fewskillz Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Just feeding and topping off 5 tanks gets to be a pain in the ass. I'm getting ready to add a sixth (planted 20h FW), and drawing the line in the concrete (sand is too temporary) there. I'm with ya on leaving the house, 3 days tops for me. Link to comment
musthaveitall Posted July 23, 2007 Author Share Posted July 23, 2007 Cool what are you planning on putting in the new FW? Clint Link to comment
musthaveitall Posted July 24, 2007 Author Share Posted July 24, 2007 Just thought I would post updated pictures... (actually I'm bored) Lets start with my latest water conditions... pH ............8.4 Amonia......undetected Nitrite........undetected Nitrate.......undetected Phosphate..undetected Calcium.....450 ppm Salintity.....1.023-1.025 Temp.........79.7 (never changes but maybe 1 degree) Age............27 days And updated livestock list Green implosion paly's GCSP GSP Fire and ice radio active dragon eyes wood polyps jade palys blue/green palys yellow polyps 3 asst. shrooms asst. macro algae red tree fan purple sea whip other unidentified zoa's bunches of little feather dusters (spreading like the plague) but they are a great living filter... and I think that just about does it... On with the pictures!!! Fire & Ice Blue/Green Palys I have no clue! Can some one identify these they have red skirts and a green center with a little red/blue around the center... They are really cool I looked on ZoaID.com but the closest thing I could find was Dragons Breath??? Radio active dragon eyes (these are awsome!!) I would like some reg. dragon eyes w/the orange center... I cant find them so if any of you happen to have a frag of them laying around please let me know!!! Jade Paly's Random shot of my green implosion (top) Yellow (middle) Blue/Green palys (Bottom) Red tree fan (bottom left) and Radio Active Dragon Eyes Top Right. FTS!!!! Let me know what you all think!!! Thanks for looking! Clint Link to comment

musthaveitall Posted July 29, 2007 Author Share Posted July 29, 2007 Well you cant go to the big city for the weekend and not get anything!!! So I got a bunch of new zoa's and soft corals! I got a rock with at least 50 of some kind of small blue zoa's, a rock with 2 tiny little leather heads on it, some green ric's, and a couple other kinds of zoa's. I am taking pictures right now and I will post them on here later today! Clint Link to comment
musthaveitall Posted July 29, 2007 Author Share Posted July 29, 2007 Ok here's the pictures!!! There are a bunch in here that I don't know what they are so please post and give me some identifications!! Lets start with the blue ones I am not sure what they are called but they are bright blue with purple skirts and they are tiny! And these are both from 6 the GSP is the brightest green I have seen, and the others I am not sure about they have the long red skirts, some have red centers and others have blue, green, or orange or a combination?? I was looking od zoaid.com and they look alot like the Flamin' Rainbows... GSP And the other ones These are some other ones that I got, they are greenish brown with neon yellow/green skirts and orange centers the picture does not do justice. w/flash w/out flash Here are the baby leathers The other soft coral I got. Identification??? These kinda looked like mean greens in the store but they look greener here, they have been slow to open... My green implosion and fire and ice Enjoy!! Thanks for looking and let me know what you all think! Clint Too many pictures here are the FTS Clint Link to comment
Maco Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 I have 4 SW tanks in my bed room (125, 60, 72, and a 3 gallon), 6 FW and 1 SW in the living room (FW: 5 29's and a 30 xh SW: 24g AP) and 16 FW tanks in the bacement (all over 30 gallons)... So yah they let me have 27 tanks at a time Clint Holy crap lol btw the tanks looks nice Link to comment
musthaveitall Posted August 1, 2007 Author Share Posted August 1, 2007 Holy crap lolbtw the tanks looks nice Yah I know... Thanks! I just got black sand for my 60 hex and I filled it with water!! And that black sand looks SWEET!!! I am glad that I chose it over white!! And since it does not buffer I am going to have a 20 gallon sump with a bunch of LR LS and crushed coral, not to mention macro algae. I will start a thread for it soon!! Clint Link to comment
mr.fishman01 Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 geez, you run all of your tanks from the money you make from the angelfish breeding? im 16 and i just work to get money for my aquarium. it must be good money. Link to comment
musthaveitall Posted August 1, 2007 Author Share Posted August 1, 2007 geez, you run all of your tanks from the money you make from the angelfish breeding? im 16 and i just work to get money for my aquarium. it must be good money. Well, working at our LFS helps a little... I get everything at cost... And I work for a store credet... But I would say about 60% of it is the angelfish breeding... I have grown out about 300 a week in the past. Now I am down to about that many in a month... The saltwater stuff has kinda taken over Clint Link to comment
mr.fishman01 Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 wow. how much does an angelfish go for? Link to comment
musthaveitall Posted August 1, 2007 Author Share Posted August 1, 2007 wow. how much does an angelfish go for? any where from $0.25 to $80 it depends on the size, and kind. Why do you want some? Clint Link to comment
mr.fishman01 Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 no i was just wondering ive taken all of my FW tanks down. im only doing saltwater. Link to comment
musthaveitall Posted August 2, 2007 Author Share Posted August 2, 2007 no i was just wondering ive taken all of my FW tanks down. im only doing saltwater. I'm slowly headed in that direction... Clint Link to comment

musthaveitall Posted August 4, 2007 Author Share Posted August 4, 2007 BUMP I just got a bunch of LR for my 60 hex I will take some pictures later, I got a 50 lb box from our LFS for $99, but the rocks are like bricks and it only looks like 15lbs. Clint Link to comment
mr.fishman01 Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 what you should do is get that 120 going. Link to comment
musthaveitall Posted August 5, 2007 Author Share Posted August 5, 2007 Well... I have everything needed to get the 60 going... all I have for the 125 is the empty tank, and maybe a heater... Clint Link to comment
musthaveitall Posted August 7, 2007 Author Share Posted August 7, 2007 I just got some new paly's at our LFS today... And they are very cool!!, they have yellow/green skirts with a blueish white center, I will post some pictures later when they are all open! Clint EDIT: I moved them to my AP24 because the were to big for this tank... Link to comment
musthaveitall Posted August 12, 2007 Author Share Posted August 12, 2007 I got some new stuff over the weekend!! I will post pictures in the morning. Clint Link to comment
musthaveitall Posted August 12, 2007 Author Share Posted August 12, 2007 No pictures yet but these ones look like some kind of PE they have not opened all the way yet but they have green mouths. The other ones look like some kind of zoanthid they are purple with orange mouths and green skirts, I will take some pictures... Clint Link to comment
tam Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 those blue zoo's look great! that little 3 gallons gonna get full real quick! Link to comment
musthaveitall Posted August 14, 2007 Author Share Posted August 14, 2007 Yah it's getting super full!! When the coral really starts growing the tank might explode! Yah the ?PE frag I just added has over 50 polyps on it and you know how big PE's are! They still have not opened though, we'll se how they are in a week. I do not want to take pictures until they are open... Well I finally got LR for the 60 hex, I have 115 lbs in it and it looks great! I will take pictures of it when I take pictures of the 3ga.
