Upgrade :-)

Finally got my cash straightened out from my pension and changing jobs...

So time to upgrade

As of now the plans are Aquacontroller III, temp probe, DC8.. guy has this in my club selling for $250

Picking up a mp40w for $335

Redoing my sump with a 55 gallon

Then getting a Vertex IN 280 skimmer (get good deals on these through my club)

Also placing a nice coral order and trading around some fish

What you guys think?

 

always good to keep the economy going cd. lol . congrats on getting things in order , but sorry about your wet addiction problem.

 

Yeah.. i cant help it.. lol i looked at new fixtures as well and talked myself out of it.

I am going between a powder blue and a blonde naso as far as tang..

I have a 6 foot 125g right now.. but plan on upgrading next year.. so I dont think they naso will outgrow my tank by then.

I love the powder blues but no one local carries them.. and I am kind of afraid to order online since they are so difficult fish. I am scared of them anyway. I see many people with them though. I posted on here recently about them and people have kept them before. LOL think i just need a boost to say do it

 

For powder blues, I heard the ones from maldives have the best chance of survival. Live Aquaria is one place I have seen that sells them, not sure if anyone else does. The down side is your going to pay a little more, but your chances of singing the powder blues will be greatly reduced.

Yeah not sure what to do on that one... I love the fish.. very beautiful.. just afraid of losing it

 

I fell hard for them also, but after a disaster I am quite happy with my powder brown.

saltwaterfish.com is running a special on powder blues and they have a 14 day guarantee. I have never ordered fish online, so I can't speak to their quality,but I know some people swear by them

 

thanks for the info blumoon... will have to check into it.

I really just didnt want a hippo tang due to the nemo movie.. I already have a percula.. lol
Will see what i can find out

 

ive had horrible luck ordering from saltwaterfish.com, bought four fish four different times all arrived DOA

 

Liveaquaria is a good place to try then, they have that 14 day guarantee. It is a much better guarantee than most places.
