    No power...the aftermath

    This is one of the first things I thought of as I have been reading about blackouts in California and the Northeast. I am personally going to purchase a Tripp-Lite battery backup. They are less than $100 at Costco, and could help a LOT in situations such as this. Roo, sorry for your...

    "Reefcast" Podcast, Video Podcast

    I finally got the latest episode to download. Talking Reef is BY FAR superior to Reefcast. At least the first episode I downloaded was much better. Reefcast sounds more like a bad "Waynes World" and while there are some production values that could be improved, it really is quite good.

    Cleaning Crew

    OK, so 2/3 of the crew is here and working. The other 1/3 is on the way. While I had decided on what snails I wanted, I never considered availability. SO, when the online vendors I had considered ordering from all had the same thing as my LFSs did, I bought locally. Here's what I bought...

    Ricordia Mushroom question

    Nope, it was just on two of them. I haven't checked yet this morning to see if there are others affected. But it was just a single string coming from the mouth area, nowhere else.

    Ricordia Mushroom question

    Sooooo... I bought a green ricordia mushroom rock the other day. It sure looks nice, plus there is some sponge on it, and what lookes to be a bivalve tunicate, maybe a cousin to a sea squirt on the rock. My question is this... I see some brown stringy stuff coming from the mouths of two of...

    Skip... you sure we're talking about the same guys? Marc ("Melev") and Evan ("Quiksilver") are the only two individuals I could find who were involved with this particular project. AND these guys are out of Texas... Marc is the president of the Dallas - Fort Worth Marine Aquarium Society. If...

    "Reefcast" Podcast, Video Podcast

    Anyone ever heard of "Reefcast" - a podcast for Marine enthusiasts? The production quality of the episodes is pretty poor, and half of what they talk about is pretty useless. However, the other half is actually very informative (at least to me) and halfway entertaining. You get what you pay...

    NEW TANK

    I was actually told 10 watts per gallon, seems really REALLY low. And as far as moonlights go, they're really just for show... for YOU.

    Fraggin Frags.

    Here is a commonality I have found in certain types of shops: bike shops, dive shops and fish stores. If you can find a good one it is locally owned by an enthusiats/hobbyist/aquarist who isn't trying to get rich, who got into it mainly because he/she had a passion for what they enjoy...

    RO/DI Here Today! - Lighting

    Well, anyone that has been following my posts knows I have had a pH problem with my water, and I have put a lot of buffers in that water to bring it from 7.8 - 8.0 to (FINALLY!) 8.2. There was some speculation that once I got RO/DI water, this problem would vanish. I am happy to report this...

    RO/DI Here Today! - Lighting

    WOOHOO! First seven gallon bucket of RO/DI water is done! Salt is added, and the powerhead is mixing things up while the heater brings up the temp. CAN I WAIT 24 HOURS? Well, we shall see. I do have a bit of a conundrum, as I only have one extra heater, and this is one of those few...

    Question. When you say "photoperiod" do you mean my daylight, or EVERYTHING?
