  1. I will look into this thanks !
  2. Yes I have. He made the 300 gallon Paludarium with a tank that had a lower front panel but I think the ropefish would jump out. I know custom aquariums has an option with doors in the front but I haven’t seen too many other options with enough water volume. I don’t think I would be comfortable making a tank of that size myself. I will definitely be taking notes from his channel for the materials and all of that for the land portion!
  3. If you were going to make a paludarium that holds 100 gallons of water for a group of ropefish how would you do it? The idea would be to have a large enough land portion for a colony of isopods to live and for it to be sturdy enough for the ropefish to get up there and catch them. I have seen the pond style set up Oddball Aquatics has on YouTube, but I would love to see them swim around in a glass tank on the bottom. My concern with the glass is building something sturdy enough. I have seen the paludarium set ups from custom aquariums but I am wondering if anyone else has looked into something similar. Thanks!
  4. I have been collecting cpd fry every week. Currently most of them are in aquarium co op specimen containers. I have a 6 gallon that I can house some as a grow out until they are large enough to go in my 29 gallon. I have a fluval breeder box but I have concerns about blocking the out flow so they don't escape. When I use a piece of sponge it tends to clog quick and I am worried about it overflowing. I have also read about them being too small for the ziss mesh. Has anyone found solutions to any of these issues? I have also seen dean's fry system but he says this will not work for smaller fry. Has anyone had success making modifications to use it for smaller fry? I will soon run out of specimen containers to keep them separate so I can put the oldest in the 6 gallon together (I would rather not when they are only 3 or 4 weeks old), get more specimen containers, invest in breeder boxes, or set up a fry system. Suggestions are welcome!
  5. What is the best breeder box for these fry? If you're using the fluval, what are you using to keep them from escaping? I have used a piece of sponge to block it but it clogged quickly and I am worried about it overflowing. If you are waiting for them to be big enough for the ziss mesh, how long does that typically take? Right now mine are in the aquarium co op specimen containers with air lines and I am doing water changes often. I have a 6 gallon that I am using for a cory grow out temporarily but I would like to keep them separate instead of throwing them all in there when they are so small.
