ReefWeeds Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Can anyone think of anything on the smaller side to help with aptaisia other than peppermint shrimp? What about just supergluing them? Wouldn't be a bad idea actually. Ensure ideal PAR throughout the entire thing Or ensure 1000 par throughout the entire thing Link to comment
patback Posted December 31, 2015 Author Share Posted December 31, 2015 Dang how many are in there? What tank? Not a terrible amount. In an actual decent sixes tank you probably wouldn't even notice them. In this tiny tank it is almost like they are magnified x100. I need to read up on berhia. Are they toxic if they get chopped up by a propeller or anything? If not I will definitely try to pick some up. My LFS has nudibranchs all the time. What about just supergluing them? Or ensure 1000 par throughout the entire thing I thought about superfluous them but some are dangerously close to coral and let's face it...I'm usually too drunk to be doing precision gluing. I do need to glue over some zoa polyps though that aren't staying where I want them to. Link to comment

I've started supergluing. but there are a few I can't get to with the glue so I figure once the population gets a little bigger, I'll bring in the berghias. Then once they eat it, I'll ship them to someone else. Link to comment
jack1978 Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 They'll be fine p-cakes. I had them down in my sump in the tank....everywhere. They grow and multiply quick if they have food. I went from a dozen to hundreds in a month - month and a half. I have a bunch too.

I was just thinking this morning that I should take down my tree this weekend. boohoo. Mine was good. Lots of family time. Most of everything is still up at my house but I had to take down all the work stuff already. Took me and one other guy over 7 hours to pack it all away. This year was nice though. On top of the little bit of stuff we had already we spent another 3 grand on decorations. Link to comment

patback Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 I got a tripod for Christmas and will try to get my camera settings right to get some decent pics. I also have a snake camera on the way that connects to my phone and is supposedly waterproof. I should be able to get some better pictures with that in spite of the bow front. Link to comment

patback Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 I'm pretty sure My only plans for tomorrow is going to the bank, shooting shit, and buying coral and doing tank stuff. Link to comment
patback Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 Just reread my post. I will go to the bank and then LEAVE the bank and got to a state recognized shooting range to shoot stuff. I will not shoot at the bank. Link to comment
teenyreef Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I thought that was how you were funding your coral purchases Link to comment
kimberbee Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Just reread my post. I will go to the bank and then LEAVE the bank and got to a state recognized shooting range to shoot stuff. I will not shoot at the bank. My BF picked up a new picked up a new rifle yesterday. Smith & Wesson M&P 15 I think. Now he's gotta find somewhere to go shoot it!! Link to comment
ReefWeeds Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Duh.....don't you live in Connecticut? Yes. But on the pauper side otherwise known as East of the connecticut River I'm pretty sure My only plans for tomorrow is going to the bank, shooting shit, and buying coral and doing tank stuff. Just reread my post. I will go to the bank and then LEAVE the bank and got to a state recognized shooting range to shoot stuff. I will not shoot at the bank. I was sure you'd go the way of teflon tom and end up in jail. Link to comment
patback Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 So I suck at taking real pictures and gave up. Last time I had to play a YouTube how-to video and pause it every 10 seconds to get a decent picture with all the settings. I also didn't go shooting. I DID however stop at a lfs. Only one because I spent to much to risk seeing something I wanted at the other. Kyle-thought of you while I grabbed a blackout zoa frag. Also got some cool orange zoa frag, a reef gen gorgonian, a white spotted anemone shrimp, and remember a while ago I mentioned the wierd,tiny acan type things that almost looked like miniature versions of ananthophylia??? Got one of those. Somehow I only wound up spending 75 bucks and this was the expensive store. I think he threw a frag or two in for free. Link to comment
patback Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 More to come tomorrow but for now.... Also one of my ricordea let go and was in an acans mouth. Both were looking Shitty. I left the acan in and just threw the ricordea away. Link to comment
pgrVII Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Hmmm that will do... For now.... Link to comment
patback Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 Hmmm that will do... For now.... Haha. I have a few pictures but they are either without the new coral or just really crappy. I will definitely take more tomorrow. Hopefully. Link to comment

And what is this mini acantho you speak of? Link to comment

I'll get a picture tomorrow but they are around the size of an acan head but for whatever reason, they have the droopy sides of a meat coral. I'm pretty sure it is just am acan but I really have no idea. Link to comment
