Any LOST fas out here??
I never watched the show, but my best friend kept insisting I watch it...that was about 2 years ago....he gave me seasons 1-4 on Blu-Ray and once I started I couldn't stop!! I watched all 4 seasons in 1 month!! Last night, I just finished watching Season 5!! WTH!! I...
Does anyone share my feelings of irritation when you add a fish to your tank and then can't find it??
I added an orange spotted goby to my 180 on Monday....I was watching it for a while to see if it would find a home or pair with my pistol....I turned away for 5 seconds and now I haven't seen...
I have an Orange Clown Goby that was completely fine last night. Now today it's body from behind its gills to the beginning of the tapered section of his tail is swollen. That part of his body is discolored to the point that it looks like a white ball in its abdomen. I'm trying to get a picture...
I have 2 Chalk bass that have been acting very strange. Chasing each other, locking jaws, etc. and now one of them is pretty fat. I know that they are simultaneous hermaphrodites, and I know they are pelagic spawners and release the eggs into the water column. Any chances of breeding these...
After a bit over a year of research and reading tons and tons of material, on December 16, 2009 I decided to start vodka dosing my 180 Mixed Reef. Since I started I have had many people asking me questions about how it works and if I have seen any results. I will start this thread to record all...
I was in Petco in East Hanover last night looking for a 5 gallon tank. I never buy any livestock from there, but I always go and take a look at what they have. I was mortified by what I saw!! There was this Powder Brown Tang with the worst case of Ich ever!!
Also in this tank was a Coral...
I can't decide on whether I want to add a Bellus Angel or 3 Fiji Lyretail Anthias to my 180. I know I want to add them both, but which should I add first? Or better yet....which would YOU add first and why?
I have an AGA 180 that has a cracked bottom trim that I am looking to sell. $300 OBO.
The tank still holds water, although I'm not sure how long the trim will hold. It would be a great tank for reptiles!!
I'm thinking about experimenting with Vodka dosing. My phosphates read 0 with my Salifert kit, but we all know that isn't very reliable.
Is there anyone that has a Phosphate Photometer they would be willing to loan out? Maybe even a Nitrate Photometer too?
I'd like to really start this and log...
Does anyone have any experience with Brightwell's Microbacter7 or Zeo's Start2?
I have been doing research on both of these products and it seems that the use of either of these products is just to add bacteria to the tank. Is this similar to vodka dosing?? Vodka dosing is feeding the bacteria...
The impeller for my skimmer pump finally went. So it's been a week today that I haven't had my skimmer on. When I looked into my tank last night, there was incredible polyp extension!! I have a piece of some kind of SPS that never had extensiom...in this new tank it started to have some, but...
I'm trying to plan a budget for 2010 and when I chose the budget to use last years (09) figures....it comes up blank. Can I not do a budget for next year until the current year is over?
