Oh gawsh, I can't wait!! And most definitely, I am so glad that we waited... what a miserable mistake it would have been if we just jumped the gun and assumed it would disappear with water in the tank... I'd be SOL, that's for sure! Haha. Eeek. Yeah he did get lots more done. Can't wait until...

Current pic of the 90. Had to put the clowns in the nursery because they wouldn't leave the hippo alone. Good thing this tank is going up soon. :) Everyone is more than ready for more room to swim.

The tank now. :)

Denzil hard at work polishing the front of the tank! We lifted it up and realized that there were some spots that needed more TLC.

So, it was really gratifying to see Felicia's tank before Denzil polished it, and then after! Gave me lots of hope, LOL. Felicia did say that she filled her tank up with water, and she was able to see it clearly with water in the tank, so I am glad that we did decide to do this rather than put...

I don't think a 2.5 year old will enjoy the ins and outs of the tour, so I think I will have to bow out. I told my sister I would watch my neice thinking that the EBTT was that weekend (Denzil's fault!! ;P lol, he told me they were swapped) and that the Kessil tour was this past weekend. Since...

Plenty of cerium oxide left over :) are you going on the Kessil tour? That's what we planned on doing on Saturday, but if that doesn't take all day, maybe afterwards? I need to check with my sis though, because I may be watching my neice, and if I am, then we will probably pass on the tour...

Denzil actually owns the rotary. He said that he'd polish it for you :) LoL!! Polish for frags??? He owns it because he's also a professional autodetailer, so he's got all that fun stuff :) but hey, let's get together and do it! :D It be fun! John, yes, all that is on the inside of the...

Kind of hard to tell because of all the reflections, but that's ok, because reflections are awesome!! Definitely tons better. Hopefully the picture shows it, hehe. :D

Denzil working on the tank as I type. Looks soo much better. Hopefully you'll be able to see it in the next picture.

This is what the tank looked like before... ALL over the tank. Hopefully it shows up, first time posting a pic in the new forum.. haha

Definitely. I was glad he had some insight as to why vinegar, baking soda, polishing compounds, two different muriatic solutions, CLR and Limeaway wasn't working... LOL apparently, he used to work with glass, so he knew what it sounded like, and what to suggest. Thank god it's working. If it...

Thanks Johnny!! Denzil's working on polishing the tank today with Cerium Oxide. We talked to Matt F. down at Aqua Exotic and told him all we used to get this stuff out, and how it didn't work. Turns out, he thought that the glass was etched from the hardwater sitting on it for so long down in...

No problem! Hope it helps, and I wish you success if you get a melanurus. :)

I guess I should have connected the dots a bit better after you posted... Erp derp, sorry = / he does have pygmy possums though! LoL, well, he did when we were there last week...

Matt Fearenough also said that Pygmy possums were excellent at keeping FWs under control, if you are concerned about the Melanurus size and potential buttheadedness, haha. I have no personal experience with the pygmys and FWs myself, but Matt said that anytime he had an issue of FWs, he threw in...

Ask Aqua Exotic to order one for you... they are really good about fulfilling customer requests, and I know you are close by. Also, a lot of the stores won't get the blue velvets in, due to their high mortality rate. I talked to Garrif and Robert at Neptunes when I was looking, and that's how...

I was going to get a blue velvet, but then was told that it's nearly impossible to keep them alive once the FW population is under control. At least the wrasse can live off of other foods, whereas the nudis tend to starve to death = / that was what changed my mind on that, because everyone...

Thank you so very much for coming down and working on it! Sorry this post is a little late. = / But Denzil, myself and the pups had tons of fun too! It's taking us a bit longer than planned but we are hoping to have the tank on the stand within the next week. Dad's already found some of the...

I can't tell by the pictures. I do know that the flatworms will be on the glass as well-- that's how I found out that I had them. But I got a melanurus wrasse at the recommendation of Tony Vargas when he was here for his talk, and man, best fish I ever put in the tank! My male even keeps the...
