I love this thread. Usually it all gets posted at once.
This way is much better. Post a chronicle, get some feedback.

Happy Easter KodiakBear!

Happy Easter everyone!
If you're not a Christian, or don't celebrate for some other reason: Happy Sunday!

Thanks for the non-denominational easter greeting!!! Happy easter to you

Today was the big day! Aquaman3680 sent me some Halimeda and I just finished putting it in the tank! There was a lot more than I was expecting, so there's some in the fuge and some in my QT too. Even had a little piece of calupera mixed in. That went straight into the QT. If it does alright there, then I'll consider putting it in the fuge.
I even cleaned the glass, and sucked some of the cyano up to make the tank all pretty for some pictures, and wouldn't you know it?! My wife took the camera with her to the stable today (one of the mares foaled last night)!
I promise, as soon as she gets back, and the batteries are recharged (since I'm sure she is going to suck all of them dry taking pictures of the new baby) I'll get some pics for everyone.
Seems weird that I'm excited about algae, but with the fish in the QT, there hasn't been a lot going on in the tank for a while.

Where was I when this thread was being created? I don't miss anything.
Very entertaining chronicle, I love the progression. Keep up the good work. Oh, and your skills with duct tape are priceless! LOL!

Great Story and photo journal. Karma to you.

saltwaterfarm · 04-19-2007, 09:43 AM

Gratz on the foal! Waiting on pics. Of both...

AnotherLousy1 · 04-19-2007, 03:38 PM

YES, Great thread. I look forward to updates on how this bad boy comes along.

Still waiting....

Okay, okay, I'll post the pic. The batteries were completely dead when she brought the camera home, so I just plugged them in overnight, and left for work. When I got home, she had taken the camera to the barn AGAIN!!! This time there was enough life in the cells to get a couple pics, but certainly not good ones.

There's quite a bit in the sump, and some in the QT too. Aquaman must have some pretty big hands (he said it would be about a handful's worth)

And here's the foal with her proud owner (mama wasn't liking the flash, so it's the only pic we have of it so far. More will come when it goes out into the field):

Woodstock · 04-20-2007, 06:04 AM

Wow! That is a lot of halimeda

Beautiful foal!! I used to have four horses; two of which where brood mares so spring time was usually spent sleeping at the barn waiting for one of them to foal.

Been there, done that. My family bred quarter horses while I was growing up. Fortunantly, this foal isn't mine, so I wasn't the one waiting up for it! It was born on the night of the new moon around 6:30am
