Very nice Dan. Did you say QT? :fish1:

Thanks Sara, did you start/finish your project last night?

late to the party.

Dan, how big is your overflow box? how many holes, sizes?
Welcome aboard :thumbsup: Not sure how big the sides are, I'll have to measure when I get home. The bottom has two holes a 2" drain and a 1" return and the side has one for the exit back to the tank.

happy Friday! hung out with your buddy Jimmy yesterday. good luck with the new additions!
Hey Toan, I'm planning on heading up to Jimmy's tonight. What were you guys doing in Chino Hills?

Happy, happy..........Joy, joy...........
:lol2:

Looking good Dan. How is the mythical piece doing? TGIF
Thanks Ryan. It looks like a piece of partially melted mint chip ice cream, still no branches, ugh :mad:
 
Im dosing Probidio (Reef Booster & Bio Digest) and vodka. Not much vodka, maybe 2 ml. twice a week when I can remember. Im pretty consistent with the Probidio products though, one capsule a week on the same day.

I have a question on the Prodibio dosing that you use. Are these the only two things that you use? Do you use a calcium suppliment too?

Hello Mikey...

I use Reef Booster, Bio Digest and Bioptim. Picked up the Bioptim from a friend that decided to stop using Prodibio. When the Biotim runs out I'll likely switch to vodka for the carbon source. I'm not sure what you mean about a calcium supplement but I don't use Prodibio's CalciReef if that's what you're asking. I run a calcium reactor and if my prameters are off I add whatever two part is required to reach my targets. I buy the two part ingredients from BRS.
 
OK, in order to increase my chances of success I pulled my Z. desjardinii and my Bodianus masudai. They have gone through 2 rounds of prazi and are aggressively eating. They are now on day 2 in isolation containers in my display and will be let free tomorrow. Wish me luck :worried: :D

Rhomboid trio. I think that they're 2 males and a submale. I wanted 1 male and 2 females but that's how they came. They didn't mess with each other while in QT so hopefully they'll get along in the display. Two female flames for my existing male, I think I saw him putting a white "Saturday Night Fever" suit on this morning :lmao:

Very nice fish!!!! I don't blame you for getting rid of other fish which may beat up on those nice fish. Especially since the cheap ones usually beat up on the expensive ones. Great additons.
 
Oh, love the wrasses!!!

My project of trapping 4 fish is over if that counts ;) I've got a few weeks of work ahead of me with my little project.

Gary and I are up in Rhinelander for the Live Aquaria/Divers Den open house tomorrow so I'll be drooling over the fish and corals tomorrow!
 
they look great Dan!
Thanks Brian.

Glad that you trapped the fish sometimes that is a PITA project. I'm sure this doesn't have to be said but take a bunch of pictures of LA/DD. I'm jealous that you guys get to see the facility, have fun.
