TODAY
I was unfortunatley greeted this morning by my skimmer pumping as much water as it could onto the floor , >:( . I had planned on a water change today so lucky I had some salt water mixing, not the right temp but it had to do . I also stripped the skimmer that I also planned to clean later today...
I was waiting to see the outcome before posting . Long story .
I had placed an order with Coral Fanatics and some of the zoo colonies did not travel well. This is really not the fault of the shipper but I called anyway . They were very understanding and gave me a fair credit for any future...
I saw this on another board and thought it would be fun to try it on our board . It is like "Dont Break The Chain" but with a twist . I would also like to get a "DBTC" started at another time. If this post is in the wrong forum ,mods please move it .
Heres how this will work . I will post a...
Looking to buy a few pounds of cured rubble sized rock . Really small pieces would be great,1"-2" . Will also take larger sizes if available, please let me know,Thanks Paul
I have been eyeing these for a while at a local store and was surprised they
lasted so long . They were not under the same lights as my system so I really did not know
how they would look . Needless to say I am very pleased . ;D
First picture is all lights,second is just actinics. My camera...
A few other reef clubs have started a program of trading corals called "Dont Break The Chain". I have talked to Phyl and we thought it could work and be great for this club .
The way it works is that a member "donates" a frag for free ,but with conditions to another member . The donating...
Under less lighting these were a brighter yellow,I have a few frags under the lower lighting that are returning to the original color . Its cool to see how lighting changes them .
That is why when you buy/trade for color you have to take into account your lighting compared to the lighting from...
This single zoa was found in a colony of faded out zoa's I bought hoping for a nice coloring up. This one looked different so I fraged it alone. Its outer ring is getting real yellow,center is becoming almost black with a mouth that was greenish and is now going yellow . I am happy the way it is...
I can use some id's please first was bought as unknown pally's I know there not pally's but dont have a clue. The take mysis and anything else that sticks on them.
second picture is this worm,sloppy green arrow points at it. It lives in my micro dendro colony and steals food. Stealing food...
Whenever I feed my tank my hermit crabs/thieves climb all over the corals stealing whatever morsels they can get greedy little claws on . The do this to all my corals instantly except the Dendro's. The Dendro's can have food hanging out of there mouths and the crabs walk right by like they cant...
I am having a heat issue . It's the time of year for me when my tank gets sunlight/heat but the rest of the house is not warm enough for ac. Actually house is a bit warm but I hate using ac (electricity bill is a killer) this early in the year. I bought a small fan. Should I place it to blow...
I decided to feed my dendro's a little larger chunk of food. These two heads tried to eat the same piece of food . In the sequence of photo's you can see the food inside the winners "belly" and then an after shot of the winner fully opened and flexing for the camera. Dont worry I feed the loser...
The larger and the one that was eating decided to jump the tank last night. Found him this morning . :'(I just hope the other starts eating soon and doesn't decide to see whats on the other side of the glass..
You have to love when loooking at some online coral store sites the blue eggcrate/sand in the background. I'm sure they only photoshopped the background and not the frag ::) ::) ::)
Picked up a beautiful pair of clowns today. Thanks for the great fish at a great club price.
P.S. Will you were right ,all my Tang needed was a few friends. ,He is now swimming all around and left the jawfish alone . He was actually hanging out inside there houses,fun to watch but was driving...
