| Manta Ray ![]() | Re: Lorraine's 125 (et. al) - The 2nd Year Just wanted to report on the change in my HQI lighting in the 125 a week ago. I am still on a reduced lighting schedule (4 hours a day and pendants were raised too) but I am already getting more color in my corals. My pink birdsnest is really getting pink again, my pink milli too, acans, oh, just everything! I love these new lights! Highly recommend them! They even make my Bluespot happy! ![]()

| Sunshine Reefer | Re: Lorraine's 125 (et. al) - The 2nd Year Have you tried freezing the mush in eggcrate? Someone suggested it and I'm going to try tomorrow. The fish store was laughing hysterically as I bought a little bit of everything. Then I think he started having fun and talking about how spoiled my fish are. They even had octopus today.

| Manta Ray ![]() | Re: Lorraine's 125 (et. al) - The 2nd Year Well I had an open house all day today to sell off some stuff to fund a new tank stand. This is a list of what I still have available for sale (too bad you all live so far away): Green Striped Mushroom Rock - Large Blue Spotted Mushrooms Covering a Large tonga branch Orange Branching Digitata - Display piece or frags Pocillapora (Pink or green) Fox coral Acan (green with red stripes) Zoas - a few colonies, and a few frags Cabbage Leather (small - great starter coral) Devil's hand Yellow polyps Palani Tang - His is over 15" - 200+ gallon tank required Pair of Barlett Anthias 12" Coralife 36w light - 2 of these HOB Aquaclear filter 2 of these, one is a 50 and the other a 70 4" fan Several heaters This is what I sold: Reefkeeper II Orange Monti Plate - Display piece and large frags Pink Birdsnest - display piece (kept a frag) Purple/blue acro (tort?) - display piece (kept a frag) Green Trumphets - Several Pink Trumphets - several Frogspawn (about 10 heads on this piece) More frogspawn Scrolling Hammer Medium Rock with 2 types of fuzzies (2 green, 1 lavender) and orange zoas Large orange zoa rock Lots of other zoas (rocks and frags) 5-6" Crocea Clam - needs some tending to (Palani Tang has been bothering it) Kent Phosban Reactor A few pumps Midas Blenny That's a lot like work, but I got to make lots of people happy in the process (and meet new folks, as well as see some familiar faces too). Now I have to decide what stand to get. Since I have to take the tank down and since the only thing that hasn't been replaced is the tank itself, I am going to replace it at the same time. The existing tank is still in good condition, but it is 10 years old and since everything else I decided not to replace has broken, I'm not taking any chances.

| Manta Ray ![]() | Re: Lorraine's 125 (et. al) - The 2nd Year He needs to live with you! You ready for me to send him? I'm considering anything from a 90 to 180. I like the size of tank that I have (6' long), but would like something deeper. However, to use the canopy that I just bought last year, it will need to be another 125. So, unless I find a killer deal on a nice used system in the next few days, it will likely be a 125. It amazes me but my tank is still very full. I miss a few items, but I kept a frag of everything I sold and they will grow big and pretty again. The hardest part of this is that Mr. BJ is going to have to move.

| Manta Ray ![]() | Re: Lorraine's 125 (et. al) - The 2nd Year Frankie, I don't think these guys ship very well. I just checked and shipping is very pricey too.

| Manta Ray ![]() | Re: Lorraine's 125 (et. al) - The 2nd Year That surprises me, if you were here I'd just snap off a piece for you. This is the guy I got for my birthday from Live Aquaria. He has been fragged a good bit but is a slower grower than the other one I had.

| Manta Ray ![]() | Re: Lorraine's 125 (et. al) - The 2nd Year I take that back, if you were here you would go home with the entire piece and I would beg for a frag to keep.
