She told me nope the 75 was going to be your salt water and you need to have fish in it by Christmas.

Cute and Smart! you lucky dog I also have tangs in a 75 and it's my excuse to get a larger tank. I hope to see this turn into a UPGRADE in the future............ BTW tough break for the Bears yesterday

Welcome @siggy. Maybe after the kitchen remodel. I don't think our kitchen has been remodeled since the 80s.

Our offense was lacking only to score 15 pts and our d gave us the ball on the 45 more than a couple of times is a horrendous

2016 and 2017 lost all of my clowns. Turns out our she devil cat Nemo loves plucking ocellaris clownfish out of the tank. She left wet kitty paw prints on the front glass. Nemo did that to four of them before I figured it out.

with face like that how can you be upset.

I also lost the hippo tang because of the sailfin and foxface.

The tank was covered in hair algea. That's when I learned about ro units.
Joined Reef2reef in June 2016. A friend from church told me to join. Learned a lot

Tank 2016.

Late 2016 and 2017 ended up with hair algea ran heavy gfo and nitrate reducers . This lead to dinoflagellates. I nevern id the species but they reeked havoc on my tank. Lost almost all my snails. Wipped out my Duncans, lost all pods and my skunk shrimp. Because I thought I was dealing with algea I continued to run heavy gfo and nitrate reducers. I bottomed out phosphates and pow, dino all over. Special shout out to @mcarroll for helping me and saving my. If you are battling dino go here

Stopped talking pictures because the tank looked so bad.

She looks innocent. I think the paw prints were defensive...

We want pics of the good, the bad, and the ugly!

 

[sfin52]

I'll have to see if I've got any really bad pics. They may be gone with the old phone. It got really bleak for a while.
