Mark's 180 Starfire upgrade

Hello Terry :bounce3:

Thanks for the laugh first thing in the morning. I was thinking the same thing :lol2:

Who is that pallet coming along ;) Do you still even have a tank :fun4:

Hey Mark! salt pallet? Never said I was ordering another pallet, but I do still have salt if you need more. Tank's still there. Still no additions. Just keeping the tank clean :lol:

Sorry T, that was supposed to be How is that salt pallet coming along :hmm5: Put aside a box or two. I will make a trip down to the bay sometime next month ;) Thanks
 
Its been really stormy here in Sacramento today. I came home and my gfci had tripped. Even though we had a tree get uprooted in our front yard due to the storm, I could not pass up the opportunity to snap these one the halides were reset :eek1: Please enjoy these as my wife was not happy that I was taking pictures as she was complaining about a tree laying across our yard :lol:

Very nice photos! :fish1:
 
:wave: Things are lookin' good bro, but I think I'm gonna need to come over soon and take a closer look:D


Definitely :p

you can come witness my bb tank :eek1: At least my water is clean. I'm still undecided how long the tank will be sandless, but not having sand has really showed me that I have a lot of clutter on the bottom of the tank.:wildone:

I guess this thread got bumped today as I was just looking at the tank and thinking to myself "all the crap I went through a year ago was sure worth it". The tank is looking good these days. I'd update with pictures, but my laptop is down for the count :mad:

I did get a new little nipper today though; and I mean little :D

Glad to hear the battle was worth it. I hope you can always look at the tank and think that those long weeks were worthwhile.

Now, what little nipper are we referring to???????????
 
Nice! Can't wait to see what you came home with. I'm now part of the BB club too...and I'm actually liking it. I figured for the remaining time this tank is up I might as well go BB to make things easier on myself. Vacuuming the sand bed, replacing it from underneath the rocks and maneuvering the gravel vac all while trying not to snap off the SPS that are growing close to the glass was becoming very tiresome to say the least.

I still think I'll be going with a SSB in my next tank, but it will also have a much more open scape and servicing the sand bed will be much easier.

Hahah....Jeremy, it's definitely nice pick up! I can't believe how tiny it looks.

Mark, hope all goes well.

I know that story all to well. The bb has made things easier, but I do miss the sand. The tank just does not look the same. It makes me want to get rid of all the clutter on the bottom of the tank :(
 
Is already morning Mark :wavehand:

:wavehand:

I went and checked on her this morning, but she has not really eaten much so far. She has sucked down some of the arctipods so I'm hoping that might be enough to help kick start her hunger.

Mark have you tried clams on a half shell. I know they sell them frozen now.
