Calling all younger reefers

[joshinjosh]

anyone here have a mantis tank?

[Jordan55]

Use to. Found him in my rock and he was brown. they day I sold him he turned leaf green


So I am back from Phishy's! Mike Paletta did a GREAT job speaking. Big Phishy sale afterwards which was itimidating. I pick up some green zoos, pink zoos, orange and purple yumas.

Im tired.

I picked up a 1" two branched A. formosa and a small M. digitata colony at the CTARS meeting today for $10.

I popped three shark bags on me at work today. >:|

[Jordan55]

WHere do you work? Do you and Mike know each other?




My corals are starting to open up real nice. Maybe some pictures tomorrow.

The new acro had polyps out within the hour. I'll be checking on it in the morning, I'm at my Dads.

Sorry I wasn't more clear--I didn't mean to include dwarfs in my generalization, only the larger Hippocampus species.

Mike, what are the dimensions of your 15? One thing that is a MUST is height.

Please post pics as well.

Geesh.... glad my cool zoos and yumas are not worth showing. I will just take pictures and show them to my reef group!

[Jordan55]

So I just had a superb idea. Re do my rock work/tank completly. Take out some sand... not a lot.... just some. And end up with only using about 1/2- 3/4 the rock I have now. I would like to go with a pyramid look from the front.... but the side will show it comes out to the front of the tank almost. I will have the sides open to my sun coral on one side, and probably a brain on the other. Then fill the remianing sand bed up with yumas, and the rock work with zoos. Date-- No clue. Worries- Stress of jawfish.

Since no one is here, and I am hated... bedtime calls early tonight.

I <3 you Jordo.

Kayla, I will try to steal the camera from my sister. Probably won't go over well at 8am (leaving for vacation). I've been bitten by the SPS bug. Once I get back from all these vacations, when school starts, that's when I will start stocking more of these beauties. Then I'll be able to monitor and dose Ca/Alk accordingly, and have more control over my parameters. I've had a few swings this summer, and I don't want to risk any new corals.

jordan, do you have a DSB? if you do, you should remove all of it at once. and not a little at a time

[FalsePerc]

Tyler is on vacation more often than not.

I work at a fish and pet store here on the island, taking care of most of the saltwater stuff.

And of course me and Mike know e/o, you cant be the two youngest kids in your reef club and not know e/o.

Mike is back from vacation and clueless...

There's been some interesting anenome relationships?

Seems like everybody is getting cool expensive new corals and I'm jealous.

I think I will have 250watt 14k's on my tank too?

Everybody is jealous of Josh b/c his girlfriend is a hot reefer chick?

please, somebody lmk if i'm missing anything...

I didn't get any corals b/c I had to buy $341 worth of textbooks - gotta love college. And actually I don't think Tyler is jealous - he's a real player...

[Jordan55]

I think today is the day for the.......




NANO CUBE MAKEOVER!!!


You will all be jealous.

[terranova]

You will all be jealous.

hahah

Cant wait do see it Jordan. Post a before and after pic for us mmk?

[Jordan55]

I do not have a DSB.... just about 2 inches of sand for my jawfish. I plan to remove some of it but keep enough for him to be happy.

I will take a picture before and after. Now I need some food, then I will start my project that I estimated to be about an hour so.

[terranova]

What kind of jawfish do you have? Pearly or dusky or what?

Lookin' forward to it.

Hey! So do I, but I have an offer to upgrade that's really tempting me.

I'm the only kid in my reef club that I (want to) know...

[Jordan55]

Okay so this isn't going TOO well to plan.

The jawfish actaully completly burried himself when I took out the rock. Trying to find him caused a sand storm. I cannot finish this project later, I have to wait to the storm to die down. I have a filter on that tank now, I have the fish in buckets with a lamp over them and heat pads under.

I will check in later. See ya!

[sharkboy]
