Those aren't the best, if I get better ones later, can tehy be replaced? Or would you rather I just wait to give you any?

[marinelife]

they can be changed at anytime

[Micki]

Ok, well those can work for now. I don't think I have the energy to try for better ones tonight. Long rough day... :)

[redpyro]

will get you one tonight i hope

[Micki]

Hey Eric, when surfing in the other forum, is there a "home" button that takes you back to the full page all forum? Maybe I'm just missing it, but I go into something post and next thing I know I'm stuck...

WOW Micki nice tank!

[Micki]

Evanish, Thank you! I have to admit, I do enjoy it a lot.

[Andrew]

I like how the rock is set up. How much did you spend on lighting?

[bigfalcon36]

ha, Micki you have a little colony of clown fish...ps where'd you get that bubble coral at?

[Micki]

Evanish, Thanks, we have three 250 watt MH and 4 65 watt pc actinic. We used the pc actinic from our 55 gal tank. We bought the Retro fit MH lights at Hello lights. I think we paid around $650.00.


bigfalcon36, I had 2 of the clowns in the 55 and two clowns in a 20 gal. I added each pair of clowns to the 125 on the same day, but I added one pair at one end and one pair at the other end. In the 55 the clowns would never cross the mid kine of the tank. As soon as I added all four clowns, they imediately all went to the middle and became friends! They now all four swim all over the 125 tank.

I got the bubble coral at Jacks in Sidney 9 months ago. It was about the size of a quarter. It out grew the 55 and was killing anything near it. When I set this tank up, I made the entire corner for it with nothing around it. When fully open, it now touches the glass or rock on all three sides.

[Andrew]

Jacks charges too much. I always get my fish from the one in sdney but there coral prices are alot.

[bigfalcon36]

get used to the prices if youre gonna be in this hobby, I have learned if youre gonna get something good, you have to pay for it

[bigfalcon36]

Red youre gonna have a PM in a few.

[Micki]

I only go to Jacks now and then. At the time, that was the only place I knew of to get anything. I have since grown up a bit ;)

Big is right, there are few things in this hobby that aren't costly. But... We can do frag swaps/buys, group orders/trips etc. to help cut cost. I know I have talked to fellow reefers on lots of $$$ saving tips!

[Andrew]

Send me your frags :D

[Micki]

When I have some, I will be more than willing to share! I need to figure out how to do that first. :)

[bigfalcon36]

you and me both, I am going to go over to slicktrax's when he does his fragging. So I can learn his method because the ones he gave me are bad a$$ and really healthy

[Micki]

Sounds like a great club activity! :D

[Andrew]

In about 15 weeks ill be looking for some frags

[Micki]

Down to the exact week huh? I like that! :D

[bigfalcon36]

I learned one thing the hard way dude...to remain calm. Micki taught me that one. you could be ready in 1 week, the key is water parameters...keep them in spec and youre good to go

[Micki]

;) You got it!
