you are very lucky!!!!

Micki · #**802** 11/30/2007, 06:49 AM

Yes, I have to agree.

Before I bought it I watched it's behavior for about 30 minutes. The owner of the LFS also fed the tank while I was there. There were 2 in the tank and this one seemed to be a little more agressive but the other one seemed to eat as well.

Good morning Micki! Good to hear it's doing so well.

Micki · #**804** 11/30/2007, 09:40 AM

Good morning Hop! Thanks! I'm pleasantly surprised.

Micki · #**805** 12/10/2007, 06:48 PM

CBB Update: She is always out in the open and goes to the middle with the other fish everytime I feed the tank. She eats like a PIG! She looks healthy and happy!

good news.

Micki · #**807** 12/10/2007, 07:32 PM

Yes it is. I've had her for a little over 2 weeks now!

Micki · #**808** 12/14/2007, 06:29 AM

Well, I had hoped 2008 would start out better than this year, but my hopes were busted this week. I found out I'm having surgery on January 4th.

I have an umbilical hernia that has to be taken care of.

That's one surgery I've never had so this will be a new experiance right!

Wow! The hits just keep on coming for you don't they? (and the double posts

) I am sure it will go smoothly. GL.

Micki · #**811** 12/14/2007, 10:05 AM

Oh well I guess I'll just start 2008 out with a BANG!

I really have no idea where the double posts come from. It seems to take RC a long time for the post to come up but this time I clicked one time and walked out of the room. I didn't even look at my post after that.

jnarowe · #**812** 12/14/2007, 11:16 AM

did you get the hernia from leaning over while cleaning your tank?

Micki · #**813** 12/14/2007, 12:05 PM

LOL Could be... I've had it all summer but we were building a house. It really didn't start hurting until the past few weeks. Maybe Christmas decorations had something to do with it?

Hey Micki,

Thank you so much for visiting my thread!!!

I thought I would check yours out and WOW!!!!!

Your tank is awsome!!!

I am always thinking that I am doing something really diiferent than most and then I see setups like yours and Hops it brings be back down to reality.

I really like your sump setup.

Micki · #**815** 12/17/2007, 02:02 PM

Radicaljbr, Ok this is the third time I've submitted this, hopefully it works this time.

Thank YOu! The sump works well.

The pleasure and enjoyment is in the eye of the beholder. Each of our tanks are different which is what makes this hobby so fun!

I'll look forward to watching yours progress.

Radicaljbr · #**816** 12/19/2007, 06:13 PM

Hey Micki, What do you use to heat your tank with? I need to replace my heater controller and was wondering what the experts use.

Thanks

Micki · #**817** 12/19/2007, 07:22 PM

Radicaljbr, lol, I'm no expert, but, On my reef I use a finnex 500 watt titanium heater with 0800 controller. I had it less than 1 year and the controller went bad. The company replaced it at no cost. So far (knock on wood) it's been fine. I have 2 200 watts Eheim-JAGER TS glass Heaters on the FO tank. I tried the 2 jager heaters on the reef but I could never get the temperature stable for some reason. I also use a pin point probe to keep track of both tanks.

Micki · #**818** 12/19/2007, 07:24 PM

I went fishing today!!!

I got a little boy mandarin for my reef. I haven't gotten any pictures of him yet though.

Here is what I got for my FO tank.

Surgery went great! They only did a twilight sleep so I didn't have to have a full general anesthesia or be intubated! I even ate some pizza for dinner tonight! The pain isn't bad at all. I'll take a vicodin tonight to help me sleep but tylenol should be fine tomorrow.

jnarowe · #**822** 01/04/2008, 09:32 PM

great news. vicodin doesn't work on me.

Micki · #**823** 01/04/2008, 09:41 PM

If I take several doses of vicodin in a row, I start feeling sick. Usually 2 doses is enough for pain management for me.

I did have an allergic reaction to the antibiotic they gave me via IV. I've had this antibiotic before with no problems. I started itching really bad and breaking out in hives. Needless to say they DC'd it ASAP. That was a bit scary.

jnarowe · #**824** 01/04/2008, 10:18 PM

don't ya love it when the docs give you something bad?

Not really their fault. I've had this several times before both oral and IV. I was just as surprised as they were.
