Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
I can't remember how many I had. 10 or 11. One of them was a double because the doctor realized he did the injection on the wrong side. was reading the X-ray flipped over. So had to have it done again on the same day. 😳
That is not something I would want to do twice in the same day!
 
I feel like I should warn you guys. I seen one of the doctors here at work for my hip/back/leg pain and she put me on 15 days of prednisone and muscle relaxers to help with inflammation and pain until I can go see my orthopedic doctor. So I may be a bit over emotional and hungry all the time for the next 15 days.
We just want to see you feel better. You cant run us off miss lady!
 
I transferred from a 26g to my now 80g if that counts.
tanks are basically the same size, I figured I could go with new substrate, keep the aquascape and run one of the hang on the back for a few days and keep check on ammonia, only have 2 benghai cardinals and a sally light foot crab in a 20 gallon. been running my old fuge light and 2 hang on filters full of bio rubble. no coral

Sounds like a good plan!

I think you will be fine

the lidocaine shot seemed to help more than the steroid injection. I think the steroid took like 7 days before it starts working. Lidocaine was good for like 2 days.
 
I have moved from one location to another took about an hour and a half and kept sand, water, and rocks warm and wet and had zero issues with cycle crashing. I did add Dr.Tims one and only just incase.
Tank looks janky, wife even said so, but its stable. I just threw some of my unused sump build acrylic as a cover and reused 2 hang on filters for biome. I am doing the AIO and new top, along with the ReefBreeders Meridian 11 i won for the light.

They did the lidocaine shots before I had surgery they never helped me.

I could not imagine having to do that twice in one day, more power to you!

maybe they should have read your x-ray backwards!
I had something else done once and the needle wouldn't go in to my knee. had to go back and get a bigger needle. Just what you want to hear!
