Turtle's Deep Blue Sea

[SashimiTurtle]

Super busy couple of days in work
Friday afternoon in from work, quick scan of the tanks, talked to the cat, swig of vodka to fire the taste buds up, Guinness opened and set fire to something aromatic.
*Click*
So I left you lot alone for 2 frickin' days and all he did was finish the stand!
... oh and gave me 9 pages to catch up on! Thanks!
You discussed handles (nice ideas) lights and body art and drinking? Nice work all!

... and there was this!


ColoUrs, flavoUres!

Theres my favorite ornery englishman... lol. I'm at a standstill on the build right now until mid next week when the rest of my equipment and the rocks and sand get in. Once I get all that we can start building a scape and start cycling. Oh, I have something really special planned for the rock scape too.

How do you order rocks for the scaping? I have to look at them individually and handle them to see how they will fit together.

For my 14g nano, I went and hand picked 5lbs of established live rock. It's almost too much in that little tank. Hitchhikers and all. Had to kill some vermetid snails, but I got some nice feather dusters and some pods and bristleworms. With my plans for the scape, rocks are gong to end up getting drilled, chiseled and hammered. I wanted shelf and branch, but all sold out. Pukani will work just fine.

I have about 250lb of rock I used to pull about 60lb from in my tank, I will sell the rest or donate it to a project at a local high school

Welcome to the Deep Blue Sea @SciGuy2! I see you liked the post with the buffalo wings. I still haven't gotten any buffalo wings... might need to fix that tonight.

 

[sfin52]

Ya me neither b dubs didn't hand over any wings but a glass of pop. I'll call that a win.

What's pop? Glass of pop... did they break the glass and it made a pop sound? LOL

 

[sfin52]

Pop =soda for you non northern folk.

 

[SashimiTurtle]

Around here it's coke...
You wanna coke?
Yea!
What kind?
Pepsi please.

Move along...nothing to see here

You may get to 1000 posts without water like Revs thread. [emoji33]

Carry On....

I did training in Atlanta a few years back. I asked what type of pop they had. the waitress looked at me like i was from mars. Than I asked for a Mt. Dew and that was another can of worms. Apparently it's a sin to order Pepsi products in Atlanta. Lesson learned.

Who needs water when you can have Tank+rock (looks like coral) and heat = fossilized reef

Welcome to the Deep Blue Sea @Second Shot! I promise were going to fill it with water. How many posts that takes is out of my hands.

The home of Coke is Atlanta, I don't think you can buy a Pepsi product in the city if you order it Amazon Prime...

Not much work getting done over there , I sure could use a hand to get water in my tank.

I thought it was the rum... maybe that tequila shot. I've only started at the bar tonight. Way to early for all that. Glad it wasn't me.

Glad you said "we" could start scaping. You know we won't let you do it alone.

If only you knew what "we" had planned...
