Weetabix7 Posted November 22, 2012 Author Share Posted November 22, 2012 No new fishy for me today. Their whole order got held up in Indianapolis somehow and won't get here til Friday, at which time all or most of the fish will be dead, I'm sure. Quote Link to comment

That red bone I sent you, on the bottom in the photo, I purchased because as it grows it branches out like a birdsnest. It was my intention to grow that in place of SPS. It has a pretty nice looking growth pattern. Quote Link to comment

It has a pretty nice looking growth pattern. I'm glad you saw that! I actually really like all of the Macros I've gotten, and they look really good in the tank, both the ones from you and the ones from keydiver. The tank is starting to really shape up and look nice and I'm a little frustrated that I haven't been able to get good pics to convey that. Life's just been busy, I'm working on it. my blue ochtodes did the same thing that yours did. its been in the tank about a week now and its all back to blue That's great to hear! In my case I ended up with a few small clumps after trimming it and they kinda attached themselves to different crevices in the LR or even to other plants, and I've kinda just left them alone and allowed them to do that. Because the clumps are pretty small, they aren't really showing up in pics yet but they're there. I do feel hopeful about what's left. Happy Thanksgiving to all!!! Now I'm off to prep and cook.

Weetabix7 Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 Thx everyone. Ok, pics. These were taken a few days ago, before I picked up and rearranged several Macro pieces that had fallen into the rockwork and before I added a frag of Clove Polyps. It looks much, much nicer than this in real life and the Macros are doing well. Unfortunately, it may be a little while before I can take pics to show that. But here's what I do have.

O.M.G.!!! Wow, you were not kidding when you mentioned the swelling! Scary! Yes, definitely focus on resting and healing. Hopefully they gave you the good pain meds to deal with the pain.

acrab78 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Yikes. Sorry about your hand... I feel your pain literally, I am recovering from a surgery myself and have been for the past three months. Just do what the doc says, go to therapy and ice and anti-inflamitories are crucial. Wish you a fast recovery! Quote Link to comment
Looselyhuman Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Hmm. If you stick them in a pile of mashed potatoes you'd have bangers and mash. Sending good vibes your way. Quote Link to comment
eitallent Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 OUCH! Looks so painful. Hey, the enzyme Bromelian helps get rid of bruising and swelling. It is found in fresh pineapples, so eat up! Wishing you a very speedy recovery! Here is an article about Bromelain. Quote Link to comment
