The Miracle Tank

[Katrina71]

It's crazy, I gave away my gsp covered staghorn skeleton and most of my Xenia. I always knew I'd replace them, because they are genuinely some of my favorites. Now it's not 5.00. I'm kicking myself. Although the gsp is in a tank at a local children's hospital.

Btw, the baby nem is larger than my hand now. I'm going to have to figure out where she might be happy in the new tank. I'll start her low so she can adjust to having good lights. She doesn't much like direct flow either. (Neither does Andrew's)

 

[Katrina71]

I'm really excited now! I did buy a piece of rock yesterday. It's small and has a flat side and a flat bottom. Should make a cool overhang.

 

[Katrina71]

I also got a coral. A baby mushroom. (I'm a sucker for the little guys) My lighting doesn't do justice for any coral, but this little guy has a vivid rim and speckles. 90% off it was 50.00. I had tip money stashed away for something special.

 

[Katrina71]

I'd really like a pastel scoly or lobo to add to the tank. I saw a heart shaped lobo that I really regret not getting last year.

 

[Katrina71]

Islands and ledges and towers and tunnels and barnacles. Lol. My head and hands have been busy.

 

[Katrina71]

I have options for the overflow. Ignore it? OR Scape it? I do have a flat rock large enough to cover it too. I'd like input.

 

[Katrina71]

I'm going to incorporate barnacles throughout the tank. They make excellent frag holders to see where things are happiest.

 

[Katrina71]

Ya know the point the tank gets REAL? We're here! It's like a first date. Excited and nervous.

I plan to glue several heads of GSP to my back wall and let it grow like weeds, making sure to keep it off my rock. I think it has a killer look and really brings the tank together. Nice thing with GSP being on the glass is that you can easily scrape it off. morning, Katrina.

The best, strongest, never coming apart glue?

You could say... it's strong as a "Gorilla.";)

Take 1! :P

Here's the baby. About the diameter of a pencil.

 

[Katrina71]

It has different colored speckles in the middle that don't show as well in my lights. I'm hoping to get a split soon for Andrew.

Here's the baby. About the diameter of a pencil.

Yep, I'd have had that. :)

 

[Katrina71]

Yep, I'd have had that. :)

So it isn't just me that sees how pretty she'll be? I didn't even ask the name.
