Cade Chaos Grimoire

[danieyella]

Still have a couple fish to move over from the cube to the peninsula, but the terror has been relocated.

Doing some sump maintenance on both tanks today. Cleaned the tiny tank.

Alright, day off.

Brunch with Matt's fam in a little bit, then I think I'm coming home to start hunting the checkerboard and royal gramma, and firefish I suppose.

The fish are all doing great in the peninsula. The corals that are there are all doing great so far as well. I'm torn between trying to source my ponies first or starting to stock corals....

I also have 2 cabbage in the cube and am trying to decide if I want to move the smaller one that hasn't spread off the plug yet.

When I cleaned the toadfish tank last week I ripped all the sea lettuce out - it was somehow causing a crazy algae bloom from what I can tell. There's other macros in there not causing issues.

Skeletor had a routine vet appt Friday... ended up coming home with a cone because he jumped out of the car and managed to land on/trip over the curb in their parking lot. Greyhound skin. He's on 3 days of gabapentin and rimadyl to be safe, there's a pretty nasty scrape on his paw and a bunch of tiny ones on his legs.

Anyway, opinions.... do I move the extra cabbage? Do I start sourcing ponies for the cube first or stocking corals in the peninsula first?

I would probaly get some corals in there sooner than later. What do the ponies eat? Do they need algea growth in the tank?

pods, krill, mysis, etc

I guess the middle ground is to start looking for the perfect ponies and maybe a few corals while you're looking? (Idk how available they are, is there a specific type?)

I have someone who told me they knew a guy a few years ago... going to reach out today and see if that contact is still in business.

Not sure what I intend to do for corals specifically.... Mixed reef, always.

Need to try to source another purple milka, I loved that one in the old tank.

Hey-o! I need to get caught up. Sorry for my absence...

Hope that poor boy feels better soon. Happens to me all the time. I vote corals first. Spring when shipping is better for the ponies.

love the swallowtails

What are you swallowing?

 

[Nate Chalk]

I've built yet another shopping cart of fish :thinking-face:

Will I pull the trigger?

Do it or we will riot

IDK if spring is better here though, we kind of leap from where we are now to stupid hot again

To bad I'm not closer. I have Milka i could give you. I vote coral first so that the tank is set up for the ponies. I'm sure there is a certain level of stress for them if you have to get in the tank for anything more than routine maintenance.

The cube is good to go once the other fish are out. The corals would be for the other tank

 

[danieyella]

I make it confusing keeping all tanks in one thread, I know

Gotcha. Then do both. Consider yourself enabled.

Years of working retail make you able to drown out any music if necessary
