Eek!  That's no fun!

I know my tanks not the best but I've definitely been enjoying watching everyone else's tanks progress. 

 

 

[seabass]

I just like to say that everyone is doing an awesome job.  Not everyone's skills, goals, budgets, available time, or vendors are the same, but you all are representing Nano-Reef.com proud.  Keep up the great work!

Just been busy but still here 

[lkoechle]

So, I had a dream last night that my tank looked like @Mariaface's tank with bacteria of doom and was doing @SeaFurn's idea with the accompanying dying rfa issues. 

 

It was not a fun dream.  i think I was dreaming about tanks because I have the QT set up in my bedroom right now for my new Picasso I am picking up tomorrow for the 25.

 

 

@coralcousins I post every week

[Mariaface]

I'm not even gonna take offense to this, @lkoechle  The bacteria's gone, and I'm putting it behind me!

I dony mean any offense.  I am just saying your bacteria is literally the thing of a reefer's nightmare 

[seabass]

I have a recurring dream where I've forgotten about a tank for a long time.  The fish haven't been fed in months and the evaporation has lowered the water level.  But usually, there is still one or more fish alive in it.  I'm shocked to find it, and I feed the tank immediately.

 

Another one is that one or more sides of a tank are missing.  However, somehow the water remains in the confines of where the walls should be, via surface tension.  I know if I break the surface tension, then all of the water will collapse out of the tank (and I worry that a fish might break the tension and do the same).

 

When I was younger, I used to dream that some of the fish were able to swim out of the water (sort of like flying).  Some of them would perch on something out of the water, and then decide to go back into the tank.  I was always afraid that they wouldn't find their way back.  Luckily, I haven't had that one in awhile.  Funny, I can't remember many good dreams about fish.

 

Occasionally I dream that I find coral growing outside of a tank.  I think to myself that I should put some of that in my tank.

I once had a dream that I was in Hawaii, and I was attempting to collect gorgonians from gorgonian bushes on the side of the road.  Usually my dreams aren't that fun though. Mostly I dream about all my fish having weird diseases that I can't cure, not even by pooring something weird like chicken noodle soup in the tank. 

[seabass]

Haha, I might need to plant me some of those gorgonian bushes.   Can you only find them in Hawaii?

That's a nightmare for sure! 

 

About two weeks ago I had one where the RFA's were literally melting 1 right after another...and there seemed to be an endless number of them of them - way more than I have - and it just kept going on and on. It was torture! 

I knew it was dream as it was going on but I couldn't get myself to wake up so I just kept doing water change after water change after water change. It was horrible. I woke up exhausted.

I'm still here. I try to post on the FTS thread every week. Sometimes I think I forget and just put it on my own thread.

OMG! You Reefers need a second hobby!

It would be wonderful if collectively we worked on the cure all for our tanks as mentioned above. Coral style chicken soup.

Well i also chase toddlers around and clean up poop in my dreams. Or sit down to eat to turn and see a pooplosion in progress.  But this is a reefing forum... so you hear about tank dreams.
