Been a long time since last update, sorry been busy with work. Well the frag tank is doing great some new led lights on it. Trying to finish outside the fish room, which is the "tank viewing room". So for next couple months more construction. As far as the room its doing great (knock on wood) had a water emergency 3 weeks ago. I was filling an RODI bucket and i walked away and 2 hours later i remembered....OH CRAP!! ran down stairs and the room had about 25-40 gallons of water on the ground.....but not to panic, the room holds the water well. When i constructed the room i put tile about 6 inches up the wall as well as clear caulk along seams and tile to floor as well as around the door has a strip 3 inches high. So i vaccuumed it all up no worries. Sooo i guess i could lie and say "it was a test and I ment for that to happen" lol, but no dumb luck and some good planning for stupidity!!!! LOL
At least you can't blame ME for distracting you for that water overflow!
The frag tank is packed and things are growing out so well. I'm still amazed at how many duncan heads you have now after fragging them just a couple of months ago... keep up the good fish husbandry!
Ok.. Been busy setting up systems and tanks. I set up a foscam in the fish room, and added a TON of fish with on the last 2 month and half
Pair of Blue throat triggers, I set them in the QT system and fed them the food i made only. They are pigs and ate it all and wanted more. I also set some coral in there to see. Nothing was touched, although everyone has an opinion of this I have found keeping most of the "reef with caution" fish is just a matter of feeding. also the following so far (from start to now)
8-dispar anthias
25 Green Chromis
1-Mandarin Goby
3- queen anthias
1-cleaner wrasse
1- Scopas Tang
1-clown tang
1-powder brown tang
1- scooter blennie
1- blue jaw fish
1-exqusite wrasse
5- banggai card
1-flasher wrasse
5-lyretail anthias
1-royal grama
1-fire fish
3-black clowns
1-yellow heasd sleeper gobie
1-gobie pistol pair
1 coral beauty
1 foxface lo
1-Unicorn Tang
1-yellow tang
2 cleaner shrimp
1 blue tang
1- mystery wrasse
2- six line wrasse 1 by accident lol...but for 2 months getting along great!!
Now remember I feed 2 times a day, my prepared food and Dry in auto feeder. (Eheim )
and veggie clip every other. I have a feeding system that i use that broad casts the food all around the tank. With in a minute it is all gone. This also feeds the corals as well. all the tangs stay together in a group which is neat to see. I have soo much fun in the fish room .
got some new goodies!!
Neptune apex system with all the trimmings leak sensors and all the probes, and Vortech wireless module.
2-Neptune feeder (just waiting for delivery)
The viewing room is now getting pre pared. The garage will be assembled in about 5 weeks. The I will hammer out the bathroom and all that downstairs and get the fish tank viewing room done. The wife wants me to finish all that up ASAP!! which I am stoked about. So for now I will be just messing around in the fish room getting all the small stuff done. Molding, paint for rails and rack finishing.
Ya i am trying to puch out some pics, the problem is I puchased the Galaxy note 3 and some genius decided to disable ISO, and some other lighting settings, So my pics are blue because of my lights..Bummer. but i will figure it out. Thanks by the way the comments. Any ideas throw them my way
