Re: The 90G Build.

I guess Im kinda lucky but there Is a draw back, The colorful fish like tangs and angels or any fish In that matter are very very hard to get. They are way to fast. The gobies are still challenging but are little more easy seeing that they stick along the surface of what there on and really dont swim into the open. I use a small net and a slurpgun and they still outrun the intake pressure of the gun.

Re: The 90G Build.

I had once the same problem, I lowered the water and got a new trash bag. put the bag in the tank.It swells up and keeps them towards one end of the tank. which they may stillbe fast but you can slowly bring the bag closer as you coner and catch. Just go slow, and take your time.

Re: The 90G Build.

AdvanceAquatics the fish I catch and that Im trying to catch are out In the ocean, not a tank. Although I wish I could use your method out there.

Re: The 90G Build.

Got some new tankmates, figured Its been awhile since I added anything. Another snorkle dive and managed to pull 3 banded shrimp and a real pretty urchin.

About the size of a baseball.

Re: The 90G Build.

Thanks awesome, getting to dive for livestock...I think if I could do that I would probably only come out of the water to check out my tank....and I would have to triple the size! Nice work.

Re: The 90G Build.

Your urchin is GORGEOUS! I want to dive someday to catch some things for my tank. Maybe we could talk about it in detail sometime. I have two boats and all my SCUBA gear. I have been certified for 10 years and have done about 10 dives (ouch!)

Thank you caught It wondering around out In the open In about 2 feet of water, good thing I was swimming and not walking around lol. 2 boats wow Im still working on on getting my first, although I do have friends with boats so maybe thats why Im holding off. You must have some nice spots to dive over there but Is me or Is the water on the west coast allways a little merky do to the gulf. I go over ever once and awhile but the water allways seems not to clear when I go but maybe Its just my luck. Good luck with your tank I was trying to follow your thread, seems like you have everything back on track.

Still trying to find out, but I have a close eye on It and It seems pretty peaceful.
