00W's AIO Smorgasbord

[luis angel]

It was just scallops and clams, but sure!

Here's what I did:

- 4 little neck clams
- 0.25lbs scallops
- RO water
- Fish Vitamins

Add all ingredients to blender, and blend for 3-6 seconds, depending on the size you want the pieces to be.

I'm still experimenting with this. This time, I added scallops and vitamins, whereas last time I only did clams. I want to hopefully create a really nice blend one day that will keep all my fish healthy, and keep their diet filled with variety!

I don't know the exact amount, but I'll show you the food from a vendor here in Miami who is very well-known and sells at events as well.

Started plumbing the pod highway. Done for today.

Unfortunately that lasted about 4 minutes!

Then I must return empty-handed lol

I never thought feeding food was expensive in my old tank, I went through a cube of mysis in like 5 days. Now, I go through a cube almost everyday :oops: the prices sure add up lol. The amount I made today would probably fill hundreds of cubes.

And you could customize the sizes small cubes for smaller tanks/fish big cubes for bigger tanks/fish.

I actually used use can o cyclops from Algaebarn to feed firefish and chromis when I first set up this tank. The can would go bad before I could use it so I froze them into cubes an empty fish food packet. My current fish don't really react to them so I haven't opened a can for a long while.

That looks like a really good food

You can have the bottle deposit :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:

Do you freeze it?

Yup!

Howdy Parker, I have the same coral. I used a bone cutter but scissors will work also. The tricky part is mounting it. I put the frag in a plastic bowl with rock rubble and set it in a low flow area. In two to three weeks it attached to a piece of rock which then can be mounted to a plug or directly to the rock scape. We have a young man on here about a year younger than you Camden ( @cdemoss01 ) that could use a mentor. I showed him a picture of your tank from Instagram. Good luck!

I’ll give scissors a try. I’ve been selling some corals because things have been growing like crazy. I have sold a bunch of anemones, Xenia, and grow. About to start selling leather. Need some space for new torches. @cdemoss01 how are things going with your tank. What brought you into the hobby? Do you have photos of your tank? Here are a few of mine

Well I got brought into the hobby by a teacher. Didn't think it'd be this chaotic for me lol. My tank is kinda cooked, it's just full of GHA. @kingranch2003 I tested p04 and it's all the way back up to .23... I'm guessing it's a false reading. I'll retest.

Hang in there, mine has been at .25 as long as I can remember. You’ll get through this just like all of us did!

I went through a really bad GHA problem as well. I used to come home from school and pick as much hair algae out of the tank as I could for about 30 min. I did that every night but it would keep growing back. I did lots of water changes to keep nitrate and phosphate down. That didn’t help much though. I think the GHA is just because the tank is new. Even if it’s 6 months old it might get the algae. You will probably have to wait it out and let the algae die off on its own. I change local fish stores because I thought the water I was using was bad, maybe give that a try. Don’t worry wait a few months and it will go away.

Yes we have been practicing a lot in the off season. We have had tournaments the past 3 weekends. Our first home game for the season is on Tuesday!

My tank is 4 years old X_X. I'm dosing reef elixer, phosbond and am bumping CUC. Waiting for sea hare. I don't know how to explain it but some of it is too short for me to pick so it's eternally stuck to the rock. Especially if it's healthy.

Do you have any corals? Or photosynthetic creatures for that matter? And are you running reef lights?

Kessil A160s 2x. One green toadstool and one green mushroom.

Yea ik what what you mean. That short stuff is very annoying but hermit crabs did a really good job on that for me. I bought 50 of them and they did a great job. Also turbo snails did good. Are you doing water changes and testing the tank?

What percentage are the lights at?
