    fire shrimp

    I've had 2 fire shrimp. They were in the same tank, and both were very skittish and shy. They mainly came out at night. Does anyone else's come out often. I'm not sure I'm gonna spend $25 on another one if it's just gonna hide in the rockwork all the time. B

    My first tank

    I think that blue line is a trick of the light when they took the pic. The one's I've seen in the stores were all clear glass. But sometimes when you get the right angle on the end of a pane of glass it appears darker. Definitely get a pic of it if you can. B

    Heh, heh...Didn't you get enough affirmatives over on MARSH? It should be fine. I believe you were asking about percs. Do you want true percs, or false percs, (occellaris)? B

    Electric Blue Hermit Crab (dead or alive??)

    I found one of those anemone shrimp on Austin once and grabbed it cause I never see them here in Houston. The thing dove into the anthelia, and then I never saw it again. I think maybe my coral banded got it too. There are several shrimp and crabs that I'm on the look-out for because...

    Pic of the week --- Fish

    Fish can be the most problematic to take pics of. Especially the free-swimming variety. They just don't like to sit still for some reason. :lol: Anyway, post your favorite fish pics. Doesn't matter what kind of fish it is, just try to keep the images at 450x600 or less. B Here's...

    Pic of the week --- Coral feeding

    Re: question mikey. The candy cane is the blurry coral in the foreground with all the polyps extended. In the back ground all the white circles are fan worms sticking out of the rockwork. B

    T5 lights

    They're no different from any other PC bulb. If you're keeping things that are low light, you'll probably be fine for a full year. If you are trying to keep things that have higher light needs, then you'll still need to change them out every 6-7 months. B

    How to frag?

    If I remember correctly www.garf.org used to have some fairly good frag info. I wouldn't reccomend buying anything from them, their rep isn't very good on this front. I tried to find the actual page that had the fragging info, but it seems their site is down right now. B

    Anyone know where I can get 7W PC bulbs?

    On accident I came across this site today...They've got 7w and 13w white and moon glow replacement bulbs. Just thought it might come in handy. I haven't seen the moon glow bulbs advertised anywhere else. http://www.pet-care-plus.com/dynamic/fi ... um2/30.htm

    imsuperjp's 10 G

    Why do you think the lighting is better in the cube than the 96w powerquad? Did you mod it? Is it just a color thing? The stock 48w it comes with certainly wouldn't qualify as 'better' in my opinion, but I will say that the actinic on the 96w powequad seems to be a bit less blue than the...

    what's up with avatars?

    It's one of the places I've thought about moving to when I get finished with school, but I doubt it'll happen. My wife really didn't care much for it she thought it was ugly...I can't really argue with her too much. I grew up in the desert, and there are parts of it I really like, but I can...

    what's up with avatars?

    Glad you got it to work. What part of Vegas do you live in. I lived there for about a year when I was 13. I think it was on the far west side. It's grown a bunch. When I was there I could literally jump the neighbors back yard fence and be in the desert. Nothing out past our subdivision...

    New canopy.

    Nope, no brains. I don't have enough light on that tank. I've got the two fish, a large pink tube anemone, and a few mushrooms. There's a HOB filter, and skimmer on the back of the tank, and 2 NO lights on it. I'll probably upgrade the lights by using one of the 65W PC fixtures I just pulled...

    help me please

    Re: i wonder... They've got 2 36w bulbs in it if I remember correctly. I didn't have time to really get a close look, so I don't know if they've got pre-installed fans or not. The one I saw was out of the box, but it wasn't set up with anything in it. B

    I got one Monday night that ate brine in the shop. I saw it go after food last night when I fed the tank, so hopefully my unlucky streak is over. :? B
