jedimasterben Posted August 28, 2015 Author Share Posted August 28, 2015 I can't find my little clown. WTF. I really hope it just made its way to the sump. The overflow has no teeth and no mesh cover. Link to comment
Pinner Reef Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Sure the lil guy is around somewhere. Overflow? Filter sock? Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted August 28, 2015 Author Share Posted August 28, 2015 No socks, and the overflow is not large enough to hold a fish for more than a second, the flow through it is very high. Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted August 28, 2015 Author Share Posted August 28, 2015 I did. The first sump chamber is stuffed the brim with rock, so I'd have to take it all out to really look, and that's an ordeal, way too tired to do it right now. He'll be fine down there if he's there. Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted August 28, 2015 Author Share Posted August 28, 2015 Put a light over the rock section. So far no sign. :/ Link to comment
Steensj2004 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 So 1/4tsp of calcium carbonate powder is about 0.88 grams, which is what is in 2mL of Coral Snow. So 1/8tsp dose per 100 liters volume, or 25 gallons. Easy as pie. Nice to see someone else agitating the surface like that! Hey, where did you get that flexible, white pipe for your drains, I want some. lol. Think it would work for a return? Link to comment

Home depot wanted $4 a foot for it, I ordered like 25' of it for less than $45 and didn't use all of it. PM me and I will send it to you. Link to comment
Marc.The.Shark Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Did u find the clown? Edit: oops, never mind, just saw your post a couple back, that sucks when u know it has to be somewhere! Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted August 28, 2015 Author Share Posted August 28, 2015 Did u find the clown?No. Didn't spend a lot of time doing it, but I figured that it would come to the surface looking for food but it hasn't. Link to comment

jedimasterben Posted August 29, 2015 Author Share Posted August 29, 2015 Those little files are so cool, ive been wanting a pair muself. Are they really super shy? Nooo. They are super personable. From my computer desk, the QT is behind my display, and I can only see about 1/3 of it. The filefish is staying in that part and is watching me! Isn't scared of me, either. He's awesome so far. Benny really is it the size of my pinky toenail? Nah, just a bit bigger A bit bigger than the size of a quarter for the body, the fins add a little bit. Link to comment
