First of all, I'm wasted. Took down the 42g hex, removed the sandbed (thanks Richer and Newguy
) and set up the tank again on the glass, no plexi or starboard, just plain glass.
The worst part of the take down was AGAIN scraping off the bubble algae which seems to spread no matter how hygenic I make the process
Don't know how I did it, but had some LR left at the end, even without the sandbed. It actually looks pretty nice in the tank, with the glass reflecting the rock above it. Am going to live with it for awhile, until our new tanks and stands arrive, and decide if we want to go that route in all the tanks. I'm kinda thinking I will.
Had a few rocks fall during reaquascaping, but nothing major. Was careful to place sturdy rock on the bottom to hold the rock above. Did I mention how wasted I am
Wish our server was working, but Telus cut our service because we weren't supposed to run a server with our internet package
Am revamping our website during the down time and will post pics of the new tanks when things get back to normal around here.
Will let folks who want more aragonite sandbed when we get there. PM me if you're interested.
Man, am I wasted
