    Going back to college for Marine Biology Degree.

    I'm thinking about it. My schedule doesn't really allow me to go to class, but I was wondering if anyone knew of any online programs. Not sure if there are any but I wouldn't mind taking a class here and there .... I feel like i'm studying everyday anyway so why not get a degree from it.

    Yellow Coris Wrasse

    Yeah, and I don't have covers on my tank. I may cut up some eggcrate just incase.

    Yellow Coris Wrasse

    Just got one to take care of my feather duster problem. I read in the fish book that they will go after fan worms/feather dusters. Hope the book is right. So I acclmated him for 2 hours and I just put him in the tank. After about 1/10th of a lap he burried himself in the sand ... completely...

    Live rock covered in Aiptasia...

    Boil it, bake it, dry it out. Don't matter. If you like the shape then just kill it and it will "liven" up when you add it to your new set up.

    newbie question

    Sounds like you're doing pretty good. Are you thinking about doing corals? The angel wouldn't be good in a reef tank unless it was an SPS (small polyp stony) tank. But you have a potential reef if you ever get lighting. If you wanted to get rid of the Aquaclear and get a phosban reactor you...

    substrate for my tank.

    A. for me too. Would do B. for easier maintenance purposes but I like the look of sand too much.

    What about rock alone? Sorry I'm being a pain with all these questions.

    Any experiences with a flameback angel in a reef???

    Like you said, they are hit or miss. I don't have one but I have read that you should make it one of your last fish. They're very agressive and once it establishes itself it will harrass any fish that you add to the tank afterward.

    Dipping Corals

    So I won't have to treat my main tank with the interceptor... only the 58 gallon with the acros in it?

    need help: red bug and re-aqualscape

    Dave, I'm doing the same exact thing you're doing. Tagging along to see how it goes.

    Dipping Corals

    I want to put all corals in QT and then strip my tank down. I need to reaquascape and i'm using this as an opportunity to treat all my corals for anything that could be wrong. I noticed some zoas melting (maybe pox.. hence the furan-2) and I also noticed redbugs. I don't want to treat my tank...

    Dipping Corals

    Ok. Saltwater it is. Is there anything else I could treat with? Furan-2 for zoas?

    I think you're right ... this is why I posted this. I was ready to use RO tomorrow. :-[ RO treatment is for fish.. what was I thinking.

    Adding a copperband w/ current fishload

    Good idea Jonathan. I'll try that first. I've been eyeing a yellow coris wrasse. If they go after the dusters then that would be perfect.

    Dipping Corals

    OK... here's my plan for tomorrow. I'm gonna take a 2 five gallon buckets and fill them halfway with RO. I'll use the first one for dipping and the second one for rinsing. I'm gonna do 40drops of Lugol's, 2-3 drops of flatworm exit. Let them soak for 30 minutes. After that i'm gonna swish...
