Re: GSP PICTURES!

I have bought a seafood variety bag from Publix that had shrimp, octopus,squid, and mussels. They also have bags of frozen red crayfish, i'm not sure what kind. But I also breed marbled crayfish that I give them sometimes.

Re: GSP PICTURES!

Thanks!

its a 6' 100 gallon, so its 72"x18.5"x18.5". I feed them a diet of crayfish, shrimp, squid, mussels, various seafoods. sometimes they get live marbled crayfish and pond/ramshorn snails.

GSP PICTURES!

Thought I'd show off my puffers. Been in this tank for about 1.5 months, doing really well :)

Just built the canopy, not 100 percent finished obviously, the doors need to be put on hinges mostly. Sorry, not the best pictures

pump for protein skimmer

so i may be buying a used coralife super skimmer 125, that doesn't come with the pump. My question is, can any pump be used or does it need to be the one made for it specifically?
