It is 9am here in Minnesnowta and going to be a lovely 45 degrees. Went back to bed after my daughter got off to school and I left a note for the fed ex guy to leave my box inside the door. Well it must be a new fed ex guy, as I am woken up by pounding on the door. I get to the door and this is what I am handed! It weighed a ton!
So I pull out the bags and there are 32 bags in all. Of course I am currently acclimating them, I encourage you to look at the big version of the frags floating in my sump. You will notice about 4 different colors of FRAGS! That is with NO lights, and pissed after shipping and sitting in a shipping bag and they have that kind of colors! HOLY CRAP! Lets just say the entire box was like that! I got pinks, greens, orange, yellow, blue . . . . .the list goes on and on. About 90% of it was SPS!
WoW I can see the colors they look great!
Hurry up get them out; lets see lets see

75gal. Reef Tank (5 yr old)
20gal.Tiny's new home
30gal. Extra high FW angel tank ( 16yr old )I traded for this
5gal. Food tank
They sent this as the result of a business transaction!!!! Your not going to see these until later, as I am running out to pick up a 20k XM bulb and the lights for my refugium! So I am just going to empty the frags into the bottom of the refugium that is now empty and go to Dirks Reef and pick up frag plags, eggcrate, 20k XM bulb, dual T5 refugium light, and anything else that catches my eye!
They are all in my small refugium. Except for some lps, I put them right in the rock work. Currently mixing 25 gallons of Marine Environment salt. So as soon as I get my 30 gallon drum full of RO water I will start it mixing and head to Dirks! AWESOME Corals! I even grabbed a couple of frags for Dirk that broke during shipping!
The following is a list of what came home with me.
24" dual T5 aqua light
20k 250w XM halide bulb.
Maxijet Mod
Sure grip 100 for the maxi mod
frag plugs
Coral life 3" cooling fan.
I guess this is an early christmas present for me.
Then I headed out to menards and picked up 4 packages of super glue gel, a pack of single edge razor blades and a $10 digital VGA camera for my daughter for christmas.
Anyhow, I already put the maxijet in my tank and I uttered those words again! OH MY GOD!
A single powerhead will supply all the flow needed for this tank! The tank is cloudy right now because of all the crap that is stirred up. The fish are freaking out, and the xenia is like "whoa cowboy who started the tsunami!"
The galaxia and monti cap immediately sent out polyps and said "OH baby! you know what I like!"
Gotta pick up the daughter from girl scouts in 15 minutes then I will commence frag mounting!
