My office fluval Chi - 5.5g

[dherrera83]

Hey,

This is my office tank. For lighting im using a par38 bulb i got used from someone on here. The filter is a hang on fluval C3 i had lying around. Live rock and sand i pulled from my tank. I also took out some snails and hurmit crabs from my tank and placed them in this little tank. Soon to be a mini reef.

Heres a really bad cell phone pick. I will start putting softies in sometime next week or so.

Enjoy!

But the lone damsel looks cute!

But it maybe difficult if I add another fish... Besides this little guy will get bigger. I am going to go with a pair of clowns instead.

Update 8/2011

I have removed the damsel and sent him to his new home where he will have much more space to run and play.

So now i picked up two baby clowns from Wesley who is a great guy and most importantly very knowledgable. He is def a clown fish pimp... lol

Not only did he provide the fish but food, and given my situation a small dip n pour that i used to drill holes through. The reason for that was due to limited time. This fish are going into my chi thats is at my office in manhattan and i was running late so i needed to take them home and place them in the main tank till monday.

Here are some shots of the new addition to my 5.5g chi.

i like the label sticker. "DO NOT TAB ON GLASS" lol. im guessing you had people do that to the tank huh lol....but anyways i like the clowns it brings back memories when i got my first baby clown =(... lol

 

[dherrera83]

its just incase they didnt know... On the weekend i had i jumper. One of the baby clowns decided to jump out the tank. Found him the next morning dead stiff...

But everything is doing fine now so far. I have a bunch of pods that it seems they are taking over the tank... lol I hope the clowns eats them but from the looks he's not into them. Not even the hermit crabs cant help keep there numbers down. They're on the glass and shells of the snails...

do a small cover for the office tank off plexi glass

 

[dherrera83]

Nah man. I dont want to cover the tank. I like the rimless look. I just keep the water level alittle lower now. maybe that will help.

 

[xxxAngeloxxx]

Interested in a pair of baby clowns. How can i get in contact with Wesley?

 

[Jzhou]

Do a member search and type in his name. After that just send him a pm, I'm still waiting for him to let me know on when he gets some black percs.
