ESHOPPS Mariner 70 Build

Also, let me start by saying I don't like Chromis.

Oh well.

My wife does.

I wasn't much of a chromis fan either for quite a while. Got 4 of them a few weeks ago, they add some movement to the display along with pretty much stay schooled together, they also seem to clean up the smaller food bits that the larger fish ignore.
 
Well everyone else buying new fish I picked up a Scopas tang today for $30. I also got a sea hare for $15, trying it in my 40 gallon. I don't know why but summertime I fight algae.

Maybe because the house is closed up more, higher CO2. Definitely a seasonal thing it seems like.

Yeah, movement is great. I think Dithers is a better use as Marshall mentioned. I have several wrasses that are always swimming around so I have movement. The color is definitely a nice change from most other colors in the tank.

Dithers... Reminds me of when I fill the SA tank with guppies, or rosies.

Interesting... There was bubble algae and an Aiptasia. After I put the Berghia there yesterday, both the Aiptasia and bubble algae are gone. I wonder if the Foxface didn't touch the Bubble Algae because of the Aiptasia and once the Berghia did his job the Foxface could do his.
 
@tbrown Congrats again on the Noopsyche K7! And good luck in the Orphek giveaway! I’d love the iCon myself. Love the ReefBreeders but since there’s no contest for them ;)
 
Yeah, I'm setting up a 90 so it's going to get the 2 Noopsyche Pro IIIs. It could probably use some more depth so the iCon right between the two Noopsyche would be an awesome combo I think.

That would be an awesome setup. I can only hope there are enough iCons so I can win one too. I think 2 would cover a 5ft tank pretty well so if you didn’t have the noops already I’d say to try that

I think they're giving away 10.

Unless whoever is drawing the winners and happens to think like me..

And to sum it up. I could not remember my youngest birthday. Someodd reaso. I kept thinking november was 10, not 11. December is 12...

Yup.. done...

7 kids, and 1 grandkid. I can tell you their birthdate if I'm just talking. But if you ask, all those numbers just scramble together.

I can tell you the date for all 3 of my kids. The youngest I have to think to remember the year though.

Excuse me I intend to win an iCon. Don’t get too greedy buddy….thats my job :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:
 
My dad and brother-in-law are a day apart and I can never remember which is which in my defense, I've known my brother-in-law almost as long as I've known my dad...

My son and mom are two days apart and my nephew was born on my daughter's due date ...

My anniversary is the day before my birthday and my wife's birthday is two weeks before mine.
 
But your other account can also win. It'll ship to work just as well as home.
That seems like a lot of work. Besides I'd rather win fairly. Even one of those lights would be an awesome start to a lighting setup
