There is no ups on sat. In Mammoth or Crowley We are not worthy lol. How the temp there right now?

:( Ya I'm gonna have to wait for monday until the new skimmer gets here


Right now I'm at 76 which means if I haven't managed to raise my temp during the day.. at night I'm gonna loose a couple more degrees. I'm going to put the 800w heater directly in the display.

hehe. I still need a few more things.. I really want to get a KALK reactor now.. Dripping was helping alot, but was rather painstaking since I had to refill the jug every day.. I'd love to automate it.

I also want to find a better to dispense media, changing carbon every couple weeks or so in a phosban reactor is a pitb.
 
Wow what a bitter sweet couple of weeks,

A heater fouled up and electrocuted my tank.. So far I haven't lost anything, but.. .all my sps went brown, and was very unhappy.. Luckly I Found the problem and was able to fix it, and it seems things are back on track and healing.. I'm also not getting shocked by my tank anymore. .A very good thing!

Now for the good news.. BABIES!! My clownish laid there first clutch (that I'm aware of) I'm not really prepared for clownish babies..but it's GREAT to see that they are finally spawning I've had these pair going on to years, with the female going on three now.
 
did you fix the sump leak??

if not, are you sure its not condensation from warm water and a colder outside??
 
got it, great thread and sorry to hear about the crack, I will subscribe and check it out all the time. everything looks so healthy, keep em coming.
 
:) Thanks!

April Updates! Re-scaped a little, made the mouth of my canyon a little wider.

1 of my roses (from ChinMonster) Split!
I got a few Nice frags ORA!
Blue Tort, Chips, Scripps Mili, Green Digi, and a few others.
Added another "landing" on the left hand side, and decided to move a couple enchinos off that sand..

I need to get a new scraper.. that Hard screen stuff is worse then coralline algae to get off!

I also picked up a Litermeter from a fellow RC member! Should be here this week, so I decided to get a new bin, for mixing Kalk water, I'm really looking forward to having a nice ATO/PH boost I think it will help out alot.. Currently My tank sits between 7.8-7.9 PH

The bad news... My Copperband Butterfly is MIA.. I'm not sure what happened. It was doing fine I'm starting to suspect the ever growing Bubble coral..

The Good news.. I found my Jawfish! I hadn't seen him for a while.. thought he vanished.. Well.. He is living in the sump! Time to go fishing!


and here are a few updated photos

the one thing that bums me out about these shots is it really doesn't show all the arches, and caves in my tank.. everything looks very 2d. Hopefully I can find some good angels..and maybe clean my glass next time time i take photos ;)
