FlCandy Posted October 31, 2012 Author Share Posted October 31, 2012 Hope that time flies for you. Can you still go to work? I am still working, I am just getting moved to the front and my manager is going to tech for me. She is so awesome it's an amazing thing to have management that actually understands and wants to help you. Thanks for the well wishes. Link to comment

Spirofucci Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Geez, what a long ordeal you've had to go through! Get better soon!!!! Link to comment
FlCandy Posted October 31, 2012 Author Share Posted October 31, 2012 Thanks Mark. Thanks everyone for the well wishes. Okay I have no idea how this happened but my husband was working and a client gave him a 10 gallon Nano with a clown and a purple fire fish and a red mushroom..... Apparently I am going Nano sooner then I thought. Pics of it tonight. That is indeed very commendable ... does not happen in too many places IME ... glad they are doing so for you. Hope you get better soon ... Godspeed with your recovery ! Thanks Albert, the manager is amazing, she is new in the last 2-3 months but the previous one probably would have told me to just not work. I cant afford that but I am so grateful I have a manager who understands what's going on ad what her employees need. Truly a Godsend. Link to comment
FlCandy Posted October 31, 2012 Author Share Posted October 31, 2012 So this is a copy and paste from the local forum..... The tank is in poor shape apparently but I bet I can rescue it! The Hubby was working and was given a 10 gallon Nano with a Clown and a Purple Firefish, and a red shroom (according to husband) YES SOMEONE JUST GAVE IT TO HIM WITH ALL THE STUFF! He said over $500 worth of equipment and its ours! What should I be looking into it, apparently it is covered in Cyano, it was the client's kids tank and they crashed it. Per Andrew it has LED's and plenty of LR and macro that is getting smothered by Cyano. But he was impressed with the system and jumped on it, gotta love him. Guess I better place an order with John from Reefcleaners for a massive pack of Cerths! Anything else I should be ready for? I mean I am thinking of putting the firefish and clown in the fuge for now until I can get the tank clean and cycled again as I am probaby going to rip it apart. DO you think 2 purple firefish, a Yellowtail Damsel and a Baby Orange clown will be okay together? There is plenty of hiding places and it's a 40 gallon tank. Thanks for any help, Nano is new to me, I like something with some size, and if all else fails I will have a frag tank then! Thanks guys, I am thinking of doing BB on that guy and that is going to be my major difference other then size of the tanks. Any help or advise would be awesome, I am used to things well over 40 gallons this is Teeny Tiny for me. OHHHHHH!!!!! I have a bedroom tank! Link to comment

albertthiel Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Any new pics ... here and on FB .... Tank looks so great last time I saw your shots of it ... And how is that favorite fishie of yours :-) Link to comment
FlCandy Posted October 31, 2012 Author Share Posted October 31, 2012 I am getting a JBJ 12 gallon Nano with LEDs! OMG thats sick, it's an AIO so I will be modding this thing. He is telling me details now and it seems to have some mods, like the LEDs are a separate fixture and there is no top etc, so I will have to see it before I know for sure. What mods do I need to do/look for you reefers with AIO tanks? I will get the pics I have saved posted, haven't been able to take any as the back is making things hard but I do have some I will post this weekend when I have the Nano hooked up! Link to comment

Sounds great and on the mods ... probably the media basket and depending on what skimmer comes with it you may need a better one .. also on the LED you may want to check with JediMasterBen after you know what LED's are in it whether they are the right ones after you tell him what you are going to keep in the tank Enjoy ... and thanks for posting the pics when you feel well enough to do so Link to comment
FlCandy Posted November 1, 2012 Author Share Posted November 1, 2012 IKR Gena! Maybe a mushie/softie/macro goby reef!!!!! I am excited! You guys think another Purple firefish and a small orange clown (not sure species will post a pic later was told its TEENY TINY) will be okay with the one purple firefish and yellowtail damsel I already have in the Fuge? There are plenty of hiding places and I can get another piece of Dry BR if needed. Just don't want to give the fish up and don't want them to get killed. Thanks guys! OH and in about 20-30 minutes look for a pic dump I got a few new corals this week in trade for discounted macros. Yes I am profiting off the tank finally! LMAO So awesome! Link to comment

Lobo Mushie Rock Pretty Mushies Green fuzzy mushies See the shake makes the pics suck, Acans Top Rock Zoas Fire and Ice Zoas IDK combo rock I believe them to be Green Hornets So dark you can't see it but I call them the resurrection zoas as they look bad every few months then come back with a vengeance.

Can't wait to see the new tank too!!!!!! Your plan for it sounds GREAT!!!!!! Thanks Soon girlie!

Thanks I am so excited! Damn, I have GOT to get me another ponape birdsnest now that I can keep SPS. That color is with it at mid tank, I want to put a piece up higher and see what happens!

jedimasterben Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 That color is with it at mid tank, I want to put a piece up higher and see what happens! It looks pretty much like all the others I've seen, one LFS around here had one colony (as big as my head) that was about 16" below a 400w Radium, and it looked just the same as yours. I love them just the way they are Link to comment
