Re: 90 Gallon Update!

The holes are only in the sides. The moss clumps together, so it really doesn't fall out. And thanks :D

Re: 90 Gallon Update!

36x18x36, right? Man, I'm sooooo jealous. I can't wait to see some pics. :D That's actually my dream tank for poison dart frogs, but that's not until the future *stares dreamily into space*

Re: 90 Gallon Update!

What are the crabs going in? Yeah, I agree, the tank height can be annoying :|

Re: Setting up a corner tank

Haha, no they don't dig. If they did I would be worried. I have heard of crabs ripping through, so I would recommend using the needlepoint canvas. You can get it at craft stores or online if you don't already have it. :D

Re: 90 Gallon Update!

It's egg crate, a type of light diffuser found at hardware stores. It's commonly used in false bottoms, and I simply cut it to the size I wanted and zip-tied some needlepoint canvas (that cross stitch stuff) to the egg crate :)

Re: New Tank [wip]

I'm yet to drill some in my new lids, but in the last one, I just used a regular drill bit and tried to make the holes line up in a straight line. Just make sure the holes aren't too big, in case a crabby tries to escape :)

Re: 90 Gallon Update!

Yeah, yeah, I gotta wait for those Christmas funds to do the FW :). All the stuff at the bottom is aquarium siliconed into the bottom, left to cure for about half a week. When I applied the silicone, I used a bag of exo terra river bed sand and pressed some in so that it would look beachy :D Thanks ...

Re: New Tank [wip]

I would go for 100. I actually had a 40B before the 90 gallon, and the 100 was perfect :). Also, I forgot to tell you that yes, that is the lid I was talking about

Re: New Tank [wip]

I would go with the bigger shower caddies. Pretty much my entire second level consists of two corner caddies as shell shops, exactly like the bed bath and beyond one, and then two more that look like this http://www.amazon.com/InterDesign-Suction-Shower-Basket-Clear/dp/B000KKN0TS/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&...

90 Gallon Update!

I gots me some pics for you guys/gals. I've been doing a little more work on the 90 gallon, with the help of my b-day money, so I thought that I would let you all see :D A couple weeks ago I ordered off Craigslist something like 33 small plastic baggies of organic hermit crab food: http://i874.photo...

Re: Sad Day

I'm so sorry Calla :cry: I've also had issues with E's, particularly with molting issues. It's always tough to lose a crabby, and I offer you my condolences :grouphug:
