Well today I tried to find a few of the isopods to take pics of and I couldn't find a damn one! I guess without a host to live off of, they finally died off. I read somewhere that they eventually would without fish in the tank but I didn't think it would happen in 1 month! Maybe they are just...

Hi sdbeazley and welcome! Is that a protein skimmer hooked up to a fluvial surface skimmer? What is the age of the tank? More info and pics please!

Yeah, lets put your video clip up here. That would rock! NY Aquarium= [-X

You might be thinking I meant copopods...I'm talking about isopods. These guys are pretty big. I could just suck them up in a turkey baster. They would probably kill a mandarin b/c they are parasitic blood suckers. There aren't enough copopods in my 5.5 or 2.5 gallon nano to support the...

I see it....go TEXANS! Wahoo.

Welcome CT Nano Reefer and nice tank! Is it acrylic? What is its age and lighting? More pics too please :D p.s. I moved it from its original location to create a whole new post dedicated to your tank.

Sounds good Phischy. Just let me know if and how I can help with anything. I'm sure others could benefit from pop's woodworking skills and would be more than willing to pay for it. I can easily ad a link on my page for him (that is for a few custom canopies of course). hehehe :lol:

Welcome geotransit! That post is hi-larious...let see what others have to say. =P~

Hello and welcome Zipperton! I would second the Shedd and New Orleans Aquarium although I would have to say I was a little disappointed in the Coral Reef Exhibit at the Shedd. Not really worth the money IMO. The tunnel in the New Orleans aquarium is the coolest thing I've yet to see. I've...

Sorry it took so long...had to organize all my pics 8-[. This tank was originally a fish only tank with a few pounds of live rock, crappy lighting and TONS of algae. I decided to completely rework it and started basically from stratch. The tank is currently about a year and a half old. Here...

Hey guys, I've recently found a boat load of pretty decent sized isopods in my nano tanks. I've done some research and found out that the ones with the big black eyes are definitely the bad ones. Mine don't have the big black eyes but from what I'm gathering, they are still troublesome and...

I live in Houston and would love to trade some frags with someone. Anyone?

My new button test...

About 2 months ago (Feb 04) I purchased about 5 lbs of Marshall Island cured 'nanorock' from http://www.premiumaquatics.com/. The price was reasonable at $3.49/lb and the packaging was great. At the same time I ordered a 32wX2 CSL PC retro kit for my 5.5 nano. I had found a vendor online...

Nanorock Added some water, pure aragonite sand and some nanorock from Premium Aquatics. See below... The tank is on its 3rd week of cycling and I'll post full tank shots soon.

I also purchased a AquaClear 150 for flow locally for $25. I tossed in a handful of wiregrass with some rubble rock to create a mini fuge. With the flow turned all the way down (yes, its adjustable) it has the perfect amount of flow for my 5.5. I also got mini Eheim powerhead for flow and it's...

I purchased the Custom Sea Life 32WX2 retro kit from Premium Aquatics to mount onto the hood of the tank. It came with the reflector so with a little drilling, I got it all secured. I bought some rubber screw-in clamps to secure the ballast wires to the hood. The 10K daylight and actinic...

Nanorock Here is some of the Marshall Island nano rock I purchased from Premium Aquatics to put into the tank. Great price at $3.49/lb. It came packaged very well and I was happy with the quality and size of the rock. For more discussion on my purchases from Premium Aquatics please see my...
