KTHOM

Everything is balanced back out. It was brand new out of box. Added some live rock and sand with ammonia from Seahorse. Done with brown and green alagea cycles. Getting ready to head out to some local shops but wondering if a change should be done first?

The nano has been cycling for about a month now. Water balancing out. No fish for the cycle just live rock and sand. When do you start water changes again?

We had a seahare in the big tank. Would those starve off as well? We use to feed ours sheets of seaweed I think it was.

There are so many cucumbers. We had a sand sifter that was yellow at one point. We have seen the pink ones in shops that looked like filter feeders. Any reccomendations for the 28 gallon tank.

So we are kinda thinking about snails, the kids loved the electric blue hermits? , maybe cleaner shrimp , we want a cucumber but not sure what type just yet, and crabs, We were thinking of sally or emeralds. Is it typical the emerald harm clams? there is a work missing in dee77 post but I assume it wasn't a good thing.

Would the Astrius be a good starting snail?

ReeFit those are closer to what we were thinking. Is there a place that sells them. We got ours probably a year ago at Seahorse, maybe longer. I like your sig. Reminds me of my DW when she named the bird business that's just about how she ran it by me. Her "feathered obsessions"

Would Mandarin do well in a 28 gallon Nano with a pair of clowns?

they looked like this kinda....

Thank you. This is one of those moments when I wish I had or could find one of her old ones. They were small and not the hairy type. Super bright green. She might like the hairy ones but I know. Do you have pictures?

If you were to be just starting your 28 gallon Nano fresh out of cycling which inverts would be your first must haves and why??? Thank you.

Our tank is just coming out of cycle and doing great. We would like to find the mushrooms we had in our large tank a few months ago. Impossible to find the originals I'd guess but would love some just like them. They were a extremely bright almost flourescent green , somewhat translucent. DW loved them and I kinda did too. Would love to see if someone else knows of some coming up for sale or a place I can start. Don't have coral to trade anymore but many birds from quail to chicken to parakeets even eggs if you are interested but am willing to pay cash too.

We recently sold our 125 gallon tank and got into a smaller nano tank. It took some time and is about through with a good cycling so we're thinking about fish. We have always had huge tanks so the 28 gallon is kinda a shock ofr us. We wont be having any of the types of fish we did have. We are wondering about bioload for this tank as well as tempermants in the smaller tanks. It looks like we will try to get another pair of black clowns. DW would like to have clown gobies. We were told about panada gobies being well suited for the nano tanks though we aren't sure we even know for sure what they are. Any suggestions for the nano tank would be greatly helpful! It's a reef setup and will have clams as well as various corals... if we can find some we liked as well as our old stuff (sad)

Thank you everyone. We got it all moved this weekend. We hope that it got moved in nicely for it's new owner. When she gets a new smaller tank hopefully we'll find some new corals that she'll like just as much.

We have an offer were are more then willing to accept just for the tank and equipment but have done other stuff on the internet and just as you said not all who ask show up. We don't want to agree to split it up, sell all the insides, and then have the buyer back out of the tank sale and be left with a tank skeleton.

We pulled the Craigslist ad cause no one believed we were serious I guess. That is really what we want to do. If we don't and can't keep it up everything will die anyways. Not to long ago I messed up the tank chemistry by "helping" when I shouldn't have. With my lay off it's been hard to keep up with everything and she can't afford to replace the stock I killed. This was a serious conversation with us and this is what we came up with. Selling it might be a little more money but we'd have to start from scratch too. Parting it out involves so much time and so many transactions. There is a lot to this tank so it would be hard to arrange we're thinking.

We have an offer for the tank without the stock. But she is affraid that if she sells the stock the tank offer might back out and she'll have an empty tank. She is hoping some one who has a 25-30 gallon nano up and cycled but wants bigger might trade. It's not an issue of the cost this tank vs. nano it's just become a needed step for our family. We know a nano probably sells for less than this whole set up would but it would make our lifes easier and maybe help someone else out? Huge "hope" but we'll see.....

If there is anything else about it you'd like to know please feel free to ask. Hopefully I've got it updates with all the info that was messaged about.

We have to sell our 120 gallon due to lay offs. She's had it for 5 years and loves it but just can't keep up with it with the layoff. Thank you economy. She would prefer to barter for a nano set up. Not to up on the economy prices so willing to listen to offers. Gen-X pcx 40 pump. Platnium series Utility pump on the skimmer with and in water pump to supply it's water. The extra pump comes with this too. The sump is by All glass Aquarium Mega flow Model 4 and is acrylic There are three powerheads in the tank It has two back overflows The hood has two 400w halides , 2 actinic blue flourescents and 2 white actinic bulbs. I think all four flourescents in the hood are 48 in The sump has a small 8 inch hood with two bulbs as well It has a number of timers and cords scrapers, cleaners as well Please ask for specifics you'd like to know cause I'm not sure what to list. I know she has a yellow tang, six line, goby, clowns, montis, mushrooms, polyps, leathers, huge tongue coral, crabs, snails, and a bunch of stuff in it.

DOH! I didn't go far enough down. Pictures we can do.

We've decided to sell our tank due to my layoff. (sad) DW is so depressed about it but we can't do anything else. She either wants to sell it all or barter for a nano tank. Is there a good place to list the tank other than craigslist?

Working on it. Learned a bit from this site already. Someone told me that the Superman is a Monti and superman is a color. Rainbow too. The favorite is really a Favia. That will help me find them at least.

I was thinking gift certificate. A friend gave us one for Christmas but the store didn't have stuff in stock she was looking for so i was hoping to find a store that might have them in the coming weeks.

That's them I think. The rainbow one looked more like the shape of the superman in the picture but if it's only colors then those are them. There were small frags of them. Frag, I think that's the only term I know. The big orange and white one is probably 12in by 12in. These were supose to grow to look like it.
