No wait .. kinky plumbing in a bathroom would still be a bad thing. I have no idea why I thought that comment would be funny. It's clearly not, and anyone who suggests otherwise has their mind on other things. Not me. Nope, nosiree, not me.

So my kinky plumbing is all up and working tonight. Transferred over all of the corals and one anemone tonight. Things look happy so far. Messed around with the skimmer abit as I had to create a riser stand for it. And that is enough for one night. Need to do some fine tuning and transfer the fish - perhaps tomorrow... No time for pics tonight.:wink:

Dude new tank adrenaline! Good call that is exactly what it is. All-nighters aren't even hard when you're on that. I was on that for a LONG time.

Fine tuned the skimmer abit and finally got it producing foam. Having some pretty nasty microbubbles in the display??? Hoping the need to work their way out as the system settles in?? Air in the lines??? Anyway, other than that, everything is running well. Corals all look pretty good. They are just tossed in at the bottom to acclimate them to MH lights so no real neat organization yet. Still some nasty green hair algae growing! Turbos are eating it ...slowly. May need to rent a seahare in abit!:wink:

Few pics of the sump and tank with coral in.

Wow, that GSP is big! Looks great so far Carmen! Good luck on the fish transfer tomorrow..

Carmen 12-18-2009 04:16 AM

Well, fish transfer done...and it wasn't quite as smooth as the first move.:cry: Lost my Flame angel!!:sad: Not sure exactly what happened but a rock may have actually fallen on her. However...while all of the other fish either looked not happy or barely alive, most are swimming abit. Dori is looking mighty stressed but is checking things out somewhat. Royal Gramma is fine, since I moved her in her "home" so she is comfy already. Copperband looked dead but is actually swimming now. Haven't seen the mandarin, cleaner wrasse or the goby. Clowns aren't even fazed! Just protecting their nem - which is looking quite unhappy so far. Shrimp pair are alive but one didn't look so good in the bin so not sure if he will pull through.
Fingers crossed for a positive end to a very stressful move for my fishies!:neutral::sad:
Super Stressed......and heading to bed....
