1000 Us Gal Project

[T1KARMANN]

its near enough the same as my intended stock so not too different matey boy!

T1 this is the picture he has, im pretty sure its caught in peru though,

i haven't seen any propper pictures of them so i have nothing to compare!
i wouldn't mind the scobina if they are a decent price, what are they going for??
if the p14 stay lower or get even lower i might have them by, say may/june so that should be good.
still waiting for a nice tigrinus cat, all the ones i see for sale are small, and was it you that told me they are very fragile when small and a lot die? so im waiting for one at least 10" or so to come along.
and then just waiting for a blue base cross back!
i got offered a fly river turtle for £180 at 12" not so long ago but didn't have the cash, there is one on the classifieds now for £300, wouldn't mind one but not sure how it would be with he rays?!?!

thats not hystrix sorry

im not that hot at IDing brown rays but i would think thats a yepezi

ey its all going on now, next will be a shed then you will have another room to tinker about in! wish my current garden was big enough for a fish house, i walk out of my back door and if im not careful hit my face on the gate! ha

 

[Liam50]

this is moving pretty quickly. also sorry about all the questions but what heaters will you use?

 

[T1KARMANN]

the aquatronica controls all the heating so i will have 4 x aquamedic 500w heaters

im going to run 4 x 25w UVs which will also warm the water

 

[T1KARMANN]

the shed will be finished next wendsday

the drain for the 24/7 water change is in

the power is in

 

[dave_oddballs]

24/7 water change?

[razer121]

[T1KARMANN]

24/7 water change?

that meen there will be fresh water going in constantly? how does it work?

you run the water via a 3 stage HMA filter with a over flow in the sump
i will be running 100 gal per day so no more water changes

wow you have put a lot of thought into this!! can i ask....do you have a total of how much it is costing?? ive a massive garden.......

i dont know how much it will cost total but its the small things that add up just the juwel back grounds cost £350 as i needed 14 of them
and the aquatronica system was £800
armoured power cable another £170

i have got £10k in the budget thats for the hut and everything
