Kazooie Posted November 26, 2011 Author Share Posted November 26, 2011 I'll be using a old finnex clip-light I have. It has a 50/50 screw in bulb, which should grow it just fine. Maybe not the good looking kind, but the green should grow fast. Link to comment
devilsadvocate Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 nice sump, did you have to use weld-on for the corner piece? or is it siliconed to the first baffle? Link to comment
Kazooie Posted November 28, 2011 Author Share Posted November 28, 2011 nice sump, did you have to use weld-on for the corner piece? or is it siliconed to the first baffle? Thanks! Yep, used Weld-On 16. All the other baffles are siliconed. Plumbing is almost done, ran out of PVC glue for the spray bar, so it'll be done sometime this week. Link to comment
Kazooie Posted December 2, 2011 Author Share Posted December 2, 2011 It is wet... Freshwater test was a success, now waiting only on the package in the mail to arrive, then cycling shall begin. Loving the lights with water under then by the way. Only surface agitation is from the overflow, so I don't get color separated shimmer, which looks so distracting. Link to comment
Kazooie Posted December 3, 2011 Author Share Posted December 3, 2011 Plumbing was a bit loud, and since the tank is about 5 feet from my bed, I made a quick silencer for it. And the package should be here sometime within a week. Link to comment
Squared Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 And the package should be here sometime within a week. tell me about your package is that sw? Link to comment
Kazooie Posted December 5, 2011 Author Share Posted December 5, 2011 It's full of stuff and is somewhere between Seattle and here. That is all that I will say. Nope, that's freshwater. Going to mix the salt in sometime next week. Link to comment
Kazooie Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 Getting closer...! Link to comment
Kazooie Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share Posted December 16, 2011 THERE WILL BE SALT BY THIS WEEKEND. Link to comment
FlCandy Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 YAY! Salty Water! I love the scape man. Link to comment
Kazooie Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share Posted December 16, 2011 I know, I'm ahead/behind the initial guessesage on when it would be salty! Thanks! This was the first time I've ever done a scape with the tank empty. I prefer it a lot more! Link to comment
Euphyllia Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Tank looks amazing! Link to comment
FlCandy Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I regretted not doing it without the water in there. Made it all cloudy. Link to comment
Kazooie Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share Posted December 16, 2011 Tank looks amazing! Thanks! I just wish it'd clear up a little. I regretted not doing it without the water in there. Made it all cloudy. Yeah, I know what you mean. It usually cleared up overnight though. Link to comment
Orange Crush Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Kazooie, stop making stupid reports or I'll ban you. Seriously. There was no reason to report either or the things you spammed my email with. It's a public forum. You don't get to choose who posts in your thread. There's an ignore function. Feel free to use it. Link to comment
Kazooie Posted December 19, 2011 Author Share Posted December 19, 2011 Ok, if you can't help me, then I'll do it myself. Colormyheart, please stop posting in my threads. I have you on ignore now, so I wont be able to see anything you post. Also please stop pming me, thanks. I know we were friends at one point, but I have abandoned all friends from that point, so that I can remain here. During that time I had about 2 bans, in about 3 weeks. Without changing how I act, I would not be here. So do not take it personal, there is a whole host of people I wont talk to anymore. And OC, I apologize if the reports bothered you, that was far from my intention. I was just calling attention to a post I did not find appropriate, an asking to delete a post here. I hope that this wont happen again. ------------------------------------------------------------ I have a refractometer to be delivered soon, and then the tank will start cycling. There was a brief pause when the old hydrometer that I've been using for almost 2 years broke, as well as when the mj1200 for the skimmer fell down and all but emptied the sump on the floor. But those are all but fixed. Link to comment
Kazooie Posted December 19, 2011 Author Share Posted December 19, 2011 Oh, and while I'm at it. Waters still cloudy, but looks like it should be clear by next weekend. Link to comment

Kazooie Posted December 25, 2011 Author Share Posted December 25, 2011 We have diatoms! And the water has cleared up amazingly! Link to comment
Kazooie Posted December 25, 2011 Author Share Posted December 25, 2011 Two little frags of zoas I put in there. 2 polyps of Captain Americas and 3ish of a random one I found in another tank. They used to be greyed out and gross, but are turning pinkish here. Link to comment
devilsadvocate Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 cool. you ought to deal with that cyano before it becomes a problem. Link to comment
Kazooie Posted December 25, 2011 Author Share Posted December 25, 2011 Yeah, I know. I'm going to blow it off with a baster later today. It's just on because they were in the other tank, which is full of it right now. Link to comment
