Weekend Reefing Plans

Well, just finished up the water changes and got my maxima clam off of the slab I got it on.
Also got a new frag of Strawberry Shortcake yesterday after a trip to the LFS so I had no excuse to not glue loose frags down.
Now I guess it’s just photography time for the tanks :)

It's hard for me to tell, but is that a Bicolor Angel?

Yes!

In the back it seems there’s a scribbled Angel and hidden behind the rock is a Puffer (Possibly a porcupine puffer).

Porcupine puffer and bicolor angel!:)

that’s interesting, I didn’t think the fins for the second photo were correct, I assume the first photo is the bicolor?
That second looks more like a scribbled Angel to me.

So the second one is definitely a bicolor angel and I think the first one is two fish one of which was a koran angelfish if I remember correctly! There was a koran angelfish in the tank, a wrasse, angels, rabbit fish, harlequin tusk, etc. but I do know the second photo is a bicolor angel because I asked about it and was admiring its beauty!

I’m actually out of town for the weekend. We have a wedding to attend in Orlando and I decided to pay a visit to the World Wide Corals Superstore. Way cool place, huge coral selection and several large display tanks.

My wife and I got a laugh on the way in as there is a sushi restaurant right next door. We told one of their employees how we thought that was hilarious and he wasn’t nearly as amused as we were. Obviously not the fist time he’s heard that from customers.

When I get back on Tuesday.. Scraping bubble algae, testing, water change.

Got a few photos from the nano!
I got really excited because I found my frag of Tubbs Blue Zoas hidden round the back in nearly no light!

If I could fit a large enough container in my kitchen sink I’d like to follow your steps

This is a genius idea .
Next time I make water I’ll take a picture .
I put my 4 stage rodi unit in the one sink and run the hose to the container in the storage tote on the floor . I have a blue water jug like the ones from water coolers .
So Far it’s been ok with no spills .
But with the added help of setting a alarm for 45 mins and it’s not quite filled

Hey @Fish Styx ... you need to let me know when you go off making new threads. Now I have another 8 pages to work through. Who is even awake at 7:00 am on a Friday?

I get up at 0500 every day, even the weekends. Morning prayers and meditation...

Happy Friday, all. Bumping for the weekend ahead!

Hoping I make it north to my "LFS" to load up on new CUC. Their post of new RFA's also tickled my fancy. I'm trying to resist the urge. :smiling-face-with-halo:.

Got a GHL Doser 2 last week. Overkill for what Im using it for since Im not running any GHL monitoring, but it is a quality gadget from what I can tell so far. I Ran one line to get it started, excited. Gonna cal and run the rest of the lines for it this weekend. Shaped a couple of rigid 1/4" tubes to extend over the back of my AIO to dose liquids into the main (FWS and Coral Booster) Will dose FWS every day, Coral Booster every other day, Meerwasser every third day and Spurenelemente Every 3rd day opposite Meerwasser. Gonna let it run for a month and then send a Test out to see what I've won. Ive been playing with the KZ stuff for a while and its been a good time.
