New Shark Pool

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I guess im comfortable with the ghetto-ness of the pool now. HAHA. I just made a temporary refugium for Live rock and Chaeto and Caluerpa in the center of the pool. What did i use to make it? A laundry basket and a laundry hamper. haha ill post pics soon.
Hopefully its only temporary. Im hoping to get an external refugium or DSB and a UV going soon.
 
I went all over the place looking for mangrove plants to put through the holes in the baskets. To give it that Island look. haha Anyone know if Coralline algae will grow on Housewares? Anyway here it is. And as i said, its temporary.....

Nice job I don't think it's "ghetto" just cost effective
 
Just wanted to clear something up. I didnt want to add both sharks or any sharks to the pool yet. I felt it was too soon. Especially to add both at the same time. The reason they had to get in the pool so fast was because the tank where i work reserved for large swimming sharks got a new resident, and if they didnt come out, my poor little smoothies would have been dinner, for a 2 foot (roughly) black tip. The BTR went after them during feeding, and my boss said they had to go.

Knock on wood, theres been no ammonia or nitrite spikes. Ive been checking numerous times a day.
 
I was thinking they were in quick, considering how careful you had been.

Black Tips are the stuff man, I would have one in there if that pond was mine.
