Update.
I dipped the acro. No more redbugs, but no polyp extension, either. The pink poci frag retracted its polyps two days after joining the tank, still hasn't extended yet, but it doesn't look sick, so waiting on that one too. New stuff. Lots!! From BibleSue, I got some blue cloves From Live Aquaria, couple of new snails and a mandarin. Woo HOO!!!!!! So delicate, so pretty. While I have no out and out complaints about the packaging/shipping from LA, I have to say the corals from Bible Sue were more securely packed. Last night my frag of watermelon (I think) zoas fell onto the frag of GSP. Guess who won? Unfortunately, the watermelons had just begun a spectacular comeback. I'm hoping they'll begin to thrive again, but I have to admit, I am no zoa queen. Pics to follow soon, have to sort them and upload to photobucket. Thanks for reading, ~Anne -------------------- |

BibleSue is an excellent shipper.
Guess who taught her? Actually, we both learned from Mvite and did little things to improve on his method as we gained more experience. The Watermelon Zoas will probably be fine, I'd do an Iodine/lugol's type dip on 'em just to help em recover. -------------------- Usually, what you wish for doesn't fall in your lap; it falls somewhere nearby, and you have to recognize it, stand up, and put in the time and work it takes to get to it. -Neil Strauss ![]() |

Thanks, L!
All I can say is you must be an excellent teacher. Funny, I'm happy that the tank doesn't look so sparse anymore, but as it fills it gets more difficult to place things--and I spend a lot more time cursing this tank's depth; wet up to my armpit and straining my shoulder every time I need to do something. -------------------- |

Looks good. I had poci under a 250w halide and placed it near the bottom and off to the side a bit. Not in the shade, just low and away. Now that I've switched to T-5's I've got a poci frag about halfway up sitting out in the open. I had great growth in the halide situation and have had moderate success with the T-5 situation. For some reason they're really delicate for me. Good luck with it.

Things are looking good! I know what you mean about being arm deep in this stuff.... my 29g is so tall compared to my 20L tank. Anytime I want to do something toward the bottom of the tank, I basically have to prepare for diving!

Hi Tyler! Thanks! Haha I can just imagine how funny it looks! Luckily I built my stand low enough that the rim is just below my shoulder, so I don't need any help getting over it. It's still rough reaching the bottom though, so usually once something goes there, it stays there. -------------------- ![]() 20L - Up and running since 1 April 2009.

My, fancy meeting you here, Nate.
I think my photography motto is quantity, not quality. Catchy, no? Redbugs are gone, it only took one dip with the Interceptor. Now I'm just waiting for the polyps to come out. It's growing, and has kept its color, so I figure it's still ok. Tee hee, I'm guessing you're 5 or 10" taller than I am, Tyler. If the rim of my 24" high tank was below my shoulder, my dog would think I had given him a big bowl. No one else thought the pigeon on top of the stone bird was cool? -------------------- |

Great new stuff Anne!

No one else thought the pigeon on top of the stone bird was cool? Haha big dog bowl... yeah, that would be a trip! I'm right around 6', but my tank doesn't sit all that far from the floor. If I remember right, my stand is between 30 and 36" tall. Oh, and I liked the birdie picture too!
