My Ocean In A Box :)

Tapped into my water supply by going into a cold water supply the same as you would connect your washing machine to.. Didnt want the self taping unit because i live in a rented house.

If you get a few spare mins could you explain how you did this, I also live in a rented house which is why I don't have a RO unit but if there is a clean way of doing it then I can.

No problem mate I will disconnect it all later and take some pictures of the bits of plumbing I bought etc

Was just about to make a picture gallery for you when i came across this on ebay

i wish i had seen this before plumbing mine in cant get an easier connection that that will fit on an outside tap and a washing machine valve under your sink.

Added a couple of new fish yesterday I got a little yellow rock Goby and a very small Scopas tang


Now before i get the tang police on my back he is very small at the moment and i will be upgrading to a 6 foot tank at least in the next year or so. If for any reason my upgrade is delayed i have been assured i can return him down the line for store credit of his value. He looks lost in my tank so think he will be very happy with the space for the next year.

Oh and i got a Conch aswell to work over my sand there eyes are amazing


Will get some pictures up tomorrow when my new camera arrives. Old camera is annoying so decided on a new one.

For a start my old one is pink! and eats batteries like there going out of fashion. So i have purchased a shiny new one that is rechargable and stuck the old one on ebay for £30 the mrs picked the old camera before anyone has a dig
