Banjo Posted July 12, 2011 Author Share Posted July 12, 2011 Pfffft, they're for peasants Stole the words out of my mouth, lol. I got hooked on acros man. I have probably another 5 since my last FTS. I'll have to take one soon. This tank is orgasmic. You have my respect. Thank you color! The colors of banjos tank is like the glo lit that attracts and zaps flies Bahahahaha now if only I had one of those glow light zappers to kill all the mosquitos outside my house. It's so ridiculous here. I don't wanna step outside unless in full body armor! Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Dude, it's probably even more humid here on the east coast than it is where you are, fort lauderdale was 97* today but felt like 107* no bulls**t Link to comment
Banjo Posted July 12, 2011 Author Share Posted July 12, 2011 At least Fort Lauderdale is nice. Fort Myers sucks. Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 nice and quiet though, and nice golf played over there i bet! Link to comment
Banjo Posted July 12, 2011 Author Share Posted July 12, 2011 Haha it's nice, quiet, and incredibly boring. I lived in Orlando through college and I liked it there so much more. Now back down here for my master's degree. Too bad I don't golf, rofl. Link to comment
splinter492 Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 amazing tank!!! what type of salt do you use and how often / what size of water changes do you do? Link to comment
Banjo Posted July 13, 2011 Author Share Posted July 13, 2011 Hey! Thanks! I use Reef Crystals. I do strict 5g WCs weekly, have never missed a week since the tank cycled. Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Pffft, another perk of the east coast, fresh NSW brought in by tanker only the most natural for my fishies! Link to comment
Banjo Posted July 13, 2011 Author Share Posted July 13, 2011 Seriously, lol. The beaches here are gross. I wouldn't use the water if someone paid me. Screw the Gulf. Link to comment
splinter492 Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 yay for the oil spill huh... i wonder if the corals and fish and inverts were effected at all? Link to comment
Banjo Posted July 14, 2011 Author Share Posted July 14, 2011 yay for the oil spill huh... i wonder if the corals and fish and inverts were effected at all? I am not sure off hand, but even before the spill... I have never liked the beaches in this city. The water is dirty. I'm too used to the beaches in Dominican Republic with crystal blue water.

splinter492 Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 yeah i know what you mean any heavily populated beach gets lots of pollution in the water through the people littering and using water crafts as well as drains to the ocean... Link to comment
Thrassian Atoll Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Tank is looking great!! Link to comment
Banjo Posted July 14, 2011 Author Share Posted July 14, 2011 yeah i know what you mean any heavily populated beach gets lots of pollution in the water through the people littering and using water crafts as well as drains to the ocean... Yep. And all the tourists ruin what's not in the water The only nice beach around here is Sanibel, which is much more 'exclusive' and isn't affected by the huge crowds of people. The beaches are nice, though the water is still gross. Tank is looking great!! Thanks Tilton! Link to comment
Banjo Posted July 14, 2011 Author Share Posted July 14, 2011 BANJO! !! Did you ever find out what that green thing was? Lol Link to comment
Banjo Posted July 19, 2011 Author Share Posted July 19, 2011 Well, I started Vodka dosing. All the hype got to me. Let's see how this goes! Link to comment
DK_Reef Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 this is a nice tank. any angelfish yet? Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 So.... Just any cheap vodka? What's that do??? Link to comment
Banjo Posted July 19, 2011 Author Share Posted July 19, 2011 this is a nice tank. any angelfish yet? None yet! I've still been on the fence/looking around! Maybe soon... I almost impulse bought a 6 line, but I held back. Might research them a bit as well and throw it into the mix. So.... Just any cheap vodka? What's that do??? Yeah. Mine is like ABC brand trash that costs $7. Just make sure it's unflavored. Read this: http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2008-08/nftt/index.php It's really interesting. I did tons of research prior to carbon dosing... finally gave in. Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Blah blah blah, ur gonna blow up ur tank.... I set up chaeto and my Trates went from 20-25 down to 5. Phosphates always 0. Thx PHOSban. Link to comment
Banjo Posted July 19, 2011 Author Share Posted July 19, 2011 Yeah, probably, lol. I tried chaeto once and hated it. I'd see random pieces in the display. Plus I'm pretty skeptical what a tiny ball of chaeto is going to do to the overall tank, lol. But I suppose it's working for you!!!!!! Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Well did u use the stupid sponge silly? Link to comment
Banjo Posted July 19, 2011 Author Share Posted July 19, 2011 Ew, gross. No! Took that thing out immediately, lol. Link to comment
BOMBreef Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Why'd you start dosing vodka? Your tank looks clean to me! Reaching ULNS is not good for LPS and birdnest....I found that out first hand in my 75g tank. Link to comment
