Myka's 90 gallon build & 3 province move (Pics Feb 6)

[Leah]

Myka the tank looks great, glad to hear the little C is doing well after its rather rough trip
in the sand bucket. Opp's at least he made it. Can't wait to see the new fish photo's.
Have you managed to sell the extra rock yet? Looking forward to photo's with sand too!
Have you found the emeralds yet?

[Myka]

Yu guys are probably sick of photos (ya right!), but I'm trying to learn how to take better photos thatnks to a thread on here where people have been helping me. So everyday I get better photos and want to share them!

No Leah, I haven't worked on the rockscape at all. This is Friday's project...FOR SURE this time!! I tried looking for the Emeralds again, and couldn't find them. Now there is a cycle going in that bucket from the rock being transferred, and the ammonia it quite high. I doubt they could survive, but I haven't found their shells. I will look again for them now that you have reminded me.

Here's a pic of the Cyphastrea 'Meteor Shower' frag from Wicked Frags just for you:




I finally got a pic of the Blue Assessor which has acclimatized well, she (I'm hoping) is happily making the rounds around the tank now that the Kole is TOTALLY engrossed with killing himself in the mirror. Sorry the photo is poor.




Here's a pic of how the Kole is looking now...the chameleon:




A pic of my Fox Coral from Pet City that had an accidental fragging last year. It actually has neon green mouths, but I can't get that to show up in my photos:




You can see this Open Brain (Pet City) has mostly recovered from the slow bleaching it was doing last fall:




Lovely Acan frag from Red Coral. Fast grower too:




Finally got a decent shot of the Squamosa (from Red Coral) that shows the color well:



A macro of the Favia (from Pet City):




A better shot of the odd leather (from Bayside Corals). Anyone know what it is?

Oh good.

The Jawfish went to fishie heaven. He was pretty skinny on arrival.

I haven't seen the Blue Assessor eat yet, but she hides lots, so she could be nabbing some of the Mysis when she's hiding.

[Myka]

So yesterday I didn't see the Blue Assessor at all. Albeit I work 2-10 pm, but the Assessor usually hangs out in the front at times (she avoids the Tang though). So I was panicking!! I also hadn't seen the Assessor eat, but I was blowing frozen mysis in the rocks hoping wherever she was she was getting some food. Well, this morning I saw her cruising around, and noticed her belly isn't skinny, so she must be eating then. So I figured I should get some food ready so I can feed when she's out front and watch. I got it ready, and she was still out front (and is now too), so I blew some mysis at her...aaaaaaand SHE EATS!!! She's definitely not an aggressive eater, she only ate 2-3 pieces, but WHEW!! That's a relief!

The Kole Tang is still really interested in her, but I haven't seen him peck at her this morning at all. I took his mirror down lastnight.

Oh, and I'm working today, so I can't do the rocks as planned...AGAIN. Tomorrow I'm going quadding with my lovely boyfriend, so that's out. So Sunday it is! He said he'd help me too, so that's awesome. Gotta get 'er done!!! Starting a new job on Monday too.
