Sigh. Contact them, they have great customer service. I had a pump go out and they replaced it quickly and now it works great. It’s a great ato Quote Link to comment

But definitely need a new pump or ATO altogether. Quote Link to comment

Tigahboy Posted July 10, 2019 Author Share Posted July 10, 2019 Yay! My Nemo lookalike clownfish are arriving tomorrow! They are coming all the way from Sustainable Aquatics' aquaculture farm in Tennessee. Also placed a proper CUC order from @johnmaloney at ReefCleaners today. A mix of Astreas, Dwarf Ceriths, Florida Ceriths and Nassarius Vibex. Should arrive Friday/Saturday. Those snails together with my Hawaiian littorinus snails and hermits from IPSF should be a solid CUC for this tank. Though I still want a conch and some kind of cleaner shrimp as well. 4 Quote Link to comment
knox_legend Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 I should totally go drive up to the sustainable aquatics place. It’s only an hour from me and I didn’t even know they were there. 1 Quote Link to comment

I think they sell exclusively through their retail store called The Coral Reef in Jefferson City, TN though. Quote Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted July 10, 2019 Author Share Posted July 10, 2019 They are here!! Photo from my wife. She said my son is super stoked, so mission accomplished. 😊 They do look like Nemos. And apparently they are super active in the bag, so good sign. 7 Quote Link to comment

It may be a good field trip for the kids to take them to check out the coral reef. 🤔 Those are some good looking clowns that’s for sure. Quote Link to comment

Did you get a package from RC or cherry picked everything? I also need to order some shells for those Hawaiian hermits, saw one running around without a shell over the weekend. Clowns look nice! Will the black stripping get thicker as they age/mature? 1 Quote Link to comment

I cherry picked. I'm too picky for a package. Lol. I have a lot of extra shells. You are welcome to some (tho I'm far). I think the black line is supposed to be more pronounced. We shall see.

Tigahboy Posted July 10, 2019 Author Share Posted July 10, 2019 Just got home. Here's a better shot of these cuties. Looks like they are already starting to pair! 8 Quote Link to comment

Tigahboy Posted July 13, 2019 Author Share Posted July 13, 2019 Reefcleaners CUC order came in today. Not sure what I'm going to do with all those dwarf ceriths (bottom right). I only ordered 15 for myself. There must be 100+. 2 3 3 Quote Link to comment
billygoat Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 I swear I have never gotten less than five times as many dwarf ceriths as I've ordered from RC. I once ordered 5 and got 40. 😅 I'd just toss 'em all in there. Dwarf ceriths are slow moving and have slow metabolisms; once they settle down only a few of them will be eating at any given time. 2 Quote Link to comment

SaltyGallon Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Did your Spin Stream ever quieten down bud? I was looking at one myself but if they're noise machines I'll avoid to keep the other half happy haha... Quote Link to comment

Not dead silent, but the sound of the fan on my lights is louder than the Spin Stream, so I'm good with it now. 1 Quote Link to comment
