Karn, No problem, I've been waiting to see somone build the JBJ picotope and at $40 dollars it seens like a great entry level deal.... Keep all of us posted.... MG

It would work on the Aquapods, but the JBJ line doesn't have a vent in the front that could easily be manipulated. MG

I only saw that skimmer on the outside of the tank. That won't work in a closed nanocube. The only type of skimmer that will work is the nano fussion skimmer, and I agree with you, that it's not that good. Stick with water changes or work on a sump that could yield you a skimmer on the...

Gina, Better to be safe than sorry, I would wait at least two more weeks and check the water parameters once more, if they are still all at zero, then you should be okay. Live sand, live rock and natural water are all great precusors of a fast cycle but, you never can be too careful in...

How about some pics of that skimmer in action, that would be nice. What size tank do you have the skimmer connected to? MG

Most zoos have a mind of their own. They are a good sign of some kind of water parameter going bad, when they don't open up. When all conditions are good, these guys will begin to multiply like crazy. Mike G

You can have the tank and the filter for $20 dollars, you pay for shipping.... I currently use the Coralife fixture for my refugium so I don't have that for sale.... You could purchase a brand new one in Texas.... Let me know if you want it.... Mike G

Now that is one bumping tank.... Great job.... One thing I'd like to see though, if you can... Can we get another picture of this beauty with your little bro on the side, it would be perfect, since it is his tank and all, he deserves the celebrity shot for us.... Thanks, MG

I have the pico down, it's been under my bed for 6 months. It's a all glass and curved in the front. Where do you live I can sell you the tank and the mini filter that fits it. They are still like new. Then you can build your own pico following my lead. Let me know if you are...

I went with the 50 watt stealth heater. It's +/- 1 degree and it's only 8 inches long. On top of that, it's black and made of hard plastic and not glass. It would conceal well in my nano tank.... Mike

The finnex looks great but it's +/- 2 degrees, that's a major distractor. The ebo-jagger is only +/- .5 degrees, that's better precision, especially in a 6 gallon tank. MG

Hey reefers, Can I get an opinion from all of you? What heater would you place in a six gallon nano? The Visitherm 25 watt or 50 watt. This is the black stealth heater. or They are the same price, I just don't know if I should get the 50 watt and there is more heat, as I...

Such a beautiful yellow!!!!!

You will need a heater regardless of the organism or it will premature the death of your critter.... Heaters are dirt cheap and you can get away with hiding it in such a small enclosure.... MG

DJ, It's been a while since I've seen a FTS, could I get a sneak peek on how it looks today? MG

Those grades merit a trip down to your favorite LFS for a nice frag... Good job.... One of my students came down to office hours and argued with me his B+ on his first essay... I gave him a couple of slices of pizza and calmned him down and he was okay with his grade... Man the pressures...

Okay come on, don't sing that song, I'm starting to get the willy's.... I hated that show,,,, sorry......

When I was small, I remember that show... And for some weird feeling that show made me feel uncomfortable... Bad psychology vibes going on..... MG

Jesse, So how are your water parameters? In particular I'm interested in your Nitrates and how long you have had you tank up and running? Mike G

Jesse, That clam is very beautiful, did you pick it up at Tongs? I like the variation of blue dots on the mantle. MG
