Levels as of today:
DKH- 9.6
CA- 480
Mag- 1160

I brought up the bubble count in the reactor which seems to be helping with the alk issues I have been having now I just need to watch it to see if it comes up too much. I am hoping to elevate all the levels to help kill off the rest of the bryopsis.

I was in the Navy with a guy from Grand Forks

Beautiful area.

Your woodwork is outstanding

Love the tank. That looks like a TOTM in the works

Micro Island is filling in nicely! Tanks looking great!

mtfatwork · 01-09-2008, 08:27 PM

Thanks guys! Anyone have any ideas on how to get the rest of the woodwork stained and laquered without heat? IIRC laquer does not work right unless it is in warmer temps than we are having up here.

Ship them down here? Hehehe... I can't promise they'll look good when you get them back, though.

Oh I definitley will if I cant get them done before that, but the problem is the build off ends 2-1 and I dont have time to come visit you until 2-4

So I finally put an actual light over the macro instead of just keeping the room lights on to keep it barely alive and low and behold the hogfish that took the drain pipe waterslide came out to show himself off. Now I wonder how many other wrasses that went awol are happily living in my rubble rock and pod loaded sump...

mtfatwork · 01-23-2008, 11:02 PM

Well, the hair algae is nearly gone now so I figured I would put up another FTS or two since they may be the last ones before the contest is over

I cant figure out how to get the exposure just right and since my laptop with photoshop fried, I am stuck with no editing software so here are 3 shots with different aperatures

Hop · 01-24-2008, 12:06 AM

Looks good. The first FTS looks the best on my HD screen

crvz · 01-24-2008, 08:43 AM

Wow, it looks great Mary!

wolrey · 01-24-2008, 12:17 PM

I think the first shot looks the best. Nice to see the HA gone and on its way out!

Thanks guys! Worley, there are only two or three rocks where the HA is still present. One of them it is nearly gone, the other two it still has a bit of a hold on, but now I know I will be able to beat it if I just keep pulling. The only problem is one of the rocks is the one right below the anemone so every time I try to pull it my b*****d clowns bite me...
