Codeman Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Got full pico crews for free, you just pay $15 for Priority Mail shipping -Express Mail is ridiculous to pay on a pico, you can get one locally - tell me what your LFS carries. Fair for the time for shipping, the label, and the heat pack I think. Trying to get some hours for a few friends. Just post a pic of the pico and/or give me a description, and we will send a snail only reef safe package to you. If you want mangroves and chaeto let me know. You can't add other cleaners to this package - don't want it to be a "first 7 gallons free sale" . BY the way, pico for me is under 7 gallons. Great deal John! Too bad I'm full up. Link to comment
johnmaloney Posted January 23, 2009 Author Share Posted January 23, 2009 clean looking tank.... Link to comment
Abraham1907 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 This pic is almost 3 weeks old now (took it the day I set the tank up). I have since changed the light bulb to a coralife 20w 50/50 pc and am in the process of building a diy hood. I also plan on adding an ATO within the next few weeks so I don't have to worry about top off and changing the salinity too much. Corals include a green hairy mushroom, a few brown/orange zoanthids, blue spot mushrooms, and an orange ric. The only inhabitants are a blue leg hermit and an unknown snail that are on vacation from my dad's tank until I get my own CUC. I plan for this to be mostly colorful zoanthids and a few cool mushrooms in the future. I also want either a pair of porcelain crabs or harlequin shrimp as the show piece of the tank somewhere down the road. Link to comment
blues_drummer Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 From Jan 7th 3 groups of zoas, some mushrooms, a candy cane, some pipe organs, and 2 ricordias 3 sexy shrimp 1 red legged hermit 1 snail could use a better CUC & Cheato, please! Link to comment
johnmaloney Posted January 23, 2009 Author Share Posted January 23, 2009 the porcelain crabs would have to be fed at times, in a tank that small there won't be enough of the right kind of algae for them all the time. I will send some ulva with your pack, maybe you can grow it out a bit in the mean time to feed them, or maybe your dad will grow it for you From Jan 7th 3 groups of zoas, some mushrooms, a candy cane, some pipe organs, and 2 ricordias 3 sexy shrimp 1 red legged hermit 1 snail could use a better CUC & Cheato, please! will do, I am heading off to bed now, but will pm you all tomorrow.

I'm still making up my mind on what to keep, but I've always wanted to keep them so we'll see. I have an extra 10g in the basement that I could turn into and algae-food growing tank.

yellowslayer13 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Can I get in on this for my new 10 gallon AIO. The water volume is like right about 7 gallons? Link to comment
johnmaloney Posted January 23, 2009 Author Share Posted January 23, 2009 Thanks Pismo! 7 gallons and under total tank measurement - unless you want a half a clean up crew. Link to comment

Abraham1907 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I got my CUC today !!!! The box was really cold, but everything seems fine. They were shipped with a heat pack, but it was frozen ! The weather has been nuts in Illinois this month. We've had everything from -30* to 60* and I'm going crazy! I took pics as soon as they came out of the box so you guys can see what you're getting and also so you can tell me what they are What's this? Nass Snails Dwarf Cerith Snails Thanks again for everything! They're floating in my tank warming up right now, and I'll update once they get released. UPDATE: There were 4 nass snails and 11 dwarf ceriths. The nass started burrowing and exploring as soon as they hit the sand, the ceriths are still sleeping after a long day of shipping... we'll see how many feel like waking up. Link to comment
