Last season was crazy nd there is going to be a season 8. Woot Woot Thanks for checking out my tank, its always improving little by little. Im a Dexter fan! My wife got me the bobblehead for Valentine's day last year and we just finished watching season 7 around Christmas and then saved the finale for New Years Eve, it worked out so great. Did you hear that the next season is starting sooner. I think they said June for the first episode. Quote Link to comment

I did hear Dexter will be more crazy in season 8 lol how much crazier can he get? Alot of things were left open at the end of the finale. I will be following your thread for more Dexter talk and awesome tank pictures and videos. Quote Link to comment

I'd like to chat more about the seasons but sometimes that pisses people off if they are catching up on past seasons and read DEXTER SPOILERS. Snape kills Dumbledore.... opps sorry kids Quote Link to comment

C4PZL0K Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Nice looking tank. Do you get a lot of evaporation? Enjoyed skimming through the build pictures, impressive. Quote Link to comment
Scorched Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 Nice looking tank. Do you get a lot of evaporation? Enjoyed skimming through the build pictures, impressive. Thanks for checking it out. My evaporation is fairly consistent but it does vary based on the season and the amount of humidity in the office on any given day. But overall it isn't that much. I have a 4 gallon jug of RODI sitting next to the tank that I only use for top off and it can take 2-3 weeks to use the whole thing up. So it isn't too bad. Quote Link to comment
Scorched Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 Picked up some small polyps of Dendros. I'll try to get some new pictures of those up this week. My order for a Helfrichi firefish is still waiting.... the local fish stores are kind of irritating me about this. I've been asking the same 3-4 stores to order this fish in since Christmas and none of them have pulled through. If it gets to the end of the week and none of them have ordered my fish I will probably just pay the extra shipping and get one through LiveAquaria since they are on sale this week.

Scorched Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 FINALLY got in the fish I've always wanted. Big thank to Murray's Aquatech for keeping in touch with me these last few weeks and calling me when one was available. The Dendros are also from Murray's and really add a nice flash of orange that I was missing on this side of the tank. 1 Quote Link to comment
Kfmmartin19 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Sick fish. Can we get a close up pic of each island? Also, how many fish do u have now? Quote Link to comment
Scorched Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 Sick fish. Can we get a close up pic of each island? Also, how many fish do u have now? I have 3 fish total. Ocellaris Clown, Midas Blenny, and Helfrichi Firefish. This is my last fish. I'll have to take my camera back to work tomorrow for more specific pictures are I only really took quick pics of the fish before I left to go home for the night. Quote Link to comment

Really dig the dendro's, rbta, hammers and sps. Thanks IIX! Its really filling out nicely. There are just a few more corals that I had my heart set on, mostly blues and purples, and it should be almost complete. A blue Maxima, Hawkins, Oregon Tort, Orange and Purple plating montis and some blue or purple acans will make this tank complete. Quote Link to comment

1reefluvr2 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 That tank is sick! That fish is my favorite fish also. I used to have a pair but they whent woodfloor surfin. .. One couldnt live without the other. I did the best thing a owner could do and barried them in front yard along with previous pets:( Quote Link to comment
Scorched Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 ....And the fish has already disappeared. Hoping for the best and she is just hiding in a rock somewhere. 2 Quote Link to comment
Deckoz2302 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Did ypu ever figure out your drains? Small holes in the elbows at the bulkheads with rigid airline tubing will allow air to enter easier to that the water sprials the wall of the drain pipe. Also where the pipes exit into the sump there needs to be some sort of air gap for the air to escape otherwise it will back up slowing the flow because the water has to creatw enough pressure to push out the trapped air Quote Link to comment
Scorched Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 %^#*@&$ !!!! I just found 3 hermits eating him. Im not happy. I enjoyed the fish for all of about 1 hour last night. Quote Link to comment
