Happan Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Argent is evil EVVEEEELL I tell you. He has started a trend on michiganreefers and now he must be punished! =) Just kiddin, we love him. Link to comment
Argent Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 I picked up three of those pom pom's from the LFS and like Happan said - apparently the 1.5G Tetra tanks are becoming addictive with my local reefing forum he he he. Link to comment
directional Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 How much do pom pom crabs go for? How many can I put in my 2.5 gal tank if I were to go with them? Right now it has no live stock beside coral? Link to comment
Argent Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 my LFS was retailing them for like $24/each you could probably keep 2-3 in a 2.5G they don't get very big. Link to comment
halfpint Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Very nice setup Argent. Looks like you have a thing for Zoas. Some ricordias qould add some nice color to the tank. just my $0.02 Link to comment
Argent Posted January 11, 2007 Author Share Posted January 11, 2007 I have a pale ric but its not attached to anything so it moves around the sandbed (he apparently didn't like the rock he was on when I got him) Link to comment
Argent Posted February 8, 2007 Author Share Posted February 8, 2007 For anyone still interested in my tanks -- I have recently added a big maroon feather duster and a frag of some blueish Lord - I'll get pics up when I get some nice ones - just picked those up last night -- also one of my pompom's is carrying eggs -- got a couple pictures of that too I'll try to get uploaded tonight as well.

Captain Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Cool! Can't wait to see some pics! Link to comment
fewskillz Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 We're always interested Argent, dont sound so ignored... Link to comment
Argent Posted February 8, 2007 Author Share Posted February 8, 2007 hehehe - just haven't updated any of my tank threads in forever so I didn't know if anyone still checked out these threads... I'll also try and get a decent FTS as well -- I've found I need a long handle scraper though as my fat hands and the short handle one I have can't get all the spots I need to reach. Link to comment
Argent Posted February 8, 2007 Author Share Posted February 8, 2007 New Duster fresh out of the bag (and my new lord frag) Top down of some nice zoas (and the duster 'under' them) New Lord frag in tank... Duster in tank and a crappy FTS - I don't know why it looks that bad -- it's really not. Link to comment
Captain Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Nice... Quick Q... Whats up with your Zoo's "stretching" like they're lookin for light? Or is it just me or the pic or both? I'm a big nooblet so...forgive me for questioning. haha. Link to comment
Argent Posted February 9, 2007 Author Share Posted February 9, 2007 no clue - they've always done that -- maybe it's time for a new bulb for my 96w quad fixture. Link to comment
Argent Posted February 9, 2007 Author Share Posted February 9, 2007 Here's another picture I forgot to post - it's of one of my two urchins in the tank -- they are about the size of a half dollar. Link to comment
Argent Posted February 10, 2007 Author Share Posted February 10, 2007 Just got back from the LFS today -- did a little more house cleaning on the tank -- and picked up three more zoas frags, two headed hammer, and an enchino (or however you spell it) they were acclimated and placed in the tank while it was dark so I won't shoot anything until tomorrow (or whenever the zoas open up) Link to comment
Argent Posted March 8, 2007 Author Share Posted March 8, 2007 I hate to say this - but when I got home last night from the LFS - I found my firefish had decided to carpet surf suprisingly enough my cats didn't eat it.... I did also manage to come home with 4 new polyps for the tank - and I finally ordered a replacement bulb for the lights (my tank has started to slowly go to hell - and I believe my bulbs to be at least a year old) Hopefully this will stop my enchino from receding and will also get my hammer to open up (it's not big and floofy like it should be ) I also lost my Acan frag I had as well -- and the evil red slime is starting to make an appearance. Anyone have a 16" 70w Sunpod MH fixture for sale for cheap? Link to comment
nanoty Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Sorry to hear about the firefish. I've seen some really good deals on ebay for the 16" sunpod. Link to comment
this1fish Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 i feel yah, i also lost my firefish due to carpet surfing. Link to comment
SnowShiva Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 This tank is still looking great Argent. What is your maintenance regime? I lost my pico to that red slime stuff just appeared one day and completely covered everything. How many tanks have you got on the go now ? Link to comment
Argent Posted March 24, 2007 Author Share Posted March 24, 2007 maintenance? what's that? I do water changes and scrape the glass every other week.... And now I'm down to just 2 reef tanks now...this one and my 8G BioCube (which I am totally in love with -- and may replace this 5.5G with a 14G BC in the future) Link to comment
Argent Posted March 27, 2007 Author Share Posted March 27, 2007 Random shot of my BamBam's - easily one of my favorites in this tank Link to comment
Argent Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 Well I fear my tank is slowly dying the tank looks like it's starting to bleach out I've got GHA I can't get rid of and my featherduster dropped it's feathers I'm so sad..... Link to comment
Argent Posted April 15, 2007 Author Share Posted April 15, 2007 I fear its either because of the flatworm exit I used a few months back or because I replaced the bulb in my light fixture and 96w is really too much for 5.5G. My critters seem fine (in fact my cleaner shrimp just molted again last night and Bruce swims around in the water current) I could just get rid of the one rock with the GHA and try to suck it up out of the sandbed and get some more rock. I'd like to start the tank over - but if I do I'll go with another AIO. EDIT: Meet Bruce Link to comment
