Shroom Lagoon Do Over

[LRT]

Whoa that was some reading. Caught up now! Definitely can't leave me behind on this one! :cool: ever new build ggetsme like:

Forgot to tag everyone when I started this build thread. Glad you found. I was going to tag you and see how baby og was doing:D

 

[LRT]

But Frank its for reals man hahaha.
Gotta bring stand through window, put sumps in, slide against wall and it lives there until next upgrade lol.
Only way I could see changing sumps in future would be too jack it up, cut support beams and change sumps I guess.

Busted out magnifying glass on the babies. Its official i got a baby minecraft now hopefully she stays put and doesn't float off anywhere. Got a tiny piece of foot on magic carpet im going to snip. Almost identical to cut I took from minecraft.
Green Jb has a piece of foot on disc next to her almost ready to take but ill give it some time as she's making a baby on other side:)
Godzilla is mad but shes been babied enough and moved to MOAR lamp:D

Of course sir. Good thing about seeding with gulf rock is you will be ready much earlier than you think.
I had close to 50 shrooms in this system within first cpl months.
Soon as your cycle is done. If any..
Your params are stable. Your ready to roll. Id def let your salt and major params stabilize first tho.
2 weeks haha

yeah I’m planning on taking it slow. I’m hoping to have the tote this weekend and I’ll start my scape with long distance help from @F i s h y. I’m then planning on soaking it in the tote and then adding the LR. Then letting it all marinate together until my tank is plumbed. So realistically it’ll be around a month at least. That way, hopefully, my tank will be good to go bacteria wise at the outset.

only thing I’ll need to figure out is how to Rig one of my lights above the tote

I super braced the bottom of new stand for this reason. I'm sure I can fit a bunch of lighting up in it if need be:)
Eye hooks in bottom of stand?

eye hooks. And the spider wire stuff since noopsyche doesn’t have any of the k7 ii mounting kits left.

my stand is a steel behemoth so I’ll probably do it next to the stand for now

Wont be long. I moved minecraft into better light when I got home.
Just on last cpl days since moving her into better light she has developed into what she is now.
Babies seem to be very forgiving.
The last cut I took like this I left right next to mom on the tray and had a legit quarter size baby in few months.
That's how its going down from here on out:D
Can you get it in a little more light?
Just a little and see what it does.
It will most likely tighten up a bit but should start exploding with growth in few weeks.
Thats a healthy looking baby man
Congrats

Can you just prop up higher on cpl discs or tiles?
Minecraft ate the ab+ reef roids mix i gave her.
Do you dose phyto?
If so you may wanna put a dash in with the ab+ and target feed.
My shrooms eat everytime I feed them.

I don't dose phyto but ive considered it. Kinda thinking about starting some culture's as soon as the fish room is going. But thats a little while away. What phyto do you use?

I dont. Ive tried. Way to lazy and forget to shake and dose everyday and just threw away 2 bottles.
Reef roids is powdered form and alot easier to remember and sits in jar in fish room so I can look at it everyday.
Never seen any kind of reaction to live phyto.
But shrooms almost instantly close up and eat the roids so idk lol

Congrats,

Before we go any further I have to let you know I had a long talk with Trixie about following another thread and having to splamm it. Plus what about the loss to posts @fishguy242 is going to lose in his thread.

We came to an agreement on a plan of attack on all new competitive build threads. To avoid any conflict we are going to take this stance going forward.....
