Lily pipes are just as easy they only have one bend you just have to go from both sides and it will be spotless. I think ADA sells a cleaner that works in 20 min too.

I will not even try to clean 3' of tubing.

Just use a small bottlebrush to clean the Lilly pipes. I have one for my skimmer cup and they are dirt cheap online or at $2 shops (dunno what you guys would call them). I got a nice small one that came with my turkey baster.

Hahahaha how?! They might not always be the best looking in displays but they are awesome when you have ones with leaves out of the water!

Mmmm, I just don't like it. They're really beneficial but I just don't like it. Just like I don't like cheato. :)

Why is that? Was your tank still cycling? Or is it because of the skimmer.

Wait, how many gallons? I can see that. I used to do water changes once every 2 or 3 weeks. Lolol. I'm a lazy-bum, what else can I say?

Im doing five so around 20-25%.

 

How's the other nem coloring up? The one that was not doing so hot?
It still is as bleeched as when I saw it not looking good. I adjusted my light a bit though. It is still open fully though so I will go feed some mysis to cheer it up more! Im not as upset about the bleeching as I am about the agave melting though. It was a awesome polyp.

Thinking about getting a 150w Halide. I feel like with a halide I could get some serious color back in the tank and still have awesome shimmer. I plan on using a Phoenix but it that isn't blue enough for me I will probably get a Radium. With the money I would make between selling the razor and buying the halide I could get a sweet nem!
