That sucks really bad. I have had a ton of experiences like that, the package wasn't moving for nearly a week.

I can't complain too much - UPS stole my radiator and then delivered it open after I filed a claim. They "found it on the truck".

I wish I could have filed a complaint. Fedex kept telling me "your package was delivered." Long story. ...

Interesting... It's on the truck out for delivery with a delivery estimate of 11/26/21 by 1:00pm. Why is it on the truck but not for delivery today? Are they going to bounce my light around the back of the truck for the next couple of days or do I get my new toy today?

I have experienced this with deliveries. It wasn't local yet

Hopefully it just shows up today. The tracking systems can get really skewed.

I don't know if you saw, but it showed up about 2 hours ago.

I just got home, opened the box and have to run! Tomorrow is my RDO/Flex Day so I'm hoping to get this bad boy set up! Can't wait! Or should I wait until after December 5th to see if I win a 140 watt....? Nah!

I'll love to see some tank shots with those lights.

I'm playing disc golf with a friend tomorrow. Hopefully my wife will allow me time after that to rearrange the rock work and mount the light.

So I got my light mounted yesterday. I had a little trouble with the controller. While the V3 does control the Pro II lights, the Pro II doesn't respond the way I expected it to. I went back to the Pro II controller for the 90 and the V3 controller for the 75. Hopefully I win a 140 in one of the two giveaways or a $130 gift card that I'll use for a second 75 for my work tank. If I win the 140, I'll take the 90 to work, if I win the $130 I'll take one of the 75s to work. If I win nothing I'll take the Nicrew 50 to work I guess.

I also rearranged the rock work so I'm going to have to get a picture. I'm not at home right now, so it's coming soon to my build thread near you!

tbrown · Nov 25, 2021

Here it is! I didn't spend enough time cleaning yesterday, just rearranging and adding the light.

The blue under my monti is the Nicrew on my 5 gallon. Hopefully I'll replace it with a 75 soon...?

Ultra Pink Alveopora (very washed out in my picture, much nicer in person)

Supposed to be a JF Top Fuel Favia, not convinced it is. Has tripled from 7 mouths to 21 since August 5th

Orange Leptastrea - newest addition to the tank

Blue and Pink Favia (unsure which name brand and not really worried) has gone from 4 mouths in September to 10 now plus the"bonus" fireworks cloves have added 1 polyp
