Power is out. Might as well do a quick update. Here's a quick shot of the castexi hybrid. She gets better by the day:

Next to her is a newly acquired castexi female. Here's another pic of her with two males I picked up as well.

Hope you guys enjoy!
 
These are very nice. Great collection. Makes me wish I had a large enough tank to keep some of these.
 
Thanks! Definitely some of the bigger species here. Currently in over 500 gallons combined. Next upgrade will be to 12x6x3 coming next year.
Would love to see that tank.
 
Looking great!
Love the first Castexi Hybrid ;)

Great looking rays

Love the castexi and hybrid! Im jelous!

Some amazing rays!

Thanks everyone! Power is still out, just over 50 hours at this point. Really happy I put a lot of effort in designing my backup plan, and keeping my energy usage low. Right around 1000w total (800w for heat alone) for a little over 600 gallons worth of system.

Also, my UPS battery backup saved my *** big time since I set my ap40 that solely aerates the tanks on it. It will run that pump for ~3 hours. Combined with my emergency call out alert that tells me as soon as the power goes out, I was able to get home to get the gas generator up and running long before the UPS ran out of juice.
