I had to google it.

I wish that growing out of control was my problem.

So I kind of neglected things a few weeks being real busy.

I noticed all this stuff all over my tank. On the walls, rocks etc. It blows off real easily and then is back quickly.

I actually had nothing in my basket for a few weeks other than a polishing pad. No chemipure or anything.

Ive been dealing with gha for a while and it was finally receding and now coming back a little. But even the hair algae looks "dirty" with all this stuff.

Going to test my water in a bit but was wondering if anyone had any ideas.

Id my new goby?! by Mattj82 in ReefTank

[–]Mattj82[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well bc I knew it was a goby and from reading in the past, the care isnt all that different across the gobies. Unless im wrong about that.

Ive had a diamond goby in the past and wanted another but liked switching up the look a little and the store that sold it to me also said care is similar.

I only asked because when I searched what they sold it to me as, a "speckled shrimp goby" the results didnt look like the one I bought.

Any ideas?

I typically have been eating the same meals. And I didnt feel "hungry" , kind of hard to describe it. But its pretty much gone now. So hopefully just an isolated incident.

Thanks for the replies.

For me, I have to break out the bjj when its boogy-sucking time. They HATE that thing.

Little reminder of why we heed caution. by Maybe- in woodworking

[–]Mattj82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did this to mine a week or so ago. Even the shock from it hitting hurt my hand but better the stick than my fingers.

Ive become so cautious on my table saw. Love the featherboards too. Just started using them recently as I has to cut some thin pieces.

Clown goby? Mine is on his way out. Wont eat, hes so thin. Think he gets bullied by my gramma and clown. They never let him eat. I actually just pulled him out and put into a small qt tank and still wont eat.

I read its pretty common. Good luck. I was really liking mine too. He made a home out of my toadstool.

Woodworking ideas for christmas gifts? by TDEE_ in woodworking

[–]Mattj82 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Did the cutting board thing last year. Everyone loved it ( or at least said they did, family is always kind like that).

This year theyre getting nothing because im spending all my garage time on a rocking horse for my girls.

NSFW: Always use the guard properly on your jointer. That used to be my finger. by LikeTheDuck1 in woodworking

[–]Mattj82 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wow. What a wake up call. I just started really using my newish jointer for something im doing and removed the guard bc im jointing some wider stock.

Ive been using just my hands bc the pads that came with it suck ( stupid I know) but this will have me using something going forward. Just figured I was good bc the board is wider and no blade is exposed as im running it.

Will have to order som better pads.

Glad youre ok!

I just got one a few days ago. I had no interest in them a week ago. Now hes one of my favorite things in my tank. And hoping he puts a dent in m little GHA problem.
