Can anyone tell me what breed these are?

Bald Eagles. Well, that's what they look like.

What kind of filtration are you running. I'm hoping to get rid of my store bought filter and build a sump/fuge for my 50 gallon.

I have a 125 gallon tank in the family room with an overflow going to a basement 95-gallon refugium/sump. A 3600 gal/hr pump returns the water to the tank.

The tank has an anaerobic bottom chamber and a deep sand bed. I seldom do water changes because the natural cycle keeps up with breaking down the ammonia produced by the fish.

The lighting is 4 160 watt fluorescent tubes which provide enough light for the soft coral.

I think we need a closed group fb page. It would be a lot more organized. Individual posts would have spaces for their own comments. I have a farm page if everyone wants to use it. But I think It would have to be set up as a group. It is really nice having you all on here though. You all have helped us through a lot of chicken issues.

Then we would have 2 places to follow. This one is enough of a time-eater.

CRSelvey - I re-heally like your coop! Shake shingles are the perfect touch.

Well, I had two eggs that were laid from a top a roost this morning (newbies!), so if my assumptions are correct I now have all five of my 22 week old pullets laying. Hurray! Next in line is my 18 week old RIR and my lil sebright girls.

Great news! Can you have your girls talk to mine please?
