    Worm like creature killed my clam

    If this worm indeed killed your clam, I'd try and capture it with the inverted bottle trick. Put some food (silverside perhaps) into a plastic bottle, put it in bottom, and wait for that thing to go in it. I would also like to see what that worm looks like, if at all possible. I have...

    It has arrived.............. OMG, this is scary

    Do it, Bill, do it! ;D I never thought I'd be quite so smitten with a coral the way I am with that one. In all honesty, to me it's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in water. It even glows under the normal lights. ;D Jonathan, get with Stan on that Appleberry. That's where I got mine...

    It has arrived.............. OMG, this is scary

    Thank you so much, Bax, Erna, James, and Jonathan. :) I really am in love with my new Elegance. She is doing beautifully so far, and has extended even more. So so pretty. Just farted around with the camera, trying to take some shots under my 1 Actinic and Blue Pluses. These didn't come out...

    30 Gallon Adventure: R

    You'll love your firefish, Ryan. I've had one since May or June of 07, and he's doing great. Mine never tried to jump. They will dart into a hiding place though when they feel threatened. The do it SO fast that your head will spin (hence the other name "dartfish") Please post pics tomorrow when...

    my first 55g SW Tank

    Brandon, how's the favia doing? I LOVE that anemone. Is it a rock 'nem? Great colors. How big is it? And how sticky? Is it vicious? (ok...enough questions)

    Should I bother raising pH?

    Nathan, where's your pH after the lights have been on for a good amount of time? Even I notice mine lower than I like, but I'm just drastic - I rip the window wide open for a couple of hours. I second Phyl's question: Are you allergic to house plants? ??? Even if it's just a leafy one, without...

    Help picking 4 T5 bulbs for my 65 gallon

    IMVHO Actinics aren't a "must". If you grow mostly LPS and zoos, and want that super pop, by all means knock yourself out with some Actinics.

    Re: Brian's 225g Monstrosity! BIG difference, Brian! I have to admit I chuckled when you said the sea hare may have gorged himself to death.

    It has arrived.............. OMG, this is scary

    LOLOLOLOLOL Too funny, Greg. So, how are you? ;D Thanks a million, Bax. Oh, and Bax, all the shrimp molted within 3 days of adding the iodine. My cleaner was a bit sluggish the first day after the treatment, but he was the first to molt and was fine afterwards.

    It has arrived.............. OMG, this is scary

    Nathan, I simply couldn't resist this one. It was all I ever hoped for, and then some. :) And no, I don't think I'll be trying the goni - at least not for a long while. Thank you very much, Mike. Greg, I basically emptied out the entire bottom right corner for her ;) She's got tons of room...

    It has arrived.............. OMG, this is scary

    Thank you all so much again. :) Well, the last treatment was made last Thursday, and I did an enormous water change Friday, and also added some Iodine. Guess what! ALL my shrimp made it through and continue to do well. I hope they don't mutate on me now. :-X Today I ventured out and brought a...

    algae bloom excitement

    Nathan, no, I don't drip Kalk. I use either B-Ionic or Tropic Marin Bio Calcium to up my dKh and CA. I was "going to drip" Kalk, but chickened out. :-[

    No way - MUCH too complicated, plus it requires multi-tasking. ;D
