Great job Ed, getting very good with that camera! :mrgreen:

:welcome to Nanotank The first picture that you posted looks like crabs that you might want to be carefull with. If you can find a way to QT them then I would The second picture that you asked about looks like possibly macro as to what kind its hard to say right now. Is it stiff? What...

Nice find on the jawfish Karen. Make sure the rockwork is secure :mrgreen:

The bacteria on the LR that you are transfering over will seed new sand. If you move the sand over you are more likely to have another cycle like Jesse mentioned. Also you could use new sand (probably going to need more anyway) and place some of the old sand with it to speed things along...

I agree with J&D on all 6 counts :-)

Have you sold the sun coral yet?

Its pretty much normal for a new tank to go through a diatom bloom. You can syphon off what you can get to and it should help it clear up. :D

Any pictures? :shock:

I hear you, I've getting ready to go to war as well with them. I used to use Lemon juice on them and it worked relatively well, now it doesn't seem to effect them at all. If memery serves me correctly....I think I got mine for who? :mrgreen:

And when you go to a frag meet try to get there early, all the good stuff goes quick :D

Great pictures Steven! :mrgreen:

Well even with that kind of transit (lucky girl! :D ) I'd still expect some dieoff. When the sand gets in, you'll have to remove the rock anyway, so I wouldn't worry to much right now. I think that the sand itself is going to kickstart the cycle. Watch your readings after a few days of...

The cured rock, where did you purchase it, a LFS or online? Even if the rock was completely cured with quick transit time, always expect a little bit of 'die off'. From the die off the cycle will start. If you are picking up a 0 reading of nitrItes, then there might be a little bit of...

That's a good question K. I've always thought of it as in the Ocean there is more of a water colum so that the temperature changes are more gradual to where in a tank that is a confined and limited space the temperature swings are more drastic. I know Im not explaining it right but...

:welcome to Nanotank Karen! A Cycle has the 'potential' to kill off good stuff on live rock. You can try to minimize this by doing water changes (deluting the concentration of Amonia for one) during the cycle but on the same hand doing so can prolong it as well. Here are a few questions...

Ha! Congrats on your successful retreival! Where you able to piece the rock back together or did you end up with several smaller peices? Any pictures?

In the last picture Jesse, are those the true Neons or the regular Blues?
