Some big decisions, brother, but we know you will find peace, success and happiness. When you meet me in a few weeks you will be reinforced that you want to live as far away from me as possible, LOL!

I cant wait to sit down with ya Bri.

 

[PanchoG]

Happy to now you are making big decisions for the best.

No3 25ish (down 5/10)
Po4 down to .15

Pretty astonished to see those numbers without a skimmer running. So I tested both a 2nd time.

Macroalgae is amazing stuff.

All my windows are open and i am anxiously awaiting the sound of UPS and Fedex deliveries...

Could barely sleep.

My tank is powered by macro algae, I love the stuff.
Can't wait to see the new additions.

Hey steve, thanks for scrolling by


I just tested again. And made sure I let the micro bubbles really get out. Super cleaned the vial for residue and filaments.


Po4 .11

Ran no3 again and I'm at 30ish..

Unreal.

I have many to thank, but the relief of what Cory did by making me think he was scoping a visit or something, which turned pit to actually be an incredibly generous act of kindness. He had an amazon prime Grow light delivered to my door. The same fuge light I am running now. And man, ever since the light went in, what a difference!

The data speaks for itself!

Nervous and excited. Not a good combo. But the test results have given me some confidence. Got 10g mixed and I'm about to do the water change I had planned prior to coral and nudi arrivals.

The racks are getting wiped down and rinsed after that and then we are golden. Got the Melafix ready to go, thanks @thejuice24

Pretty amazing what macro alone is capable of if given enough light!

Is the skimmer running now or still waiting on the part?

Waiting...

While I attempt to move this truck closer to the home icon with my mind.

Exciting times of coral delivery!!!

 

[RichtheReefer21]

Full blown Salt a Holic mode right now.

Coral is all moved in prep for the first rack

10g wc done.
Testing done.
Cleaning done.
Frag cleanup and dip prep done.

Whew... T-minus 15 minutes to ETA.
Trying to relax.

Plan is to segregate corals into their "family/genres" and do 5 corals at a time, melafix and seachem Reef Dip together. 5 mins in tank water, Turkey basting, then a tank water rinse, and the plop and drop.

Bombs away.

[Fudsey]

Well???? We're waiting.......

 

[RichtheReefer21]

I fudging love you man.

Our berghias our dripping. 1 hr.

You ain't getting no pics for at least an hour. I have a dip routine I am employing. Melafix and Reef Dip together for 4 minutes. Using my buddy johns' recipe.

Getting ready to place the frag rack.

 

[RichtheReefer21]

[RichtheReefer21]

Hahaha! I was looking for a good one. Of a dog looking out the window, or something... definitely excited.

But with 25ish berghias and 15 frags hitting my door at the same time? Happy. But not happy. LoL.

Berg are in. Keith yours are in my QT. Theres no enough aps in my fuge to support any nudis at all tbh.

Frags are dripping. Naturally, the SPS gets first class flight to the DT. Group 1 is prepping for dips.
