the_gats Posted August 24, 2010 Author Share Posted August 24, 2010 Noticed a small amount of cyano (about a dime) on one of the rocks today. I was able to syphon it all out, but I shall be taking precautionary messures over the next week or so to make sure it doesn't come back. Link to comment

the_gats Posted August 24, 2010 Author Share Posted August 24, 2010 Great additions! I like your choices in livestock. Thanks man. I just can't wait to get the new rics in tomorrow. Link to comment
the_gats Posted August 24, 2010 Author Share Posted August 24, 2010 The rics are here and it looks like I got an additional ric. Also just ordered the Fishneedit 3ft/4bulb T5 w/ 2 blue and 2 14000k white. Link to comment
automatik_33 Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 How do they look? Can't wait to see where you place them! Link to comment
tundrashaul Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Those lights look sleek. Are you getting mounting legs or are you going to hang it? Link to comment
the_gats Posted August 24, 2010 Author Share Posted August 24, 2010 Those lights look sleek. Are you getting mounting legs or are you going to hang it? Probably just mount it for now. I would like to hang it just to hide the overhang a little, but that may come in the future. Link to comment
tundrashaul Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 When is your light supposed to come in? Link to comment
the_gats Posted August 27, 2010 Author Share Posted August 27, 2010 When is your light supposed to come in? It's supposed to be in by Wednesday. I'm hoping it will be earlier, but I guess Wednesday will be fine. I can't wait to get more blue though. I need some more pop. Question for some of you pros. I got the 4 bulb coming w/ 2 blue and 2 14k bulbs. Should I go blue/14k/blue/14k or can I put blue/blue/14k/14k? The reason I ask is because it has two power outlets and I would like to beable to just run blue by themselves. Would that have any effect on how the lights luminate the tank? Link to comment
tundrashaul Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 How inclined are you electrically? You can probably change the end caps if they arent set up every other.....Im an electrician going on 6 years so if you have any questions let me know. Link to comment

I could probably pull it off. New FTS Attached the rics. They are still pissed. Can't wait to see this thing under the new light. Link to comment
the_gats Posted August 31, 2010 Author Share Posted August 31, 2010 I forgot how much I hate waiting for ground shipping. I am ready for this new light to get in. In other news, the xenia is already attached to my back glass. I'm interested in what that is going to look like as it starts to spread. Hopefully it will stay on the back wall since the rock it is attached to is touch anything except the back. Also the rics seem to be spreading out quite nicely. I will have to get a new pic later this week. Link to comment
tundrashaul Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Tank is really fillin out, I cant get over how huge that frogspawn has gotten!!! Link to comment
the_gats Posted August 31, 2010 Author Share Posted August 31, 2010 Tank is really fillin out, I cant get over how huge that frogspawn has gotten!!! Yea the frogspawn is huge. If it keeps growing at this rate I might have to trade it out for a smaller one. I am excited to see the rest of the corals grow out. Link to comment

Im anticipating it as much as you are I think Have fun at the lake, I heard its beautiful, be sure to share some pics! Haha unfortunately I don't think it will be in until Thursday.

the_gats Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 Yea I am not very happy right now. I knew fedex was going to be a problem. Link to comment
the_gats Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 So I called FedEx and apparently my lights have been delivered to my lease office. What I don't understand is why the tracking never changed to delivered and why didn't the guy leave atleast the note saying he was there and left it at the office. So I will have my light at 9am when the office opens. Link to comment
