Mike what's up brother? Glad you're here

Living the dream! Grinding away at work, got a teething baby who's very irritable right now, and I just dumped a bunch of money on a fish tank lol how about you sir?

This is coming from like 500 wildfires in Canada.

Over 900 fires...sorry man.

BTW battlecorals is having a huge sale on their battle boxes. I thought about trying again lol

You definitely got it buddy! You said you had a good idea of what your issue was last time right?

Hope this shows up. Someone is developing a mini quad copter that hunts down and kills mosquitoes!

 

[Nor'easter Reefer]

Congratulations!

Thanks man! Momma wanted me to move me existing tank and I said thank you, but no thank you lol. There was just so many benefits to moving the tank, plus getting rid of the basement sump idea. Not that I dont like it, but she wants a rainyday/winter play area down there and I've got half the basement quarantined off lol

It's been an an eventful week for me to say the least.
Im glad the little one is growing well, but those teething days are no fun for anyone! Keep hitting the grind brother. Im very glad to see you stop in.

Yep I do. I ran my pp4 through the roof almost overnight and they DID NOT respond well lol.

I really need to invest in berghia or something. Im losing corals left and right to aiptasia. I have pile of skeletons that im saving from the fallout. I just added my prize tropicana anacropora colony to that pile. There were tons of baby aiptasia on the back of the coral and I didnt realize it. Looks like the acans are next.

They're cheaper than I thought they'd have be! I feel like everyone in the southeast would purchase one of these. Look at the tech used to zap them!

If you're going to do it, do it now. Aiptasia can kill Berghia so they need room to maneuver around the Aiptasia. Also shrimp, many crabs, and many wrasses think Berghia make good snacks. I didn't have any trouble when my only wrasse was a Yellow Wrasse that liked to sleep in but today they have no chance in my tank.

Since sea drones are becoming a thing, maybe we can get one trained to zap AIptasia.
