Nice milli. Feeding always bites my ass as well. I've overfed, then underfed, and now it will be interesting to see what nitrates are after being away for a week. I don't do a proper schedule, too lazy or too much like work.

 

It's also time for me to buy some nice looking SPS and start chucking my random $15 frags that I keep hoping will color up.

 

Yea, Its a constant battle, I feed like crazy, then get busy, and its a cube of mysis every other day and this happens. I think Im going to shoot for around 5 or so and see what happens.

 

I tossed the zombies, the new guys are already outsining then, tho the pink lemonade went closer to green.

 

Your QT looks nicer than my tank.

 

LOL, I was getting tired of those nasty palys, then realized I had more rock in the sump and needed something to filter in the QT, problem solved.

 

I popped Hillbillys shipping cherry :) he has been holding this chalice for me since November

Well thats not to ####### hard :flower:

I have been using the original in my tank for years.

B is correct ORIGINAL.

Yes sir I scrub my glass with them and even spots of my starboard.

White

 

Glad they came through well, I was hoping my Mexican drug smuggler packing would hold up

I'm really on the fence, I want to try white, but I know how black looks... quite the conundrum

 

 

Random $15 frags can be fun.... but sometimes they really are just a brown turd lol

 

 

Black!

 

So its a 1-1 vote right now :lol:

 

You have some corals I want to drive 600 miles and physically steal. Mmmmmmmm

 

Head on down

I vote black. Bc it makes the corals really stand out and says 'My game is on point'

 

Im going to count that as two votes

Thank ya sir, Im in a real conundrum tho, the YCG is pissing all the SPS off bad, pickin at them, as well as perching on them constantly. I think Im going to have to set up a small tank for him. Pest coral tank here I come :D

yea, you done ####ed up bubba :lol:

 

Should have hit me up

Hes done is off and on, but only pecks at the acros. The millie the worst, I think because its already branching and he wants to set up shop.

 

Talking to a local guy about a nuvo 10, dont really want to support the company indirectly, but itd look nice upstairs and make a good home for the YCG. Hes been in the tank for a year at this point, so I cant just toss him im the fuge or anything, tho he might go into the QT till I get a new home worked out

you're upgrading already? :o


Dick :slap: (thats not the flirty slap like Kat does)

I have a flirty slap?


Lawn - you actually put the magic eraser in the water? I thought I heard that was bad and should only be used outside to clean the outside of the glass. Just curious...

I do too. It's the non scented original - comes in all blue packaging.

Just the display, it aught to be a simple swap, and the new tank is in a different league from the DB. BUT I expect it'll be a month or two before I get it all done

Yes, you'll notice no one else asked :P

Thanks man, I appreciate it. I put short pieces of PVC and used PVC caps, The tail spot uses one to sleep in, which is pretty cool.

 

This MP40 aint a joke, this thing makes the MP10 I had look like a toy. Its running reef crest at ~30% with the WP 10 in the back right corner. I had detritus blowing out of EVERYWHERE. Really happy with it. Between the MP and the YCG being out of the tank Im getting PE again, which is nice.

I was really dubious after being so unimpressed with the 10, but its MUCH better, really impressed with how much water it moves, in such a non violent way, if you catch my drift. For some reason its really got me wanting to get the new tank set up.

 

When is the big day, I know ours was really stressful before hand, but was the best day of my life when it came.

9/18 times flying and the amount of $ adds up way to fast especially paying for it by ourselves.

no doubt about that. We did alot of DIY, which she was really happy about and saved a ton of money, my head spins when I look at etsy and see what folks are charging for silly stuff. What kind of theme are yall goin for?
