LOL. just saved one of my hermit crabs. there are a couple old clam shells that have merged onto my LR and have become a part of it over time and one of my blue leg hermits was stuck inside of it. I thought he was just hangin out past day or so, but i could barely get him out of there. had to...

I'll post pics in a bet, I'm kind of doing a half a** acclimation, just letting a little more tank water in every 10 minutes. I wana try for at least 1 hour acclimation. been reading lots about how easily cleaner shrimps die when introduced into new environments where the water may have...

Yeah, to be honest I knew in the back of my mind that this supplement was sort of unnecessary but It was $7 and I know the guy struggles to keep his business afloat. I don't mind tossin a couple dollars in the guys pocket so he can keep his shop runnin. Shrimp still acclimating though, will...

So they didn't have any false percs, which are the only ones I'm interested in. I ended up getting a pretty decent size cleaner shrimp. a good 2 inches long for $29.99 and a bottle of this iodine buffer, the guy said I needed it with inverts...that dude talks me into buyin some chemical every...

Yeah sorry I type stuff and it just makes no sense sometimes. Anyways, I didn't think I'd have the energy to do anything today but imma go get two clowns right now and then 3 gallons of water, which i will mix prob tomorrow to do a water change on wednesday. That should give the clowns enough...

Ah... how quickly things change. Prob gonna go back home to suburbs, scoop some buddies then head back here and go out. I'll prob end up doin the water change and adding fish next weekend. Never hurt anyone to wait I suppose. Thanks for your response Nissan.

Oook. So I just got done cleaning my apt and checked all my levels. Everything is PERFECT. That live rock I has really does wonders, that top flat piece is a pretty strong piece. While my tank has only been up 16-17 days I really feel that I should start stocking. If the levels are this stable I...

hahaha. yeahh... i can't resist. best part about livin in chicago, you can get any type of food delivered late night. gotta love it. this place im ordering from is absolutel garbage mexican food, but they make jalopeno poppers from scratch that are unreal. so i usually grab some of those too.

I'm bout to order 3 steak tacos, cilantro and onion only with limes on the side. hit em with some lime juice and that green salsa.... what up..... where you at... where you at with your tacos huh... yeah thats what i thoughTTTTTTT

should i give the crab a chance to munch them down, or does that risk him popping them and spreading? I guess I can just clip them to be on the safe side

nope. its the green kind. pretty decent sized, two bubbles. Have just been reading emerald crabs will eat them. Haven't noticed it has been here yet, so I will wait a day or so and see if he gets around to them, if he doesn't i duno. Prob take rock into sep bucket of water to remove them...

Is what good I got some bubble algae in my tank too :(

Yeah I just got the one but shes pretty cool. I adopted her and got pretty lucky, she never does anything real, really cool cat. Anyways... My large piece of figi the top flat piece of rock.. I had lots of pencil sized holes through it where bristle worms live... I just now noticed something...

Nassarius and ceriths it is! Will check/post levels later, just got home long day. Eating some din din and tryin to ignore my cat meowing non stop. she meows for a good 10-15 minutes straight after I get home. At first I thought it was a yayyy you came back i love you but coupled with the...

i would put the lights on right now and grab a pic but i saw my emerald crab eating that grass algae stuff and I want it gone. if I turn the lights on or anything he will scatter but hey, is there any reason why my snails when on the glass, all seem to travel towards the top at some point and...

Yeah I have one. I for some reason thought it would be bad to stir up the algae or whatever. I'll make sure to clean whatever these snails haven't gotten to in the morning. I put all 5 on this one side and they are racing to see who will win. om nom nom algae %h Also, while on the topic of...

So theres a bit of algae (greenish) forming on my glass, a bit in an area of my sandbed as well. I slapped the sand area around a bit, prob stupid after the thought, i prob just spread little algae spores everywhere, so there might be a bigger bloom coming now. Also took the snails and put them...

LOL... naaah Anyways, back to fish talk. So I'm thinkin I wana try to stock the corals by color. Try to get a little variety. I'll be drooling over pretty coral for the next hour or so and try to put together a list. Know any really colorful cheap corals? feel free to list em.

Nope, so..I go out to my car to grab dry cleaning, give my nose a minute to rest and then decide to come back to my apt. I start walkin up the stairs towards my floor 3, and can smell weed already. So I walk down the 2nd floor hall and sure enough, door open and a kid leaving in the apt below...

Yeah I was gonna say I need something for my sand bed. I'll look into those. Do you think it's dried salt water that is causing the skunk smell? Either that or the guy who lives above me is harvesting about 800 lbs of weed lol.
