  1. If ever there was gonna be a safe place to ask questions, this forum is it.
  2. Welcome, any pictures of your tanks?
  3. Oh wow, do you have any pictures of your koi?
  4. nice, multiple tank syndrome is setting in 😉 what are the fish stock in this tank?
  5. Welcome Ginger, I'm jealous, I can't get my albino kribs to breed for me lately. They keep digging and I'm feeding them live baby brine and other foods daily... I think they know how bad I want to see the babies lol.
  6. Welcome, No pics of your tanks? 🙂 Gotta get lisa on it.
  7. I’ll post projects and pictures I like from my fish room.
  8. Shot of the bins lined up to load into the usps semi truck.
  9. Nice shot of the rice fish with eggs.
  10. Your room is awesome, love that you have natural light coming in.
  11. Only the minimal water changes from the auto water changes have gone on so far.
  12. Looks like the picture didn't post?
  13. Most of the muck settled, is it looks like it made pine needles float. Once the sun hits these they should start breaking down. Also the hatched egg shells floating. Hopefully the brine made it through the night. If not I’ll add more after a few days.
  14. Harvested maybe brine and saved a little bit to go into the pond.
  15. Chemical reaction of the salt made a bunch of muck float, we will see if it settles over time. This is what I want in there to help sees the first foods for the brine.
  16. I haven’t done a brine shrimp pond in years and I decided now that I’m hatching baby brine shrimp every day, it was time to grow some adults. first I had to get rid of the duckweed from the pond. I left in the muck and little bits of plants. The salt will kill them and fuel some green water once the sun hits it for a few days. It always amazes me how much salt goes into saltwater. I did 50 cups of salt for 100 gallons. This instant ocean salt I had already. I don’t like it as much as fritz salts but for a brine shrimp pond it’ll do. I’m running a usb air pump with a never clog air stone mostly to just mix the salt and keep the water from getting too stagnant. I’ve run the brine ponds before with no airation and I find it runs a little cleaner it seems with air.
  17. Collected the duckweed from my small ponds to feed as a treat to the koi.
  18. Right after install it was pretty dirty. This is after we washed them with a hose and a brush after a week of rain. Then a few days later with the filtration running.
  19. Decorations showed up, better late than never. Some damage on the most expensive one but shouldn’t affect the tank as that will be above the water. Gonna let them sit in the sun/rain for a week to get their shape and get some of the dirt off.
  20. Tore down the 800 gallon and had to cut the background out of the 20 ft roll of background I bought. Turns out they only sent 19 feet. Thanks universlrocks 🥵
