  1. Well so much for setting up the tank. Found a water leak in our closet that soaked everything on the floor. Sigh. Thankfully it wasn't a tank leak lol. Gotta call the maintenance man, let him gawk at the tanks, then show him the leak. When it rains....

      shoulda called the right kind of maintenance man, you know my dehumidifier would have dried that place out in a few hours...goober

  2. Been away from the board for a while. Life happens, and when it rains it pours. I hope to get caught up on what's going on here. I'll have to post the updates to all the tanks, as well as the new one were FINALLY getting up and running today. Yay!

  3. Woohoo! Last day at AT&T before I start my new job on Monday. Yay!

  4. debating on putting sand in my frag tank, and pondering how to do a WC on it with pods swimming everywhere.

      *face palm* I see what you mean. The setup is a 7.5 gallon barebottom, with a large colony of zoas, and the rest is rocks with gsp, and a bunch of other things scattered around the tank. I have a modded AC fuge on the back, that is packed with macro and cheato, but a lot of the pods are in the DT all over the frags and walls.

  5. Watching copepods is like finding Waldo.

  6. Everything still available. Will also consider trades for LPS.
  7. How do I cut a leg of a starfish off?

      Robin uses our coral cutters.

  8. Trying to make some room in the cube, so I have a few things up for grabs. Torch Coral: $20 SOLD One large head. Skeleton is about 3 inches long. The base of the head is about 3 inches when inflated, and the tentacles reach about 6-7 inches across, very long. Also, some tentacles have multiple bubble tips on the ends, kinda looking like frogspawn. It's just growing too big and starting to reach my other corals. GSP Plug: $5 A plug covered in GSP. Devil's Hand leather $10 Frag is about 2-3 inches. Already attached to rocks.
  9. Note to self: check filter media more often. Flooded my living room this morning. Sigh.

      well most times, when something is already dying hermits will just eat the dead part (thats probably why they are all over them).

      what he said.

  11. Finally moved my big catfish back to his tank after being mauled and healed. AND he's eating again. So relieved.

  12. You guys are the bestest and I can't thank you enough for all the help and knowledge (and rescues) you have given me over the years.
  13. Seahorses.

      I told her she needed something hot to hold while out there.

  15. WOOHOO!! A Southside meeting! We will be there! I the Dome
  16. I accidently knocked some off our light into my tank, right over my 4 headed hammer coral. I lost all of them over a few days. I know they are more sensitive but still thought I would throw my 0.02 in. I hope it pulls through.
  17. Katz's is closing. :( I thought they never closed..

  18. My clowns started hosting their GBTA last week, and now one kicked the other out :(

      Was one of the clowns snoring? :)

  19. Honestly I don't know. I didn't have the right lighting to keep an anenome in my tank until recently, and killed 3 of them already learning this over the last year, so I decided to wait to get one until our 58 is set up with the new lights. Recently, the clown started hosting a rock cave near my engineer goby's entrance, but the rest of the clowns are not mature enough to respond to it. It's about 2 1/2- 3 yrs old.
  20. I decided to keep my "burnt orange" and misbar clowns in hopes that they pair up, so I am selling my Ocellaris. Asking $15 for it. Very fat and healthy. Eats anything you feed. Will also consider trade for corals. Please no GSP, Xenia, mushrooms, kenyas. Those have all been flourishing lol. Hmm gonna have to trim that soon now that I think about it.
  21. Almost have everything moved into my cube that I want to keep.
