Any Input is helpfull (my little aquarium set-up) photos

well, i've been running my little set up for a little while now, and am looking for tips and advice for making it a better mushroom producer...i included picts of blue oyster cake on pf tek and on oak sawdust mixed with verm. i also dunk and cold shock for 48hrs now (with very noticeable faster pinsets....within 24 hrs at the most..) do these shrooms look thin to you??? its only been fruiting for maybe a week...and it stays a constant 68-70F and around 90% humidity. I fan as much as possible, and spray twice to 3 times daily. it's hard to see in the pics but there is a 12" airstone being constantly run in the tank, and a heat mat under it set at 70 even.
And here is a neato little home video just for you!! [url=http://s5.photobucket.com/albums/y199/jasonlee247/?action=view?t=Picture018.flv][image]

put airstones in the perlite to increase gas exchange?

oh, sorry i forgot to mention that i have a 12" airstone under the perlite to help with that, and humidity.
any thoughts on the light??? is it enough? is it too much??? i know that your supposed to have cool kelven temps, but it's all i got...

it's a 60 watt plant light, and i made sure that it's far enough away away as to not affect the temps, although i dont know if thats enough light..ah, and it's around 3000Kelvin temp lumens

I think that that might be enough light, is this your fisrt flush or did you have other flushes that look the same?

Gonna have to guess with magicbastard, and say your CO2 is too high.
Get some more FAE in there. Maybe a plant to spruce it up? lol

the block is oak sawdust and vermiculite mixed at 1 part verm to two parts sawdust. you should see how fast that baby colonized... ...i think that the Co2 is high, but the plant light does not create Co2 or any other gas. (thank god)
I did harvest those last night when i got home, and by then they did get signifigantly bigger. (the biggest one was like 3 1/2" long with a quarter sized cap. i think fanning helped. (i had NO idea how damn GOOD those shrooms tasted!!!! i put fried them in butter and garlic and put them on my steak)
on another note has anyone tried to put an air pump INSIDE the aquarium to suck Co2 out??? theoretically it SHOULD work cause Co2 falls, but i've never known anyone who has tried that...

you can buy it at a normal store for personal computers..for my chamber, that's around 50 liters, i used a pc fan large 10 cm(width 1.5 cm). You have to be experienced with the circuit to use a normal pc fan and connect it to your house. When your fan in ready for the use put a piece of polyfill or other filter between the fan and the chamber to prevent big contaminations..

sorry about the delayed reply (vacation).....for a minute i thought that you meant like PC-pressure cooker (i'm a mushroom head, i know. lol) i'll just go to my local radio shack to get one of those. i wonder if they make tiny ones....like 3"x3" or smaller...hmmm..

of course but i advice biggest ones, 'cause when you put the polyfill between the fan and the fruity chamber, the power of the fan is VERY reduced..so a smallest one should be unusefull.right?

i guess that makes sense. i've been taking measurements, and since i have an extra little air pump i think that i'm gonna try putting an air pump inside on a small plate on the perlite inside the aquarium to pump out the co2. that might work too. since i started fanning i've gotten some massive blues, and my little "minilog" is bursting with pins and yungins' now. i'll let you know how my "dual air pump" experiment works out, and if that fails i'll bite the bullet, and get a PC fan i guess. we'll see. i am putting together a nice little hybrid jar tek that will increase yeilds and color soon. that should be very helpfull to others who are looking for the "perfect" oyster jar recipe. i'll post a link to ther when i get it finnished.
If anyone has there own oyster pics please post em' here so i can check them out, and see your happy and delicious results....thanx bros and sistas' 
and happy 420

for some reason April 20th (420) is worshipped by stoners. lol i dunno.
by the way, i got my new tropicaire humidifier hooked up, and put my other air pump INSIDE the terrarium on a dish sitting low on the perlite, and so far its working wonders. (although its only been one day. lol)
