      It shattered one side when it hit. Didn't go thru just destroyed a panel. Oh welk $#it happens!

      So iv thouggt of a simple cool and easy idea for some hiding things for fry. Instead of buy more rock ill go to HD and make pvc things of various size and glue them together. Simple and cheap and itll give the fry lots of places to feel secure.

        Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
        Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.

            Make sure to search the fine print for spray can attack coverage.

                  Ok so this weekend i did work on this project. Got all my pvc glued together, painted, and attached plants to them for a decorative look and added color. Filters are all running in other tanks to start the building of bacteria.

                        Yea, going to leave them bare so i can clean em easy. Just use a small hose to suck up all excess food and poops. Not trying to make show tanks outa these just to raise n sell fry from.

                            K. So this weekend plans are to fill at least three of these up and going with filters n water. Pvc has dried these last few days. Pretty soon the fry factory will be open for business.

                            Fry iv got - brevis, orange leleupi, multifasciatus, compressicps.

                            Soon to come- ornatipinnis, and caudopunctatus

                                Yes they should sink. I used to work in a shop that used them.
