Wow John, this plate from TCK caught my eye!

That is a stunner! As you got that plate happy and extended, I think it would really produce a beautiful plate, as the purple and green grew out. I love the blood red polyps with the pink tips. That would be gorgeous in a good back and forth medium flow.

Happy mother's day y'all!

Im going to take a stab here Joel. Lauren Bacall?

 

[kingranch2003]

what's a "bleeny" ? is this a fish you learned about in public school?

That's a small tailspot blenny.

Good afternoon John!

Hello Kevin! I really thought your 5k club game yesterday was awesome. I fell for it hook and ladder. Very thoughtful and fun. Get that tank fund up so we can go plate shopping!

Maybe it’s a “tween” version

Luis, do you just leave the little stirring rod in while you're hanna measures?

No, I take it out.

 

[Nor'easter Reefer]

No, I take it out.

How do you do that? A little magnet or something? Does it come with something to do that?

 

[luis angel]

Luis, I'd love to hear your impressions of salifert vs hannah tests. Which ones do you prefer for which elements?

Just as I have it, I like John, although many people say that Hannah's alkalinity test is great, but I've never tried it

[Nor'easter Reefer]

Oh nice! I might buy one then. I didn't because I assumed I'd just be constantly buying stirrer as I dumped then out and lost them hahaha

Not a mom, but thanks, lol

You have fish and maybe other pets so that makes you a mom...

 

[luis angel]

I can't get pictures of my anthias! They swim so much that they just look like a blur on the photo. @luis angel how do you get such nice photos of them?

In the first few days they'll be super scared lol, give it a few days or get in position to take the photo for a few minutes and wait to see if they adapt for a moment

 

[Calmwaters]

We are heading to my sister in laws for a cookout hope everyone's having a great day.

All you folks with royal gramma, how long did you usually have to wait before you see them again? Lol

I think I can see where it's hiding but im not 100% sure. Hopefully he becomes semi confident haha. He's a little guy. About 1.5-2"

My first one 3 days then for about a week it would just come out for food and disappear. Then over the next few weeks it would be out more and more until it stayed out all the time but always the first to bed before lights out. This recent one is getting bullied by the clowns and I have only seen it twice in just over a week, I hope it’s alive, haven’t found a body but I have a pretty good cuc, just as good as the cleaners on The Black List when they needed a body and a crime scene to vanish. I usually put the food in the front of the tank but I’m making sure to get some behind the rockscape so it can dart out temporarily and get some.

Well at least I know where mine is hiding currently! I'll probably pipette some food to him so I can make sure he's eating something and hope he gets more comfortable!
