You have some nice pieces there.

I have to go back and catch up. This thread moves fast, I go away for 5 days and it's two to three pages longer.

Where did you purchase the frags at? I think I missed it somewhere.

 

[michika]

The tiny neon orange, purple, and green monti frags came from someone in B.C., and colonies pictured in the above photos came from a LFS, Red Coral. There are two more frags further back in the thread, they came from Coral Master, a local here in town.

 

[jnarowe]

maybe you need more light?

Man I wish one of my LFS carried corals like that!

I feel so lucky to have the LFSs we do. When I used to live in Edmonton, 3 hours north of here, I had to order in everything, or make a trip down to Calgary (here) to get what I want.

Melev, want to predict lotto numbers for me next?

Like you said the pump was too heavy for the Ca. reactor. Kevin insisted that he was going to be placing it on its shelf to take the pressure off the fitting in the top plate. However while he was tweaking something today he knocked the plate, which knocked the mag 3 pump off, and in turn it caused a leak. You were right, and the shelf he had was insufficient. I am taking over re-plumbing the reactor, and this time I'll be returning the pump to the bottom of the reactor.

:lol: Poor guy has to listen to that for what, a month now? And then you'll bring it up a few months later while he's trying to fix the roof. I hate it when that happens!

Sorry it didn't work out. Remember that gravity shows no mercy.

 

[michika]

Yup, that is about right for me.

It could be worse, this morning we figured out my father had been on auto pilot when he replaced the plug on their weed-eater. He put a receptacle end on instead on one with prongs. When my mother went to plug it in to use it, she had no way of plugging it in.

No worries, the mess was minimal. Most of the water just shot up onto Kevin himself, and got soaked up by his shirt. You are right, gravity is mean...but oh so funny

michika,
You get your RKE yet? Mine just came in today! Can't wait to go home and play with it!!

 

[michika]

No RKE yet, no email that its shipped out either. Did you get a ship out email?

 

[Slakker]

Corals are looking awesome, those should grow out into really nice pieces.

 

[michika]

Thank you, and I really hope they do. I'm being very bad and breaking my moratorium on tank related spending for July. However I am doing it for a good cause, SPS is always a good cause...right?

 

[Slakker]

I would say so, yeah. World peace and all that.

Yup they sent me an email letting my know that it had been shipped. I almost deleted the email as trash though because it is not from Digital Aquatics. It came from Gillian D'Ancicco (gillian.dancicco@dynonavionics.com). Unfortunatly, we had a main computer crash at work today, so I have to work most of the night to get it back up and going for tomorrow. It is killing me having it here in front of me, and not being able to do anything with it. lol

 

[michika]

I've got nothing on this end today either. I double checked to ensure it wasn't flagged as junk mail, and no luck there.
