RC Submarines

Wow, what you said about using the tiles to make the substrate weigh the bowl down, that makes so much sense. That makes me feel a lot better about this because once I cover keeping the enclosure down then I can move on to aeration. Also with this method I connect the enclosure to tiles and not the glass of the aquarium.

I'm going to do some shopping over the next couple of days, if I make any progress i'll let you know. I'm looking on superpages.com for the Illuminations business but no luck so far, i'm sure i can find some house hold items stores to visit though.

Me and my brother are having an iron chef competition. He made chicken fajitas with honey mustard and perogies yesterday. Today i'm making Bleu cheese burgers and potato soup.

I'll be going to home depot over the next couple of days to pick up tiles as well. I have a big tube of silicone aquarium sealant, I dunno if thats the right thing for gluing objects to the tiles. In my head right now I am thinking tubing from the glass object runs to the tiles to secure it. Rocks on top of the glass object help keep pressure off the tiles assuming they aren't enough by themselves to do the job.

If you have any more advice please give it

have you ever considered putting the bowl in without vents and such and using plants to create oxygen? I once did a project in Bio where we put some lizards and bugs into a bug bottle planted with plants collected from around the school and sealed the bottle. Everything lived for the two months that we had them in there untill we released them. Just something to consider.

Thats actually very interesting. I may add some plants to the land portion of the atlantis. I'm surprised some plants can create enough oxygen to sustain small animals. I don't know that much about it though.
 
Isn't a Giant Hand already frightening,much less a submarine,my flowerhorns like to play with the floating fake fish,thinking it was real.

Someone on another board or email list was talking about it last week and I saved it. There are also spyshops with waterproof tiny cameras that I want to try to mount on the sub for a real "fisheye view"!

See this guy knows whats up

I personally like the nikko sea shark a little better but its nice how the yellow sub is very aquarium safe, dunno with the nikko.

The picture on the yellow sub website makes me wish I still had my goldfish. I'm sure they would be friendly to a sub
 
does anyone watch the discovery channel? They had a remote control fish on there in an aquarium. Called it a pike not sure what they are using it for but i think it had a camera in it. Looked pretty cool bit big for a small aquarium but still cool

NOT! Not even! Any time I see the "M3" logo - by the way - why does it show up only on this product picture - 'added' to the original picture??? Any time I see M3, I know what I went through trying to buy online from them... Never again. :mad:
