Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Meetings are such a complete whirlwind. Another great day that went just way too fast. I was going to cut a coral, take some macro shots, hand out some corals from Wendy, watch a presentation on Kati-Ani, do a little speaking and ... and ... and ...
Unfortunately, I didn't have enough time to...
I have your frags from Wendy! I didn't realize that you guys didn't grab your frags from the box before you left. I should have reached out to you. There here, let me know where you are and I'll figure out how to get them your way.
Evik, when I went to find you, you were gone! Sorry we didn't...
They will coexist, and grow around each other. I don't know that they will "merge" necessarily (were they from the same exact species, etc), but they will grow around each other. Same if you put digi into the mix. The monti species will all intergrow.
Re: Here's my 120
Should have been PIC OF THE MONTH material! PIC on the HOME PAGE material! D'oh. I hope you have a better one that you're planning on submitting to have spent such a great image in such a fashion! *sigh*
HAPPY BIRTHDAY RichT & MikeNapoli! I see you guys share a birthday. Make it a good one and be sure to stop by AO for the birthday discount!
Wonders almost silently if AO would honor the Birthday Discount on the weekend for such a distant supporter)!
I've moved mine. BUT I keep a shallow (you've seen it) sand bed, with lots of blowing around.
* Moved 30 to 65, including sand
* Moved 120 to 180, including sand
Both tanks were "young" when the sand got moved. The 30 was less than a year old and the 120 was less than 4 years old. I believe...
32$/5#... not too bad, all things considered with this hobby.
KatiAni has a product that's been in use over seas for quite a while that removes PO4/Trate from the running system. Bruce will be speaking a bit about KatiAni at the meeting this weekend. Hopefully he'll shed some light on that as well.
I'd start with water changes. 20% every few days until the trates are down. That should help. I find that I'm more likely to get HA when I don't have enough clean up crew in the tank.
You'll survive it just fine, I'm sure. I still forget I'm ... ??? Oh shoot, I forgot.
Sierra looked at me the other day and said "Oh I forgot you were old, I thought you were still 39"! Oh thanks, hon!
Anyway, don't sweat it and enjoy the big weekend!
