Arkayology Posted March 18, 2010 Author Share Posted March 18, 2010 Love that Acan pic! Very nice! Everything looks awesome! Have an updated FTS? I will get an updated FTS when I get back from vacation. This is my first time away from the tank like this and I am constantly worrying that it will crash lol. I have a friend that is going to feed them and let me know if things go sour. Keep your fingers crossed for me. Link to comment

Heh, once you get your tank up you will know the fear of coming home from vacation to a dead tank. Link to comment
Arkayology Posted March 25, 2010 Author Share Posted March 25, 2010 You back at school now? I am currently on the plane between Milwaukee and LA. I am looking forward to seeing if there is any growth in the tank and maybe getting some new corals. We shall see. BTW, I am really looking forward to seeing what you get in terms of a new tank. It should be good knowing you. Link to comment

Arkayology Posted March 27, 2010 Author Share Posted March 27, 2010 you got luckier than me, I left for three days and I lost a nem, then some of my sps went RTN its been WC every other day or so... Ya, I did get lucky. But, I will be in Peru for 2 months over the summer and I have to figure out what I am going to do with my tank. I have everything just the way I want it and I really don't want to sell my setup. I am not sure If I can trust anyone to take care of the thing for 2 months. I might take all of my valuable corals out and have a friend watch them for me. I just don't know what I will do about the fish and whatnot. Anyone wanna sublet my apartment for 2 months?

Markushka Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 ha, yeah thats an idea, get someone from NR to sublet from ya. Sept. I'm going back to live on campus so all my fish except the six-line are out. wanna make it so that all that needs to be done is filling the ATO chamber. Link to comment

Haha ya I remember it from a few years ago when I had my dwarf seahorse set up, came home from a trip back to Monterey and they where all dead. Glad to hear everything is doing well though. But sweet doing a foreign exchange program in Peru? But you could always send that Hog Fish and some of those sweet pieces my way Link to comment
violinist Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Peru?? Awesome, I'm jealous. Link to comment

Glad to hear everything is doing well though. But sweet doing a foreign exchange program in Peru? But you could always send that Hog Fish and some of those sweet pieces my way I am actually doing research down in Southern Peru. I am an archaeologist and will be down there doing some excavations and lab analysis. I have already done my study abroad in Tanzania about 2 years ago. I will keep you in mind if I end up getting rid of the setup. Everyone seems to like the candy hog, it is a pretty awesome fish I must say. And V, it may seem glamorous but it is really boring lol. I sit in the dirt all day and look at burnt pieces of plant in the lab and at night I get a pack of Lucky Strikes and a bottle of Johnny Walker and do the same thing the next day. But hey, I guess I am living the dream. Lets just hope I can figure the tank out. If not, I will be piecing this bad boy out and setting up a larger tank when I get back in August. Link to comment
Arkayology Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 Found my Electric Blue Hermit's shell empty this morning and all the other shells and hermits in the tank are accounted for. Too bad, it was my favorite invert in the tank. Off to the LFS to check out if they have anything that I must have, even though I don't need anything lol. Link to comment
Arkayology Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 Currently acclimating a new Electric Blue Leg Hermit and a couple astreas to replace some dead ones. I also picked up a red florida ric. Pic of the ric later when it opens up more. I really shouldn't be buying livestock if there is a chance I will have to break my tank down, have a friend hold some pieces and sell off the rest. But I wanted them so.... Link to comment
violinist Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Lol, spoken like a true addict. Link to comment
Arkayology Posted March 29, 2010 Author Share Posted March 29, 2010 You know I'm an addict V, but arn't we all? I hope this ric splits like crazy. I have always wanted one. If things go well with this one, I may get a blue/green one. I also found out my LFS LOWERED THEIR PRICES ON ACANS!!! I can get a 4-9 head frag of acans for 35 bucks! I am in trouble... Anyways, I digress. Photos! FTS, it's coming along nicely eh? New Ric Best pic of the Goby I have ever gotten growth shot, I didn't get the Pearlberry in there but it really has never been doing well. Its polpys extend but it is not super colorful. Shrug? Money Cowrie out in during the day! Link to comment
