Finally Put Water in the Tank!

[CMurph]

Sooooo excited!!!


Anywho, I was wondering if there's a couple people that might be willing to give me a small cup of their sand to help seed my sand bed.


Thanks,
Colin

Sounds like a plan...what's your schedule like on...Thursday?

Anyone else? I'd like to get sand from a few tanks...

 

[mattsummers]

usually home after 5

 

[CMurph]

Perfect, I'm stopping by SEA after work Thursday (be there ~6pm), so I'll give you a call when I'm headed your way.

Thanks a bunch!

That'd work perfect for tonight if you're available. I'm going to my parents place for dinner, but Harrison/Wrightstown is on my way home. Would stopping by around 8ish be too late?

Thanks,
Colin

 

[rwtucker]

Works for me.

 

[CMurph]

Thanks much rwtucker! Put all the sand in last night, and it's got a nice layered look. Eventually that smaller grain will make it's way to the bottom, so it'll look nice.

mattsummers, I look forward to grabbing some LS from you tonight! woot!

Also, it's been 5 days since I put water, sand and LR in and I've noticed I have a couple tiny snails and a couple TINY TINY snails...lol. Exciting stuff. Can't wait to get lights on the subject and really get cookin'. In a very slow and methodical manner.

Congrats on getting it all setup. Can't wait to see some updates in the future.

 

[sillygoose]

how exciting - and so it begins...

 

[CMurph]

No kidding! Stoked...weird thing, is that I think I might already have majano's or something and even though that's bad, I'm still excited, lol. I've found like 5 or 6 on one piece of rock, one of them is actually pretty large.

 

[sillygoose]

lol - better take care of those quick. :hammer:

When we first put our live rock in, we loved just looking at it for the first couple of weeks - just to see what critters crawled out. Then we were fascinated by the hermits and snails. The whole process was cool.

 

[CMurph]

Ok, first newbie mistake...lol. AIPTASIA, not majano...but that's better. Easier to take care of. I'll def be getting a shrimp to take care of them as soon as the tank is ready.

Yeah sillygoose totally excited for all the little things!

 

[CMurph]

AND thanks to mattsummers for the second batch of LS!!!

It was great meeting both of you, and thanks for the help!
