Yeah baby - yeahhh!!!! 150g!!

Sooooo....I got dumped my husband, as some of you know, and was forced to leave my aquariums behind.
I thought this would be the end of my hobby for a while.

NOT!!!!!!!!

Dad bought me a LOVELY used setup - I am so happy with it I could cry!! It's 150 gallons with happy corals and a few fish. It's only a few months old, and given the equipment it was an incredible deal at $1000. Even as a deal, though, I'm shocked I got it!! MY DADDY ROCKS!! He says it's part of my new start.

I can't get tight shots right now and it's not really up to show yet, but I've had it for about a week and this is it!

That's awesome! My daughter gets married in three weeks. If he ever dumps her I would do something similar for my daughter

 

[Eienna]

That's sweet <3

My daughter is only 3 now but if she ever got dumped like that I would probably not be so kind to her ex if you know what I mean.

Congrats on the new tank

Haha. Yeah...I didn't feel like posting much during the time I was dealing with everything and then when I lost my tanks. I'm back now, though!

Ask all the questions you want <3 I enjoy answering them!

Yes, I plan to add more rock. I have some dry stuff soaking in RO now to hopefully draw out the phosphates. I also have four bags of live sand waiting to cover the egg crate - I heard of a trick where you put eggcrate under the rockwork; if the scape caves in, it will hit the crate and break that rather than your tank bottom. That's what that's for. I just want to let things settle a bit before adding new sand.

Nothing is better than familyyyyyyyyyy.... your pops is the best.

Yes he is <3 I can't keep up with him but he rocks XDD

Congrats!!

Thanks much n_n

That's just awesome. Sorry you are going through a hard time with your ex husband. I myself use my tank as a getaway from whatever B.S. life seems to throw at me from time to time. I consider my tank as my therapist. Lol When I'm reefing I get lost for awhile and forget about all that. Anyways congrats on the upgrade.

 

[mfinn]

That's awesome. Dads are great.

Cal 400, Mag 1150. Looks like I have some adjusting to do.
About half the water I used was from the prior setup....come to find out the guy probably wasn't dosing Mag at all :/ but I'll take care of this n_n in the meantime, the corals look happy, and the fish appear healthy whith super appetites n________n

The skimmer pump makes more noise than it probably should...gonna have that looked at. Anyone else have that problem with the 200g-rated Reef Octopus in-sump skimmer?

There's also aiptasia...I really really like copperbands, so once I get the more aggressive fish out of the system (I'm rehoming all but one tang, most likely) I'm gonna try one. Gotta make sure I get one that's eating good. I should get some Reef Frenzy food first, too. And possibly a culture of blackworms.

Great to see you back in business. That's one awesome Pop!

 

[Eienna]

Oh, joy. Ich.
Well, at the moment it's mild, so I'm going to adopt the "wait and see if they kick it" approach.

But yes, my Dad is awesome.

 

[Eienna]

Had to buy a quarantine tank a little earlier than I'd hoped...I'm waiting for the water to finish filling it...
On the upside, I now have a T5 fixture to supplement my LED's, and on the downside, I now owe Dad something along the lines of $900 (not all from the tank.) Eeesh.
