Re: [GSAS-Member] Fluorite , bogwood and swords...

Susan,

I have had some luck with Clout taking algae off of things.  Or
scrubbing them with salt after letting them dry in the sun.  Of course,
right now there is not much sun for drying anything.

That sounds good, but they are covered in black algae? I bleached some
off of some wood, then it looked like it had white fur on it in the
tank. Then the snails ate it off, but then the wood was lighter. I
wonder if there is a better way to do. Sandblasting? But then, I don't
have one of those. Any ideas anyone?

Susan,

 The four pieces I have are pretty big, they filled the 75E that I was
using them in. That's the biggest that I have, if you're interested.

Wow, hi Deb, Happy Valentine's day. Do you or anyone else have any huge
pieces of bog or submersible wood for a 180 gallon?

I'm taking down my 75G tank and have LOTS of fluorite available. It was
about 3" deep in the tank. There is also a small amount of sand and some
larger pebbles mixed in.

After everyone bought plants last night, if you need some of this let me
know and come get it! Make me an offer on some or part. I'm more
interested in getting it used than I am anything else.

I also have some bogwood with java fern and java moss attached. This,
however, is also covered with BBA. Hydrogen peroxide worked to get rid
of it in the past and I'm sure it could work again. I'll let the wood go
for relatively cheap. I hate to see the plants die but I just don't have
the time or desire to get rid of the stuff (hence why the tank is going
to be a home for my Boa for awhile). Again, make me an offer on the
wood, the plants are free ;-)

Also have some Amazon swords for those of you that didn't get enough
last night. They're in good shape, just need some leaves taken off and a
chance to come in where there's not a lot of algae.

I'd love to have some of this or all if it gone tonight.

Thanks!
Deb

Subject: [GSAS-Member] PSKA meeting on Saturday 1p.m. in Woodinville

Does someone have a slide projector they can bring? I think I'll need it
for the presentation. Also, I'm very much looking forward to the
meeting, a few folks from GSAS said they might attend too.
 
If you weren't at the GSAS auction last night, it was a total hoot, lots
of great plants, lots of fish, spirited bidding and hard work by the
organizers. Definitely I'm looking forward to the next big auction in
April of fish and dry goods.
 
Matt
