I change my salt mixes regularly and I've mixed two differnet brands in one bucket without any untoward effects.

Re: Here We Go Again!

Lots of new things today! I picked up another Koralia 1 and a new bulb for my T5. I also got a little 6 line wrasse and a STUNNING group of purple zoas. All of that for $100!

Here is a shot of my new wrasse buddy who bypassed QT.

Re: Here We Go Again!

Yeah, you're right. This sort of doesn't count because .... oh who am I kidding, I've spent more on the tank since I decided NOT to spend money on the tank than before that!

Re: Here We Go Again!

Don't worry about it, I think we all do it. I just remember you saying to call you out if you did it.

Re: Here We Go Again!

Thats the way it was for me when I wanted a Mandarin. I saw them all the time at the LFS's until I had my sump completed and overly populated with pods, then when I went to get a mandarin, nobody had one...

I DID find one though.

Re: Here We Go Again!

Hope the frags are doing well for you. In the pic it is just barely coming out. The "branches" are covered by the polyps. Mine is of course larger and really looks like a tree and the polyps are the leaves. It sometimes takes a while to adjust and always is more open when the lights have been on for a bit. It is also a good indicator coral. If mine doesn't open then I know I need testing and a WC.
New new purchases. Everything looks great. Looks like I may not get that half bucket of Tm Pro after all.

Re: Here We Go Again!

Lynn, that is the lcstorc salt! Even if I switched back to TMPR, this bucket has your name on it. In the kiss my sweetlips thread I said I want to come when you girls are planning your get together in Jan! Did you see I posted in my help me with my project thread that the cabbage is growing FAST! The gorgonian is fully blooming every morning about 5 min after lights on. I'm having trouble keeping it upright though. How did you secure yours?

Per Christopher's request, here are the new zoas.





The color on them is otherworldly. They don't even look REAL!

Oh, and I got that baseball-sized colony of zoas for $25!

Here are just some miscellaneous shots I took of my tank today. No theme.
