I got some cool ideas and lets findout if it works.

[fishesRdelicious]

sounds pritty cool, what are you going to use for the metal. i still have some of that stainless steel welding rod.

[zooqi]

give me a call tomorrow and I want to work on this and plan it. I might be needing some of those stainless steel and I thought you left it here. I will be going to take kids to see Santa in the morning but then I will be home the rest of the day.

[fishesRdelicious]

sounds good, i have 4 or 5 of them still and will bring them tomorrow. what do plan on using as the electricity, it has to be very low voltage

[zooqi]

I got an idea and it will not be like normal one one voltage. I just have to get few stuff from Radio Shake and it has to be planed and will have good ideas. I need your help to put few holes in acrylic. You will like the idea.

Hey Mo
Walt Smith has been working on this for a while also. You know he likes to talk about his projects. He might be able to give you some ideas.

Good luck
Bill

Bill, we started building what we need last night and got most of the parts for it and few left.
Is Walt doing this in open water or confined ? I have his phone number and might call him this week. Thanks for the tip

We started putting a big refrence database together and thanks to students who are helping. This is an idea of the main page and still more to add. We are getting the photos from all over and posting them after permission and will be adding more info to each one of them.
This is just an example and final won't be posted untill is done completly. We are asking people around if we can use pictures in their gallery..

example front page and more to add (http://reefnest.com/id/fish/index.html)



and one example and more info will be added and more pictures. I just threw this together quick

example (http://reefnest.com/id/fish/clownfish/falsepercula.html)

We will be shooting tons of pictures from now on and if you have any picture in your gallery please let us know that is ok to use them and we will go through and see if we need any of them. Thanks for your help and support.

Ooops, that was suppose to be a thread and will started now in the forum.

Ok, I have an electrician who might be able to help with that and meeting him on Wed. Thanks to fishesRdelicous and I will fill the tank with water today to test it. The bars are there and he is done a great job.
fisheRdelicious.. did you find out how many volts ?

[fishesRdelicious]

"Brown estimates the amount of electricity used in a week is equal to burning a single 60-watt bulb for a month."
so it is not very much i assume
i think that is part of the experiment, to find out what wattage works best.

[zooqi]

Yea, i did read that and that is like nothing and we will have to figure that out. I will bring that up to my friend and see.
