Turtle's Deep Blue Sea

[SashimiTurtle]

I heard that Icecap 1K is pretty sweat.

They had them up there for 15% off... but no plastic and I spent my money on coral.

I added one of my PP8s in the tank last night in addition to the SW4s and played with the flow some. Its on I think 4/8 LEDs on a slow pulse. You should have seen all the detritus it stirred up when I first plugged it in. It came on wide open on constant speed. Instant detritus storm and sand was being pushed from the front to the back, threatening to cover the low rock on the right with all the LPS.

A Parrotfish of some kind. He had such a rough trip in that i havemt seen true colors yet.

In no way, shape or form is that a wrasse.

Nope....Not sure how it was mistaken for a fairy but that’s behind us. The DOA was a Radiant wrasse which luckily and surprisingly LA had back in stock yesterday so we ordered another small one and a mated pair of Long Nose Hawks.

Will be calling a couple of LFS today/tomorrow to see if they will adopt a Parrot as I don’t know anyone with a FOWLR tank. I don’t even want a credit it just needs a home.

Love that Bugout Stylo!

Right now I'm using gorilla glue gel, but after I'm out I probably won't use it again.

I tried it, and it was difficult to use. Most just ended floating up and getting caught in my overflow weir.

I have been using the Loctite super glue gel (blue container) which is much better, but each container is only good for 3 or 4 corals.

I have had this recommended by a few people. They say the formula is a little different in the smaller sizes so you have to get the big one. Pricy for a one time purchase but if I don't have to buy container after container, hopefully it will be a good purchase.

I've used the Loctite super glue in the little plastic holder thingy. It works awesome, but as you said, it's only good for 2 or 3 corals and you're out. This gorilla glue will glue a whole frag rack down and then some before you're out, but the stuff makes a mess and you have to shake it constantly to keep it mixed. I'd buy a large bottle or nice frag glue, but the last time I did that more than half of it ended up hard in the bottle and I had to throw it out.

I’ve had really good luck using Bob Smith’s. It keeps really well outside of needing to stick a toothpick into the spout here or there to clear it.

Just clicked the link, lol. I've had that before, good glue but it eventually went off in the bottle on me and the tip was always glued shut. I had to get a tooth pick and push the glue clot out of the tip before I could use it. As you can imagine, it held like crazy.

This is supposed to have a metal needle in the cap to prevent that from happening now. Hopefully it won't be a mistake!

Hope it works out. I loved the glue, just had to clean the tip a bunch.

We're at work now @najer... your guess is as good as mine. I did look with the flashlight very briefly while getting ready for work. No sweepers that I saw.

I'm downloading right now 60% installed. Midnight EST release, the entire rest of the world is playing already...

Been doing the quest for the golden bananas stuff today at work. Shhh, don't tell my boss.

Send me another cube tank this size and I'll set up an anemone and cinnamon clown tank. BTAs LTAs and Sebaes everywhere.

Just might take me a while to build up equipment for a second tank.
