Reefmaster1996 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Mines nice and doesn't bother anyone in the tank or my hand when it makes its normal visits. But I personally don't like any crab other than the standard clean up crew hermits and snails, and sometimes even the hermits piss me off. Oh and emerald crabs are the devil, I have never gotten any and never will. Ohh and I like pm poms and porcelain crabs etc. Link to comment

My pistol killed them and the emeralds lol.... im really surprised how active my goby and pistol are....I mean 5inch Suntail and 3.5inch tiger pistol lol. They are both huge and ballsy lol. To think my pistol was a hitch hiker....and now its a bastard lol. They both swim in open water together like up in the clowns domain. The complete opposite of how they originally were reclusive to their burrow Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 What kind of pistol? I had a candy striped pistol come in as a hitchhiker. I don't know how. Dry rock, dry sand, all corals dipped in iodine, then peroxide. lol Link to comment

metrokat Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I'm glad you're getting it salty finally. I was getting tired of my drool being the only salty thing when I'm looking at your set up. I absolutely LOVE the idea of the chaeto tumbler. Not sure what else I could tumble in it but I love it. Link to comment

Deckoz2302 Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 So who thinks I should dump 20oz of skimmate into the new tank to start a cycle lol Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 So who thinks I should dump 20oz of skimmate into the new tank to start a cycle lol I got some all over me yesterday when I was cleaning the cup. It was gross. lol Link to comment
patback Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 So who thinks I should dump 20oz of skimmate into the new tank to start a cycle lolNO! Remember its not just fish poop... Soap residue, cooking oil, perfumes, cleaning products, body oil (you did use some ky lube ) are all in there. No point in taking that stuff out of one tank and throwing it in another.

Deckoz2302 Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 So I went ahead and pyt a single vortech on the back of the tank. Reef crest a 100% on 80 gallons....I was quite surprised at the power this single pump has in open water.. holy shit and I had 3 on my 25gallon running at 20% lol Link to comment
metrokat Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 So who thinks I should dump 20oz of skimmate into the new tank to start a cycle lol I do. Only because the idea was seeded in my mind because of you. I might have to put it to use since I might have to re-cycle my sump tomorrow. Link to comment

Kat your awesome for reminding me of that lol 11-13 more gallons until every tank is full.....wooohooo Now lets hope all the drains work at proper speeds lol Link to comment
metrokat Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 You don't understand, I've got shiit in my head that you said that won't go away. Like add selcon with an airstone to acclimating corals when you get them shipped and are pissed off. Link to comment

Like add selcon with an airstone to acclimating corals when you get them shipped and are pissed off. I still do that! Haha...except I pull enough rotifer culture to completely submerge the coral then I add selcon and some red sea reef energy. For somereason highly oxidized water loaded with carbs and amino acids with little bugs crawling all over the corals seems to make them go crazy...I started doing this when I decided everything gets qtd for days Link to comment
Spirofucci Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 If anybody can get away with dumping skimate into yer tank.......you can. Or get Ben to come over befor he takes a shower. Link to comment
