Re: replies Thanks for the camera link. I've browsed their page nearly all the prices look really good. As for the nano cube deluxe. Most people are still modding them. 48w of pc light simply isn't that much light. You can still keep most soft corals, mushrooms, zoos, sun corals, even...

Mike, Can you, or your brother get the name of the system his friend is using. I'd like to do some research on it. $300 sounds like a lot, but over 2-3years it's easy to spend that much on chemical tests. Especially if you're testing for more than the basics. Pretty much the elite would...

There's a prism/viewing plate with a plastic cover, you put a couple drops on the plate, fold the cover down on it, point the prism end toward a light source and then look through the eyepiece. Very simple. I've read that hydrometers get progressively less accurate over time, and that it's...

Re: 70 gallon room dividing glass aquarium Ah...Cool...Very pretty tanks. Can you order them reef-ready, or with custom canopies that are higher to accomidate MH lights?

Honestly, I'd say go ahead and get a refractometer. They're much more accurate, and the prices have dropped enough that you can get one for $35-$50. B

LMAO....Just wait til I win a photo contest with a pic of something in your tank. j/k

It was likely just excreting waste. Many of the corals, anemones etc... Have one hole that they ingest and excrete from. Torches mouths are generally a hole somewhat in the center of the tentacles. B

Yep that is a really great shot. Congrats! I was just kicking myself cause nearly all my zoos are small frags and I knew i wasn't gonna be able to get that kind of pic. Good job guys!

Re: T-5 Thanks Mike. I might look into trying a couple of them after x-mas. I'd still be interested in the other sites you mentioned as well if you get a chance. B

Coral Beauty yellow clown goby (if hes a problem I donate him to LFS, cheap enough) Figi blue devil (maybe) cinnamon clown flashlight fish im good at making caves, my 10g has 3 big caves royal gramma tankbred, find an active one I'd actually gamble with the flame angel before I'd...

Re: Regarding 11 inch T-5 The only one's I see on this site that are short enough for my tank, are the standard model. These aren't HO bulbs, and from everything I've read T5 NO bulbs aren't really suitable for marine tanks. I'd definitely be interested in the links to other places if you...

Re: Nano Cube Deluxe Modification... Where did you find HO T5 lights that short? The shortest length I've managed to find them is 24W 22" ones. I'd be interested in upgrading my lights on my 6gal bowfront, but it's too narrow for anything I've found other than PC bulbs.

Well, originally I blamed it on the murderous coral banded shrimp I had. He may have been the main culprit for most of them. I originally had one pair. After about 3 months, one died. About 2 months later they came available at the LFS again, so I got 3, (cause one of the guys said he'd sell...

First I think the tank looks nice. I like the aquascaping, and I think the featherduster is beautiful. Second, I gotta go with SM here. Putting animals in a tank after only 5 days, even if you're using additives and cured LR isn't very responsible. The fact that you said you know you're...

I read the same info you've evidently got SM. I've put nearly 9 sexy shrimp in my main tank trying to maintain that 2-3 number, and I always end up with a lone single shrimp. I think the one I've got is some kinda homicidal maniac sexy shrimp. It's gotten to the point that when I come through...

Thanks guys. I do need to add a couple more comments. I forgot to address the green chromis and the black-cap basslet. I like both of these choices. The things to consider with them are the black-cap tends to be shy like royal grammas. As far as I know they aren't being tank-raised, so...

As DJconn mentioned I tend to keep more fish in my aquariums than most folks would. I think the number of fish you have would probably be ok in either size tank, with the size refugiums you mentioned. However I think you might want to rethink your mix. Flame Angle - Can be agressive...

Re: camera By all accounts that's one sweet camera. And you got a great price on it. Where did you find it for that price?

Nope. He had 3 blastos. Reddish-brown, bright green, and bright pink. All of them had areas that were toast. B
