Fudsey's 135.4 Box of Water

[Fudsey]

Here's what I'm doing for the fuge and reactor minus the 2nd pump. It will connect to the vinyl tube in the skimmer chamber. This is just rough in nothing glued yet.

 

[Scurvy]

Lookin good! Glad all those holes left you so many options!

 

[Fudsey]

I really want to find a 90 with female thread on 1 side so I can lower the top of the drain. As it is now, it is only about 1.5" short off the top. I am also going to build a eggcrate basket for the drain to keep the strainer from clogging from chaeto or divide the tank to keep it more to one side.

I have a blurry memory of you talking about it now. Looking good so far

 

[Raege]

I guess you weren't paying much attention at fudsapalloza. It was discussed then ;Yuck

Hold on! There was reef talk between adult chugging contests?

PJM?

Not gone, just scooped out what was on the sand and scraped them off the back into a net when I removed the GSP to trim.

That torch is a monster

You ain't lying.... needs a hair cut severely

 

[RichtheReefer21]

The cardinal.

 

[Fudsey]

So today was the day I decided the monsta' torch needed a hair cut.....

This is what it looked like before trimming. Somewhere around 35 heads at least. Made 1 frag of 3 heads and 2 colonies of at least 8-9 heads each. I kept 13-14 heads. No pics of them yet, they need time to recuperate...

Before...

 

[Raege]

Someday will get something like that growing

 

[Scurvy]

Amazing!!

Theres a Fudsey gives great helmet joke in there somewhere but Ill take the high road....

The motha load. That oulsing flow must drive that torch crazy. I cant believe how fast it grows man.

I Wish I bought an indo torch while back that I have trouble with some days. Hasn't really taken off as I'd hoped. Hoping to get it to run wild like yours someday. I think it got used to my dirtier water and now is trying to adjust to the new balance. If I kill it know where to go tho
