Beamsworks 18" led fixture. I'm sure he'll chime in with more detail. Or click into his build thread.

 

[A.D.D.i.c.t.]

He beat me to it.

 

[A.D.D.i.c.t.]

What will our sig line tag be? DBP Club? or something with pimpery associated as is custom with many other groups?

 

[A.D.D.i.c.t.]

Pimping is so played out anyway. I agree, something simple like DBP Club: #X
Unless someone comes up with something mind blowing that we all can agree upon.

 

[A.D.D.i.c.t.]

Yeah, really sorry to hear about what happened with your tank water-kitties. Mine was shipped from AllPet, and the box looked like he11 after UPS got through with it. I've got a pic of it for my future build thread. But the tank is in perfect condition, and I didn't have any plastic straps on mine.

 

[A.D.D.i.c.t.]

Had one for a while, did they change dimensions? Mine was sold and package said 2.3g 5way betta 18x5x7. No ruler to measure though but it isn't the same height as width

I was curious about this too, as there were different reports from various people on the measurements. When mine arrived it states 18x6x7 on the tank sticker, and I measured it at 6" deep. As far as gallonage is concerned, it's debated. They are often referred to as 3 gallon longs, but not really 3 gallons. Anyone know exact gallonage?

 

[A.D.D.i.c.t.]

Once we hit ten members, we really ought to decide on a sig line tag if we're going to have one. Opinions from anyone else?

 

[A.D.D.i.c.t.]

3.2 gallons if it is 18x6x7

2.8 if it is 18x6x6

Well then I guess it is a 3 gallon long! Yay! I like referring to it as such for whatever reason. Awesome.

 

[A.D.D.i.c.t.]

I wish an LFS near me carried these, I'd already have multiples.... Maybe it's best they don't

 

[A.D.D.i.c.t.]

Allpet is where I got mine, that's pretty much the best source out there I know of.
The glass dividers actually fit the top and can be used as tank covers as well. The included glass lid covers the top of the tank completely, whereas the dividers can be used allowing you to custom fit your equipment. Alternatively, you can get handy with a glass cutter and a little ingenuity.

 

[A.D.D.i.c.t.]

What light are you using BeastMaster? How long is it?

 

[A.D.D.i.c.t.]

MABJ runs two red sea filters, same as Azoo Palm filters. Some use an aquaclear 20, the 30 used above would be lots of flow, but awesome with a 20 impeller. You could use a zoomed 501, canister filter. I plan on using a finnex px-360 canister on mines

We're all busy working on our DBP tanks! J/K. I'm sure this thread will go up and down in terms of activity. Any updates to our DBP tanks can be cataloged here with good taste.
Though we do still need to settle on a signature line that every member will use.
Thoughts anyone?

 

[A.D.D.i.c.t.]

Underwater Volcano??? I'm sure whatever you come up with will be epic. Let's get this signature line figured out. MABJ, what say you? Since you essentially pioneered the start of the DBP club.

 

[A.D.D.i.c.t.]

I like it, though we would again be breaking the norm in terms of existing clubs. No pimpery, and then no member #'s. Then again, the numbers really only matter to those who were some of the original members. Once it gets to 4444, etc, who cares anymore?
How about just DBP Club, hyperlinked? And not everyone knows how to hyperlink, including myself until recently hehe

 

[A.D.D.i.c.t.]

How about this? Jumping smiley optional.

VVVVV

 

[A.D.D.i.c.t.]

No problem Scottyhorse, I'd love to detail why. The DBP tank will have much higher build quality than the Petco tank, no offense to the Petco. The glass has slightly less iron, making it clearer. This is noticeable and appreciated. Also, the black silicone they use is much cleaner and better looking than sloppy clear silicone. Check out my thread in my sig for a few pictures.

 

[A.D.D.i.c.t.]

There is a link earlier in the thread. Allpet.com

Tapatalk people can't see jack diddly unfortunately.

But I'm fine with either DBP Club or DBPC Member.

I know right! I tried every setting on Tapatalk to try to see peoples sig lines. It makes it so much easier to see their build threads and get a taste of their personality. I like just: DBP Club! that's what is in my sig, hyperlinked, with jumping smiley
Such is life.

Here is the link Scotty

It's the 5 way betta tank. It says 2.3 gallons, we think it's 3.2. Who cares, tank is awesome. Buy it now.
