What is that in the right column of the middle photo, which has stars?

Cheryl

Boxing shrimp. I have a pair. They boss everyone around.

Yarik, very high phosphates, try to reduce feeding by about 2 times. Try to achieve no more than 0.15.

To the right, shrimp in the center, and who is in the far right photo?

Friends, I have both good and bad news. The good news is that I am moving to Mariupol, the bad news is that I will have to sell part of my corals, fish, and equipment. And possibly the entire aquarium. If anyone is interested in trying their hand at "the sea," this is a great opportunity to do so at affordable prices and with a well-established system. I won't be able to ship anything. If delivery is possible, it will only be to Mariupol. Feel free to write to me in private messages - I will respond to everyone. Me.

Hello! They say that moving is like two fires... God forbid, of course! It's a pity that things turned out this way with your sea... you wanted that sea so much, and in Mariupol you'll have to start everything from scratch... What a shame... Well, don't lose heart, hang in there! I also have a mess; I have to sell the aquarium I bought (Rio-180)... Best regards.

Here in Mariupol, once it takes you in, it will charm you with its discussions.

Tiffany5069

Thank you! You and Sasha really know how much I wanted a marine aquarium. But I'm still trying to figure something out - maybe I'll just remove the corals and a few fish, turn off the external filter, and take out the skimmer. That is, I'll simplify the system as much as possible.

Thomas1044

I sympathize... (you have spent so much effort on this sea... it's a pity to sell it...

Michael5242

Whoa!...

Mark9853

What prevents you from engaging with the sea in Mariupol?

Colin1418

I am from Mariupol and I would be happy to acquire someone :-). There are also sea lovers in Mariupol!!!

Joseph591

I am also from Mariupol. And I have a sea in 650 liters. If you want, get in touch and we can chat.

Ronald

Why cold-water specifically? It will be a hassle. A good refrigerator for it will cost around 1000 bucks. Plus, I'm not sure that 3 lobsters will survive in 200 liters. Most likely, "only one will be left."

Jonathan6173

Let's get in touch! I would love to see your sea and chat. It's really necessary. I'll send you my mobile number, or you can send me yours.

Travis572

Cold-water, because these lobsters-crayfish-lobsters don't live at high temperatures, as I understand, the ideal for them is 2°C, but they feel pretty good at 12°C. Regarding the refrigerator: are there non-branded ones? And why wouldn't they survive? They should, I think I've seen that. By the way, do they need aeration?

Michelle9986

By the way, what makes cold-water fish more problematic? Is it just maintaining the temperature? Or are there other difficulties that arise?

Anthony

In general, it's clear. I will start working, and if I encounter problems, which is likely, I will write and ask. I revive lobsters for 15 minutes, alternating between immersing them and pulling them out of cold water. At first for a short time, then for longer, longer, and longer. They come to life - they start moving their legs and claws vigorously :-)). They probably die due to the water; I don't know the exact composition of the seawater. Although I do know, buying the components is a problem. They are temperamental animals. Thank you once again.

Sarah7284

It should be aesthetic. And in the freezer chest - is it funny and makeshift? Can you tell me more about the reefs - what are they and what do they look like? Are they expensive at all?

Lori4746

Hello. Send your phone to PS or let me know when you are at work. (If the 200L are the ones where the trout currently lives, everything could turn out really well with the "sea.")

Adam

Yeah, we don't take the easy way out. I think it makes sense to start by buying the branded lobster salt and preparing seawater according to the instructions on the package. From $5 to $10 per liter. You can see what it looks like, for example, here:
