Today started out great. I had ordered some zoo frags from Sharky's (nice stuff Sharky's!), and they arrived yesterday. I set them out on a plate rock that we bought specifically for this purpose. Today, I received another shipment (15!), and tonight I set to placing them and gluing them onto this plate. Once it's filled in, this 12 inch plate should be awesome.
So, I'm just finishing up, and the kids and Mike are at the table waiting for me to eat. I apply superglue to the last piece, and proceed to drop the darned tube into the reef.
Of course, it's can't fall right up front where I can reach it, but decides to scoot right back to the middle of the rockwork, and sand level. RRRRR. It's a 210 gallon tank, no way to reach in and snake my hand through the rocks. I'm eating dinner,wondering if this will cause future problems. The tube is empty. Mike and I worry about the paint on the tube, and the possibility of corrosion of the tube.
So, my darling hubby offers to make the 30 mile trip to Menards, to pick up a miniature springy claw. What a doll.
After many attempts, I manage to get the claw around the tube, and ever so carefully pull it out. Whew!
So, now I have a new tool in my fish closet. Cost a whole $1.50!
