We have got to ask one of the mods to move this discussion somewhere else. But, in spirit of ongoing conversation: ... I have read that brine shrimp actually has minimal nutritional value, the corals might have it, but they are not getting much out of it. Alternatives are: 1. Feeding baby...

... Nice to know we are in able hands, hope you and I never have to lock horns at the auction site :) ... Edward, could I bug you a bit about acan care? As of now I am feeding them phyto and oyster eggs which they readily devour. I will have my food lab ready soon, where I would grow my own...

Is there anyway you would be able to measure the PAR reading when this is done? Keeping a close tab on proceedings ...

I got a bigger chunk as part of the original sale. It is really big and green would have about 50+ eyes and doing pretty good in my tank. Joe's an awesome person to deal with ... (and actually inspired me to get my own 90G)

I have been really looking intently at the option of lighting my tank with LED. If not the MH, I intend to use them for VHO T5 supplements. If a bunch of us like Senile1's design and the PAR values, could we do a group work shop under his tutelage (given that he is OK with it) to create our own...

Has anyone ever tried to use these for their planted refugiums ? http://www.amazon.com/Miracle-LED-Grow-Light-Equivalent/dp/B002NGKITW/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1254889457&sr=8-2

This does not have the usual reefer substrates but does have a "Sand". I have forgotten how much sand I have used on my 40. Can some one verify if the numbers provided are close to real numbers ? http://areamulchandsoils.com/product_calculator.html

..thats what I knew ... but my knowledge is theoritical and Mr. X has a thriving population. So I decided to cork up.

You can check http://www.nyaquatic.com/servlet/StoreFront. ...Looks like they dont have it at present but they usually have it for $24. ... and $12 for a first time buyer .... Call the guy and he would help out.

I would like to be in the group buy if it materialises.

well .. in my case its not much dirty though ... but I dont want to get a sand sifting star and risk them cleaning up my bactertia population. My nassarius snails do get all exited when the sand is chruned(I have no idea if that actually means that they are consuming some polutant though). I...

What protection do you have in the tanks with a cuke ? Do you use mesh to cover the powerheads and pump intakes? If so what mesh do you use ? I plan on getting a cucumber this Tuesday.

I recently got the following sand. http://cgi.ebay.com/45LB-WHITE-FIJI-AQUACULTURED-LIVE-SAND-ROTIFERS-1_W0QQitemZ250491184058QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item3a527023ba&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14, that I used for my decoupled mangrove refugium. The item is exactly as described and...

Could I keep a couple of upside down jellys in 46G species tank? I am thinking of getting them from reefscavengers. Here's the info from their website: http://reefscavengers.com/upsidedownjelly.html Let me know if anyone has had any experience with these.

Hi mando reefs .. is this your first reef? If so, then I would strongly advise you to start afresh with a bigger tank (atleast 20G, or more). You get tank deals all the time if you look around, and larger tanks are much less susceptible to sudden changes in water chemistry. Operating cost also...

Just like mnat said: As with everything else fish, coral, LCD TV, DSLR camera... Do plenty of research on what the new addition would bring to the table. Then find out if that fits in your general scheme of things. If it does, look for the best deal ... Price and word of mouth should not be the...

But why do we not have the Tank of the month??? ... Instead of just a panel of judges we could have mix of rotating panel of senior reefers who look at the give a critical opinion (that does have weight) and some randomly selected members who give their non-technical opinion about what they...

I have the BH 1000. The skimmer has a major advantage that the pump is outside water and doesnt add heat. Unfortunately it is also a big disadvantage, since no matter what I do the thing leaks (really slightly though) at the junction of the pump (I had to arrange my setup so that it drips on my...

... The aroma in your fish-room or kitchen once you are done pulverising the contents ... Priceless. This of course is more of a personal peeve since I come from a freshwater fish eating culture.
