gena Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Just want to give them little hugs Agreed! They are cute-as-a-button!!!!!! Link to comment
Spirofucci Posted December 11, 2011 Author Share Posted December 11, 2011 Well..... I placed an order from Live Aquaria today I think it arrives on Tuesday! Some stuff comes from California and some from Wisconsin. I guess Divers Den is only from Wisconsin. I was a little disapointed in that they were out of stock on most of their easy to care for corals. I ordered two little tank bred clowns (thanks for the advice) and some zoas, palys, shrooms and a monti. I hope its not too much all at once! Also, finished getting together the things for Mr./Ms, secrete santa. I hope he/she will like it! Now I just need to figure out how to pack and ship it. One item is heavy! Link to comment
Spirofucci Posted December 11, 2011 Author Share Posted December 11, 2011 That's exactley how I felt when I finished the order!!!!!! Link to comment
JoelRHale Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 I'm assuming some of the coral were from DD? Teaser pics? I've ordered DD 4 times now, always pleased with the quality. Link to comment

picoreef78 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Nice, I have not ordered online yet. LFS near DC is pretty good and reasonably priced but now that my tank is in Dallas, the LFS are not so good. Good luck I am sure everything will do well. Link to comment

Deckoz2302 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 DUDE! your scape is so bonsai. almost as gnar as your avatar . And the matching stands?!?! I wish I had enough room for a rodi/waterchange cabinet Link to comment
Spirofucci Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 Thanks Deckoz! You have the room, I've seen your pics. BTW, you're not married yet so do what you want now! haha. I would like to get another MP10 just to get some flow in the opposite direction. But I don't think I have the huevos for three! I'm married. Link to comment
Deckoz2302 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 hahahaha yea I could but I don't want the apartment to be cluttered, its only 890sqft lol. And we might as well be married. but real talk, she has her money, I have my money. based on our income until she finishes school I pay 75% she pays 25%. That way she ends up with play money and I have play money. And we've had our joint account almost 4 years now and we both just put 50 in each paycheck and it pays for our vacations we gots a system. lol thank god for no kids....yet Link to comment
Spirofucci Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 Sounds good! Kids are the best thing ever, but wait a little longer, practice makes perfect! Link to comment
Ezsharkman Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 fish today correct! how exciting! Link to comment
Spirofucci Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 Hopefully, I'll be getting a call @ work soon. I think I'll be able to run home, acclimate and run back! Here's what I ordered: 2 Ocellaris clowns Dragon eye zoas Fire & ice zoas Evergreen starburst polyp (GSP)? Purple death palys Purple montipora Mushroom rock, blue vietnam. Hopefully no DOA's!!! Link to comment
Spirofucci Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 I'm jazzed!!!! Got fish and corals in my tank!!!!! The whole acclimation process took an hour and a half. I followed the instrutions from Live Aquaria, but did not use the drip method. I was totally unprepared for so much water in the bags and had to make 5 gal of SW quick to replace the disgarded water! The two little clowns are the cutest things ever and seem OK so far. One of the rics came broke (Genas trick) so I gently wedged it in a piece in the rock. I think the palys have a couple of pieces hanging off the rock but are still attached to the rest of the colony. Everything is shriveled up and looks terrible but I guess that's what happens. The light are off but I don't know when I can turn them back on????? I'll try and post pics tonight. Link to comment
Ezsharkman Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I am so happy for you spiro! cant wait to see the pics and to hear more about your fish and corals! Link to comment
Spirofucci Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 Thanks EZ! BTW I'm an idiot, I don't have any rics, LOL, it's the GSP, I think, that broke. Link to comment

Very nice!!! Specially the purple monti. Stick to your routine lighting schedule even with the new coral/fish ... If you have one? Link to comment
gena Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Don't they have the cutest little clowns? They really are more adorable then any I've seen at the LFS's. Can't wait to see everything!!!!!! Link to comment
Spirofucci Posted December 14, 2011 Author Share Posted December 14, 2011 Tank check @ 0600 it looks like everyone's happy. Those little clowns are amazing. No fear, they swim everywhere and after two minutes in the tank they were eating pods off the glass! GSP started to open yesterday, but completely closed this morning. Work is still crazy, I'll try and post pics tonight. Again, thanks for all your help and input, you guys are amazing. Link to comment
