Reefer's Garage!!! thanks so much for introducing me - Dang they have an awesome selection but wow it is a random location. Driving up it was an actual garage and I was thinking I might be checking out a dealer to purchase for alllll the habits ahahahahah They were definitely dubious of me upon my first visit but I think I am growing on them :-))))))))) Or maybe I just kid myself. Hope your little one is doing ok!! Luis is awesome. You wont find a better place for livestock. His prices are always very fair and he actually takes care of his stock. I stopped by Tri City the other day and every tank and frag was covered in bryopsis and GHA wasn't impressed 1 Quote Link to comment

Everything was covered in black hair. I was confused because I had never seen anything like it... my gut knew better and I went home and researched. Not sure what is going on at that shop. Re. Reeferes Garage: I believe it is his fiance- she is so nice to me! Like I said at first I think they thought I stumbled upon them but when we started talking she knew I was legit. She was phenomenal and knows so much about fish! Luis has been really busy every time I have been (3 times in the last month) but she has been great! Thanks again for the great recommendation!

Sancho Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 Somehow I scratched the outside of the tank it seems a tiny piece of sand was embedded in the soft side of the tunze care. I've buffed out scratches before using different compounds. Just wondering if anyone has some other methods that work. Toothpaste seems to come up on the google machine 1 Quote Link to comment
teenyreef Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Well that sucks Toothpaste is basically a variation on rubbing/polishing compounds you would use on your car for the same purpose. You start with the least abrasive, like toothpaste, and work your way down until you find something that works. Then you work your way back up polishing out the scratches made by the previous abrasive until it's shiny and new again. Depending on the scratch, polishing or rubbing compound may not be enough, in which case you need to go with wet sanding with something like 1200 or 2000 grit sandpaper. If it takes anything other than toothpaste, your in for a lot of elbow grease. Or go with power tools I've done all that on cars and on glass. Or you can do what I do, just live with it because it's too much work to fix 2 Quote Link to comment
Christopher Marks Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I've always used Novus Plastic Polish, but that's probably what you've used in the past: https://www.amazon.com/NOVUS-7100-Plastic-Polish-Kit/dp/B002UCYRZU/ 3 Quote Link to comment

Ive used it on acrylic and head light lenses. Last time I removed scratches from a glass tank I used several different grit compounds and a drill with a buffing wheel . That was a lot of work. I thought that by 2017 someone would have come up with something that requires less work. Oh and thanks for the amazon link keeps me employed 3 Quote Link to comment
Christopher Marks Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Oh bummer, I didn't realize it was a scratch in glass. No easy solution for that unfortunately Is the scratch deep enough to feel when you move your finger over it, or just very light? Quote Link to comment
Sancho Posted February 26, 2017 Author Share Posted February 26, 2017 2 really long days at work and I came home to this 2 days ago no sign of cyano. Didn't look at the tank last night....holy red slime batman Quote Link to comment

Sancho Posted April 19, 2017 Author Share Posted April 19, 2017 Stoped doing weekly water changes and cyano is gone! water params are all in check I'm rolling with it maybe monthly water changes. Came home last night scrapped the glass filled the RO reservoir fed the tank. All the fish were accounted for. 30 mins later the six line just vanished gone can't find it anywhere no fish jerky on the floor, not in the rear AIO, not in the filter sock there's like 5 pieces of rock all were removed and no sign of the fish in the sand bed. I'm thinking one of the nems reached out and got it. Stupid fish thought it was a clown fish it was always hanging out with the clowns the three of them seemed to get along never seen any aggression however the wrasse always seemed to hang out too close to the nems. Stuck my finger in the nem....no fish body...puzzled and bummed that was the only six line I've owned that wasn't a complete ass hat 2 Quote Link to comment
spectra Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Good to hear on the slime...... Weird to hear about the fish. I had a goby that way and not sure what happened to it either..... 1 Quote Link to comment
