Now that I moved the chiller to the patio I had room to add my other 400 watt mh 67,000k.
It really makes a nice difference

You aint kidding....I love his shimmer on that tank!!

Now if we can just him to get a decent camera to take some good pics :P

FISHme · 05-25-2002, 06:44 PM

You aint kiddin tendar, and I just hooked up the 2 - 175 watt MH's in the bedroom tank , the 90 that was in the livig room, now I hardly need any lights in the whole condo.
Saltjunkie, OK , I guess you can have it , but you have to carry it out by yourself, no help

Scuba ,

I don't have any money left for a camera , oh wait , that is a good idea , these pictures really don't show the tank very well

TOYS , it never ends !!!!!

Well , the complete move is just about done, just some minor things left like connecting the RO unit to the new water changeout tank and wala, on to the painting , new carpet , and new bedroom set . Yeehaw , I can finally see the light

So what are you going place in the tank with the 2 pendants?

FISHme · 05-25-2002, 11:05 PM

dattack ><>
I almost got rid of this fish when I moved my system. I was ready to take it to the LFS but every time I went to feed it during the moving process I just couldn't part with it.
I built the setup with the pendants just for my Queen. I wasn't planning on this tank being set back up

I have her in a holding tank and will be moving her into the new location on Sunday 5/26/02.
The holding tank is a part of the system in the closet.
Both tanks are part of the system, I'm running about 300 gal now with all the sumps, refuges and tanks.

I've had this Queen for almost 5 years, got it as a juvenile.

JO,
Well thank ya, thank ya very much ( In an Elvis voice )

Here she is today back in her new old home at last .

Do you use a uv in your tank? Did you ever have any problems with the queen angel not eating? How high are your nitrates? How often do you perform water changes? My Blue Angel has been in my tank for 1 year and is not eating. The Blue will eat some floating dry pellets, but won't eat the frozen food, and presently doesn't really seem to be eating. I do 20% water changes each week, have a uv going, and the blue is in a 200 gallon tank.

FISHme · 05-29-2002, 12:33 AM

Fishrule, No UV, it is in a closet with ALL the other STUFF I don't use anymore

My 90 is connected to the rest of my system wich is now around 300 gal total water volume so I normally have NO nitrates .I have not checked in the past couple weeks but should to see since the move . I checked a few weeks ago after moving about half the system and they were at zero.
I normally do a 40 gal water change a month but went about 3 months up untill this past week end when I finally moved the Queen out of the holding tank which is the water changeout tub. I was finally able to do a water change on sunday after I restructured my ne changeout system. I used to use 2 - 50 gal sterilite tubs but had to downsize to one to fit the system into the closet.
I don't have any problems with feeding, sorry to hear about Blue not eating properly.
I love the Blue Angel, almost more than the Queen. They are a beautiful fish . I had one years ago , man I love the long streamers . Mine died when it sucked in some crushed coral ( that is what I used at the time ) and it got stuck in it's rear end and could not pass it . The fish stopped eating , got FAT and died.
I suspected the obvious and cut the fish open to see if this was true and sure enough I found crushed coral that got stuck .
What a bummer .
Good luck with your fish .
