Woo hoo! But I think you need some larger anemones - Urts or something. I didn't even notice the strawberries in the FTS, lol.

 

 

And btw, batch RAW processing is for noobs - one at a time is where it's at. B)

I agree :) I'm sending a price request to GOM Monday, and then I'll decide between getting stock from them or Foreshores. I need a nice fish in there too...something that swims around, but I'm a little scared to drop so much $$ on a fish from liveaquaria yet.

 

who said anything about batch processing? I changed settings individually, but did a batch save to tiff while I went off to lunch :)

 

Great pics D, but we need more macros, kthx.

 

lol...never satisfied

:lol: no, different card, but it IS the card reader I dropped in the waterfall -_-

 

A won't let me have a bathroom tank anymore. The little pest tank got taken down after the orange ball nem ate the crabs...and even ate the majanos.

 

Thanks Richie :)

That is quite a lot of rock.

 

 

 

Hand it over. I'm waiting...

 

 

 

:lol:

 

looks nice, D

 

and ditto, get the shaws.

 

 

lol...yeah, but I had to cover the bottom and give the tank some relief. There are 3 pieces in there about 20 lbs each underneath the pretty stuff to make the basic structure, and then piled up everything else as stable and natural looking as I could get it.

 

 

OMG - I completely forgot about sending you one of those!! Will week after this work? Speaking of those...I found the baby again, which was lost in the rocks in the 10g for a while. He's now out and looking nice in the 40g - probably four of his size would fit on a dime.

 

The strawberries have attached everywhere. The orange ones have quadrupled in number, the pink and cream ones have colonized about 10 new rocks. I found 20 or so stuck to the glass underneath rocks in the 10g and had to scrape them off and toss them in the new tank. :)

:imagine picture of Mr. Burns here, I'm too lazy to attach one:

 

 

Yeah, next week would be fine. :)

BYE LITTLE NEM!!! HOPE YOU LIKE JAMIE'S FISHEY TANK :)

Happy trails and a safe journey to Jamies!

I hope he likes it too! Should I put him in the surge or the not surge part?

 

he likes high flow, so i'd go with the surge. he'll wander around a lot until he's happy (and then he'll sometimes wander around to make sure he liked that spot best). I've been feeding him mysis and cyclopeeze, and he'll gobble down an entire cube of mysis at a time if you let him.
