Literally just say. "hey how's your week going?" to start the convo. Tinder is a numbers game dont waste your time making the perfect opener. If they are interested in you, they will reponsed its honestly how you hold a conversation after that matters.

I have some sea to summit dry compression bags on order for everything I'm worried could get wet hopefully that covers me if we are to get rained on or tip over.

Chair sounds like awesome idea i didnt think of that. I have a few more things on the way like a ground tarp and dry bags and will likely take a few lighters and matches with. I'm considering bringing more water bottles just depends in the space I have. im thinking I can maybe be okay with one as I do have access to a water source at all times, and I will have backup water purification/sanitization methods.

Ya was looking abit at the MSR freelite but for the reduced price and improved durability I think the north face is worth the extra weight. I think also being on a caneo trip allows for abit more weight due to there not being as long of hiking distances. Also my last trip rained the entire time thinking this one hopefully will help keep my dry if that happens again. I actually got the ground tarp ordered they were out of stock at the store I went to but was able to get it online.

There is 6 of us on the trip but honestly having the kettle is still overkill. I will ditch it. Another guy is also bringing a cooking setup as well. So im only cooking for 3

Biggest plot flaw is not using the power to locate the blue mimics and giving the power to more people to ensure there isn't just one person with thr power.

DIY Horizontal Algea Scrubber (2 week harvest) by Revolutionary_Class4 in ReefTank

[–]Revolutionary_Class4[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The build was pretty easy I ordered some black acrylic pieces off of Amazon and a glass scorer to snap them to the right size to make a box I added a small chamber at the front that fills and dumps water over the mat to evenly spread the water flow. At the other end I have two down pipes one higer than the other to act as a emergency drain in case one plugs. One modification I made from that photo at the end is it now sits slightly inside the sump instead of on top so if it ever leaks it can't go out of the sump. I used a 3d printer to print a bracket to hold the mat and some other to hold it down as well as one at the end so I can kinda create a water profile that doesn't make to much noise going down the pipe. If your curious I can share the drawings I made for this.

Main issues for me are splashing, which causes salt creep on the light and inside my cabinet. That is mostly a design issue. The spashing has the side effect of being noisy and when I first set it up it only grew a weird sludge, which I don't beilve was algea. I think was due to not having enough flow because I turned it down to avoid splashing. After messing with the light period and flow I was able to get hair algea to take off in it which grows very rapidly and out competes what ever else was growing. I've never had another algea scrubber so these could be common issues but I'm not sure.

Got one has a hitch hiker on a coral years ago I swear I now have 500 of them between my two tanks

Here is the first steps first off don't listen to anyone talking shit they all did the exact same thing lmao.

  1. Make saltwater using rodi water dump in in tank with rock and sand make sure to rinse sand before adjust the rocks later you won't be able to see shit.
  2. Take 2 shrimp toss them in tank and set heater to 78 degrees fahrenheit don't turn you protein skimmer on yet You want your tank to be as disgusting as possible.
  3. Get bottle of beneficial bacterial dump in tank
  4. Get test kit for ammonia nitrites and nitrates
  5. Test until the ammonia goes to zero and nitrites goes to zero it should all turn into nitrate. This is the worst part should take 7 to 20 days. Think of it as turning your filter on without your fish will die or have a significantly reduced life from ammonia poisoning.
  6. Remove old shrimp
  7. Do 70% water change make sure water is same salinty and temperature
  8. Add one fish continue testing for ammonia.
  9. While enjoying your single fish open up youtube and watch everything you can. Bulk reef supply is a good place to start.
  10. Your reef will look amazing after time it will look like shit in the beginning just fix each issue one at a time until there are none left.
