Nov. 19th Update

[calihawker]

Hello all! Well I'm gearing up to go on vacation tomorrow, Cancun! yay! I'll be gone 10 days and the group will be left on their own. This is where all my efforts at automation pay off. I feel very comfortable leaving. They will be fed 3x a day with ON prime reef flake and twice a day with tetra color bits. Water change will still be 90% daily. I have a neighbor coming over a couple times to vaccum the bottom but I have the siphon placed in such a way that the majority of uneaten food and poop ends up in that spot. I've been running it this way for the last five days and it's flawless.

When I get back I will be going full force on their new home, can't wait!

Nothing else to report. All's well!

Talk to ya'll when I get back!

Hey Steve
Nacho is getting huge and Spike is Gigantic. They all look awesome. Great job on the automation, between it and your good care it looks like it is working really well.
Looking forward to your new tank but I kind of like this semi planted one....he he.
Great job buddy,
Bill

Re: Nov. 19th Update

Thanks Bill. The new one's gonna be semi planted as well. No substrate though. Probably a couple swords in pots and some anubias tied to driftwood. I have plenty of plants since I'm tearing the plants out of my display.

Cheers!
