So, for all you magnifying glass people, I just got the flipper magnifying glass and I totally love it! My kid kept stealing my old school one.

Thought I would illustrate "pedantic". I had to look it up. Every day is a school day...She is not a guy...
I've read this a few times but I think I'm lacking the background lore to understand.the interesting part here is not bothering to look up, or getting to see, several huge fish killed in a tank transfer (rcmcoy) only after 1 handful of sand was added from the old tank. make jokes about it agreed, Garf is an effective sideline instigator it'll get me new examples for warning, do the transfer now this way as planned, no rinse, transfer old sand
I get to comb the forums and watch for examples of these losses, caused by the info given from the sidelines, slowly and surely we build out to fifty pages of no loss over 8 years. I'm not lacking tank wipeout losses on page one of the rinse thread, I'm gaining them slowly each month.
what we do to find the tank wipeouts is skim tank transfers moving over unrinsed sand, I slowly edit the crashes back in on page one. 90% of the time or better things are fine
in the 5-10% lots of pain and cost are involved. we use those crash warnings to ensure perfect transfers in our rinse thread, as a cycle. you'd be amazed the # of people not willing to take chances at all, nor develop the habit.
keep 'em coming
IMHO there is more risk than benefit. Those telling you to ’go for it’ are only partly informed. The micro fauna is not the issue… the act of scooping and moving will kill (grind/sheer) most of the macro fauna (the stuff you think you can’t live without for a few months).All your assumptions are correct. We are moving over two rock structures and the other 5 or 6 are cycling in a tub of water for about three months. When the cycle is finished, I think I'm going to keep a pair of mollies in there for fun and for the cycling benefits.
We have a protein skimmer and refugium now but the next tank has bigger versions of each.
Bacteria should be the least of our issues with all the time we have to prepare. I just kind of want to "age" the next tank's biome.
I answered your question in the post above that one and then added that post afterwards, but all good do whatever you likeI don't mean to be impolite but that's pretty far from the question I asked.
And are you serious? You respond to this post, but not the post above this one that gave you the answer to your question. It was kind of impolite, so good luck to you.I don't mean to be impolite but that's pretty far from the question I asked.
I hope your day improves.After reading everyone else’s responses OP seems to know everything not sure why he even asked the question if he already thinks he knows the answer…. Just let him do what he wants and then we can listen to him cry later ….. not sure why anyone would take the chance for 10 minutes worth of work, but hey, what do I know?
*girlThis guy gets me.
Sorry about that.*girl

I’d ignore FordTech, he tends to speak in absolutes and gets triggered when called outI hope your day improves.
This is extremely rude. Please seeI’d ignore FordTech, he tends to speak in absolutes and gets triggered when called out
Is this how it supposed to be?
Just want to make sure I am doing it correctly on the salifert magnesium test kit. I know there’s supposed to be an air bubble gap in the syringe and you’re going off based on the black rubber line correct? and when it’s done, you’re again read the black line correct?www.reef2reef.com
^^ if you want a chuckle; there’s a pattern here
