Good to see you the other day Bo! Glad you posted. Those are some beautiful fish! Is that a mimic tang or a juvie orange shoulder on the right?
What are you wanting to accomplish with UV? What wattage/brand is it? Corey has run UV for years on his tank for water clarity I think. @Rocco
Odyssey 36 watt. It was only like $80 but it’s like 2foot long so I figured I would see if I noticed any difference
Good to see you too. It’s a mimic and an orange shoulder lol. I have a few fish that are really special. I also have a green mandarin, orange spot, venustus, cleaner wrasse, and I just got a marginalis a month ago.
Wow! That's quite a collection! Veniustus is beautiful also! Hopefully things slow down for you, this horrible virus runs it's course and we can come see your tank in person!
Here is what I have going right now. Took the doors off the stand since the weather is nice to have the windows open. So it was the perfect time for glamour shots!
That sump is digusting.......ly clean! Makes me feel very inadequate. Is that ceramic media in the big bag in the return section? How big is the tank you're using for ATO reservoir?
Thanks doc I clean the sump around once a month to make sure it stays show room clean.....mainly because I am a clean freak with my toys. Also yes there is a bag of media in the return section for whenever I need a QT tanks to be cycled in a hurry. Also will just use water from the tank from a water change in the future now that we are done with ich (knocks on wooden stand). The ATO is only 10 gallons so not to0 big.
Where do you buy media like that in bulk? I've been buying the bags of Biomax (that comes with Aquaclear HOB filters) but those are pretty pricey. I throw them away if they've been used in a QT tank with copper.
Hey doc I use the seachem matrix. I like it thus far had it for over a year now. I wanted to also mention that the corals are growing like crazy now that the fish are back in! So look out I should have some frags for sale for super cheap....gotta fund a wedding somehow
I will a good bunch, purple stylophora, Idaho grape monti, Bubblegum digi, green monti, a couple green hammer frags(solid light green), Red monti cap, rainbow monti, green slimer, random green acro with blue tips....not sure I got it from the fish tank from the display when they moved corals to their new tank.....I think thats it for now...pink lemonade acro is getting there and so is my strawberry shortcake acro that is a crazy pink. I will be giving away a rock of red mushrooms if I can get the big superman shrooms off. They are about 3 inches across and I could be convinced im sure to get rid of a couple of those.
I'd love a purple stylo. I think I have most of the rest of those! I would like a plating monti. I've kept Chilli Pepper and Season's Greetings..how does the grape monti compare to those two green ones?
The biocube is bumping right a long. Have some cyano that spiked up, but that’s due to my own experiment with everything closing and it becoming a little bit of a pain due to work hours to get some rodi saltwater I wanted to see how long I could go without a water change before it started looking ugly annnnnnnd it lasted about a month did a dose of chemipure today to help fight it and took off work early to pick up some saltwater for the water change and sand filtration to come in the next couple days
How's everyone fairing on the quarantine front? I saw this meme again today ... a little levity couldn't hurt!
