Otty's 265 (w/3 sided View)

Yes it did !

 

The INDMAS (Indiana Marine Aquarium Society) annual frag swap was really good this year, seems to be getting bigger every year. They had a lot of nice door prizes from local shops and plenty of frags.
All three pieces I picked up are in the Q-tank and the lights come on during the night after the 265's lights go out so I will try and get a pic posted in a couple of days. They all need to keep getting their dips every 2 weeks and see how they turn out before they get in the display.

How does your Frog Spawn look that I picked up for you??

 

Check out my tank thread, just posted some pics a min. after you posted this! Thanks again, karma your way!

 

Pictures? Where's the picture police? Luna!!!

 

Can't get a good pic in the Q-tank, color doesn't look the same. They will be in the display tank maybe next weekend and I will post pics then.

Patience my friend!

 

Man not even a picture of the new skimmer?

 

Well after digging and unloading 100 more 12" gray castle wall blocks I was kind of tired last night. Here is a quick one, hope the bar stool gives it a scale.....

Don't really know where I am going to clean this thing out in....the shower.

 

Holy skim mate Otty. That thing is bigger than all get out.

 

Glad I don't have to try and fit that under the tank.

 

Otty once you get it set up there is little cleaning ever needed.. Mine runs about on average 6 months before I just pull it out and hose it down

I just loosen the screws remove the top chamber then rinse the cup every couple weeks thats it . Just don't tighten them to tight just to where they are touching the flange almost . Might want to get a collector also I may have one laying around its old but I'll see its a P/M also. it fills up the skimmer stops. Until you dump the container..

Had you have to have crammed it under the tank I'd mentioned the Bullet 1 or 2 aka the shorty boy series LIL The Vertically less challenging models , Oh also I put a street ell on the body then the valve to shot my discharge water towards the front and not to the side just worked best for my set up. over the sump. I made a channel bracket to set on the inner rim of the 40 breeder sump and set the skimmer right up on it.
