Thanks again helifaxnz. I usually place new pieces right in front of the glass to get those nice shots and then move them to where I want them in the tank. That acan went right up to the top as it came from a tank with high light. I am not worried about acclimating it to the light. The OPE...

yeah maybe a few more pounds of live rock. Be careful with the sea slugs. What kind is it exactly? Most have a very specialized diet which are usually unknown. For example, some only eat sponges, some only eat flatworms, etc. Plus, when they die they can release toxins. Your tank is off...

+1... a literal dead spot in the tank. Jesse

Hey keyoke, what did you end up doing? You can link to n-r, thats cool. Jesse

I think what you have will work just fine. The bulb will probably be cheaper to replace than the galiaxy lamp too. You can probably just spray paint the metal box if you wanted to. I personally wouldnt worry about it unless your tank in in an area where the rear is easily seen. I personally...

Cool... that works. Will the light/socket fit in the electrical box? If so, that should be perfect. If it is going behind the tank, I wouldnt even worry about disguising it with the black plastic paint tray. Jesse

It wants me to log in. I dont have an account. Do I have to make one to see the pics? Jesse

I picked up a couple new additions. I bought a 2-headed aussie acan frag and a few polyps of OPE's (orange people eaters). Jesse

Your shutterfly link isnt working for me. The aquamend is safe for your tank. I have used it in the past. The fuge light sounds good to me. Keep us updated. Jesse

I havent but it looks very similar to the BakPak skimmer I used to run. I had so-so results with it. Are you looking for a skimmer that will fit in the rear chamber? If you are willing to run a HOB skimmer, I think you will see better results from the AquaC Remora. I ran that skimmer too and...

I have no experience with the Jaubert, or "Monaco-style", system. Here is what seems to be a good read though. http://www.advancedaquarist.com/issues/ ... eature.htm It is from 2002 so I dont know if all of the info is current. THe first problem I see though is that it seems the plenum and...

Oh man. I wish Master ER still came around here. He had the sweetest mods. So clean. Jesse

If you are currently running a 70 watt MH on your nano and are thinking about switching lamps or replacing your old one I have good news! A member over on nano-reef.com is doing another group buy on the 70 watt 14,000k Astralux bulb. You may or may not be aware of how hard it is to get your...

It may be illegal... Do you know the laws about that in your area? Jesse

No dosing here. I use Coralife salt which has pretty high Ca+. I try to do weekly water changes of around 30%. I think I am going to start doing something like weekly 50% or biweekly 100% water changes after seeing my tank the day after I did my last 80%+ water change. Man what a difference...

That's a bummer. I think I was lucky in that my old RBTA found a spot right smack in the middle of my old tank and never moved. The rock was concaved and provided an area for the anemone to really get a secure place for his foot. Yes we do. Do you guys have a grill? Our apt's grills SUCK...

I like it. Have you considered laying the heater horizontally along the bottom rear of the tank? Maybe it will be a little more hidden that way. Jesse

Thanks Cris. I'll be glad to play around with your camera and help you take some shots. The PPE's are doing well. I currently have 5 polyps and 1 on the way. The monti that you gave me is also doing well. One thing though... I think I attached it to the frag plug the wrong way! :oops...

Yeah that is the FZ8... nothing added. I left the pumps on, used a tripod and turned off the image stabilization, macro autofocus, f/2.8, ISO 100, 1/20 second shutter speed. The picture of the neon toadstool I posted last night was pumps off, tripod, IS turned off, macro autofocus, f/3.2...

Here is the most recent shot of my acan. It has almost completely taken over the disk that it is mounted to. Jesse
