The 125g has cyathopharynx foai moliro green marble adults, cyprichromis utinta and gobies.

I had my electrician add extra outlets and an extra circuit, and had the outlets mounted at 36" off the floor. He also added the vent fan which is just to the left of the air pump. It's very quiet and is controlled by a dehumidistat that regulates the humidity in the room. You can see it to...

The air pump is on the shelf up top of the sink. It is connected to the rest of the room via 1" pvc. The pvc is not glued, but held together merely by friction. Aside from one instance where my brother bumped into it and dislodged a connection, the friction has been sufficient to hold it...

In addition to my slop sink, I also had the plumber add a mixing valve. It's set at 75* and I add water with that garden hose straight to the tank. There are drains all around the edges of the room. I can siphon multiple tanks at once into the drains. The tall stacks are air vents...

Here is a picture tour of my small fishroom. It's 11.5'x12.5'. Currently, I have 9 tanks running, all full of Tangs. The tank breakdown is: (1) 210g 7x2x2 - filtered with DIY sump. See thread here. (1) 125g - filtered with 2 AC110s and a fluidized bed FB300. All the rest are on the air...

Depends on the gunk load in the tank. When the sponges start to clog, they overflow over the end of the filter box where the inlet tube connects. Once you see water flowing through there, you know it is bypassing the sponge and it's time to clean. I'm less careful with my filter pads then...

I'm not sure you get enough of a benefit with an airstone v. without in terms of water movement to make that a critical factor in your decision. If you're not getting enough water movement, get a bigger pump. I also read somewhere that it's the reverse pressure of having the air in the tube...

If you have multiple strips, I always liked a combination of daylight, plus one actinic to bring out the blues. I used to do 2 daylight to one actinic or 3:1.

Me too.

There are a lot of things you can do to quiet them, but they make noise. I wouldn't use one in a bedroom, living room and maybe a tv room depending on your tolerance for noise. You'll need some patience to implement all the fixes to quiet the overflows and the drip trays. It's doable and...

I have the coralife 65 that Matt recommends. Plenty of air, but I would not recommend it for a living area as it is on the loud side.

Sarah - I shot you and Tom an email yesterday. His email to me made me think he thought my order was separate from the CCA group order?? I haven't heard back from him, but assume it will all get straightened out and we're still on schedule for first week of October. I can do before then if...

Tony - If you have your filter level (using the leveler tab at the bottom) there should be no danger of water spilling out the back. As someone else said, when the water starts bypassing the clogged sponge, it will spill back into the tank on top of the uplift tube. :happy0180:

My order is in, and paid for. 6 more boops kipili for the group. :D

Hey Dan - Welcome! There are a number of us that keep featherfins and sifters. I've got an adult trio of Foai Moliro Marble Green and about 20+ 1" fry. Maybe the same as yours as they were sold as furcifer, but most of the current pics and descriptions identify them as foai. I've got 4...

Do you have to remove the sponge and turn off the air to feed? Seems a bit cumbersome especially if you feed fry two or more times a day. Other than that, good idea.

All my current rocks are wild caught from Columbia, MD. I have some lava rock for sale in a thread in the buy/sell forum.

Boy, am I glad Mrs. Roberts wanted the bonus BAP points for auctioning off her kilesa! Thanks Sarah. Love the fish!

I'm down for the cookies.

Some (bad) pics for first check. First two are cyatho foai moliro marble green (in a breeder box with the kilesa I got from you). Third pic is paracyp nigripinnis blue neon.
