Ok you guys, the trachy...sandbed, low flow? Should be happy in the same conditions as my plates or acans?
That is where the Lobo is. Used to target feed, but not in a long time or during the recovery either.

I guess my mom really abused us. She'd tolerate going in and out for a bit, then she'd just lock us out. Drink out of the hose she said!
Nothing better than good ol' southern hose water. Gotta love that hint of vinyl! You think if I started a line of "Dixie Hose Water" that people would buy it? I bet I could support my reefing hobby with it.

Funny story for your Monday morning...

Last night before my last nightshift, I had some water going in the garage for the ATO. The brute was full, and I had just mixed up some salt close to where I thought it should be. Told the wife when the tote was full to just shut the water off and leave it there. Well, she misunderstood and added about half a tote to the brute, which was pretty full already. She told me it was still about 6" from the top and around 1.024 with the refractometer.

I knew I married her for a reason...

Opinion please...when they recover, they look better than before? All of my survivors do.
The Acans and the Lobo are vastly different. The Lobo had amazing colors before, but glows much more now. The Acans are all darker, but more vivid. I should do a post on the difference.

here is the Lobo before in its glory

Obviously less full now. I am half thinking of starting to spot feed it just to see what happens. It has kind of plateaued in this current state.
