reefgrl4U Posted October 3, 2003 Author Share Posted October 3, 2003 it takes a lot to scare me away. I was actually looking to see if I had any clean-ish pics to post in the pic thread. I might have to have one of my roommates take some pics of the three of us. It is, afterall, going to be our tank so we might as well let you meet us all. Link to comment

Dingo Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 Nah. You guys are all being taken by a 400 pound naked guy with a stocking on his head. Really, now. A hot stripper with 2 roommies all interested in posting here? Puhleeze. And all in the same day as a supposed flirtatious hot blonde southern belle starts a new tank too. Besides, he called kennerd gay because he didn't bite the hook, at the same time as he complained that all the guys here were horny little kids. /*big raspberry for reefgrl4U*/ Link to comment

Ike Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 Hey reefgrl, I am by no means an expert, but I'll try to answer your questions as best I can. Your set-up sounds good so far. The only things that I would question are the bowfront and the 12 lbs of rock. The bowfront because the shape of the hood is unusual and could limit your lighting choices, unless you're handy with tools and DIY projects, which you might be, and the 12 lbs of rock because that's a lot of rock for a 7 gallon tank. Remember that when you start to buy corals many colonies will come attached to their own piece of rock. You should keep that in mind when setting up; leave room for the corals that come attached to their own pieces of rock. That tank is going to fill up fast. OK, questions: 1. "I was planning on putting two fish in there. I know that it means more bio load (still not sure what that means either) but I will do water changes every week. I want to get one clown fish or a goby (they are so cute) and I wasn't sure what the second fish should be. so, any suggestions?" Well, clowns really enjoy being in groups. So you could get two and they would be happy. Or how about a shrimp? Skunk cleaners are cools as hell and get along great with practically anything. I've also had great luck with small yellow-tail damsels. Not as aggressive as other damsels and they are beautiful. "2. is there a site anywhere that gives a rough idea for how many clean up crew animals per gallon? those kits are so big and I don't want to buy stuff and kill it." Try here: http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/scateg....d=25&pCatId=420 It's as good as any other site. But, like you said, they are going to try to sell you things you don't need. You don't need stars, urchins, cucumbers, nudibranches, etc. For a tank your size all you'll need are a few snails and a few hermits. I've had great luck with Astrea snails and Zebra hermits. The Astreas are great algae grazers and the Zebras eat algae and detritus, plus they aren't very aggressive and stay small. I would suggest @ 5-7 snails and an equal number of hermits. Sounds like a lot, but you'll be amazed how much there is in the tank for them to eat once things get rolling. "3. how do I know what hitchhikers are good and what ones are bad? when I put the rock in the tank I want to try and get the baddies off before it becomes too difficult." Most hitchhikers are good. The only ones that are bad are ones that can overrun your tank or do harm to it's inhabitants. You really can't tell what you've got until things start growing out and your tank is running. The only way to tell is to just keep an eye on things. If you notice something is wrong and don't know what it is, post a description for us & we'll try to help you out. "4. um, I'm a bit embarrassed here. cleaning question. I read all about doing water changes but how do you actually change the water? is it just taking some out and replacing it with new water or is there some kind of technique that must be followed?" I wrote this up once before for someone. look here: http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/showthread...9&highlight=Ike Water changes are the single most important maintenance routine you'll be doing. It's easy. Do it a few times & you'll be a pro. Slow & steady is definately the best. Like many things in life, don't rush. Take your time, enjoy what you're doing and it will all work out for the best. BTW, I just saw your picture in one of the other forums. The only word that comes to mind is STUNNING... Wait...a beautiful woman, with cool interests and, judging by her posts, a quick wit & sense of humor?!?!?!? Something just isn't right with this equation. Am I on the right website?

tinyreef Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 Wait...a beautiful woman, with cool interests and, judging by her posts, a quick wit & sense of humor?!?!?!?

Phish Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 It was me!!!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhh...... I was trying to be nice, I thought I really ####ed this chick off... but a little later I was like "hey, this person dosent exist, its prolly ESPI!!!" but I was wrong (crak) Link to comment
Dingo Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 My vote was for ESPI, but frankly, I didn't want to get him ####ed at me and throw a picture at me or something. Crak, do you weigh 400 pounds? I got a little mad because, jaded as I am, I was actually taken in for a minute... Link to comment
Crakeur Posted October 4, 2003 Share Posted October 4, 2003 Not 400 pounds. y'all had fun and Tiny, I Will be sure to send her twin sister over one night for some wonderful dreams. Link to comment
