Day 1 - 6/22/24 Tank transfer day! Last full shot of it at his place. Old sump setup and plumbing I guess I didn't take any pictures of the process or how it was all loaded up. I knew it was going to be a lot of work, but man I didn't know it would be as stressful as it was. 1030am-330pm...

Did you ever get this set up on your Alexa routine? Here's the routine I have set up for feeding I don't have it set up, but a fail safe for forgetting to turn it back on could be to have an alarm sound/announcement/notification sent to your phone if the pump is off for more than x minutes.

Time to clean

I picked up this RSR Max 130D for free on Craigslist. The hood is cracked, but all the original equipment is included and working. The stand had some water damage, was falling apart a bit, and was filled with cobwebs. I removed the footing because the water damage was too bad to repair, but the...

Over the last year the snails have grown to about half their adult size. Since they are bigger I am making 5 "frags" available of 3 or 4 snails each. I have to do a trochus census to see what their actual count is. I'd guess I have about 30 left. I will try to make a trip up to the bay in the...

I just added Superman Discoma to DBTC. There are 5 frag(s) available right now. This thread was automatically created by BARcode

Maybe a couple months? They started off really really tiny. Edit: I started my tank in March. Probably noticed the babies in May. Posted the DBTC at the start of June. So they grow quite a bit in that first month to month and a half.

Glad to see these guys are still out there living it up! I believe that my numbers have dwindled down into the 30s. Haven't taken a census in a while. Living in a fluval 13.5, these guys kept going through the overflow and getting stuck in the filter material and perishing. They are finally big...

I'd like to put my name on the list if there is another one available. I'm not sure I qualify as of yet with regards to dbtc. I'd also want to make sure my tank is in a good place to add this little guy

I'm interested in attempting to grow this out. Maybe when I take some snails for a drive I can meet up with someone to get a frag?

@vissen319 I upgraded the pump to the sicce 0.5, but other than that im still pretty much stock. I recently finished my homemade media chamber I purchased the intank and copied the measurements and did a little custom build out of an acrylic sheet. Got a little impatient on one of the cuts...

@Alexx @wcfish21 @ryanraff @Mason Hey all, Just checking to see where everyone is located. Family thing came up and I ended up flying to Oregon instead of driving. I won't be heading up on Saturday like I had planned. However I'd love to do a bay area coral cruise sometime soon. If I can get...

May Started off the month by catching a baby deer in our basement light well. Then noticed for the first time that our trochus snails had babies! The duncan got pretty large and happy looking. For the longest time I wasn't sure if this really was xenia. But looking at it now it most...

Lots of updates... Let's see if I can work through them quickly. April The clowns settled in and made themselves at home. Added a sand sifting star to the CUC. I got a little worried because everything I read online said they would starve, but 3 months in it seems like it's doing pretty...

Pleasure to meet you @IOnceWasLegend. Your garage frag tank setup is pretty sweet. Looking forward to hearing if your adult trochus pair is breeding as well... And thanks for the skimmer! I'll try getting it set up on Thursday when I'm off and let you know if it works for me. Should I add into...

If I have any sets leftover today I can leave them with @IOnceWasLegend. Ill be back up this way on the 24th of July if it doesn't work out for people today. I will have a more planned out drop off plan. @1NC0GNIT0 @thesassyindian

Anyone else along 680 from Concord to San jose? I have 3 more sets of 6 baby snails with me.

OK I'll be through around 330. I'll give you an update once I'm a little closer
