Lynn's 90 gallons of Sunshine - Page 3

Congrats Lyunn. Can't wait to see this finally come to life.

And yes, I live near Billy. About 1/2 hour away or so.

As for keeping the tank cycled until the pnies arrive, just add a litle frozen or flake food a couple times a week and you'll be fine. About a month or so before you add the ponies, feed the tank just as you would if the ponies where in there and let the cuc take care of the food. This well help to bring you bio filter up to par to handle the substantial increase in bio-load that the ponies will create.

all right awnser this what is the eggcrate for ive bben hearing this alot lately thanx

lcstorc · 08-09-2007, 07:45 PM

Eggcrate is one if the mostful things ever created,

Just for starters all of my tanks have eggcrate for covering It helps prevent jumpers while allowing air exchange and lower temp due to evaporation. In this tank it will be both a covering an be placed on the bottom so the rock does not directly be on the glass. It is also great for shelves for frags and a number of other uses.

I don't know hardly anything about ponies, how much waste do they produce? Compared to a fish... What kind/size of fish...

I've learned from reading this forum that they need very cool water and I'm assuming pristine water.

Is it in the house yet? We want pictures!!!! : )

Get some more porporn and wait a while.

It will come home either late tonight or tomorrow morning. Pics as soon as I can. I promise.

tbittner · 08-10-2007, 06:44 AM

Love your signature line!

lcstorc · 08-10-2007, 06:47 AM

Thank's for the compliment but which part? If it is the racecar line I read that in someones sig on another forum and just plain loved it as well. Other that that just lots of tank threads.

No way I could put the specs for all of the tanks in my sig. Nobody would read it.

tbittner · 08-10-2007, 01:59 PM

I DO love your race car part and it's oh so true!

I was referring to the "My this sig is getting long." part.

I bet if you cleaned out a closet you might have room for one more tank!

(hehehe)

(and yes, I've thought about it...)

This is going to be lots of fun, especially since all I can do is sit and watch!

ROFL Well right now that and running to the lfs is about all I am doing as well. Frank is working on the plumbing and went back to the lfs and bought the fuge kit I decided not to buy (LOL). So I now have not only an Oceanic tank and stand but an Oceanic sump/fuge. He thinks it is 40g. It came with all the plumbing parts so that is why he bought it. I'm not sure which of us is worse.
Oh and I got another clown as well.

Pics of that on the 20g thread when he is acclimated and in the tank.
Pics of the 90 soon I promise. Tonight at the latest.

Melanie · 08-11-2007, 01:18 PM

We are patiently waiting!

tbittner · 08-11-2007, 04:31 PM

Is it tonight yet?
