[Stang67]

A or b?

A please lord.

 

[Stang67]

Or C swap TV and tank and hang tonight wall above tank?

 

[Mschmidt]

Well I hope I'm smart enough not to leave the tank half off a stand. I'd turn it too.
Thought about hanging the TV but, rental...

29 gallon

A or b?

B. Don't let gravity get in your way. Laws are meant to be broken

B. Don't let gravity get in your way. Laws are meant to be broken

But is gravity really a law? And if it is, let's just petition to have it overturned and if the petition fails we can appeal all the way to the Ultra Rainbow Super Monochromatic Court of Appeals? (It doesn't have the same effect when we're not talking about corals, does it?)

 

[Mschmidt]

Happy thanksgiving! today I'm thankful for family and holiday differentials.

so the stand comes the 12th. I'm getting live rock from @exnisstech because evidently flying it across the country is easier than finding it locally. Anyone know if there are regs against international transportation of live rock? The nearest reef store that I know about is Vancouver.

I'll get the tank wet shortly before or after the rock comes. I can't find the goosenecks for the kessils, so we may need to go with the noopsyche for at least the time being. And I caved and joined the hydros collective, have a control starter pack en route. I should probably tell the mrs about that... with it is an RO booster (she knows about this one at least). When the tank is wet and running, I'll go get the nem(s?) and clown from @MERKEY.

progress is progressing. But the tank may not be mediocreef, but my other thread, as that is the only livestock to survive the move.

You don't know how tempted I was to go all in on a joke protest on the POTM voting thread about how it was a crime you weren't included in POTM :face-with-tears-of-joy:

Sherman and clown are super happy!

I'm afraid we may never find it, I'm really sorry :(

That would a been great! Id have felt bad for marcoun trying to keep the peace, especially since no one can go try to find the picture I never posted. I'm sure though by the end of the week someone will be but hurt they weren't included.

They look good! I'm surprised I found it in the tank. Maybe I'm 5 years there will be a mysterious RFA in your tank. That's part of the risk of sending a nem the size of a pin head.

Now what else should go in the tank? I really want a heard of masked goby's. Otherwise I'm thinking chill dudes: fire fish clown goby, watchman goby and the like. Gotta help pennywise chill out some first though.

 

[MERKEY]

Gobys for sure,

Firefish are really cool also!

 

[Mschmidt]

And maybe a sohal, for the tang police out there.

One of my first sw fish was a fire fish. I liked it.

If you rethink mounting the tank sideways you can get a Vlamingi in there.

What I'll do is get a massive power head so he can swim in the flow. Something big enough to push the water to the back wall. I can probably get about 3 inches difference in water level with a pump big enough.

In that case, you'll definitely need to support the overhang. A powerhead that large will blow the tank right off the stand, because physics...

Maybe I'll just trust the pet store employee who told me they only grow to fit the tank.

 

[Stang67]

I will always recommend a Springeri Damsel. Pretty, does a job, and chill.
