Yeah, it's a cry in' shame that I forgot to serve the Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee, had to pour it down the drain after you guys left................PSYCH! :rolleyes: Glad the finned friends are doing well. Only the Rocket Goby didn't make it in the shuffle. I was able to encourage the pair...
Thanks a million, Bill, Joel, Denzil, Jim, Micah, Brandie. You made it easy for me to feel real comfortable moving out my livestock and hardware to great homes in s very timely way. Be seeing you!
Hey Mike. Denzil will have the rock, but I doubt he's planning to hang on to it. Only a Gryphon diamond band saw and a Current 1/10 HP chiller to pawn off. Oh Yeah, a big new bucket of Kent salt too. I've got 4, 48" Reef
Brite LED strips that I'd part with for pretty cheap. Let me know if...
The tank move is all covered. Thanks to all who assisted and offered assistance. Sunday is tank move day, all hardware and livestock is destined for new homes this weekend. Real nice going to keep the Propagation workshops going. Hope attendance was good as it's a great way to share...
My GE Merlin "on demand" system has a very large pre filter that performs that function and needs to be replaced once or twice a year. Even with pre and post filtering, I can still discern a little bit of aromatic release from the final product. It sure beats the heck out of drinking/using...
Good suggestion, Arnold. As it turns out, I remeasured everything and between Denzil's rig a friend or two and my Jetta wagon, we've got it handled. What makes this so fine is that none of my livestock or equipment will "go away". It all will be hanging in the SF Bay Area contributing to a...
We'll definitely need a small-normal sized pick up for Sunday's tank move. If any BAR members have one and could allow us to load it for a drive from San Carlos to San Jose on Sunday, we're starting the tear down at 10:00 AM and should be ready to make a run to San Jose around 12 noon or just a...
Coffee and donuts served to tank move helpers at 10 AM Sunday. Transport may be in a station wagon, anyone got a pick-up? I'll let Denzil make that call. He's the coordinator. :D
Well.....there's just no place to store a big tank for club use right now and it was excellent timing that Denzil was ready to go for a new set-up anyway. We came to a good deal for both of us. So at this point, all the coral and fish have been given or promised to club members "on the house"...
Good news. A new plan. Denzil will be assisting in placing the tank in it's new home (his) this weekend. Thanks to all who came to the rescue and placed my live stock in great homes. Just need to place the live rock and mean old Purple Tang in new homes, hopefully this Sunday and I'll be a...
Hey Arnold,
Thanks for the post. You of all people know that the science and satisfaction of being "elbows deep" in the hobby is very high, but so is the effort to learn and grow. I'm ready for a little break. I've always admired your understanding of the whole picture of keeping salt water...
Hey Mike,
Not as bad as it sounds. The hobby will just get better and better as time goes on. A break is not a real downer for me. I've been religiously doing my water changes and tank clean ups for longer than I can say. I've lived through some major changes in the hobby. Heck, just moving...
Thanks all for your support. My enjoyment of the salt water hobby will continue and when I find the "right house" I may or may not consider setting up "something new". For now, I'll simply enjoy knowing that I've met the requirement of staying in the condo I've been renting for 6 years and see...
Hi Erin,
Well, I'm hoping to find new homes for "everything" by the end of the weekend. Joel and Bill came by last night and took custody of several of the older mother colonies. Denzil may be interested in the equipment. I love BAR and have greatly endorsed it's foundation and members over...
