ScubaEthan Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 he might not be able to come out, looks like he is jammed in pretty tight. he may have molted in there and gotten bigger. they are silly, mine is called dingbat. That really happens?! That's dumb. hehe good name. I actually just saw it's claw sticking out from another rock so it moved. It's SUPER shy. Even more so than my hitch hiker crab which took me months to get a photo of. I got a used JBJ ATO. Now what? Ha. My question is how to attach the switch to the tank. I don't want it in the display obviously but the water in the back chambers are different levels. Is that ok? I tried super gluing smooth plastic to smooth plastic and it didn't work. My finger, however, is another story. Link to comment

My finger, however, is another story. Did it come with the plastic hangers? If not, you could use suction cups although they aren't as reliable. I used suction cups before. You know...I might have hangers leftover from the one I had. If I have it, I'll send it to you....but don't get your hopes up, cuz I probably don't have them anymore But I will check on that in a little bit. My middle chamber is where I would place an ato. It's a good indicator of water level. Link to comment
FlCandy Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 I need an ATO.... Stand and SUMP then add ATO as I bet I will have WAY more EVap. Looks great BTW I really like the scape! Link to comment
ScubaEthan Posted February 4, 2012 Author Share Posted February 4, 2012 I have some suction cups I'll try. But if it falls off.... is it going to keep running and overflow? I want to set it up this weekend since I'll be here most of the time to watch it and tweak it. Thanks Candy! About to do a photo dump now that the water is clearer. Link to comment

Mine never did when it came unattached. I looked for those hangers and couldn't find them, sorry! I must have tossed them thinking I'd never need them again. I bet you could contact the company for new ones. You could use the suction cups in the meantime. Link to comment
ScubaEthan Posted February 4, 2012 Author Share Posted February 4, 2012 Monti mountain Put this on Facebook and a friend said "looks like you dropped some olives in your anemone" haha So hard to get a photo of them. One of the biggest stars sticking it's arms out on the sand. Found it! It switched homes. This is my Midget Leper Shroom. Now that it has a fancy name, anyone want to buy it for $50?

FlCandy Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 I like the midget Leopard Shroom, It's "Illegal Leopard!" Really looks nice, I like the Monti Mountain on the one side. Link to comment

Is "Illegal Leopard" really the name of that kind of shroom? It came on those cloves. Thanks Link to comment
metrokat Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 i'll take the shroom, have some skimmate to trade. feed the crab some mysis, he will come out Link to comment
ScubaEthan Posted February 4, 2012 Author Share Posted February 4, 2012 i'll take the shroom, have some skimmate to trade.feed the crab some mysis, he will come out Only if it is prime skimmate that has been aged. Tried that. It didn't come out. My crab is broken Which one? This one says it comes with calibration fluids and the others don't mention it. Maybe it's just an extra? I'd rather get the cheaper one unless y'all think it's a piece of ####. The $50 one The $30 one Link to comment
gena Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Love the new pictures!!!!! Monti mountain is awesome I say get the cheaper refractometer. You are basically just paying for the fancy case with the premium aquatics one. The cheaper one may be the company I bought mine from, as a matter of fact Link to comment

I cant say ive seen him in atleast a month. I hear him at night sometimes, so i kno hes in there somewhere. Like the monti mountain!

That is music to my ears My thanks for making my sig. Appreciate it dude. Glad ur crabs good! Now if i could just find mine. I cant say ive seen him in atleast a month. I hear him at night sometimes, so i kno hes in there somewhere. Like the monti mountain! Thats gonna look super sweet in a few months when everything fills out! No problem! Enjoyed doing it. I'm a graphic designer by day so sometimes I miss getting to do fun little projects instead of what I'm told to do. I've had the crab for a couple of months and seen it only a few times so don't worry. It's amazing how much they can hide in such a small space. I can't wait to for my corals to grow. I'm so impatient. Link to comment

Felicia Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 I say go with the cheaper refractometer. Gena is right and you're just paying extra for the case and stuff. I only paid about $30 for mine and it works great! Link to comment

msscha Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Great new rock scape! I like the two peaks with a valley in the middle -- makes for cool visual movement. I have to figure out the fancy names for my zoas . Link to comment
buddythelion Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 You sure those are bam bams? They look paly sized in this photo... Closer pics please? They look like they could be something really sweet... That looks more yellow than orange to me! My yellow is my fav ric in my tank. That's one nice ric... Link to comment
NickCage Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 What kinda flow does your Ric get? And is it in shade or direct light? Just asking because im having problems getting mine to open fully. Its either splitting, which i think it may be, or he is mad at where I moved him to. Link to comment
ScubaEthan Posted February 7, 2012 Author Share Posted February 7, 2012 Great new rock scape! I like the two peaks with a valley in the middle -- makes for cool visual movement. I have to figure out the fancy names for my zoas . Thanks I'm still not sold on it but meh. I could care less about fancy names... besides the fact that they amuse me. And I want to remember what they were sold to me as so I can sell them under that name in the future. You sure those are bam bams? They look paly sized in this photo... Closer pics please? They look like they could be something really sweet... That looks more yellow than orange to me! My yellow is my fav ric in my tank. That's one nice ric... They are pretty sweet. They are definitely small zoas. I'll try to get a better photo tonight. I paid $15 for those three heads and finally have a baby fourth Well it was more orange when I got it. It has turned more golden yellow. I don't know why... it could also just be my sucky camera. Thanks... I just wish my other ric would open that much. Here's a photo of that ric the first day I got it. Huge difference, huh? What kinda flow does your Ric get? And is it in shade or direct light? Just asking because im having problems getting mine to open fully. Its either splitting, which i think it may be, or he is mad at where I moved him to. Considering I currently just have the stock pump, pretty low. I have a maxi-jet 900 and Koralia Nano 240 in the mail Both of mine are in the shade now but they've only been there for a couple days. They open more there but I don't know if that's good or bad. My other one is less than half the size and looks mad too so who knows. Link to comment

ScubaEthan Posted February 8, 2012 Author Share Posted February 8, 2012 Thanks! Look what I got in the mail. So... it's DIY Night. I need to build media racks and stuff out of egg crate. This should help. The cheapest wine you'll ever buy. A couple photos in case I ruin everything. Link to comment
FlCandy Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Is "Illegal Leopard" really the name of that kind of shroom? It came on those cloves. Thanks Not that I know of but hey name it that and you have your own special shroom you can sell for $$$. Link to comment
