    Gonna be a big one!

    Hey Rich, what do you think this costs to make in parts alone? Where do you usually pick up such large pieces of plexiglass? Thanks, Carlo

    Plans for Refugiums

    Another thing you can do is get a couple thick (3/8 to 1/2" and about 1/4" wide) blocks of glass cut from scrap to use as "guides". You would use 4 total. 2 guides on each side. Then you can glue plexiglass across the tank inbetween the guides. Basically the guides keep the plexiglass from...

    Dominic might get the early bird, but Ed will end up winning the customer over and in the long run. ILC is going to put a hurting on AC unless Dominic changes his tune. Don't get me wrong. I've never had a bad encounter with Dominic and he has done some nice stuff for me like selling my corals...

    South Jersey

    Yea, I don't get the guy. He is very knowledgable but has a poor sense of "sales". He obviously can run the store fine or so it would appear, but it's the little things like giving 10% off to clubs and things of this nature that bring you way more traffic and earnings that he just doesn't get...

    South Jersey

    I used to go to the Aquarium Center all the time. Now I'd say only about 10% of my visits are to AC and that's only when In Living Color doesn't have what I'm looking for. I've talked with Domick (owner of AC) about doing a discount for club members and he didn't seem receptive to the idea. On...

    Anyone available on the 26th to help move a 125?

    I'm closing on my house on the 26th and purchased a used tank off a club member who lives in Princeton Junction. I'd like to know if anyone would be available to help me move it to Bordentown that evening. I hired movers to move everything in my apartment to my new house but would like to get...

    Deptford at the moment but I'm moving to Bordentown on the 26th.

    He's a couple of other pics of the fish from a vendor website. I still think Carpenter. I mainly say this because of the distinct blue/violet lateral lines through the body and on the fins. I've seen carpenters with black, blue and violet colored eyes so I'm not sure how important eye color is...

    Backup Power

    As long as needed. I keep a Mag2 running in my batch-mix tank all the time. I keep a lid on it so it doesn't get contaminated.

    The NEW In Living Color in Marlton!

    saltwater4life do you live in the Trenton area? I'm moving to Bordentown in 3 weeks so if you are in this area you can biggy back a ride with me anytime. Carlo

    Backup Power

    I'd highly doubt a 1430 is going to run a Mag pump for 36 hours. Have you ever tried pulling the plug on the UPS and let it run once all the way down to see what it will do in the real world? I better option might be to forego the big pump and hook up a couple of powerheads and airstones to the...

    Took a visit to Tropaquarium

    Is that near the Asbury Park area? Probably only a 30 minute ride or so from the new house across 195. Yep, I got NO room at all for corals in my present tanks. I did manage to squeeze in another 8 fish purchase this weekend however. I feel like a crack addict who couldn't get their "coral...

    That helps some. I still say it's a Carpenter's Flasher Wrasse. Maybe the wording on the tank was from another fish or something. I'm not a "wrasse" guy as I have none except a cleaner wrasse. Maybe some others who really know there wrasses could chime in here. How much was he do you remember...

    The NEW In Living Color in Marlton!

    Sound like you might need a big "salty" brother. :)

    My new additions today

    It's a little hard to tell from that angel but it looks more like a Carpenter's Flasher Wrasse to me. If you were thinking Solor Wrasse or Solar Fairy Wrasse they are just other names for the Clown Fairy Wrasse and it doesn't look like that. The Clown Fairy Wrasse is red (top and back fin)...

    More than 1 addiction

    What will make it even harder is that the tank will be filled when stacking the rock. I'm getting the rock straight (pretty much) from the ocean. It'll be shipped in water and I'm picking it up at the airport. I plan on having a few large rubermaid containers to use to spread the rock out in to...

    More than 1 addiction

    You hit the nail on the head. "get it in there" is going to be the biggest challenge of all. I'd love to go bigger yet but then you start getting into tank builds done on premises and I believe it's a whole nother price jump to get there. I will of course except any help that anyone is willing...

    Dive Certification (Express your interest in a class here)

    Hello Tom, Can you tell us what city the training would be done at? How many people would you need to give a group discount and what type of price would it be if enough people did it. Also what certification do you do? Thanks

    Anyone up for wrasses? let's see more!

    In a way they are ugly but it's so different looking that it's a cool fish. It's growing on me.
