    My coco worm is still there--he just got rid of his crowns, but I saw him lurking a couple hours ago in the tube trying to clean his tube...coco worms are really ugly without their crowns. I think mine is starting to get old lol...I've read that their lifespan isn't that long...and I've had...

    blindskater02, the 2 tanks were made by Clear For Life, a 10g show and a 20g regular, but the plumbing was custom. I can ask him if he'd be available to plumb one for you if you're interested, he's in West L.A. I got a new pink yuma...it's in the shade acclimating to the tank...probably...

    72 Oceanic Reef Ready Bow Front Evolution...

    I bought the Canon 350d (Rebel XT), I decided against the 20d after doing more homework--the extra features aren't necessary for my purpose. I bought the JBJ ATO and so far it is working well and was easy to set up--it beeps when the pumps are on so if you want to turn it off it's just a cut...

    72 Oceanic Reef Ready Bow Front Evolution...

    Ahh, if you have a chiller a reefkeeper's totally worth it...otherwise it's such crap...totally missed that part though. But anyway--I am in the process of buying a new digital camera, I just can't decide between the Canon Rebel XT (350d) or the Canon 20d...once I make up my mind and get it I...

    72 Oceanic Reef Ready Bow Front Evolution...

    Oh, and yes I have a Quiet 3000 (the pump Master Er is speaking of), I swear by it--it's quieter than my skimmer and I can count on it for all of the flow in my tank without any problems. 3 Maxijets will exude about 60 watts of heat (20w each), 1 Quiet 3000 exudes about 40 watts.

    Hey Mike, I just saw how you have all your stuff plugged and just wanted to let you know what I did to my tank today that you might be interested in. I did this with my computer--figured I'd do it for my tank too...but generally, whenever I feed I have to turn off the pumps--or when I have...

    Deep Sand Bed...

    Hello Mike, Steven called this post to my attention and asked for my input...I actually like sand, I love how natural it looks, but there are pros and cons to having a DSB. In theory...DSB is very beneficial because like a plenum, it develops a type of bacteria (anaerobic) that consumes...

    Thanks...I sold it to imareefer from NR for $350...added stuffs too like both 2 pumps, Rio 80 (I think or a 60), minijet 606, the chaeto...live sand (I used brand new sand for this tank)...the marineland POS heater and brand new sponges, the ceramic rings and all the other junk....I paid around...

    LOL--yeah lighting is really iffy. I really love the Phoenix's because it's not very blue...they're like xenon lighting--it's SO WHITE that it's crossing over to blue. I am considering selling my acans if you're interested, I'm gonna keep a couple of them but I want more sand space for my...

    Thanks guys. I'm not a big fan of actinic--actually I'm planning on modding my hood...swapping out the Actinics for T5's instead and will overall have a less blue look. pics are always taken with halides only because I just don't like actinics =P...

    Hey guys, I had my 12g nano cube sold--upgraded to a Clear For Life 20g setup with a 10g sump. Tigahboy from Nano Reef planned it and plumbed it for me...I just gave him my space restrictions (has to fit within a 24x26 area). here are the preliminary photos...

    Blastomussa...

    Yeah I'll post it here on Nano Tank. Tigah plumbed it for me and planned everything, I just gave him my space restrictions LOL. Just got my new blastos, love them! Look exactly as the picture...I don't have a chiller, my tank runs at 84 with only a 1 degree variation through a 24 hour...

    Blastos should be fed just like acans--they are meat eaters. I feed mine cyclopeez and mysis once a week to make them fatten up good. My biggest lesson and most expensive lesson learned was $200 hot pink yuma--one even brighter and more vibrant than Tigah's...and it melted. I found out that...

    buying online fish/corals

    So far, everything I've ordered online has been great--but that's all because I ask around for vendor reputation. But when it's instances like eBay...I've NEVER had a problem...all my experiences from ordering online have been pleasant. I wouldn't worry too much...there's only one vendor I...

    Mike you're too funny! I never stomped on Chris for never giving me an rbaby signature cube! LOL...but anyway--I'm very happy with my tank upgrade, I should post pics on NT, it's going so well. I heard great things about Joleen...and blah on a yuma! I bought a $200 pink yuma that died so...

    Blastomussa...

    Yeap...they also have a habit of blasting their corals with actinics in the pic tank...which is why I always usually hesitate to buy anything from them. The only person I deal with there is Joleen--she always takes care of me and I haven't been displeased. But yeah, regarding the pic-taking...
