They are sneaky little guys.. xD I think I'll just figure out a latch for the door. It doesn't even have handles as it is now haha!

 

[fishmonkey]

oh lol but you dont want your cats getting in there lol. im just imagening them getting a little wet from the sump water, and then all the electrical stuff back there...well you get the picture: fried kitten. sorry for the grotesque image that is now burned into your mind hopefully!

 

[partypalooza5]

LOL dont worry monkey, I patched up the back so they cant get in. Plus, I've watched my bigger cat try to get in and he only opens it and sits on top of the ATO res. xD crazy kitty.

 

[fishmonkey]

but its still a possibility. that would be easy for that to happen. one wet foot and ZAP! fried kitten. my freinds dog was shocked very badly and had to go to the vet when he stepped outside when it was raining, came right back in (his paws were slightly wet) and went to sit in his favorite spot. behind his aquarium stand. right on top of the power strip and stuff. just a thought.

 

[partypalooza5]

Yea.. Thanks for bringing it up O_O I may need to put a lid on my sump too just in case they are able to defeat child locks lol!

 

[fishmonkey]

lol, i suggest cat locks... and a lid. maybe some barbed wire and an electric fence as an afterthought...

You forgot the mine field.

You forgot the mine field.

But then we would have to hire robots to arm them..

Another update: Tomorrow I'll go to Petsmart and see if salts on sale. Either salt or sand.. I still can't decide! LOL

 

[fishmonkey]

salt, then sand. sarah says hi.

Look at IO, I got a bucket that makes 160g for only $50.

 

[Flake]

My IO buckets are about 50-60$. Plus you get a free bucket

 

[partypalooza5]

I kinda like Coralife though.. plus they are cheaper. XD And I think you still get a free shirt! xD (free.. yea right..)

 

[Sharkbait430]

I like Oceanic but thats just me...

P.S. You dont get free nothin, lol

 

[InfernoST]

IO works for me, my next order will be reef crystals.

 

[Flake]

I like my reef crystals

 

[partypalooza5]

xD To me, IO and RC are like the "big name brand" ones that everyone knows about. (like Coke.) I want to try one of the other guys that aren't as popular.(and I realize that Coralife is a big name too lol) But I've heard of more than a few people using Coralife too.

Another update: If I can find the memory card to my camera, I'll put pics of my new lighting xD I'm quite proud.

 

[Flake]

Sometimes things aren't as popular for a reason....

xD I like the graphics on the Coralife bucket better than IO's

 

[Flake]

I like the way you make your decisions.

 

[partypalooza5]
