Thanks Mitch! Your always making it good around here.

FYI a simple hardware washer works great to spread silicone. Buy a value pack to get different sizes for the different sized areas you work on

WIsh I woulda thought of that before resealing my baffles today. Stuck with silicone fingers now...

I'm still ordering, just waiting for refractometers. wa1tx needs some stuff too and I may end up ordering for him.

Any ETA on those? I'm probs gonna end up ordering this weekend or early next week, although I could wait because the GB pricing only saves me like a buck on rocks...

You could, but you still gotta pay shipping. Each person in the GB is required to get to $175 if they aren't all shipping to the same address.

Well I'm officially on the GB list there...better than nothing since I guess interest here is dead.

I'll still order if refractometers come back in sometime next week, but I'll have to pay shipping since what I had intended to order was just over $100 and the free shipping mark is $175. Bry decided to just order for himself as time+cost of gas to save on shipping wasn't worth it to him. I'll let you know if I see things come back in stock and see if you still want me to order your rock. I am in east Round Rock if that sways your decision one way or another.

I only need about $20 in rocks...it's just the $11 shipping that kills me. Maybe I should get in on the GB on RC?

So it's a no go?

Latest FTS!

Roughly how big are the smallest ones?

1/2" round

If they are that small, I might be down to grab some from ya! I might be able to drive up Friday or some time this weekend.

Will order on 5/3 or 5/4 if you can wait.

That would work for me...I emailed BRS about how much pukani I might need for a 8.5 gal...I'd like to try to find some local cured LR to seed it with too...

Def PM me before ya order!

Might need some dry rock soon, about 8lbs or so...anyone still ordering?

how much is it per pound?

+1 Pics?

Roughly how big are the smallest ones?

AquaTek has 2 of them right now.

I just called over there. They are a good price too. Run! haha

Awesome...I'll have to stop by later this week...I'll call first

Anyone have one of these laying around they can hook me up with?

I've got the same tank at work. It started out kind of like this but it has morphed itself into a gsp tank! I've still got a few mushrooms and zoas but the gsp is working on those. It's been up for about 2 years and doing well. I keep a nemo for the office crowd and a few snails. It's been fun watching the gsp battle. When it finally wins it will be time to start over.

GSP just took over huh? I hope that doesn't happen to me!

Speaking of GSP...it's alive!

Only fed these guys 3 times and they're huge now!

The crabs. One chillin' on the mushrooms, one doin' his fanning thing to filter feed.

Upgraded the setup with some stuff I picked up at Ikea! I know 2 PAR38s is overkill for this tiny thing...but an upgrade is coming soon!

Bump, still looking...

Anyone got one of these laying around?

The porcelain crabs are great, where did you pick those up?

Tank is coming along.

I found em at the Aquadome, awesome little guys!

She gave me crabs! omgomgomg

Chillin' in their new home. One have them has since hosted one of my 'shrooms...:happy:

Also, I bought some shrimp pellets and fed my tank today...man that nassarius comes up quick! My candy canes gobbled whole pellets! The palys wolfed down their pellets with the quickness. I even got a couple shrooms in on the action. I swear they all look bigger/more plump now... I was even able to get one of the porcelain crabs to eat some of the pellety goodness! B)

I wanna buy 3 at once...aquadome is out. The search continues...

Thanks for the heads up...I guess I'll try the aquadome.

When were you there last?

austin aqua dome

Sweet, I'll have to check it out. Any idea on the price?

Some shots of my new stuff since they are starting to open for me...big thanks to Chris for the corals!

Mint chocolate chip paly and candy cane lookin' much better today!

My mushroom garden is ****ed at the moment...

Orange "takeover" zoa colony that some xenias have attached themselves to. The GSP on top is starting to come out too!

Side shot of the zoa colony/xenia.

More GSP starting to come alive!

FTS

I'm looking for 3 of these little guys. If you don't have any, maybe you could direct me to a vendor that carries 'em?

Thanks!

Nice to meet you Chris! Thanks again!
