I had the day off with Beth and before we headed to Spirit Mountain Casino to play poker(clap) We went to the Pioneer school to add a few things and go over with Becky how to care for the tank

 

I would like to thank the following people for the donations from last week and this week including:

Mr. S corals

Lowman helping out driving us around

MattV torch, candy cane

Idiosyncraticeee gave us a good deal nice zoa rock

Tanktop74 cleaning the tank, donated a better mag float, helped with the water change

Mark Birkett refractometer at good price and delivering it to Westside

Ed's reef supplying the pencil urchin

TECO recent sps auction brought in 80 dollars!

You all (rock2)(rock2)

 

 

These pictures are from a few weeks ago when I went with Mr. S and Lowman which was a blast!. I just never got a chance to post them! I also brought the refractometer I got from Mark Birkett at a good price for the school!

 

Everything was looking good in the tank but the glass was covered with algae, and there was a lot of cyano in the tank. The cinnamon clowns are getting big!

I brought my camera but the battery was deadDOH! so Beth's Iphone worked in a pinch!These are today's picture. As you can see the tank is covered in algae. We found out part of the problem. The fish are getting fed only 3 times a week but instead of a pinch of food they were getting one half a tablespoon of food. We showed Becky the right amount.(laugh) She's been reading and learning and I told her to post on the forum with any questions.

And after using the mag float with a razor blade!(clap)We told Becky to steer clear of the seals on the corners..(scary) and don't get too close to the bottom. I guess the kids were not happy with the algae on the glass

We added this Lobo which looks great under the T5's and the torch, candy canes, and zoa rock

Thanks again sponsors and members! (clap)(clap)This tank would not have happened without all of your support! The kids really love it but they were disgusted that we were putting our hands in water where fish poop!(laugh)
