00W's AIO Smorgasbord

[Calmwaters]

I think we need to address the elephant in the room. There is a good chance that CB might be ready for the game while I’m working. I will need someone to play the game. Quick rundown on the rules. Questions are easy but she must answer honestly. Once the game starts she must be aware that she cannot post anywhere on R2R until the game is over. I hope I’m on for it, it’s always a good time.

I wanna play lol

So I been keeping this one a bit quiet, but I picked up a CBB a few weeks ago, and look whos eating from a feeder, as well as from the water column! He'll even chase food against my tang and foxface! Buggers a pig and comes running when its dinner time!

I'm so excited for you! So many here have had such issues with these beautiful fish!

Oh that game! We do that when anyone is close to 10,000 some of the questions are fun. I think I already had 10,000 before they started doing the game.

Some how you flew under the radar, sorry Peanut I suck! It sure would have been fun to have someone who wanted to though.

I think it's a good way to get to know people by asking them questions and seeing how they answer. But I am pretty much an open book and tend to over share... lol

Are you sure you had Pithos? Mine don't cover themselves at all they just bury in the sand during the day and they eat bubble and turf algae with glee. I had bad bubble algae problems and three of them keep my 100 gallon 98% free of bubble algae. The Foxface only picks at stuff that is easy to reach or that are floating in the tank.

ya they would go under sand during day time or hide in the rock dark areas

last I heard you were Holden down the fort till way hours . No wonder your sleeping in late. I think you and Chris have the same problem . And Diana also but I think she gets 4 1/2 hrs of sleep

True.......go to bed around 3am

They bury themselves during lit times, but mine at least, come out just before lights out and set to work all over the rock work. Mine don't seem to knock stuff over although I did have one very ticked of Trochus when one of the Pithos was holding it in place while it picked the bubbles off of its shell. Then again I don't have a lot of coral to knock over.

I probably didnt have enough algae for them to eat

Alright corals are placed. Today was a nightmare lol. First the shipment shows up at the last possible minute, they deliver it to the wrong address. There is visible water on the outside of the package and at least one of the corals bags were punctured although they were not fully dead, just very unhappy. I also had a lot of meetings today and calls despite my office being slow as molasses the last couple of days & weeks lol. Also have not ate or drank anything so I am going to get some food & a drink lol

The good news is I have the corals placed now and I am very happy how 90% of them turned out & I think the placements I made are exactly where I wanted them. I do hope everything lives and makes it.

Should I be lowering flow for the first day and then gradually increasing it or leave things like they normally are?

Sorry for asking so many questions, I am thinking/working on an empty stomach and just stressed out

Blast those sticks!

@00W evening Joel! Saw your post this morning man, praying for you. Hope everything goes smoothly while you settle into these life changes and you and the wife can soon look back at this moment as the beginning of the best years of your lives brother! You built something incredible, I hope these new owners can keep it going and up to the same standard, but that said, i hope your able to pass the torch on and finally get some of that R&R that you always seemed to get shorted!
