gena Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 OMG, i love that show, always on the edge of my seat. I know what you mean about messing with u It's filmed in Danielle's city, i wonder if she's a breaking bad fan. Love that sweet lil Sqaummi, i must have 1! I swear you and Gena have the best clams I think you guys are on x-mas 2014 now My husband has seen them all. He would watch them during his lunch hour at work. He kept telling me how great the show is so I decided I had to see it. We started last week..we watch one a night. I'm so excited to have a new series to watch and I don't have to wait for new episodes. I think there are like 80 or so episodes for me to catch up on. Anyways, the first two shows...WOW! Talk about being on the edge of your seat. I'm hooked. You definitely must get a blue squammie. Uh oh...new page. Sorry Randi!!!! You'll have to post more photos of Flynn. Link to comment

DRLOVEtoreef Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Aah how I have dreamed about that Squamosa for the past two weeks ... I came so close to pulling the trigger on him early last week. .. Even had it in my basket I am thrilled to see it has gone to such an amazing home ... How was the shipping? Was it still on the tile when it arrived? Thanks for sharing Link to comment

FlCandy Posted August 26, 2013 Author Share Posted August 26, 2013 +1 Thanks! Omg the new skimmer came its awesome! It's a fricking beast also have a refractometer and a fragging kit with all the bells and whistles. Damn man this is an awesome skimmer if you need a new skimmer reef octo is the way to go. I have the diablo 170 and it is a beast! Link to comment
FlowerMama Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Sounds exciting. Skimmate to the Nth degree!!! whoo hooo. Your whole tank is a beautiful beast. So, does that reduce algae that's already present or does it just prevent new from growing? Or is the reduction with dosing, was it magnesium I heard? I dunno. Link to comment
FlCandy Posted August 27, 2013 Author Share Posted August 27, 2013 Both and pulls more fish poop out of the tank as well. Can go the Mag dosing route but that's a chemical intervention and I like to try the least invasive possible way first. Link to comment
FlowerMama Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I'm just proud of myself that I remembered reading something about which I know nothing about!! Yeah, I'm w/ you - do the least possible, don't do it if you don't have to, find out what's causing, go preventive, etc. I hear people with tiny tanks like mine wanting to dose and I'm befuddled why they want to go that route. Oh, hey, lots of news about Diablos today- yours, and then my cousin just ordered the 150 and my sister just ordered a 200 coming this week. Diablos everywhere! Do skimmers pull out what is being dosed? or minimally? Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Skimmers pull out mostly organics, but aren't selective. Calcium, sodium chloride, magnesium, will pull it all out, just much more slowly than organics. Link to comment

Do skimmers pull out what is being dosed? or minimally? They do pull some salt and trace out why I do dose and check SG even though I am not doing WC lately. This is nearly 3 almost 4 weeks without one and things are looking better then ever. I got a 170 its a BAMF Skimmers pull out mostly organics, but aren't selective. Calcium, sodium chloride, magnesium, will pull it all out, just much more slowly than organics. Exactly why I dose and test. Macro helps but this takes out all the really nasties. Link to comment
Chew_Magna Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 What kind of skimmer did you have before? Link to comment
FlCandy Posted August 27, 2013 Author Share Posted August 27, 2013 Okay so I won't be getting a Macro this week as the idiot shipper refuses to waive the sig for me even though I will not be home to sign any time this week I have a JOB, even though I emailed him explicitly stating I would not hold him liable unless the product was completely incorrect. People are just .... I hate them. What kind of skimmer did you have before? Odyessa rated to 100 gallons from Aquatraders...... worked for 2 years very Adequate but it would fail or overflow all the time. Link to comment
Giga Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I really like your tank has a nice feel to it Link to comment
gena Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 So I take it the macro lens was coming from a private seller? Can they ship it to your work address? Reposting photos is perfectly fine. Link to comment

Can they ship it to your work address? Reposting photos is perfectly fine. No that one is cancelled, I found one for $100 less on ebay with USPS shipping willing to waive the sig. Shoot I save money and have it by Friday at the latest. I hope so I don't have any more right now, clammy looked even better today no gaping fully open happy little squammi! Link to comment
FlCandy Posted August 27, 2013 Author Share Posted August 27, 2013 Skimmer is already pulling some nasty shiznit out awesome. Link to comment

FlowerMama Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Wow, your pics will look that much more incredible. Does that mean we have magnified drool since you'll be doing closeups? Link to comment
FlowerMama Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Just found out when my sister's skimmer broke among some fish she also lost her 3-4" maxima that her husband bought her for her b-day for $46 a month ago. That sucks. Link to comment
