Really short issue this month folks because I am very pressed for time. Let's hope I can beat the clock and actually get this one out while it's still June!
I have lots of emails to reply to and I will reply to them, just be patient a little while longer
No time to work on a Tank Showcase this month. I will make it up to you next month.
Doin' It Yourself!
Brine Shrimp Cultivation Unit
Edited By Elizabeth M. Lukan, 5/7/05
Drill a hole in the cover big enough for the air line to fit through.
Here is the cover after I have glued and siliconed it into place.
Drill a hole in the bottom of the pop bottle for a vent to let out the air. When first
filling this up make sure to plug the hole with your finger.
This is all I had currently to make a drain for it. The black one come from the bottle,
the long clear one on the right goes to the pump and the short one is the drain for
taking out some of the shrimp.
The shelf I made from some scrap wood. All I did was drill a hole in one for the bottle to sit in.
Here's the completed unit. Seems to work great so far!
