging that a green wolf eel had the coolest orange tint to it. It wasnt a natural tint it was becasue its liver wasnt working properly and feeding it goldfish was actually killing it so so sad.

heres some links ive used to order live feeders in the past
