Brian's 270 Starphire

[Dejavu]

Sounds like a good plan Brian. Sounds like all your QT tank is full, that mean this little nipper I have here may not be heading your direction? She is pretty awesome....she is getting along great with the other juvenile of the same that is in the tank with it. Maybe I should sell you the big one and keep the small pair myself

I'll have room .

Just keep all three and make it a TRIO.

The Single will be Lonely in Brian's Tank

A Trio of these fish will make a very nice addition to the 520

Just My 2 Cents
Sorry Brian

:hammer:

I am sure one will likely be available just not sure which one yet All three if they got along would be cool but they are not on the 'official' stock list so already deviating from the plan

Waiting is not my strong suit :sad2: Mods, please close this thread :blown:

Fallow Update

Fallow Update

So let it begin. This morning I caught the remaining fish in the display. It did go all as planed but there are no more fish in the display .

The left and right side of the auqascape was total dismantled. The egg crate was use to keep the fish to one side.

So here's the damage....

Yikes! This is going to be fun to watch, can't wait to see what you end up with cause I know it will be good...where's my popcorn.

Here are a few pic of the QT. Sorry there not the best.

Bottom 55

I'm holding my Mandarin's in breeder net, where I will be training them to eat frozen food.

Stick some chives in those pots. They'll grow really well

Congrats on getting them all out. It will work out for the best I am sure! Its so fun to feed a QT anyway, and not have to worry about nutrients so much.

 

[tanglovers]

Looks like it went as well as expected! Those tanks do not look too full

It won't be too much different, but you never know.

Thanks, ammonia is a worry though. The top QT tank is already having it's issues. I hope now that I move a few fish around it will pass.

Yes, I am dealing with the same issues. I am going through salt for water changes like they are giving it away for free. :beer:

Almost 100 gallon this week...I can't bring myself to start the cupramine until the Q tank is more stable.

I hear ya. I cut the salinity down to 1.015-1.016 in my Qt's to save a little. I hope it doesn't reach 100/ week for me :eek2:.

 

[tanglovers]

How are all the fish doing? Have you started the cupramine yet?

The fish are doing good. I started the cuprimine on Saturday. Seems like my little ammonia issues has worked it self out too.

Classic piece Brian, very nice. Do you know why some have a more spread out growth versus a tighter growth? Do you think it is the amount of flow?

I always assumed it was the flow myself.
