Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
I have a 8 inch Orange Monti Cap that for a long time had that nice white edge indicating that it was growing. After switching to LED from T5's after a few months I noticed the white edge went away and eventually the edge became more jagged in some areas. The color is still good, the plate...
I have a 4 year old 46g bow front w/ CPR Aquafuge2 Large (4.7 gallons) and marine pure brick. No sump
My tank is a mixture of LPS, Plating Montis, and an RBTA. My rock work has a few caves, but not a ton of rock that the added fish could solely own one territory.
I have an Adult Dwarf...
I currently have a 36" Current USA Nova Extreme Pro T5HO (6 bulb) that is old and dusty and making me nervous that it will catch fire at some point. I've been looking into LED's and came across this light while looking for cheaper alternatives that don't look like crap. I really don't know much...
I have a HOB refugium and HOB Skimmer that have algae coating the returns to the tank. Does leaving it there act as mini Algae Scrubbers or am I way off base and should remove it as it looks bad and smells a little?
So I originally had a Maxspect 130 gyre and I loved it, but it had wiring issues and it broke. Since then I was just using my old Koralia 3's and my corals weren't nearly as happy. I eventually bought this IceCap gyre and it was much larger and powerful than the Maxspect. I am having a heck of a...
I don't know if this is visible or not but about 2 months ago I noticed one of my hermit shells had a reddish orange substance growing inside it. It proceeded to expand until it was breaking the shell apart. About a month later I noticed one of my rocks had the same stuff growing on it and it...
I recently picked up an orange monti cap from a fellow member and I think It really adds an awesome color to my mostly barren tank. If anyone has any other colors please let me know.
seriously I know this company is german or spanish or something, but I can't understand their english directions either. What do they mean by...

I'm having some issues with invertebrates dying and after doing the standard water tests from a master kit and checking for stray voltage I am still stumped other than the idea of copper being in the water. I use our sink water (in New Brunswick) filtered through a 6 stage RO/DI and I usually...
I have been looking for zoas for a while but most LFS I go to just have brownish ones. Maybe it's because they are gone by Saturday, I am not sure. Any particular locals spots usually have a nice colorful selection?
It is a 65g 48"x18"x17x glass tank that was used to hold plants as a terrium.
This would be used as a sump or QT for the future and the price was $40 bucks so it is hard to turn down. What do you experts think?
Being new to the site for just a few months now I haven't gotten a complete grasp on all the members yet so I was wondering for my benefit and all the members benefits if there were certain members we would consider "experts" in a certain category that we all could pick their brains on that...
On my 100 day old 46g bow I Currently have my PhosBan Reactor going with the amount recommended for 50gals. I have a small media bag with carbon and a little phosphate in my preskimmer box return. I am tempted to add this other phosphate removal stuff into my eheim 2213 canister filter. What do...
wouldn't this make everything a lot easier if we had our location listed under our user name like I have seen on many sites. It would make it easier for mods who have to keep telling people in the For Sale thread to add their location. I know I would like to know what users live close to me, it...
Maybe its because I am new to reefing, maybe I just haven't seen the right ones, but I just don't understand why people like SPS. To me they don't do anything but stand there like a craft that you could make out of Playdough. I understand that there are some nice colors and they are easy to...
Well I went today. I got up at 6:45 and drove 2hrs 20 mins and got there at 9:20am. By 9:45 all the 120g and 150g Perfecto tanks for $1 per gallon were sold.
Outside under the tent they had many used, slightly damaged, etc tanks and stands and the were mostly spoken for by 10am. Under the tent...
After seeing about 4 people gathered at Aquatic Obsessions last weekend, I figured people made group trips quite often. Anyone meeting up at any of the stores this weekend? I am girlfriend free tomorrow and ready to explore some more stores. I was thinking of going up North to the stores in the...
