They're HERE!

Cleaner crew arrived today. SaltwaterFish.com is a great store to work with. With the storm that hit last week they actually held my order as to avoid any delays! Fellow reefer Wes split the cost for the crew. Thanks Wes!

Everybody arrived well. After we split the bounty, I started the drip acclimation period. I used rigid white tubing. The kind used on RO/DI systems. I cut one piece about 4 feet long, inserted a valve and then use another piece of tubing 1 foot long that ran to the gallon container holding the crew. I ran the drip at about 6 drips per second for 40 minutes and then increased it to even flow for another 30.

Hardest part was prying the Turbos off of each other.

Now get to work cleaning!

I have decided on my fish.

1. Sixline Wrasse
















2. Black Perc






















3. 4-wheel drive/Signal Goby
















4. Chalk Basslet
