JBJ 20 gallon AIO reef tank

Spoke with a manager he said he would give me 20% off there selling each of those corals for 25$ each .1.

So, 22 dollars each?

 

[shadow_k]

Yes it would be 224$ for all those soft corals I told him that they are slowly gonna die and I’m willing to take them of there hand for 50$ nothing crazy expensive Kenya, zoa paly toadstool

 

[Goaway]

That sucks. They are going to die

 

[shadow_k]

Agreed I’m gonna try and go in person and see what I can do

Going back to the fish store saturday. Maybe I can get lucky and find a couple of gems. If not, guess I order.

Okay do I dump the whole slurry in ? Even the kalk that settles at the bottom I forgot to ask yesterday I dumped everything in

 

[fishguy242]

try to mix ,let settle mix again before adding
don't really want to dump mush in .

 

[fishguy242]

you can do half and half ,just use tank water ,wont be as thick.
