The Miracle Tank

[Katrina71]

Today I hope to get the window repair done. Trying to do it carefully without replacing the sheet rock. I think we can. Maybe even start on the window trim. 4 days off...I will start trimming out the stand come hell or high water!

 

[Katrina71]

Oh, school closed again for flooding. An extra set of hands will be nice. Andrew is way more handy than you'd expect. I think I'll let him miter the simple (less expensive) trim pieces on the stand too.

 

[Katrina71]

The demo part is done. Thanks Andrew!

I bet a dollar he is still sleeping.

Yes. It's ok. Mom promised pizza. #tradeout

 

[Katrina71]

He's so excited about the stand build! I know we cheated on the main construction, but we get the really fun part!

 

[NY_Caveman]

I want some! How is your pizza in TN? Thick / thin? Garlicky / sweet?

 

[Katrina71]

He didn't pick out the hardware. He just says "mom, you're a freak". Just wait until you see his Studio 54 sump lighting! The build is a 50/50 mix of us.

Either or

@Eagle_Steve sorry about all the fish. That is a gorgeous shark.

@Katrina71 didn't cheat you got a quality stand that you know is perfect. You won't worry about. Besides the devil is in the details

 

[Katrina71]

Yes! Thanks to @siggy! It was a hard pill not to do it myself, but now I have zero concern!

Peace of mind is always good.

 

[Katrina71]

I have enough stress. No more.

Right you are

Btw, @siggy may have a velvet outbreak. Let's keep him in our thoughts. I know it's heartbreaking.

 

[Katrina71]

@RichtheReefer21 has an outbreak too. He's not in a good place. He might be tearing down the tank. I really hope not.

 

[Katrina71]

It's funny, when one of us struggles, we all feel it almost as if it were our own tank.

@RichtheReefer21 has an outbreak too. He's not in a good place. He might be tearing down the tank. I really hope not.

If it is to the point of tearing down the tank, I would suggest @RichtheReefer21 try H2O2 for treatment. It works great in QT, but I have used it to treat a clown with velvet in a tank with corals. I put a ton of frags in the 20l QT and all frags and fish lived. Frags were not happy, but lived.

 

[Katrina71]

Hope. We all need hope.

Will be praying they can combat the issue. Also hate to hear about the fish getting cold. Poor things. Loving the progress in this.
