I’m still losing (mainly) torches. Trying a round of Amox starting earlier today. As far as the job goes, it’s a much better situation, although for the first time in 17 yrs I’ll be back to working overnight shift(11:15p-7:15a). Working overnights does give a $4 per hour differential . I should’ve left the place where I worked at a while ago.

So glad about the job.

You will figure out the issue on the tank!

I’ve been waiting to post silly meme - it’s still the 3rd in California! I love saying “May the 4th be with you”, all day to my family who think I’m a total nerd and freak! As I tell my 35 yr old daughter all the time, “Yes, I proudly raise my freak flag high”!! And then quote something from Star Trek or Battlestar Gallactica. Muhahahaha.

 

[steveschuerger]

Here’s new pics. Like I mentioned torches were decimated. Most everything else is looking fairly good.

Hey @steveschuerger
What’s the Blues Clues frog/hammer from SBB look like in your tank?

Here’s a pic I took this morning

Also what’s your opinion on the site photo vs real life?

Hah. Should’ve seen the thing before I gave it a scraping down.

 

[steveschuerger]

In my tank, to naked eye even when happiest and puffy it certainly has tinges of blue and a greenish base/mouth. Still pretty but not quite the same. I still like it, but it’s not quite the same.

Opinion on mounting my blastos like this.

I like it. Plenty of room for growth too.

Windex means more blue light

@tbrown

Like Frank said, more room or they'll start encroaching on each other quickly. My Merlettis grow pretty quick.

Windex means more blue light

They’re already at 70 for the blues.

In the picture though. She wants more blue color in the picture. Without a filter maybe?

This would work. @steveschuerger your pictures make it seem you do not run blue or almost like you took them under whites only

 

[Reefing_addiction]

But you also told me it doesn’t look like there photo so I’m happy with that

 

[VintageReefer]

They’re already at 70 for the blues.

But what are the whites at?

70% blue, Royal blue, and Violet on RB should be plenty. But to get the pic he’s looking for, whites should be around 5% with a orange lens filter

Photo mode - orange filter. Dark ambient / room lighting.
Photon settings:
Ch - 1 and 2 off
Ch 3 - 70
Ch 4 - 5
Ch 5 - 70
Ch 6 - 70

Hmmm…maybe should run my photon without channel 1 and 2 on. Whites are at 3.

Sorry they made a whole thing about your lights lol

I run only blue royal blue violet and UV on my tank. I cut the moon lighting off when I had Dino’s real bad (I believe I almost whooped em *knock on wood*)

I like my windex
