Hi Greg, nice meeting at Rich's couple weekends ago celebrating his and families' birthdays. Love the rockscape!

Thanks for liking my 'scape Wayne
I may remove the top of the middle island down the road to make room for corals
I really like Rich's low rocks with all the big corals ballooning around

It was great meeting and talking with you too
I hope you guys had a good time at the swap in Vic

Hope the investment is treating you well

DT is going very well - nothing to report there

QT is definately infected with MI
It has come and gone every 2 or 3 days ever since Sept 1st
The Royal Gramma has always been hit by it, but now, for the first time, the Purple Firefish has a spot

I've been, since Thursday, looking for an SL1 so I can more easily monitor the pH while running hypo
I have a plan now and will be picking up a probe Monday

I'll be going for a total of 10 weeks before these critters go into the DT
2-3 days of dropping the Sg, 2-3 days while the spots go away, 4 weeks of hypo, 7 days to raise the Sg, and 4 more weeks of monitoring to see if it comes back

Yeehaw

At least they are in the QT
And I'll be able to put the LR back in the QT after all this as it'll sit fallow in a bucket in the meantime

Greg, nice to see your persistance in the QT of fishes, you are one of few that do this that actually follow through till the end!

How is the growth of corals coming along?

[gregzz4]

I can imagine how peed I'd be if I'd just tossed them in the DT

There is growth happening here and there, but nothing camera worthy yet
I'll definately get some pics up once they're worth seeing

Haven't started the QT hypo yet, but I got the SL1 and a new pH probe running
I was @ J&L today and put a hold on a Kole tang that just arrived yesterday, so I won't start hypo now until Sunday or Monday as I'll pick up the Yellow eye on Saturday
Couldn't have been better timing

The chaeto tank is finally back up and running, although I have nothing to put in it right now
I picked up a pair of 5pc diamond cutting wheel sets for a dremel from Princess Auto
I thought I'd go through a bunch of el cheapo units but, surprise, one disc got the whole job done
It's not the prettiest as I did it freehand, but I'm super happy that I didn't have to remove the baffle
No more leaking over-the-glass/under the trim
That 'mark' below the right angled cut is just a scratch from slipping with the wheel

I was even able to arris all the edges with the wheel

Nice job Greg should keep the creep down now too
