Hows dragonsoul?

Looks ok. Skin is still tighter than I'd like to see it but it's color is good and flesh hasn't receded or anything.

I'm going to broadcast some food this afternoon and might give it a little directly. My Reverse Prism was in a similar situation after the 75 but now it's fat and fluffy and lots of feeding response.

That's what's important. It will take some time for it to settle.

I forgot to mention that UPS manhandled my last RipTide order as well. Came on time, but it seemed like they must’ve been tossing it around without a care. Several frags were loose from their cups and my big chunky bower was damaged but is still alive. Seems to be healing slowly. I’ve been making sure it gets some meaty foods to help in recovery. This is right after delivery.

I saw a thread early, a guy impulse bought one and let it loose in his sps system. Now he has to get it out.

I don't need no SPS munchers. That's why I don't have a Black Sailfin Blenny.

Those things are so hard to catch once they're loose.

Yup. No thankies. It would starve in my system.

Wow... 10 years ago I bought a used refractometer. I have never calibrated it in all this time...


DO NOT FOLLOW MY EXAMPLE!!!!!



I just checked the calibration on my refractometer today after 10 years of use. It says on the calibration fluid bottle to adjust to 35 ppt. The reading without any adjustments was 34.9 ppt...

 

[Goaway]

34.5 is not bad at all
Now if it was 30 or 40....

I found some super old calibration fluid and compared it to the fluid I usually use and it was way off. So I think the calibration fluid has an expiry. Were you using 10 year old fluid?

Black Sailfin is known to nip at SPS. I've recently started keeping SPS but I still almost bought one twice now.
