Last night I decided to bring the two survivors in. I had two 5 gallon buckets that were all ready to go with a nice water temperature of 75 degrees. They seemed pretty happy to be in an ice bath after boiling for a day and seeing all their buddies die. I used to have lids covering both my fish tank and sump I took the lid off of the fish tank this morning before I went to work, and came home to the water at 96 degrees. I noticed that my sump air temp was pretty high while I was taking some pictures of the system, so I decided to take that lid off too.
My two minnows are still kickin' it; I'm worried that they are starving because I have not seen them eat anything. I tried feeding them fish flakes but they had no interest.
Here are the pictures I captured this afternoon:
Grow bed is 6'x2'x10", 55 Gallon fish tank and 30 gallon sump.
I used all 1" PVC piping.
My lava rock media growing some moss.
My siphon would not work without this elbow.
