    Global visit last night.

    Yep in a couple of the tanks there appeared to be a little bit of cyano on the sandbed in the front of the tank. Basically if they put a powerhead or two in the tanks facing that direction it would be gone. What's TFH? My avatar right now is a macro crop of my RBTA...Actually taken from...

    hi new here....

    It just depends on taste....I've got the 96w quad over the octo tank, and my wife's 10g. We like it fine. My boss has the same thing, over his 18g, but doesn't think the actinic is quite strong enough. Here's the same light cheaper. http://hellolights.com/ The 20" one here isn't quite...

    Global visit last night.

    I went through Global last night and took a bunch of pics....These three are image intensive. B http://marshreef.com/modules.php?name=F ... pic&t=5872 http://marshreef.com/modules.php?name=F ... pic&t=5873 http://marshreef.com/modules.php?name=F ... pic&t=5874

    Concerts

    Ummm...I'm not sure who you were talking to, but since there's not vendors/vending, it's not a commercial festival at all. I've been to Burning Man in Nevada 4 times. I've been to the Texas Regional one, (Flipside), 6 times. As the size of the venue has increased and people have died...

    a nudibranch? born in the jbj??

    I don't think that stuff is valonia...I think it's just cyano. Check out the pics here. If you click on them it tells you what type it is. B http://melevsreef.com/id/kritter2.html

    shroom tank

    Actually I just confused the issue by typing too fast and then not going back and re-reading.....I meant to say that he could ask Mike, Dragon's brother. Hell, earlier I even posted the thread where Mike and I were discussing his t5's. Instead it just came out ask Dragon....Sorry. I goofed. B

    VTF visit last night

    Ok...12th down is this... If so, it's not a kind of shroom...It's a trumpet coral, or candy cane.

    Panic stations+complete rebuild!

    That's just freaking terrible. Congrats on having a wife that didn't kick you out for the night just for suggesting another fish tank. :wink: B

    Panic stations+complete rebuild!

    Ouch....That had to have been terrible. One of the guys here locally had not one, not two but 3 tanks leak on him. First was a 75 that sprung a leak, not too bad, but the living room carpeting had to be professionally cleaned, he had to scramble to get tubs and a new tank to not lose...

    VTF visit last night

    I posted two threads over on MARSH of things I saw in VTF last night. They're both very image intensive. B http://marshreef.com/modules.php?name=F ... pic&t=5795 http://marshreef.com/modules.php?name=F ... pic&t=5796

    Proper care for "Harlequin Shrimp"

    Nope these guys and bumble bee shrimp only eat the tube feet of starfish. I found a few pages that say that they will both eat the tube feet of a few types of urchin, but most of the more scientifically slated sites don't mention them eating on urchins. They will NOT eat anything else...

    RO excess water usage

    I doubt it would be a good idea to use it for any tanks. It'll still have all the chemicals and impurities that you don't want in it. But I'm not really an expert on the filters. Most folks I know that want to conserve the waste water either run a line directly to their lawn or flowerbeds, or...

    Panic stations+complete rebuild!

    That sucks...Sorry it happened, but I suppose it's better now while there's nothing in the tank. Good job getting it cleaned up before the wife saw it. I'm lucky in that my wife is as addicted as I am...And she's caused a few spills as well. I came home on Monday night actually an as I...

    R-2 moonlight + two 3/4 coralife moonlights..

    Very nice...Moonlights only is a very difficult shot to do well, good job. I love the way the moonlights pull make the rics and the zoos fluoresce. B

    hi new here....

    Congrats. Most of the companies online will take a check or money order. It slows down the process by a couple days, but is doable. You want to let the tank cycle with your substrate, and liverock, once it's cycled you can order your corals, fish, and majority of your clean up crew at...

    shroom tank

    According to the site I guess you would. Ask Dragon, he has some of these. I'm not finding any t5 bulbs by jebo or odysea anyplace that is 11, 12, or 13 inches long. B

    Thinking of buying one of these :

    I see. I've only seen a few tanks that had macro in the display. For most of them it was intentional, to give tangs something to graze on. These were large tanks of course. It might be cool to have macro in a small tank. Almost like having a planted FW tank. B
