jack1978 Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Great job on the tile, man. Like Chris said, the only way is to knock down the thin-set/mortar in your grout lines and reapply the grout...not a big deal. Nice job! Your house is cool, I like the Oldies! Mine was built in the 20's and pretty similar to yours. We busted out a 3rd "bedroom" and created a giant living/dining room. Now I need to add a room or two to make it functional Your bathroom.......gut it. Your house is a raised foundation I'm guessing? Those horizontal cracks through your tile are no bueno...you can see how much things have shifted by looking at the broken grout lines. I'd look below the house to make sure all is solid before you do too much interior work. Tank looks good....I like that cap! Link to comment

The process of me killing my lone, very small aptasia: My buddy this weekend: New frags opening up: Love these Latin Lovers, in person the pink is SO vibrant! Did all my water testing and water change this weekend. Ammonia -- 0 ALK -- 8 Calc -- 450 Nitrates -- 0 Everything is looking great, loving the new corals.

Begow Posted January 13, 2015 Author Share Posted January 13, 2015 Some quick pics tonight: First time the Pom Pom has ever came out, I think the Clownfish was just as surprised as I was: My son and I at MOSI in Tampa this weekend: Baby boy in the illusion box, he's so damn cute! Funny enough, this whole time I've had the tank I haven't had one issues with nuisance algae or anything. Now, since I've started using frozen food once a week, and KZ Pohl's CV one a night (1 drop) I am getting a light brown film which may be Cyano show up on my sand bed.... I wish I could figure out which one is causing it, because I just wouldn't feed frozen. The CV is advertised to NOT cause cyano and issues so maybe it's the frozen. Hmmm. Maybe I need a bigger CUC.
