fish question
I recently broke down my 40. I couldnt sell my fish and decided to keep them, They are in a 10 gal.
I have some LR zoos and rics a coupleof small leather frags and a couple of small shrooms. I have a 4" open brain and a blue linka star. The fish are six line wrase lawn mower blenny sand sifting goby fals perc. The fish are all under 2" Is this way to much for the 10g? What should I take to the LFS? Also what is a fair amount of water change and at what frequency should i change for this size tank. I use to do 3 gal weekly for the 40. I would also like to know if people are skimming as well. |

IMO i would take the lawnmower back,there will not be enough food for him.

If your gonna do a diy fixture,& your set on the 65k,i would suggest adding an attinic bulb,because the 65k will be yellow like you thought,there was a thread on here about 1 month ago with pix,but i cant remember where it was,thats how i know its yellow.

Nice lights I think I can make something like it. Let me see what the parts are goona run me. If it cost me just about the same Ill just buy em. Im taking most of the fish out tommorow. I may stay with the 6 line. or trade everything for a yellow goby. I like those.
