    djconn's 2.5

    Its been a little over a month now and everything is nice and settled. I have no algae problems and evaporation hasn't really been an issue. I still see little isopods every now and then but since I don't have any fish, they don't bother me. I changed the 50/50 out with a 6500K daylight. It...

    Live rock in Houston?

    I was just at Aquatic Center and forgot to check out the live rock price. The rock all looked pretty nice. The batch I checked out was cured and had some nice coralline growth.

    Aquatic Center visit

    I decided to head out to Aquatic Center today for the first time. Its a really nice store and I was very impressed. The fish all looked very healthy and he had a nice selection of corals and inverts. I met Kenny, the owner, and chatted with him for a good while. Nice guy with lots of good...

    Galveston Trip

    I didn't go but it looked like they got some pretty interesting stuff. I saw a few pics on MAAST. I wonder if anyone has a pic of a tank that is full of nothing but local self-collected fish, inverts, sand and rock? That would be awesome.

    New weekend purchases...

    Well, I had to get my weekend fix of new corals so here they are... I picked up this awesome yellow zoanthid piece from Aquatic Warehouse in San Antonio on Saturday. Picked up this 2" montipora frag from Aquatic Center. Both new pieces were put into my 5.5 nano.

    Flatworms and how to get rid of them?

    Finally picked up a nice 6-line wrasse today at my LFS. He's very interesting to watch. Goes in and out of the rockwork and is constantly hunting. Very pretty as well. We'll see if he's hungry for flatworms...I sure hope so! I will let everyone know if he helps out.

    Chat

    Yes there is and I've been looking into it. I've also been trying to add the 'attachment' feature so members wouldnt be required to provide their own host for images. It requires a significant mod but I think I can do it. I agree, the chat would be useful and pretty cool when there are a...

    Tropical Fish & Pet Depot

    Anyone been there before? Good or bad experiences?? I went yesterday just to check it out b/c I was on that side of town and a member on this site had mentioned it. Its a pretty big store with lots of freshwater. They had some pretty decent live rock at $5.99/lb. Also had lots of SW fish...

    Urine Trouble Again!

    I had this green brittle star (at least thats what dr.foster&smith called it) in my 20 for almost a year. He was a huge pain and always knocked over my frags. He also ate 2 of my fish. He was small when I got him but was prob. about 6-7" by the time he became a nuisance. I finally traded him...

    Candy Coral

    Nope, I do it during the day. They seem to sense when they are being fed and once one head gets a piece of food, the others send out their little tenticles and grab up food.

    Candy Coral

    I would say mine have about doubled in size in a year. Maybe not that much but close to it. Mine have done very well. Easy to keep and they love to be fed. I target feed mine and they pretty much just take it out of my hand.

    96w Blasta

    Yep, JB Weld is awesome. I actually used it once to fix some rust holes in the gas tank of my moped. The stuff works good and is cheap.

    purple worm?

    Man, it really looks like an every day baby earthworm. Maybe a nudibranch?? Does it look more like a slug or a worm Karita? Anyone got any ideas? This is a new one for me. :-k

    MARSH Members?

    I've been in contact with Sherri (site administrator) at MARSH and she seems very nice. She added a link to Nanotank.com on the MARSH site and I'm going to add a MARSH link here in return. I've been too lazy to sign up for the last two years so I think I'll have to get on the ball and just...

    where do I buy a retro light kit for my 9 gallon jebo tank?

    I would not think so Dave. You would really be limiting yourself. I would check out www.hellolights.com or www.ahsupply.com and maybe contact their customer service line to ask them. They should know if any of their retros would fit. The 32 watters won't fit?
