Noah’s lasse method 20 long

[NoahLikesFish]

i did. didnt enjoy getting attacked by a tiger mantis shrimp trying to find cool stuff in the oyster beds and mangroves. i had to walk through oysters barefoot while my foot was gushing blood and fish were pecking at my blood. i was on a seawall so i couldnt just run out of the water without getting my feet amputated

I’m curious Noah, how did you cycle your tank?

And can we get a full tank shot?

ok i fixed it and i did tank its 1 week old now i used some encrusted dead oyster shells with chaeto barnacle and sea lettuce and other things. all the collecting i did in florida most of it died in the car. i have mangroves and turtle grass too. i got some encrusted cool shells and some wild caught dry rock to beef up my scape. the algae on my rocks is taking off. i also found a tiny gorg or kenya tree that i hope survives but im having very low expectations for it. i went to my lfs and got a gsp colony the size of my fist, a blenny, idk exact species but i will get a pic later. i got 3 hermits and 3 snails (scarlet, blue, black hermits) and (turbo, tecta, cerith snails) i also got a peppermint shrimp that my mom says is evil aha. the blenny got ich but i cured it with a fw dip and some nitrofurazone in a 2nd dip. i am on my grandma's laptop temporarily then im prob gonna have to go agian on like wednesday because my grandma will be leaving. my pc died while i was gone and i decided to just buy my reef tank (probably an irrational thing to do XD)

You collected all of that from the beach??

In terms of the legalities lol .... The shells and stuff he's good. It's the rock, oysters, gorgonian/soft coral and possibly the mangroves that was harvested..... Harvesting rock from FL. Waters is no bueno. Also if the oysters we're live it depends on the spot it was harvested, because one there's seasons and two only few spots around the state where they can be harvested because of the pollution these animals consume. And as for the softies/gorgonians... Florida's coral population has been decimated by red tide and higher than average sea temps,, also... No bueno... I sent this info on regulations in one of the "20 long" threads. Also if you're under 16 no Florida fishing license is required. You really gotta know your regs down here lol FWC does not play!! One of the many reasons the FL. State fisheries is so good.

Again, I HIGHLY suggest you get up to date with the regs, buddy. I sent them in one of your other threads but we can see how that advice wasn't taken. You don't want to deal with fines and court and all that stuff if your caught with anything that was harvested illegally..

it was beach
dead oysters
and what i read said gorgs were legal to take

 

[NoahLikesFish]

it wasnt like coral reef rock it was just oyster shells with algae which is fair game

Hey Noah I want to know where you read it's ok to take any living things from the beaches or water in Florida. Mainly so I can go get some stuff, because EVERYTHING I have read says it's illegal to remove any living thing from the beaches or water.
