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.
Thanks for the update.
Those nimble nano cleaners are awesome, I have one too!
If I remember correctly I got my cleaner shrimp 2 weeks after my CuC. Be sure to still conduct tests once a week leading up to his purchase. After that I would try a small zoa frag or something. I waited a long time...
Hey Merv Rubiano. Yeah I been on EVONY for a long long time. Still a moderator over there but not involved in too many meets cause everytime I see new parts I have to buy! Not good since im planning a wedding and a home purchase.
Thanks for the compliment on the tank. It's fully stocked now. I...
While I have a NC and not a AP this is how my chambers are setup.
Chamber 1 - purigen, phospad, 1 sponge, temp probe
Chamber 2 - refugium
Chamber 3 - heater and pump
As far as water changes I do 2g every week. I have not missed a week in the whole year the tank has been running.
Nice 'scape and feather duster you got there.
As for snails http://aquaticisland.com/ used to have free clean up crews (you pay the $20 shipping) that had 20 nass, 15 cerith, 3 margarita and about 12 hermits. I split the order in half with another local guy and it was perfect. Now it looks like...
Thanks for the kind words. I tried to do my chronology much like steelhlr back on nanoreef (a thread I used for guidance http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=54602&hl=). In the future it can serve as pathway for others in setting up their nano's.
It's not as close as it looks. I can get a nimble nano magnet to 100% of my glass without moving anything.
It was doing better in its last location. It was where the cap is now. I'll move it back next week probably.
Will do, I got my fingers crossed. Im at 6wpg now but I know they like...
Now onto the new additions.
New Orange Monti Cap.
New Mean Green Zoa in the back. Unknown zoo in front.
Another unknown new zoa. Ill call it “fleck” for now.
New zoo colony on Tonga Branch. These were sold as gumball. They are a deep maroon with a pink ring and purple mouth. It maybe...
I’m going to do two separate posts here.
1st will be updates on current corals and the 2nd will be the new additions.
Here are the old corals. Tank is now 1 year old.
6-month-old candy cane splitting heads.
Dying Hydnophora. It was relocated here for better light. It’s now dying from the...
Going back to your aquamend question I never used the one shown above.
Id only use something that says reef safe. I went with:
They have a lot of great products. I would reccomend getting the kit they sell. I first bought the glue, then realized a few weeks later how much the epoxy and plug...

I wont hijack this thread. Ill post something seperate here for you both here: http://www.njreefers.org/joomla/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=26&topic=4629.0
Had a request for it in another thread so here goes how I went about mine.
I used this light here:

Here is a picture of the light itself and the box it came in:
I planned to attach the light to the back of the tank with velcro...
He sounds like a patient guy and will do whats right. Just keep monitoring your paramaters. In the meantime if your getting antsy why dont you think about if/how you would do a little fuge. I'm running one in the middle chamber of my NanoCube, maybe you can do the same with the AP.
If you want...
