What attempt is this? ;)
My green is in perfect shape, so it will be attempt three, but only the one i had shipped died .

i just would rather have a blue than a green so i will get them both ;)
 
yes this is my first attempt. it was 89 dollars.
so far its attached. i tried feeding it but i dont think iots ready yet.. maybe im anxious to see it do its thing. been afk been looking at it. today was a big day for my tank. picked up 2 modded MJs for 30 a pop..

the people at the LFS said to dose this please correct me if they are wrong

iodine
iron
i purchased both of those and will be dosing them in a few days ( want everything to get settled before i start adding stuff.

i also picked up a jug of kalkwasser powder for 5 dollars. ( add 2 teaspoons to a gallon of fresh water and let it drop all day ) i know the rule. dont dose anything i cant test for. but my LFS tests for calc. and my last reading was 280 ppm so im going to dose a gallon of it and see what happens. how long should i let a gallon drip for? i have IV tubing lines ( ex paramedic ) im going to rig something up with a gallon jug of some sort...

anyways
thanx for the great reviews =)

someone buy me a real digital camera!
 
GSMguy if you want me to keep my eyes open for another one in that price range i will. shoot me a PM.. ohios a long shipment but your call.
if i see a nice one i can put a down payment on it and than we can go from there etc etc ... the LFS said they had like 30 people come up and offer them twice as much as i did for it. but since i put cash down. first come first serve.. =)
 
zestay.. lancefish are silverslides. (im 99% possative anyways)

dont dose iodine unless you really slack on water changes and have a VERY good test kit for it. iodine dosing usually causes more harm than good.
 
no more shipping for me. all my nems will come from LFS that have had them for a while doing well.

i dont dose anything i dont test for, so i dont dose iodine, and i dont dose iron.

be carefull with those MJmods they are powerfull,
 
i do belive i will start dosing the iodine + iron. about half that is reccomended. the iodine will also help my shrimps molt etc etc
 
so my nems mouth isint gaping. but it isint tightly shut. its about the size opening of a dime. is this normal? is it acclimating? its not deflated at all. nothing hanging out ....

and its a general agreement that true percs will host in this carpet? this is S.haddoni correct?

Not always. It is not their natural host.
