Before
I begin, I would like to thank the
many THOUSANDS of you who have visited
this site since it went live last October.
I'd also like to thank the many
hundreds of you who wrote back to say
hi, ask questions, or offer ID's
on some of my specimens (I have included
some of those ID's in this update,
by the way). It has truly been a pleasure
hearing from you (from as far away
as Israel, Columbia, and Denmark) and
I look forward to hearing from more
of you in the future. I do try to answer
most of the emails and have done fairly
well so far. But if I haven't
gotten to yours yet, please have patience.
As my wife will attest, I'm nowhere
near as swift as I used to be. Eventually,
I get there though. Now, to the updates: |
State
of the Tank Message |
|
Everything's
been really stable since last October
in regards to my water parameters and
wow, don't the corals know it!
Growth-wise, they have really just
exploded during the last couple months.
So much so that things are beginning
to look a tad (and that's a sarcastic
tad) overgrown. So while there may
not be too much of a difference between
this update and the initial report,
I think there'll be some MAJOR
changes next time. |
Now
because this is my first update, the
question of how to best format it had
to be addressed. What I've decided
to do is to simply follow the format
of the website via it's headings
and just link you up to the new stuff
from here. If this doesn't make
sense, it will... Watch. |

Refugium Go!
The refugium has had a tough time of it for the last couple months. This
is because it's been pressed into emergency service as everything
from a quarantine tank to a frag holding tank. First, my LFS calls and
says they're holding these Ventralis Anthias a
male and two female Ventralis Anthias. They are probably my favorite
kind of Anthias and are notoriously difficult to get established. This
trio was reportedly eating. So to make sure they had a chance of
competing in my main tank, I decided to put them in my refugium for "a
few days". (cont.) |
