Did you make this pump? If so, how did you do the dual head peristaltic?

No Cody. Bought it from eBay. Right now just use the larger flow pump to feed these anthias.

Sorry for don't update this.
I put the dos pump and two hose that came from the mini fridge. Inside is the container with food and other hose to put air inside to move the food before start pull to tank.
It worked very good on my vacations

Ah ok. Can you link it to me via pm?

Also, are those purple queen Anthia eating? I hear they're very difficult to get to eat, but man are they gorgeous.

Very cool! How long can the frozen food stay in the fridge before it starts going bad?

Glad it worked out for you.

From the pictures looks like food settled on the bottom. Was there any blockage in the tubes? What were you feeding?
