Tigahboy Posted April 29, 2005 Author Share Posted April 29, 2005 It's cool. there's an LFS closer to me than Jeff's...and they sell it for $9 per lb. stuff looks like dead base rock too. Link to comment
DaTrizzle Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 yeah its a rip but if you calculate shipping for good rock its about the same or more when its all said and done. Unless you do the priority thing where it take 3 days max but LR will basically die by then Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted April 29, 2005 Author Share Posted April 29, 2005 yeah. exactly why I just go to Jeff's and pick-up. if you did a socal roadtrip to visit peeps out here and just grabbed some on your way back...it would be worth it then for you. haha. Link to comment
DaTrizzle Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 actually I am heading to Oceanside (san diego area) in a month for my sisters wedding. How far is Jeff's from there? Is it a store what? I can just walk in right lol. They have any good corals? Does it have a website? Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted April 29, 2005 Author Share Posted April 29, 2005 yeah you can just walk in. here's their website: http://www.exoticfish.com and most go to the Gardena store. It's about 2 hours away from San Diego (I think. not sure). Link to comment
DaTrizzle Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 sweet I'll definately check it out. Hey maybe while I'm down there I could touch base with you for a frag swap? Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted April 29, 2005 Author Share Posted April 29, 2005 PM me what u have and what you wanted to swap for. Link to comment
obarrera Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Originally posted by Tigahboy haha thanks. yeah, that's the reason why I don't like to place the rock all up against the sides or back. gotta keep it so fresh n so clean. Yeah whenever I set up my other tank(43g) im going to leave some space so I can clean the glass, I just didn't think about that in the 10g. BTW, I read somewhere that you plan to keep a Yellow Tang, IMO the tang would stress and die........lol just playing, I plan on keeping a blue tang in my 43g untill it grows like 3"(I want to buy it like 1" big) and then sell/trade it, unless I buy my dream tank(180g) before it grows, which I doubt it cause I can't find a job that would pay me good enough to afford a house and everything.:| Anyway, make sure you post some updated pics when you add something new.

matthewruno Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 Hey - If you don't mind me asking, how much has your tank costed so far? Just a ball park figure... I'm thinking of upgrading and getting rid of my damn bryopsis... Link to comment
Travis Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 One word to Tigah...LUCKY... That was in my best Nepoleon Dinamite voice Link to comment

I'm thinking of upgrading and getting rid of my damn bryopsis... Tank + Stand + Lights + sump/fuge = almost $1500 but you still gotta add plumbing parts, skimmer, etc etc. Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted April 30, 2005 Author Share Posted April 30, 2005 I picked up 2 more dispar anthias. So I got a nice school of 5 going on in my tank now. I guess I won't have room for the Tang after all. =/ It looks like the "alpha male" has established rank since that particular anthia now has amazing coloration while the other 4 have become more pale looking - potential females. There might be a second male subordinate to the alpha male, but not positive yet. They all follow around the alpha male. pretty cool. Oh, and I got another 40lb of fiji premium LR. curing in a second tub as we speak. Link to comment
Travis Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 Cool Tigah, so...got any pictures yet? Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted April 30, 2005 Author Share Posted April 30, 2005 lights are off now. I'll take pics when they turn on later today. Link to comment
matthewruno Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 I wish I had almost 2k (by the time you add in salt, rock, pumps, all that jazz) to spend on a tank right now. ...you're in college yea? What do you do... deal drugs? =] ...ucsc takes all my money... *pout* Amazing tank though! I'm really looking forward to seeing it in a few months. Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted April 30, 2005 Author Share Posted April 30, 2005 no. I am not in college. I graduated awhile back, took some time off to work. saved a lil money, and now I'm in law school. if I was in college, I wouldn't be able to be in this hobby. haha. Link to comment
BelowH2O Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 Its funny that everyone is like "dang Tigah, how do you afford that there set-up" No one's asking big baller RA, or uchiha how they afford bales of acans and new set-ups. I don't see why money is such a concern? If Tigah is dealing, so what, at least its not to children! Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted April 30, 2005 Author Share Posted April 30, 2005 hahha. belowh20, my thoughts exactly. RA and uchiha got top of the line stuff too...if not pricier. and whats w/ all this dealing stuff. i don't partake in that kinda stuff! >=( Link to comment
