I'm back.


Was offline in the move for a long time(and still not done). . . So. My ammonia(as of Fri, haven't tested more recently) was at .3 and my nitrites were up a bit. Not quite at the first test marker though. Both of my hermits are alive, as is one of my nerite snails. Most of my zoas made it, and my blasto made it,also one of my 2 rics. EVERYTHING else died. Over $260 worth of livestock. Or in better terms, over 2x my last paycheck. *sighs* So after I re-cycle my tank, I have to try to scrape together money not only for a new clean up crew and new fish, but also more corals. Ouch. Hopefully I'll be able to get a bit for the tank. My reef store guy told me he can get in the same sort of green pagoda cup that I had before, and there's a really nice looking red and green lobo brain that I'll get if it is still there after my tank cycles.

GT - that's a reeeal bummer! glad to hear your staying with us though - we'd hate to lose you! Make sure you take a picture when you get the new corals...

Don't suppose the boyf's apologised?

Move was about. . . 2 miles tops? Not very far. And no. He hasn't apologised. He won't. He doesn't see any blame needed on him. I'll get pics when I can get new stuff. Thanks for the welcome back

Hm. Well, checked the params again yesterday and the tank had cycled. So I got another clown(no pics yet) to see how she does. If she does good in there for a few days I'll get a second so this one doesn't get too used to the tank before I can pair her.

just keep at it - have hope o' mother of kings

Obviously took a tiny bit of , but I found an awesome quote. Fortelling of her death on the last time seeing her son:

Onen i-Estel Edain, ú-chebin estel anim







ps. if for some odd reson this makes no sense (like the joining of gilraen and took!) please disregard.
