FWE does work wonders and I've had recurring FW problems due to the amount of LR in my tank and places for the little buggers to hide. I did it right according to the directions the first few times but they came back noticeably within a month. I've got a 40gallon so what I do now is use about...

I recently moved my tank as well, 40gal. Took a lot of time to break it down, but I was just skipping across town, not city to city or coast to coast. However, I have moved from TX to DC before. My LR & Fish made it in the back of a U-haul in 5 gallon buckets. At night I'd bring them in and...

A 1 meg picture? Man, you may want to resize your photo's in MS Paint before posting them, it'll save a ton on bandwidth and and memory storage if you do that.

The good doc at work. Did she use anesthetic or just go straight in for brain surgery/rhinoplasty/dental work?

I've got a flowerpot. It came out of a friends tank who had it setup for a year and it's been in my tank now for 10 months, no problems. In fact, it continues to grow and is only under 220w PC lights. I also have a clown that is hosting in it. I know they are a 'forbidden' coral but mine is...

You have direct control over your purchases, buy from local groups, frags or anything out of someone else' tank, takes the pressure off the reefs. I was reading somewhere that the US may ban anything WC from reefs in an effort to save them, if that happens, your LFS will only be supplying dry...

You mean the Texans aren't doing it for you?!?!

Completed the move, may have lost one fish cuz it's an idiot and got trapped under a rock. In the process I lost my salinity meter. So I bought a new one today, float type, and where my old one (dating back to 1997) said I was right on at 1.024 this one pegged out way above 1.032. So THIS may...

Who is Zippy Rooting for? I know he's a cubs fan, but he's from Houston and lives in ChiTown.

About 6 months into my new tank it really took off, now it covers everything and I've got to start scraping. I wish it would cover more of the rock, but that's where it has to compete with everything else, unlike anything and everything acrylic. Yeah, it looks cool.

Thanks for the info. On Friday I'm moving the tank and it's goign to get re-aquascaped. Going to get a new digicam as well so new photo's in about a month or so.

I moved my FOWLR from Houston to DC, two day trip in the back of a Uhaul in 5 gallon buckets in Janurary. I brought them into the hotel room at night and ran the protein skimmer but everything made it fine. Water was COLD but I didn't have corals that are more fragile. I'm moving my next...

Latex gloves are cheap! Plus it protects the critter from you and whatever may be on your hands.

Shrooms love Pink Floyd.

I'm out, I've got training and then painting my new apt. The month of October is going to be a tough one. Conn, will you be running a transcript?

I'll be moving it in about 2 weeks. So not looking forward to this! I think when it's re-aquascaped I'll be happier, but I've got some corals expoxied into the rock, which means I've got to break it all off and not kill anything. With my stand and everything else, It'll take 3 trips to move...

How is the best way to attach loose shrooms to rock? When they flip over they've attached themselves to sand, but all they do is float around and I don't want any to get where the sun don't shine (laugh now) and die.

In about a month I'm going to have to move my tank. 40gal w/ 15gal sump. Most of my corals are hardy, shrooms, zoas, colt, xenia. No LPS or anything and just a clown goby, clown fish and some sort of blenny I NEVER see and will finally catch and return to AW. No point in owning and feeding a...

Looks like Houston was spared. All I know is my folks lost power for four hours in the middle of hte night and that's about it.

Yup, I got word from my folks, they're out BBQin' up a bunch of food and all the neighbors are hanging around. They're more relaxed now that hte storm turned east, but they're expecting 45mph winds for 6hrs and 35mph winds for 12hrs. The news reports say all roads are open heading out of...
