All Activity

The coral show at the airport on Sunday I think he mean. I’d be interested in coordinating if you are

Awesome! I’ll grab it this weekend

I'm currently growing these out at the bottom of the tank, they're too dense to split now. I will text you as soon as I find some I can split off.

The ducks was so happy and grew so dense I have 30+ heads I can't split 😅 They have loved crazy high light and flow, super hardy.

Show is this Sunday !! We will have 2 raffles at 12:30 and 2pm!! All proceeds go to Tanks for Teachers !! Hope to see you there !! http://www.coralfarmersmarket.com/cfmprotour_portland_2024.htm

Show is this Sunday!! Who’s excited ?!!! We will have awesome raffle prizes and all proceeds go to Tanks for Teachers !! Last year we had a better turn out than the Seattle group ! Let’s represent!!

Is that the pack of torches you got from me? They look amazing in your tank

I’ll take a 1-2 head knicks and 2 headed Oregon ducks if you have it. 503-801-1776

These are lovely frag racks

Ok I’ll try the USB. I’ll pick it up tomorrow bummer deal about the handheld

That’s too bad but glad you will make the May meeting .

Still awaiting results on the 4/18 test but hoping so! I had a problem with my Trident and had to start testing on my Hanna testers for a week while I got it straightened out so there may have been some blips in my normal parameters. I don't automatically dose based on the Trident, but I do use it to maintain level numbers so I could be 5 or 10% off my usual levels. In general I follow the school of thought that consistency is better than swings to hit perfection. I did do some suggested trace element work using the Reef Moonshiners spreadsheet (specifically K) so we will see if any of those numbers moved into better lanes as I understand several elements are tied together. I really am just looking for two tests in a row with similar numbers so I can set a new baseline, then I can start trying to make adjustments to optimize parameters - biome will be the step after that.

Don't think I can make it, but see you in May!

Show just 3 days away !! Click here for details and to buy tickets 1/2 price in advance !!! http://www.coralfarmersmarket.com/cfmprotour_portland_2024.htm

Are your ICP results looking better now?

Hopefully when you get the results back everyone can benefit from your findings - specifically how lower livestock impacts the stability of the biome. Very cool idea! I will be doing one in May now that my tank has mostly stabilized but I have so many variables: fish population swings, a live sand addition, tank dieoff and regrowth, UV and Ozone. My hope is to get a baseline and find some guidance on how to steer things and then do some monthly or every other month tests to see how the numbers move.

Yes it's still missing. Only the usb is available until the handheld is replaced.

I’ve seen the aquabiome results around r2r but hearing more about how to interpret them was very interesting. I ordered 2 tests because I’m curious to see the results for my QT and DT. My QT was getting good coral growth and color. My DT doesn’t have as great of growth and color. There’s a few differences but I dose ammonia on the QT since it’s fishless. I may have to start dosing ammonia to promote better bacteria. Both tanks were started with ocean rock (DT= kp aquatics, QT= TBS) thanks for the link @Krux and @Lexinverts for discussion.

Ok I’m up. I really want the handheld one. Is it still MIA? I’ve paid the deposit

If you are going to the meeting and can't find anyone to take them I can take them off your hand, unfortunately I dont have enough time this trip to pick them up. (I live in Washington 😞)

done

Go ahead and refund ill come back around to it soon

usb is at the shop i believe if your ready to pick up @CuttleFishandCoral

do you want me to refund the deposit? or keep it until you're ready?

Nah these are going to be pickup only, sorry!
