Not to sure yet to be honest. Torn between both. Would like to get a pair from ORA and eating mysis. Then again I don't want a pair as I don't know what to do with the fry but I have to get a pair in order to have them lol. Unfourtuantly looks like I'll have to let nature run it's course which will be devastating

Any decent LFS could prob get you some. I'm looking into a brand like ORA mainly because they will come to me eating frozen mysis which is huge for ponies

Beck's 29g Seahorse Tank(Project Pony)
So BRS stuff came and all looks great to start the process. Even got the drill press to dril the bulkhead. Well, two tanks later drilling and cracking them both, this project is at a stand still because I threw my drill. I can honestly say that I have some mechanical knowledge but drilling a bulkhead is ridiculous. As of right now, I'm done....

Ok guys another day. I wrote the previous post in the heat of the moment after cracking two tanks. Not giving up yet but apparently I need practice drilling holes. If there is good news, I have three sides on both tanks to practice on  . Any suggestions drilling are welcome!

Yea but figured out why I cracked them. I left the springs on the drill press and didn't realize how much pressure I was putting on them. Tried with them off and cut a perfect hole. Expensive lesson but at least I know now.

Officially have a bulkhead successfully drilled! Phew I was beginning to worry a bit. Need a few more pvc couplers and I should get it finished by tomorrow.

Pretty basic overflow with Durso. Tomorrow I'll get the return done and hopefully fill it!

The more research I've done the more I think I'll go with Ocean Rider mustangs.
