well having a bad couple of weeks im just about over my stupid fish tank. Today i was suppose to have the parts for my RODI system and guess what they wernt even shipped out! This is GREAT news as im pretty much out of water and will now have to go to the store to buy water. :frusty::frusty::frusty::frusty::frusty::frusty:
If i knew i wasnt going to be here by today as I was told i would of just went to my local pet store and picked up the parts!!!!!!!! Maybe it was misscommunication or whatever but it just added to my HORRIBLE day.
following that great ordeal i get (4) new t5 bulbs from another reefer. they came in and were packed WONDERFUL everything was good there. So i take my lights down and figure what the heck im going to make myself a canopy. Well like a very dumb person i measure the tank ok 48 1/2 by 24 1/4 whatever whatever. I'm sure you can figure out the rest from here yeah the canopy was toooooooo smalll hahahahahah AWESOME!!!!! :fish: so now i have half the canopy on the tank and the other side resting on the trim. so yeah its crooked yay! Well at this moment i dont care thats how its staying!!!!!:der:
I should of just put the $1000 on my credit card and went with the AI Vegas or Hydras and just got it over with. still dont know which one of those 2 models are better?!?
But after this madness my tank colors look great! but im still ****** and have spent a ton of money this week in supplies but thats how this hobby goes. what are you gonna do just move on!
Cant wait till tomorrow when i get my new corals in from Ajk'sreef!!!

Today i saw the craizest thing i saw this big black think floating around in my tank and noticed it was a dead fly. I went to get the turkey baster to suck him out and my wrasse just pounded him. I was waiting for him to spit it out but he ate the whole thing it was insane

So my zoas came in last night and they are looking amazing thanks Ajk'sreef!!! Just waiting on the last frag to open up hasn't opened all day will see what happens.
So i also got my parts for my RODI system and man 75GPD i always had the membrane for 75gpd but let me tell you since it was never hooked up properly its never truly made 75gpd. Now this baby flys. I made a TON of water last night got the salt mixing up in there with a pump and a heater running. Tonight im gonna do a 50 gal water change the tank really needs it!
Ill try to get some shots of the corals later.

Well I made the move today just placed my order for some Reef Breeders Photon lights!!!!
I was in NYC when of course my second set of T5's took a **** on me. after i just put them in a few days ago. So i placed the order!! After looking at the reviews for some of their other Photon units i think i made a good choice for the little cash i had. cant wait to get these bad boys on the tank!

Just got the Photon 48 in. ITS AMAZING
I took a couple pics but need to edit them but gotta run to vball.
The only thing i need to work on is getting a good light schedule. Right now i think im at 35% b 40% w but not sure if thats oky or too strong.
but either waythese lights ARE AMAZING!!
