Re: Counting down the hours!
Are the nitrates down since you vacuumed the gravel? How bad off was the skimmer?

Re: Counting down the hours!
LOL purple, is this in the wrong thread?
Update is put on hold for right now, it was more involved than they had thought.

Re: Counting down the hours!
When the site went down last night the warning I got was something like..."we will be back we have to do water changes, vacuum the gravel and while we are at it we will clean the skimmer..check back in an hour or three"....that is not word for word...but something like that.Pufferpunk wrote:LOL purple, is this in the wrong thread?

Re: Counting down the hours!
Got it-. Well, the water change didn't go well... something about too much bioload.

Re: Counting down the hours!
Why must we overfeed and overstock? I think it is time we tried veggie filters.Pufferpunk wrote:Got it-. Well, the water change didn't go well... something about too much bioload.

Re: Counting down the hours!
Yeah, the upgrades went quick and failed just as quickly. So, board was restored and we are looking at other options right now.

Re: Counting down the hours!
I am not sure, but I think I remember them saying they were getting rid of the blue and going purple, adding glitter and adding a grape scent when you scratch your computer screen. Or maybe that conversation was just in my head?J-P wrote:just curious, what upgrades are we talking about?

Re: Counting down the hours!
No, purplecandle, you are correct, that was not just the voices in your head.

Re: Counting down the hours!
I oppose the grape scent. I hate grape. Lets go with a nice bubblegum or cotton candy. That will still go well with the sparkley purple.
It is absurd to talk of one animal being higher than another. We consider those, when the cerebral structure/intellectual faculties most developed, as highest. A bee doubtless would when the instincts were.

Re: Counting down the hours!
Do remember that I am allergic to most fragrances - how about just a normal clean tank smell?
It might take a whole series of veggie filters for this site. I do think that we overstock and rather heavily overfeed. That is the hobby standard after all.
With rigorous QT, we could feed a whole hydroponic garden (or my banana bed) with this site's output... I don't think I am ready to harvest salad greens from my fish tanks.
