Very cool carey! I can't wait to see your cube!
Ship me some CORAL !!!!!!!!!
My energy level is getting low these days, too much going on LOL
Have some bad news about this tank. My ultra purple maxima clam is dead. :-( **cry**
I'm almost 100% sure it was my fault. I had him up high in the rockwork but I took almost all the rock out of the tank to treat the flatworms and when i was doing this I banged into his rock and he fell off. I think his muscle got ripped when that happened. He was slighty open since then and today the shell is all the way open and theres just some tiny bit of flesh left inside.
Was a beautiful specimen, sucks that i was the reason it died. I've learned my lesson, no more clams for me.
carey said:Yeah, the water is spot on, finally hit 0 nitrates in the tank too.
I may add another fish here or there but I think until the 60g rimless is here I will just be maintaining this tank and not really advancing it. :-(
it's pretty much just a coral frag tank now anyways LOL.
carey said:It's a combination of like 3 stores that I get them from and I know they don't ship. :-( Too snooty for that LOL The one store in orlando has extremely nice corals and very expensive BUT they have a $10 and $20 frag section that I shop from.
I'm hoping to place an order from saltwater2go soon for some zooas and might try Mr coral.com as well.
Congrats!! I love Lawnmowers! Now you have two, right? I can't wait for the pictures, and I am glad you got him after he jumped out!Went shopping today and got myself a lawnmower blenny. This tank really really needs it. LOL
It's been tragic though already! I had the fish in a bucket on my table near the tank and there was a weird noise behind me and when I look what do i see? Yep, Mr lawnmower flopping on the floor. He fell about 3 feet too onto pergo wood floors. I put him back in the bucket and he seems fine thankfully.
Can't believe he jumped like that and lived. I also don't believe I actually picked up a flopping fish with my bare hands. LOL
Will try to get some pictures later after he settles into the tank.
Yeah, this is my second one. lol I really really like the one I had and figured since I have a tank full of algae why not? He'll be fine for the 60g tank too so I thought about that as well.
Still can't believe he jumped. hehe...he is in the tank now adn teh barnacle blenny is giving him grief so I have the lights out. Picture when everyone chills out some. lol
