    Hahaha!

    Yes, this is just an external breeder box It's very clear because I use an old credit card to scrape off any algae! Just a bit of fun play-on-words!

    Because the air pump can drive an entire breeder box volume every 6 minutes, technically the water in this breeder box is refreshed 10 times an hour! Let's have some fun with our breeder boxes!

    Bro icefire, the temperature is the same as the main tank.. 24-25deg!

    Good idea bro....
    I though it was a small tank....

    Re: 1L Pico tank for my BDS flowerheads

    This is a very nicely done up 'tank'... But guys, lets not forget that the main water volume is the main tank which is supplying the 'clean' water to this breeding box and the main tank is also filtered with a good filtration system... haha...

    bro ecalyte, when can i go your house to play with your shrimps? ahem... (armed with net & container can? hehe)

    Pass you a big wood and can cut it for all the breeding box.

    Looking forward to that bro. Maybe you can start a new form of pico tanks, one that is "supported" by a giant tank somewhere else?
    Eg. Have a pico tank on the office table, but with a hidden tank that increases the water volume & filtration, aka pico tank with sump!
