Re: 55 + 90 gallon builds!
Thanks for the tips! We did actually build a stand, and it works very well! The floor has been holding great, but being cautious never hurts! I actually have it set up now and have tenants.. sorry for the lack of pictures... :oops: I will certainly take some! I did a quick set up, as I caught wind o...

New Crabs - ID Help?
Hiya! I finally got 3 new tenants in my 90 gallon! I was intending on picking up 2 adoptees, but it fell through and another crabber I believe is getting them :) I got them from a Pet Supplies Plus in the area, because I had gone a week earlier to check it out, and all of their crabs were powder blu...

Bad Situation.. Move and Isolate?
I hope this is the right place, and I apologize if it isn't! This is not my crab, but my cousin's. He has a 20 long with 4 crabs. One of which, Bison, is either extra-large, or a small Jumbo. A few weeks ago, I helped him mix some sand and EE sub. e has about 3-4 inches, as that was all the sand ava...

Re: Mosquitoes In My Crabitat?
Hi there! I'm not 100%, but I think your main concern is your water dishes, as they lay their eggs in standing sources of water. To combat that, I would advise that you do frequent water changes until the mosquitoes are no longer an issue.

Re: Shiny Sand
Hello! Are the shiny pieces you are seeing very small? If so, I believe that is normal for the silica-based play sand, it sounds like nothing to worry about!
Re: Es
!!!!!! That is the most precious crab I've ever seen! I can't wait to get some E's!

Re: 55 + 90 gallon builds!
There is a crawlspace underneath that section of the house, unfortunately.. However, it's small, and I think there is another place for the tank where it doesn't extend under. I'll definitely talk to someone!

Re: 55 + 90 gallon builds!
Oh man... I am so sorry about all the posting, but I have a few questions. My first one is regarding the weight of the tank. I found a number putting my empty tank at 182 pounds. I do believe this is an older aquarium, and it has 3/8 in. glass thickness. We are putting it downstairs, as weight is a ...

Re: 55 + 90 gallon builds!
Awesome! I'll probably straight up bury mine then, I think it looks nice [emoji4] I'll add my update here: I picked up the tank today! 90s are uh.... large... and heavy, but it's in great shape! We will be building a stand for it (and by we, I mean my dad) since it didn't come with one, which is ok....

All these posts, wow! Anyways, great news! Tomorrow afternoon I'll be picking up a 90 gallon! I thought it was a 75, but it's 48 x 18 x 25, making it awesome! It was listed for only 25 dollars too! :shock: Anywho, I have gotten a few Amazon gift cards for graduation presents, and want to buy an Ultr...

Re: 55 + ??? gallon builds!
Well.... it's been a little while, and sadly, not a whole lot has gotten done.. But hey, perfection takes time! :hlol: With my cousin's tank, I went over and we mixed extra sub for his current tank, bringing the humidity up to 85%! His new 55 has gotten no work done, and we only have 2 of the 4 bags...
