AquaticEngineer Posted May 21, 2011 Author Share Posted May 21, 2011 Best price I found was at Bi-mart for the waders, but they didnt have any that would fit my height. Walmart had the ones I ended up buying but they were like $13 more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drunkreefer Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 I think the tank is almost cycled now so one more water test and all get all my stuff outa your tank Stew!

The LED lights are coming from California so hopefully we will have them before the 5th and we can bring back what ever algae we want to try in your tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drunkreefer Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 I wish there were more reds where we T/P at, that will be on my list of things to get for sure! Also most important are hydroids without slugs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AquaticEngineer Posted May 24, 2011 Author Share Posted May 24, 2011 I think we'll need to find out what eats those nudibranchs and get some of those in order to save your hydroids, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
