Lalani Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 How ya been, Chris? Added any new tanks lately? Quote Link to comment
fewskillz Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Doing okay, Kim, how about you? No new tanks...not setup, anyways. The BB 10 is the newest setup. I did pickup a 15 tall this weekend that I'm probably going to drill and move the 10 into, for stability's sake. Believe it or not, I'm actually starting to decrease the number of tanks laying around. Traded the 93 cube (tank only) for a complete system 40b, custom cabinet, sump, skimmer, pumps, lights, everything; even trade. Should have that system sold tomorrow. Also have a few bites on the 75 that's for sale. So if this week goes as planned I'll be down to 16 tanks, from a high of 20. The goal is just the nano and the 180, plus a QT with a few backups in storage. I'm actually looking forward to only having those, it is time to simplify things a bit. How's your 10? 1 Quote Link to comment
Lalani Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Only 16 tanks, geez. Things are well, just concentrating on school stuff. Taking the PCAT next month! And the 10 is well, everything is growing in nicely. The cyano has just been a pita so I've been stepping up the water changes. 1 Quote Link to comment
fewskillz Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Cyano is no fun. I'm in the final stages of a cyano battle in the 180. I'm not sure which blow did it in, but I think I can cease fire and routine maintenance will keep it at bay. Good luck on your test! Quote Link to comment
Lalani Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Yay! What have you been doing to fight the cyano? I know my biggest problem is probably the light bulbs... they're around 3 or 4 years old now. Quote Link to comment
BibleSue Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I got rid of my cyano when I took down my tanks! I firmly believe the winter heating caused mine. I got it bad every winter. 1 Quote Link to comment
Lalani Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Ha! I just like having a tank around. If I take down any tank it'll be the freshy. Once the betta fish gets rehomed, hopefully the rcs get re-established and clean up the algae. Hi Sue Quote Link to comment
nano-paul Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Whats going on in here? 1 Quote Link to comment
fewskillz Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I think my old lamps were a huge culprit, too. Along with the heat from my halides. I switched to T5s, solving both of those problems. Then I started rinsing my frozen food, doing bigger water changes, manual removal, and I think what really got me over the edge was a Phosphate sponge. I've got a GFO reactor that's going online this week, to help me stay ahead. Might even do that today. 1 Quote Link to comment

Weetabix7 Posted December 25, 2015 Author Share Posted December 25, 2015 Merry Christmas Weetie! Love that you've dredged up this thread! Lol, thanks. Hadn't bothered before this cause not many of the old-timers are still around, figured I didn't have enough reason. 1 Quote Link to comment
Pinner Reef Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Lol, thanks. Hadn't bothered before this cause not many of the old-timers are still around, figured I didn't have enough reason. Nah, we're still around. If only lurking 1 Quote Link to comment

Pinner Reef Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 What has the industry come to when 9yrs old makes us the Old timers? I mean, I know we've been progressing at a exponential rate in this hobby, but seriously? 1 Quote Link to comment

I mean, I know we've been progressing at a exponential rate in this hobby, but seriously? Yeah, but.... things really have been progressing and changing at a pretty rapid rate. I've only been away from the site and Reefing for 2 yrs or so, but I'm having to do research on what is available now. I am finding myself VERY pleasantly surprised at how much more is available for Pico tanks now, equipment wise. I think I actually started my first Nano Tank even before this site was started, '94 or so. So I guess I'm a REAL old timer, lol. Sup weetie! Merry Christmas! To you and your family too! 1 Quote Link to comment
