yoshii Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Everything That's just crazy, a 150 gallon? I'll try to think of more questions I'll try to message him later today or something Yep, has a white spot nem shrimp in there too (another shrimp I was tempted to take home!) Oh and a couple of sexies, you'd think they'd get lost/eaten in such a large tank, but nope! They all hang on on rics and stuff in the front of the tank(this is including the emperor & white spot) Link to comment
animalmaster6 Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 That's what I figured, has to be or else they'd be lost forever Link to comment

zemuss Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 xgame how are you acclimating your coral? Temp and Drip or just Temp Acclimating? Thanks, Link to comment
xgame2k Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 Temp for 30-60min in the frag/qt tank while I get my drip line, small heater, pump and container ready to drip acclimate. Drip for a hour or 2. Dip in tmpcc (sps), revive (all), coral rx (all), lugols (everything, but sps because I already used tmpcc) and ro/di/lugols dip (zoa and palys). Blow off and shake them all. Rinse in a cup of tank water. Place them on the bottom rack of my qt/frag tank. Move them up every week and a half (if needed). Inspect and dip if I see anything in the next few weeks (3 minimum). Dip one last time and place in the bottom corner of my biocube. Move them to their final spot within 3 weeks. (Haven't gotten to the last 2 steps yet.) Link to comment
xgame2k Posted January 5, 2011 Author Share Posted January 5, 2011 Pics of the goby!! how about this: my water changes are today so i have an excuse for the gunk on the bottom. ha ...also, this guy loves my spirulina brine shrimp the most... Link to comment
zemuss Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 X whats your phosphates at? I have been having issues keeping any SPS for more than a 2 months period. "Z" Link to comment
xgame2k Posted January 5, 2011 Author Share Posted January 5, 2011 undetectable. -4 gal water changes every week while sucking up all the visible waste (bare bottom helps) -blow off the rock a couple times a week -soak food in a bit of tank water for 5-10min and strain out with a paper towel -change filter floss 1-2x a week i will start doing a mid week water change to suck out waste, when i get more fish.
