Added a second ATS

a2-18.jpg

just my experience on the ikea lamp holders :)

the holder (black part) seems to hold pretty well from rusting even though it gets salt creep really easily on the insdie. however the silver extension which holds the head does rust quite easily when not taken care off and even though being further away it is more unlike to get salt creep.

the bulbs will get salt on them most quickly so you may want to clean them on a weekly basis to maximize your light outputs :thumbsup: having said that, the florescent bulbs you're using now aren't at their best as you can see from the light holder (the insides aren't reflective). thus on your next bulb change or something you might want to give these bulbs a try :D bulbs which comes with their own reflectors!

Wow,looks like dragon,very nice,what do you feed him?

not really feeding them, they are eating pods and occasionally the frozen food that i feed the rest.

btw, one dragonface pipefish had died. Prossible due to the injury it suffer on its back, not sure how it got injured though.
