ArabTanker Posted August 24, 2015 Author Share Posted August 24, 2015 Thanks for the support guys. I just really don't understand how this keeps coming back while the tank is being treated. It just doesn't add up to me. Am I missing something? There is no carbon running. I only add prime and food. And I monitor ammonia daily. Link to comment
ArabTanker Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share Posted December 7, 2015 Welp. All the fish died in August. I think the list is a black and white clown, regular clown, phantom clown, kole tang, another tang I cant remember the name of, and 3 blue green chromis. Haven't added anything to the tank since for a few reasons. Deciding to take a break from fish and being too broke to buy anything is among it. 50g has been on auto pilot for months now. About 5 months and only one water change. I'm seeing the best growth I've ever had. So I am very very very thankful for that. Even my SPS is thriving - I've always had trouble with them. I'm a pretty firm believer in the auto pilot method. Just let everything be and the tank will regulate it's self. I moved the little 12" cube to the stand I made for it a few pages back. It's actually shaping up to be a really good looking tank. I'm only adding things from the 50g. So theres only a RFA (bought for the tank a while back), some pallys, and a snipping of a Kenyan Tree. I plan on buying 4 or 5 blue green chromis for the 50g some time this week. Theres no way whatever was killing my fish is still in my system after 5 months. Well. I pray to God I'm right.

ArabTanker Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share Posted December 9, 2015 Post pictures. How is the leptastrea? Cant. Photobucket started pushing ads via their mobile app. So I deleted it and refuse to use it. I'll re install once they cut the bullshit. It's well. I think. IDK. I havent moved it since I bought it. Haha. Link to comment

We had a fish nerd lunch the other day, didn't know if you were alive. I am alive! The tank is alive! Kitties have been banished to my dad's warehouse, unfortunately. Hope you guys had fun. The video was nice. It looks like the tank is doing well. Thank you. It's been on autopilot for a while now. I just top off and sometimes add kalk to the top off bucket. I love that toadstool!!!!! You should let me buy the baby from you . What Gena wants, Gena gets. Link to comment
gena Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 What Gena wants, Gena gets.That's just too easy LOL. But I will seriously buy it from you if you want to ship it out. I like that toadstool better than the one I picked up . Link to comment
ReefWeeds Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 That toadstool is AWESOME! It looks like a weeping willow Glad you're back Link to comment

I like that toadstool better than the one I picked up . I'm sorry Gena. That toadstool actually has sentimental value to it. It's my mom's favorite coral. And I'm a mommy's boy. So, I cant let it go. I know who I bought it from though. I can see if he has another like it. I know he had some in other tanks. Link to comment

ArabTanker Posted May 12, 2016 Author Share Posted May 12, 2016 I can finally keep SPS alive. And not only alive. But they're growing really fast. Link to comment

ArabTanker Posted May 12, 2016 Author Share Posted May 12, 2016 How'd that happen? It was a really hard, seriously. A lot of dedication to keeping water parameters up to par and keeping up with water changes. Link to comment
ReefWeeds Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 It was a really hard, seriously. A lot of dedication to keeping water parameters up to par and keeping up with water changes. I'm sure and that's awesome! something to be proud of, Sherif. But you do know you need to post photos, right? Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 How'd that happen? he shows the tank his butt every night. It keeps them scared into growing. Link to comment

No I'm just messing with you. I just let the tank ferment in it's own filth. I've done one water change (yesterday) in the past 6 months. Apparently that's what works for me. The tank has a shit load of algae too. And it's not just SPS. Since I've started neglecting it everything has taken off. I love it. I think the key is to just let everything be. Don't touch anything. All I've been doing is topping off manually because I'm too lazy to set up the ATO again. So I'm not even dosing kalc anymore haha. he shows the tank his butt every night. It keeps them scared into growing. You figured me out. Link to comment
