    Newbie lighting

    I'd suggest going with pc's until you've spent more time researching and shopping for different corals. You'll be able to keep quite a bit under the pc's and be enjoying the tank for less expense. You can always upgrade to MH later if you decide you want to keep clams, or SPS. From everything...

    Custom glass tank in the Houston area?

    There's a company out of Pasadena that builds tanks. I don't remember the name, but John over at Global sent my 75 oceanic to them to have the huge center brace removed and strips of glass put around the inside edge to make it a eurobraced tank. It took about a month, but it only cost $30...

    Finding a clownfish pair in a community tank

    Since clowns are sexless, it doesn't really matter. If they're the same species and one is bigger than the other the larger one will change it's sex to female, the smaller one will be male. Sometimes in the tanks at the LFS if the tank isn't super crowded you can watch and see a couple...

    What I Use

    A year ago I researched digitals within my budget and came up with two top runners. The olympus 5050, and the nikon 5700. I did some further research on underwater housings for both cameras and ended up getting the 5050 because the UW housing which is actually made by olympus, was about $600...

    Fish/Shrimp MIA

    Don't know if it could be the Sauron or not. I've heard bad things about them though. One of the LFS owner/managers sometimes gets them, and marks them NOT REEF SAFE....I asked if it would eat corals, and they said they haven't seen them do that, but that they'd be real likely to take out the...

    Pics of my 3 current tanks.

    I think he died of old age. The species I had only last 8 months to a year in captivity, maybe another month or two in the wild. Most of the ones that hobbyists can keep have about the same lifespan. If you really went nuts and got a huge tank and put it on a chiller to keep the temp about...

    Pics of my 3 current tanks.

    This one is my 10 gal nano. It's about to be broken down. The seahorse is no longer in it, instead there's two dwarf lions and a honey damsel. I think they need a little more room, so I'm going to set up a 25 for them after I move. Until I do they're going into the 40gal. I've got...

    Help locating info on fish veterinarians for my new Website

    I've got a friend that's a vet. I asked her about it, and she basically said there's no such things as a fish-vets. Marine biologists are the ones that take care of the big critters at sea-world, etc... Sometimes they do work with vets that have specialized equipment like my friend, (who does...

    Coral ID

    Did you get it from Village? I saw a piece there on Saturday that looked very similar. Andy from Fish Land has some similar looking stuff in one of his tanks, and said it's some kind of macro-algea, but typical of Andy, couldn't tell me the name or anything else about it. :) In a year and...

    djconn's 20 gallon pics - Image intensive!

    These are pics of my crocea. Although many people believe you need MH lights for them, I haven't had any problems with mine under 130w pc smartlights. In fact since it's on the far edge of the tank, it's really only under one 65w light. I simply placed the clam at the top of the tank. It's...
