Sexy Shrimp Posted August 10, 2008 Author Share Posted August 10, 2008 I use the garlic to encouraged the fish to eat when I first got them. Now if I take it out they wont eat Want a dog/cat treat recipe? 1 lambs liver Place in a pan and add enough water to cover Add 1 clove of crushed garlic and 1 stock cube Boil for 30 mins until overcooked and rubbery remove from the water and allow to cool Slice into 1 cm thick strips and then cubes Bake in the oven at 200c (English money ) until dried out and crispy. The stock can be used to pour over their dinner as a nice "gravy" I will guarantee your cat/dog will go nutz for these. Link to comment

Reefmack Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Great videos. The loopy dog looks like one I almost picked up at a shelter years ago. I still remember his name was Sylvester LOL! Was it raining that day? It looked like rain drops falling on the pond. Link to comment
Sexy Shrimp Posted August 12, 2008 Author Share Posted August 12, 2008 It's raining pretty much permenently here at the mo. Supposed to be the middle of summer but its tyorrential rain! So much for global warming! Link to comment

Sexy Shrimp Posted August 13, 2008 Author Share Posted August 13, 2008 Well I have more frags fr sale (UK - don't get excited lol). I had a bit of a rockslide after dropping my nimble nano down the back grrr. A 1 inch piece of orange monti cap and my new zoas . Have advertised the biggest frags of zoas for sale but the 2 small one as freebies to newbies (been doing a bit of this lately - spreading the wealth ). Pics of the carnage! Before Accidental frag - look at how it has coloured up with MH lighting! Before Accidental frags Had 4 days of dosing now and my levels are pH - 8.4 KH - 10 Ca - 500 Mg - 1400 Maybe I have done a little bit too much. So now to calculate the lowering .25 tsp baked baking soda 70g mgSO4 4ml Ca (reptile) - will use this until it is used up then switch to my other calcium that has now arrived. Link to comment

Reefmack Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Duh on me, but what did you mean by "dropping my nimble nano down the back". What's a nimble nano - did you drop a piece of rock? Link to comment
Sexy Shrimp Posted August 14, 2008 Author Share Posted August 14, 2008 Duh on me, but what did you mean by "dropping my nimble nano down the back". What's a nimble nano - did you drop a piece of rock? OMG Reefmack you have never heard of a Nimble Nano?!?! It's an algae magnet that is about 1cm thick on the inner side and will fit almost anywhere (hence me getting it stuck behind my rock!). Jerome on here sells them - if you search nimble nano and user name Jerome you should find the thread. They are on my best buy list (only things above are my hair straighteners and thermal chaps).

Reefmack Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Well, I thought "nimble nano" might be one of those English terms, but I was wrong. I'll have to search on it - I just might want to get one. The thickness sounds good. Does it do a good job? I guess it doesn't float though? Thermal chaps? For those cold days of horseback riding? Link to comment
Sexy Shrimp Posted August 14, 2008 Author Share Posted August 14, 2008 It does a good job on all but the horrible hard green stuff. It will get coraline off though. It doesn't float but the magnets are so strong that this rarely matters. You can go round corners end on and it doesn't fall off! It also works for bow fronts (which normal ones struggle with). If you get the one slightly stronger I should imagine that it would be pretty difficult to get it loose accidentally. And yes the chaps are for horseriding An essential in winter over here (and sometimes summer ) Link to comment
Reefmack Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Hi - found the post, and then the website: http://nimblenano.com/default.htm I'll probably get the Super Nimble Nano - say that 20 times as fast as you can LOL! It's a tongue twister! Thanks for the information! Link to comment
Sexy Shrimp Posted August 14, 2008 Author Share Posted August 14, 2008 You won't be disappointed! I have debated getting a super for a while now. I think after my landslide I may just do that Link to comment

Sexy Shrimp Posted August 20, 2008 Author Share Posted August 20, 2008 Just glued all my frags down with New Loctite Superglue Gel Super. It is brilliant! Managed to glue my fingers to the rock! Link to comment

Weetabix7 Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Hey, I have a weird totally non-aquatic question for you (hope you don't mind me butting in to ask!)-- What's the price of gas/petrol over there? I ask because in the U.S. we've been seeing gas prices continue to climb quite a bit, but I heard that it's actually a lot worse for people in other countries than it is here. Link to comment
