Laurie, LMK when it's ready for some corals. I could frag a piece of my green w/purple tip hammer maybe I could make a scroll coral combo frag of yellow and purple and zoas/palys of coarse.

This thread goes to show what a great community canreef is! What a stellar group of people here, so very generous and thoughtful!

Laurie, your daycare sounds amazing and provides a much needed service in the community.

Looking forward to seeing this tank grow, please keep us posted on how things progress!

It is an amazing centre and the ladies I work with are fantastic, I really do like my job

I totally agree, canreef is a wonderful community and its wonderful that so many people are willing to help out and donate items

I will defiantly keep up on updates, so everyone can see how it's coming along.

Tested the water today. First checked the salinity and oddly it was high (1.030) when it should of been low since I added extra top off water for the weekend. Got it down to 1.025, and checking the calibration on my refractometer when I get home.

Happy to report the crab and rock feather duster survived the weekend. Tested the parameters and ammonia is at 0 nitrite 0 and nitrate 10

Reading through this thread is encouraging - great to hear how folks in the Edm area are coming together to do something like this - great job! Looking forward to seeing it full of lifestock.

Thanks I plan on adding clownfish soon, although I admit its pretty cool to see how excited the kids get just over the tank and rock. A 16 month old (today) kept running to the tank, looked in it, then squealed in excitement and then ran away. Super cute to watch.
