    The Goniopora Secret

    While it's nicely written, it's still just anecdotal. It's written in a scientific manner, but it's not a scientific study in any fashion. You've got way too many variables, some of which aren't even mentioned for it to be particularly useful. I think it's somewhat misleading to folks without...

    YES.

    That's really not that different than the prices here. And we have a port. That's part of the reason that I don't buy new tanks. There are way too many nice used systems out there that are less than half of the new cost to make me want to go in and buy a new one. B

    Can i have a s small sea anemone in a 23 g tank with coral

    It depends on how long the tank has been up, what type of filtration you're running, and what kind of lights you have on it. There's no garantee that even if you've got a setup where an anemone would thrive that your clowns will host in it. It's a very hit-or-miss proposition. So again...

    Neptunes Garden and Tropical Fish Depot Visit

    I haven't seen new tanks yet. Although they've taken over the space next door that used to be a small pets store. I'd be surprised if they added more saltwater tanks though. I believe it's the same owners, but they've got a new saltwater manager/managers. They've always had better prices...

    will this work for a nano

    Which 2 did you get? The 10w, or the 20w? Personally I don't think these things are much good except as clip lamp lights for a fuge, even then I think they're more expensive than they're worth. I'd have saved a bit more money up and gotten a 96w coralife powerquad fixture, but that's me...

    Phischy's Quest: Pt IV

    I'd essentially suggest the same things, shift it to lower/higher light areas, if there isn't any improvement, maybe lower/higher flow areas. Even doing this you may not have any luck. I've tried 3 small favia brains now, and they've all just sorta withered away. I've moved them all over...

    Fish for a 2.5?

    Wow....For some reason I've missed everything in this thread since the last time I responded in it. Mike, That's an incredibly generous offer on your part. I really appreciate it, but I think Conan has a great home. Eventually I'll fine one local that is doing well. It's not like they're...

    It was silly easy to convert. This is what we ordered. http://www.bigalsonline.com/catalog/pro ... 885&pcid1= and http://www.bigalsonline.com/catalog/pro ... ry_id=3153 I would get something like one of these as well to light it. http://www.bigalsonline.com/catalog/pro ...

    Two gallon vase

    What plants do you have in your tank? As long as you do regular water changes and hang a bubbler in there to keep the water aerated it should be fine. B

    Hmmm..There is that. How far south are you? For some reason I didn't think you were that far away. I figured you could call in the order and do a day of fish stores when it was ready for pickup. For a small one you could just get some plexi at home depot and build one yourself. If you...

    I would think so. But for a 30L, you might just want to make a custom one that would fit flush behind the tank and run the entire lenght of it. My boss did this with his 18g half-round tank. He gave the measurements to John at Global, who placed the order with universal. I think it took...

    Want to start 38cm cube

    So order it online. Here's one I found that's new on Ebay, but I'd think some of the larger companies would ship to Australia. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... eName=WD1V

    My wife used a aquaclear 500 on the back of her 10g. It seems to work pretty well. B

    tube anemone

    These guys do get very large. I'd take some pics and see if you can sell it to someone locally before it outgrows your tank. What color is it? I've got an orange one, a purple one, and a pink one. B
