The main impetus was the fact that I got some berghia that I was afraid he'd pick off. I also wanted to let the pod population grow so that I could get a mandarin.

Unfortunately already brought it to Reefco. Probably $100 now.

Just pulled him out of my tank so that the pods can grow. Mellow fish and very pretty. Pickup only in Warren. Free to a good home. otherwise he's getting dropped off at a store today.

Considering a break from the hobby down the line and would like to start putting feelers out to find one or both of my eels a nice new home. Right now they're comfortably together in a 180. The yellow edged is in the rocks a lot, but often peeks out. The Tesselata is usually out at least 40%...

As long as you stick to smaller emeralds they're pretty solid in my experience. The larger male ones are a big risk, though.

I've got one if you're not too far from Warren.

Smaller emeralds are fine. But I wouldn't put a large male one in a tank with any small fish. I've watched them try to grab fish. There is no doubt in my mind they're sometimes successful at night.

Not in NJ, but as of Sunday Advanced Marine has a really nice Regal and KHC has a Scribbled.

Sorry to hear that. Happy I decided I wasn't in a rush to do this one before my vacation. One of my Cor pumps never would turn off/on from Apex even though it was completely controllable otherwise until the last update when it finally started behaving and responding to feed cycles and toggle...

That is two separate codes to run the feeder and pump independently from their own Apex outlets.

180 with loads of fish. And I use Avast's freeze dried mix.

The issue with this is that you really want the circulation pump to run longer than the feeder. Otherwise you'll end up with dry food in the mixing chamber just sitting until the next feeding. I have mine setup with the circulation pump on 24/7 to make things a little easier. Here is my Apex...

Man, I just gave away a reef abalone that could have helped you. Have you tried to find a sea hare? If you do decide to toss in the towel send me your number, I might be interested in the fish. Where are you located?

The higher it sits as in you should be using the lowest bracket slots to raise the unit higher. Hard to be 100% sure from the angle, but I'm pretty sure you're using the higher ones, which makes it sit lower. Here are pics of my two of my units for reference and my third which is on an egg...

Very nice. One tip though... mount the Clarisea higher. It looks possible. Ideally completely out of the water on the highest mount setting if you can. The higher it is the more effective it will be and the rolls will last much longer.
