[MTG]

[MTG]

i have been informed some of my toys are on their way and should be here within the next few weeks .:eek:
getting anxious!!!

 

[MagicJ]

Matt, have you been able to find out what the hold-up has been? I am close to ordering but not if there is a major problem somewhere!!

 

[MTG]

im talking about some different toys shane!!:cool:

my tunze pumps havent landed in Aus yet, im guessing its just being delayed a little. so far its been over a month since order so it should hopefuly be arriving soon!!!

cant wait for toys:drool

on another topic. had lots of issues with my poor ventralis anthias but things are starting to look good.
i even removed the large squami anthia so that they wouldnt get attacked but who would have known that every fish in the tank would give them hell!!.
first day was the worst small female lost alot of fin, the next day the male got a beating and managed to get "pop eye" in one of his eyes what was realy devestating. a week into melefix treatment and things are looking great the eye is 80 pct healed and he should be fine.
they have also been eating like pigs what is great!!

Matt, any problems with the flame hawk and the shrimp...I wanted to do that but all and sundry talked me out of it

 

[MTG]

not a problem in a world. i also have 3 pep shrimps in there and it doesent touch it either.
the redlines large size, flame hawks medium to large,

 

[MTG]

some goodies arrived the other day,
some tunze pumps woho!:eek:
came very poorly packed (problem of DHL) as the box was wet and half hanging open.
it looked like a hobbos shelter,

pumps are so far great, still working out how to set them up how i like them but they are dead silent what i was hoping for. happy days

now i just have to wait for the rest of my toys to arrive :D

 

[MagicJ]

Great news Matt. How do they compare in size to the Vortechs? Had any problems setting up the 7096 controller?
Maybe you could do a review ;)

 

[MTG]

just the layout on the pc is rather stuiped. could be layed out better but its all functionable.
the pumps are actualy small same as my tiny 2000LPH tunze pump. glad they had the rubber feet makes vibrations minimal. cords are nice and long. super quiet compared to the vortech's

 

[slin1977]

+1 for review thanks

 

[n0rk]

Told you you were in safe hands, Greenie :)

 

[MTG]

Male ventralis is in a trap now so his tail should hopefully heal up. Female is still out with all the other fish and all settled in what's great.

 

[Tang]

Stop biting it's tail.

 

[MagicJ]

Matt, how do you like the flow from the two 6055's? Do you run them at 100%?
I am still tossing up between the 6055's and 6105's for my tank :confused:

 

[MTG]

if anything on 100 pct it makes my coral unhappy (to much flow) in saying that tho majority of my corals are lps and morphs etc :cool:
i run them alternating between 50 and 80 pct at seperate times :D

 

[Reefin]

Those morphs are unbelivable so fluorescent!!!
