Thanks for the good advice, Ed. I'm at a loss. I'm more confused now than when I started. Meanwhile, I found a home for my freshies. I filled the tank up with water and salt. I've got my aquaclear filter runnning for the moment just to get things circulating until I get a better filter...

Hmmmm.....got me thinking about that nice MH/PC idea. I want to do this right the first time, but within a reasonable budget. I'm going to take another look at that tek light. I can tell picking out the light is going to be the hardest part....arrrggghh. Karen

Here are my furry critters. Three cats, all male, all cool. The gray one is L'il Guy (aka: Tank, Big Fatness, Carpet Whale, Fatty Cat, Fat Gray Thing) and he is 15 years old - best cat you would ever meet. The fluffy one is Stinky (aka: Poopaloo, Skupleron) who is a 10-year old Ragdoll and is...

Oh fiiiiine.....I'll play too.... I am 36.9 years old and the CFO of a community bank in N. Wisconsin. Previously married and divorced, currently attached to a great guy, no kids of my own but Steve shares his with me, love all kinds of critters, and live in the best place in the world -...

JohnandDawn said John, I do remember the lighting on your tank. I liked how you had the different lighting over the clams. Your tanks are inspiring! Actually that does help. If I'm going to be able to keep most critters w/ VHO, then I'd rather go that route and spend less money...

It looks kinda like a freshwater silver arowana. Doubtful, but fits the description. ;-)

Nice tank! Those green zoas are stunning. I'm green with envy. :mrgreen:

That's an incredible photo of an incredible zoa collection! Frag me please??? Karen :shock:

I have a jawfish and it doesn't look like this. The jawfish has big shifty eyes, but not like those! :gcool

Thanks John! Would you define "very most light hungry critters"? Someday I would like to attempt an anemone again, and I want to make sure I have enough light for that. What about clams? Just looking down the road.... Karen

Hi all! I'm finally starting to get the feel for this reefkeeping thing and I've decided to convert my 29 AGA freshwater tank into a minireef. I want to do a better job than I did starting up my JBJ NC12DX and promise to research my livestock purchases beforehand this time. Really. What...

It's the least I could do since I bought the poor little booger "just to see" if I could keep a salty without killing it. I'm sooooo baaaaad.... He is a really neat little fish and was definitely worth saving. :mrgreen:

Success! I couldn't locate a small enough net, so I fashioned one out of pantihose and wire. :strip My BF and I spent a half hour trying to get that little booger and when I finally caught him I swear he jumped into the net just to end it all! After 3 days stuck back there he is no...

Well....he's still there. Last night after work I couldn't find anything at home that would work. I had to work again this morning, but checked him and he's still looking good hanging out back there! I will stop at the local bait store on my way home to see if they have a small enough net...

I like that idea! I'm going to try that as soon as I get home. :cool1: Thanks, Karen

Pretty small and a lot of mechanical stuff back there. My net won't fit. I was thinking of trying to suction him out with a turkey baster....and I'm only half kidding. :mrgreen:

Help! My blue/green damsel managed to find his way in to the right rear chamber of my Nanocube 12 DX. :opps It's pretty cramped in there, but he's still alive. Any suggestions?? Thanks, Karen

Your "after" pics made me downright choked up. Sorry for your losses. Karen :cryinga:

Hi Scott, I'm in N. Wis. and buy alot of my supplies and livestock from Foster & Smith's retail store in Rhinelander. If you are up north, you should check it out if you haven't already done so. There live rock is very nice and already cured, but you need to ask a salesperson to show it to...

It shows! I'm inspired. :maitre What is "GSP"? My clowns could use a friend.
