Just had me a frappucino from somewhere. No clue what kind of from where though... My wife brought it home for me.

We found a neat little coffee shop near our property that makes an amazing chai latte, every time one of us swings by I have to have one, dirty - of course...

Power was out from 12am to 120pm got everything hooked up besides the lighting. Salvatore (orange shoulder) was terrified and Gotti (blue eye kole) was bein an a hole.... Salvatore got beat up but is out and about swimming showing good signs that nothing more then a tail lash....there is a tail whip mark on Salvatore but seems to be doing ok..... going to feed now that the lights are on and tank looks good despite everything. Temps dropped to 74 but slowly on the rise.....hope everyone has a good day but have a lot to do now....

Well non stop attacks on the orange shoulder i think the fish might have been stressed a little which could have caused the aggression gonna keep watching and hope for the best otherwise blue eye Gotti will have to be rehomed....Salvatore gets along with everyone Gotti is an a $ $hole to everyone

It wasnt due to oxygen i had the tank running just no lights for half a day...no ramp up just lights straight to 80% ramp....im thinking the sudden chamge in lighting with no ramp stressed em out....everything is doing better they have signed a peace treaty for now.....

I drop them in a bucket 50% hot (as hot as i can get it) water 50% vinegar soak them, then I use a toothbrush designed for small children to get in all the little places

Awesome do you run em while in there as well?

 

[907_Reefer]

Within the past year I did 2 full cleanings with citric acid (1 cup/gal), first one was a stagnant soak, second one I ran a wave maker in there for circulation, which worked mucchhh better.

I haven't but that could be helpful. I wouldn't use extra hot water then if running them. May try that next time.
