I thought Bears went wherever they wanted... doesn't need to be a forest or the woods...

Bear downs 36 beers, passes out at campground

When state Fish and Wildlife agents in found a black bear passed out on the lawn of Baker Lake Resort in Washington state, there were some clues scattered nearby — dozens of empty cans of beer.

Coming along nicely...

Thank you!! So excited to see it together!

 

[Mhamilton0911]

Mind if I join the party?

Things just started but it looks good! How long till you think your Zoas start growing and taking over?..( In a good way)

Also as a guy who likes to put corals on his sand bed take into account the space between the rocks and the glass, see if you can squeeze in as many or you need to cut back a little. I’m sure you’ll do this thiugh just a friendly reminder lol. What’s lighting up the Frag tank?

Those zoas started as a 3 polyp frag. So many now. I would love to see the rest of my zoas act like that ones!

I tried to leave a ton of room between the glass, I messed that up in my last tank. I guess about 4" at the smallest in the back and about 6" on the front. Big sandy area on the right.

Frag tank will just be a small one, the IM 15 cube, and I've got a noopsyche mini for it!!

Looking awesome excited to see the frag tank up and going.....hope all is well. That 75 is giving me the itchas i sit here looking at the 4 empty tanks in my garage and the glass for the custom 90g build sitting in my guest room lol maybe i put together a few tanks....maybe my wife wont kill me....maybe i get the basement finally put together for my fish room....so many maybes and the only one standing out is my wife killing me...lol

Do it. Do it. Do it.

It'll only hurt for a minute

@Mhamilton0911 , since @N1tew0lf1212 has so gallantly brought us back to your build, it is looking great! I think a frag tank is an awesome idea! Are you going to plumb it in to the main system?

Nope. Stand alone. Thinking about AWC but it's scary.

 

[Mhamilton0911]

Frag tank out for delivery!

Here's to it arriving in one peice!

 

[Mhamilton0911]

I have this other zoa colony. The true color never comes through on pictures, but green centers with teal lashes. But look how neat it looks in the flow. It's grown quite a bit so it's on its own rock for easy containment.


Hopefully video works

IDK where exactly it is, and I likely won't be able to figure it out until the move into the new house happens.... But I have an AWC in storage I have no plans to use if you're still contemplating one once that timeframe rolls around

 

[Mhamilton0911]

Found an elegance.

That's super awesome! Let me know when and how much!

 

[Mhamilton0911]

Found my phone filter.

New elegance, still not all the way out but getting there.

Clownfish jumped. I think I got to her in time. My son found her and exclaimed "oh no!" Picked her up and she flopped so I tossed her back in. I had glass lids on too. I see her salt floppy trail on top. She's looking ok, definitely wobbles more than normal. Hopefully she recovers and doesn't decline. Missing scales in a few spots. It figures that my first jumper would be my first first I bought. And really sweet well behaved clowns.

Bigger one on the bottom.

 

[Mhamilton0911]

Good(ish) coral pics, bad clown pics?

 

[fishguy242]

She should shed that mucus layer in no time , looks good , breathing normal ?

 

[Mhamilton0911]

Let see if this works

I think so, I tried adding a video above.
It's normal for them to hang out in the corner.

Just keep an eye on her. She should be fine. It's similar if we got rug burn.

her breathing looks fine.

 

[Mhamilton0911]

I'll be putting the back strips on for now and look for a good net top.

The only reason I had tops on at all is my 3yo wants to keep "helping" with the tank.
