ESHOPPS Mariner 70 Build

Except then your salinity would lower slightly each dose since you'd be dosing 21-23 ppt?

Did I read somewhere in here that you got dwarf ceriths at a local Petco? Can you tell me which one. I can get almost all of the CuC I need between Aquarium Arts, Kona and AZ Reef Monster except dwarf ceriths. I hate to do a Reef Cleaners order just so I can get a couple dozen of the little things.

I picked up like 25 of them from 59th and the 101 for free. They were "hitchhikers". Also, Goodyear (long drive for you) has Stomatellas right now. They're usually pretty cool about throwing them in my bag if I buy something.

The only Petco I regularly go to is near the Chandler mall. I need to take the car out for a spin later and figured I'd stop at a Petco or two. Last week I went to drive to the local mall and ended up in Mesa so...

Still Goodyear or 59th and the 101 are pretty decent hauls from here. Maybe I'll check out Maricopa and South Chandler at least.

@tharbin @felda001

LE has some decent sales this weekend.

Also, I'm pretty sure you're a "No" Tom, but Ocean Floor has Peppermints for $7.49

 

[tbrown]

Also, I have $200 at Reef Nutrition.

I'm thinking:

ROE
Oyster Feast
Rotifer Starter Kit
Pod Pack

I don't necessarily need the Rotifer kit since I've got a fairly decent Nanno culture going already so I may just order rotifers and find another thing or 2 to add to the cart...

I like their Arcti-Pods also. The hammers and favia seem to like it. The torches do as well but they're like Mikey...

That is a good sale, maybe.

Think I'll pass on the Peppermints for now, good price though.

LE has Carpenter Wrasses, Cleaner Shrimp, Sand Sifting Stars, and something else...

I was considering a Peppermint for the 8 gallon maybe.

"Hey Mikey... He likes it?"

So Arcti-Pods or TDO? I was thinking of grabbing some TDO pellets.

I use both. I target feed Benepets, ROE, Oyster Feast and Arcti-Pods to the LPS. The Benepets mainly to the gonis and the others mainly to the torches, hammers and trumpets but they all get some of each. The TDO and Mysis are my main general fish foods. Everybody in the tank except the Hectors eat the TDO and I think I've even see it eat the TDO once in a while.

You use the Reef Nutrition mysis?

 

[tharbin]

No. I was using PE frozen Mysis and tried San Francisco Bay Brand Mysis but the fish seem to prefer Hikari Mysis. The PE tended to be bigger and some of the fish spit it out and the Bay Brand was messy. The Hikari is 'just right'.

 

[tbrown]

Well, adding TDO raises shipping from $13.75 to $49.95. Arcti-Pods it is!

 

[tbrown]

Ok: Arcti-Pods, ROE, Oyster Feast, Phyto Feast, live Tigger, Apocs, and Rotifers ordered.

Ok, makes sense. I've tried RN mysis (refrigerated, not frozen) and RN Beta Brine several times but no fish in my tanks have ever swallowed one. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I have some frozen hikari that has been unused in favor of PE mysis. Maybe I'll give it a try.
