Ya right..................Just joking. I never did master the clean sand bed until I purchased a Sand Sifting cuke then he covered all my chalices, acans and micro's so I went Bare Bottom. I do miss the sand bed at times but love the fact I don't have to unbury corals on a dialy basis.

Honestly I know nothing about Zeo so any info that comes from you on it I will deff. consider good info ;)

I don'y know if it is a directed correlation between the carbon dosing or what, but I miss my clean sand bed. I even started a list of things it could be so I can start sourcing and crossing things off the list.

Reefing has become really technical over the last month. I've started a few new excel spreadsheets for my ZEOvit dosing schedules and helpful links. My wife keeps asking me if I am working from home and then she sees its only reefing mumbo jumbo :p
 
I used to be more technical with different spreadsheets and such but I was spending too much time on the tank so now I try to be as basic as possible while still keeping a happy healthy colorful tank! My 2 sons keep me on my toes so the tank get's put on the back burner from time to time. When they get old enough to help I will get back to being that technical "reef geek" hahaha

You know John used to have a Good Vietnam connection for fish/corals but it is gone now. Those Blueline Angels were coming in from time to time. LMK if you spot any Healthy Wrasses out there while on your fish excursions ;)

What kind are you looking for? Exotic has been getting in some awesome fish lately. I had a hard time passing up on a tinkeri yesterday :hammer:
 
Mark,
Awesome macro shots with sick color and sweet clarity...oh, and the corals are pretty nice ;)

That Regal is gorgeous. I would have been a wreck to try and add something like that into the mix of my tank...oh, the stress...

You should have done it!

I LOVE Tinkeri's...

Yep, but butterflies love SPS and lps even more than angels. Besides, there will be no adding of livestock for two months. A very knowledgeable friend suggested that I not add anything during my slower than average two month ramp up period and I'm going to follow his advice to the T on this subject ;)

Nuttin too fancy! I was shocked to find a Cirrhilabrus Adornatus @ John's a couple of weeks ago but he lasted less than 24hrs :( I was tempted to get the C. temminckii he had as well but he was not letting go of that one at "my price" ;)

C. randalli or a nice C. exquisitus would be cool. I will have to go check exotic out. I have not even been there since they opened the bigger store, what 2+ years ago!

All I can say is do not go on Mondays :eek1: That is when they get shipments from 2-3 different regions.

Ohhhh my...Very nice, name please. MP turquoise perhaps? Mark do you have the Mystic Blue? If so can you post a picture?
 
Thanks Dan, that's the turquoise lovelli ;) I do have the mystic blue, but it's nothing like it used to be before I moved it. It's still coloring back up hopefully :(
