    Moving My 47 Year old Reef Tank. OMG

    No it isn't. All a reef tank needs is water. Many of the Reef Specialists are wrong, or just mistaken, mis understood, uncreative or constipated. And we all know that it's hard to be sexy when you are constipated. :confused: So I went to the bone guy and the nurse took the information and...

    Moving My 47 Year old Reef Tank. OMG

    They are "LightTimeTunnel" what ever that means. They were probably the cheapest so I bought them. I plugged them in, they lit, thats all I care about

    Moving My 47 Year old Reef Tank. OMG

    Tank is coming along. My good friend came over today and gave me a pair of blue striped pipefish (which my Janss pipefish will probably have for lunch) and a bunch of corals. All is doing well. He also tested my water because I don't have any Sissy test kits. Nitrates are zero, salinity is...

    Diana, I put this on here before but if you are interested, here is my radio broadcast. They invited me to speak about my tank in the first segment then they wanted me to speak about my time in Viet Nam in the second segment. It is next to the date 4/22/16 Project Independence Radio Show

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    What? That I have a library card! :rolleyes: I am running the diatom filter on my tank today because most of the algae died and I want to suck out the dead and dying pieces. I finished the barn wall with the top trim and the antique hardware. My wife loves it.

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    Yesterday we did another Geezer thing. We took the Jitney about 3 hours upstate to a Purple Heart Museum. It was very cool and I didn't know some of the things about purple hearts. The Govt. minted a million of the medals during WW2 because that is how many men they figured we would lose if...

    We Went to thew library here yesterday and they have a shelf for Long Island Authors. There were very few books there so I told the girl working there that I live on Long Island and I wrote a book. She got all excited and ran to get the head Librarian. They want my book there as I am sure...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    Yesterday we had to go to the old neighborhood to doctors. When you get ancient you go to doctors as much as I used to go to Disco's. (Google it) I need a knee replaced and I just had some finger operations. I wore out my fingers pointing at pretty girls, I mean pointing at interesting...

    Moving My 47 Year old Reef Tank. OMG

    Anyway, getting back to my tank move, the thing is moved and it is doing great. Most of the algae is gone with no help from me and there is nothing growing in my algae scrubber (because it is dying) Some day, if I get time I will drive on the beach and collect 30 gallons of water in case I...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    My tank is looking real sweet now that most of the algae is gone. I can suck it out in huge clumps and it clogs my sink. The corals are at full extension and all the fish are smiling. I am going to try to list the fish although I am not sure of their names. I think some may be Tom or Harry. 1...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    The hair algae in my tank (from my tank move and all new NSW) is coming off in big clumps so I can easily suck it out. If I had time (I am watching the Grand Kids) I would start my diatom filter and get it all sucked out before it dies and rots all over the place. But I don't see that...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    I can see my bluestripe pipefish frolicking around but I have yet to see my new "Gecko Gobies" I read that they live up side down in caves but they are really hiding and may be in a bottle. I know they didn't jump out so I know they are in there some place. Since I moved I have not hatched...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    Today I had to take my wife to a Neurologist in our old neighborhood so I went to my favorite LFS. I picked up 2 very cool gobies which I have never seen before. I will take pictures when they come out to the front. I also got a pair of bluestripes. The janss pipefish killed my old male...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    My tank had cleared up quite nicely and I can start adding some more corals. Most of the algae is gone and the rest is dying and I will suck it out. Today I also added a temporary light on the algae scrubber to see if it does anything. I also had a small flood. I have been having a lot of...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    I built an algae scrubber and installed it but I didn't light it yet so it is just pouring water over a screen hanging over the tank. No leaks yet. Well there were some, but I fixed them before I had to order a canoe. I am putting in my barn wood wall today with the barn doors in the center...
