That's very cool ReneeRN. Got to get some more info on it. :) Carlo

I'm in the process of getting everything ready for the Frag Swap that I plan to bring to sell. I won't be bring everything so if you want anything from ReefComplete.com you can pre-order it and I'll bring it on Saturday (no shipping charges obviously). You can/should order directly on the site...

You'll never guess what I did today. A highly unusual event for me. I did a water change on my reef. Didn't start out that way however. I've been lazy and haven't ran the PVC from my stingray tank into the basement. So today I finally decided to hook it up correctly. Short story version, I...

I'm going to go through some articles from "The Great Temperature Debate" http://www.reefs.org/library/article/reef_temperature.html and list some of them here that I think is worthy of reading. WARNING posts can be long. Ron Shimek The tank is reaching about 88 degrees in the apex of the...

I've never had one but have been drawn to them lately. Anyone here have one? If so how does it do in your reef? Does it pick at your LPS or mostly just eat the coralline algae and sponges (if you have any)? How does it get along with your other fish? Any problems with Angel, Butterfly or...

IMPORTANT READ FOR RO/DI USERS - long but important! As many of your know I've been working on a salt mixture and had sent results out to be tested to see how they match my meter and testing. They tested for more then typical salt elements and I found something troubling. After investigating...

I've been studying salt mixes pretty in depth for the last year. As many of you know I purchase many chemicals in bulk and turn around and wholesale these to different stores. I also formulate different additives. For those that didn't know this I guess you do now. I don't sell retail (yet) so...

This is a topic for debate. If you don't like debates or long messages/thread please skip this thread. :) Please be respectful in your comments and try and stick to facts. I have been studying different types of lighting and the one I want to "pick on" which seems more of a gimmick then...

Hello everyone, I'm looking for a few beta testers of a "product" I've been working on. This is actually the first of several things/projects that I'm looking for beta testers. To the best of my knowledge there is no product of it's kind on the market. I don't want to go into details before...

Not bad, but for less then $25 locally you can get the pump, timer, tubing and valve. Almost everyone has a bucket laying around and many will already have a valve, tubing & timer laying around and will only need to buy the cheap $10 pump. BTW, I'm not saying this is the best way to go, just a...

Just trying to feel out the waters here. How many people would be interested in learning/mastering tank shooting with their digital camera? If enough people were interested maybe we could work it into an upcoming meeting as a class. We surely have some good tank photographers in our group who...

Every once in a while you see someone with a wtb thread for some type of rare or highly sought after coral or frag. I'm curious, what do you guys think are the most sought after corals (SPS,LPS,Zoo,softies) for our aquariums? If you have a pic of one or a link to the coral could you post it, if...

Curious, how many of you have lion fish? Do you ever stick your hand in the tank or do you use "tongs" or heavy/thick gloves when working in the tank? I spaced off tonight (drinking some crown royal) and went to move a couple of rocks around and felt something on the top of my hand. I'm more...

This is geared more toward people with larger systems but any input is welcome. I'm just wondering how you guys and gals are handling your drains if you have a refugium inline. Do you for example dump all water into the refugium then to skimmer and then to sump or split half to refugium and the...

Anyone know of any local fish store near Bordentown? Any store a little further away that I should make a trip to that I previously wouldn't have went to being further down then the Phila area? The closest stores I've found so far is All Aqautics (only a few minutes away) and of course the 3...

Talk about bad luck. I have to be out of my apartment no later then 3/18 (this sunday) but will not do closing on my house until 3/26. I've got a kennel lined up for the dog and I of course can stay at a hotel for the week or so BUT the fish tank is a whole other story. It appears the tank...

I'm closing on my house on the 26th and purchased a used tank off a club member who lives in Princeton Junction. I'd like to know if anyone would be available to help me move it to Bordentown that evening. I hired movers to move everything in my apartment to my new house but would like to get...

I got the urge at the meeting this past weekend to pick up a decent digital camera. Using the 2mega pixal camera on my cell phone just doesn't cut it. :) I have a few film based cameras and usually use either a 35mm or 50mm. I'd really like to take some shots of my tank and also have a good all...

If anyone is interested in getting together before the 1pm meeting at Billy's house let me know. I live in Deptford near the mall which is right off Rt 55 and Rt 42. I'm easily less then 5 minutes away from Rt 55, 42 and 295. I'm 10 minutes or so from Cherry Hill so if you are coming north for...

How much food and nutrients? I originally posted this on reefcentral but didn't get any responses except that the bio load is heavy. I'm quite aware of this fact and I'm also quite aware of what excess food does to your nitrates and phosphates, etc... So I don't want this to become a...
