    VTF this weekend.

    I'm going out of town for the weekend so I went by last night on my way home from work to get ghost shrimp. They had just got a shipment in and I finally used my b-day gift cert to get these three ricordia yumas.

    Sick shrooms?!?!?

    Your mushrooms may have just been pooping. Mushrooms are basically flattened anemones without the sting, and they have one hole that the food has to come in and the waste has to go out. It doesn't seem as noticeable on the flatter types of shrooms but the fluffy ones definitely seem to...

    Captive Purity Refractometer with Light

    I've mostly heard postive things. But there are some negs, and they aren't as accurate as refractometers. B

    Phischy's Project PtIII: Actually have corals!

    This is basically the way I feed. I do place ALL my frozen food into a small cup of tank water and let it thaw first, then use a turkey baster to squirt it all around the tank. It's VERY easy to over feed with cyclopeze because it's so small a lot of it will get wasted by being sucked into the...

    Cap in hand, on bended knee...

    When my Dad and I were working on the plumbing for my current setup in the 75g we had one of those moments. Luckily my wife caught the problem and pointed it out. Basically on my 75g I have the return going into the tank then it gets split into two separate oulets. I also have what amounts to...

    I definetly give the trap a try. Lots of people make their own and it does the trick for them. So far I just haven't had any luck with either one's I've made, or the store-bought ones. One of the best methods I've seen for removing mantis shrimp, and unwanted bristleworms from LR, that...

    :mrgreen: I'm happy it was a mistake in your favor.....Usually when I have a 'Homer moment', it means I've gotta work extra hard to fix it. B

    VTF this weekend.

    I went through VTF this weekend. Usually I post them quicker but work's been a biotch this week. The thread is very image intensive. http://marshreef.com/modules.php?name=F ... 7774#47774

    I've tried the little green trap before, and never caught anything. Anyone have any luck using it? Check out this worm. http://www.oregonreef.com/sub_worm.htm

    Quick Poll takes 10 seconds to answer...

    Moonlights on when the tank lights are off. There's no good reason to leave them on when the tank lights are on if you don't have to. Just a waste of electricity. B

    From LPS to SPS....

    Hmmm.....I reread my post, and I want it to be clear that I didn't mean to imply that you're not gonna be successful at this. I don't think you'll have ANY issues with water quality. The fact that you've kept such a healthy looking tank means that you're used to maintaining very good...

    From LPS to SPS....

    You'll probably need to increase your flow significantly. Otherwise I think with your lights You'll probably do fine. Just because something is SPS doesn't mean that it can't extend tentacles and whatnot to fight it's neigbors. Check this out. http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthrea ...

    Alternative to suction cups?

    I'd silicone it. That way if you decide you want them seperated for some reason it should be easy to cut them apart. Like if your PH dies, and you need another. You don't want to have to buy the new PH and a new magnet. With the superglue They're gonna pretty much permanently welded...

    JBJ Nano

    You'll also pay 25%-50% more than the other stores if you buy pretty much any tank, piece of equipment or dry good at aquarium world. Ocassionally they get in livestock that other stores don't have, but their prices on the 'normal' livestock is always 25%-or-more above most of the rest of the...

    hi new here....

    Narkon, :booty: :wink: B fishcrazee, Don't sweat it. I do a lot of reading and searching for stuff over on RC, and I think it's probably the best source of fast info in this hobby. However the people on it can be very brutal about flaming people that ask questions that have been...

    Star polyps not opening...

    A bunch of stuff in my tank closed up for several hours to a couple days after I treated with flatworm exit. It didn't seem to do anything any permanent harm, but you could tell some things didn't like it much. B

    eclipse 5..

    Heh, heh...Goofball #2 :wink: The only eclipse 5 out there is a hex tank. Is this what you're looking at? If so the light it comes with is a 15w incandescent light. It's not suitable for marine corals. Period. I mentioned mine, because it's a much larger eclipse hood. It comes with...
