Paigee Posted May 22, 2012 Author Share Posted May 22, 2012 Thanks I also got a phosphate test, and looks like it registered at 0! I'll test again, but I'm pretty sure it's 0. It's an elos test kit. Link to comment

gena Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Just need a TDS meter now! What would be my next best test kit? Dkh? I would say the KH test kit. It's the one I actually used the most frequently!!!!! Link to comment
Paigee Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 Thanks all And Gena - I'll look into that one! First I should probably research what all these numbers are gonna mean... Link to comment
Paigee Posted May 25, 2012 Author Share Posted May 25, 2012 Every day I open up my email hoping for one saying there is a healthy pink streaked wrasse waiting for me... Still nothing It's been 3 weeks. Link to comment
Deleted User 4 Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 you're getting a wrasse? Link to comment
M&C Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Every day I open up my email hoping for one saying there is a healthy pink streaked wrasse waiting for me... Still nothing It's been 3 weeks. Sorry to hear that! I don't think it's really that common of a fish though so I'm not surprised. Have you considered just ordering it online? I know shipping sucks but you could always throw in a few frags to make it worth the money. How are your corals adjusting to the new tank? You also mentioned your birdsnest was looking a little pale--is it looking better? If it has good polyp extension it's probably fine. Link to comment
Felicia Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Just be patient and hopefully you'll get one soon! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! I'm currently waiting patiently on a midas blenny to replace my starry that jumped and no one around here seems to be getting them in lately. Link to comment

I know what it is....they are waiting for us both to be ready for a pink streaked wrasse. Sorry for slowing you down Link to comment
Paigee Posted May 28, 2012 Author Share Posted May 28, 2012 you're getting a wrasse? Yup a pink streaked wrasse supposed to be a smaller nicer version of a six line. Sorry to hear that! I don't think it's really that common of a fish though so I'm not surprised. Have you considered just ordering it online? I know shipping sucks but you could always throw in a few frags to make it worth the money. How are your corals adjusting to the new tank? You also mentioned your birdsnest was looking a little pale--is it looking better? If it has good polyp extension it's probably fine. I would order online if I could find anywhere to order from. Not that I've looked thoroughly but I haven't seen them offered on any sites in Canada. I'll just wait, if they got one I'm sure they will get another sometime. I'm just impatient! And the birdsnest is still looking pale, but still has polyp extension so I'm not super concerned. I ended up leaving it in my 10 because the last time I did a water change I left the heater unplugged but nothing looks negatively effected, so all is well. Just be patient and hopefully you'll get one soon! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! I'm currently waiting patiently on a midas blenny to replace my starry that jumped and no one around here seems to be getting them in lately. Thanks I'm resisting every urge to email them about it. I know he'll contact me when he has them I know what it is....they are waiting for us both to be ready for a pink streaked wrasse. Sorry for slowing you down Way to go Gena!! Hahaha good things come to those who wait, right? --------------- On a positive note, the diatoms have significantly receded. Cant tell if the snails have been working hard or if they are just receding on their own. The astrea snails are funny, they are always catching a free ride on each other! Link to comment

Cant tell if the snails have been working hard or if they are just receding on their own. The astrea snails are funny, they are always catching a free ride on each other! That's exactly right Great news on the diatoms. I think the diatoms will burn out once the silicates are used up in the tank. Plus I'm sure your snails helped out a lot! Link to comment
Deleted User 4 Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Awww, I wish they had those in my lfs....I'd get one right away because I'm looking for a six-line in case my tank ever comes with flat worms. Link to comment
Paigee Posted May 28, 2012 Author Share Posted May 28, 2012 If I don't hear back within a couple more weeks, then I'll start looking harder online to ship one in. Fingers crossed! Link to comment
