Aquamarine 900 Journal - My First Marine Tank

[ainsy]

And they kept it in the same bag all of that time?

 

[FishAreFriendsNotFood10]

Nah they jus stuck the order sticker on the bag lol....have no idea why tbh

 

[SaltNoob]

He is very pretty. I don't think they pair with shrimp tho. Didn't you wanna pair them?

Awesome fish.

They do pair up with shrimp google randalli goby there's tons of videos with pistol shrimps

I snuck in haha jk it's just a sticker my LFS stocks from tmc

Sweet! Grats on the fish. Looks great.

Thanks I've already set my LFS on the hunt for a nice pistol shrimp, they're guna try find some rarer varieties too

And I'm still waiting for a gramma as nice as yours Tyler got the next 2 on reserve for next week to see if I like em lol

I think those are best kept as singles due to their territorial aggression to their own species.

Mine has a deep purple and these beautiful stripes that go from the nose and spread as they go back 1/3 of the body =)

Because of yours I'm waiting for the perfect 1 lol

If you are lucky to find a mated pair, that's the one exception to them being kept singly. Mated pairs are hard to come by, though.

I loved my gramma. A perfect fish and a great personality. If you get an outgoing one, you won't regret the choice. Just be really careful with lids. I can't stress this enough.

okay im confused are we talking gobies with gobies or gobies with shrimp?
cause my guy is a shrimp goby, and if were talking goby with goby then im aware my goby doesnt work well with his own type. He is going to be my only goby anyways and his max size is 4.5 inches so hes not guna be much of a threat when i got cleaner shrimps already bigger than him lol (about a inch and a quarter in size atm). Hes eating well today though

 

[SaltNoob]

She is talking about the Gramma. They should be kept alone or in mated pairs.

-Tyler

 

[FishAreFriendsNotFood10]

Aha yeh I was aware that grammas should be kept alone or as a very rare mated pair. Guna ring up my LFS today to see what their ordering and when I said I had the next "2" on reserve I meant I was going to buy 1 of the 2. Quite silly of me assuming you lot think i know my stuff when it comes to grammas lol

Hi FishAre Friends

I've enjoyed reading your thread as I'm picking up my Aquamarine 900 on Saturday, yippeeeeee!! How are you getting on with your NewWave powerheads? My LFS is telling me that the 2000 is fine but I see that you bought the 3100's.

Hi there , congrats on picking a great lil tank I like my newave powerheads they are really quiet. The 3100s are fine in my tank my small fish are getting use to them now lol they do kick my sand up if I point then down though

 

[sleeky]

Whereabouts have have you put them in your tank? Are you sure the two of them aren't too powerful?

Yeah, I'm so excited about getting my new tank! My current setup is a 23l Fluval Edge reef which I've sumped. It's running brilliantly but I'm now hooked on marine and gotta go bigger so that my baby clowns will have more space to grow up in

I'm going to run with the MariSys2 for a while to see how it goes and if I'm not happy with it I'll just sump it. Have you taken any more pics? Can't wait to see how it's looking now - you've done a great job so far!

Just put them at the left and right pointing towards each other in straight lines, they seem fine and my water turnover Is brilliant. I'm sure 2x 2000s would suffice tho
Have you got a journal for your edge I'd love to take a read and Ava look at you sump system

Gotta be honest with you on the marisys it's Loud lol constant overflow gurgling and the pump is nowhere near as quiet as a canister filter, oh and the skimmer isn't a spec on my deltec mce 300. Sorry to tell you that,although that I my opinion you personally may find it brilliant as you are used to a sump overflow system? ... Good points though the baskets in there are great plenty of room for media and 940litres per hour isnt too shabby either. I haven't done much lately as I've just put a mortgage down on a new house kinda draining my funds however I added a new gramma yesterday which I may showcase tommorow!
