i've never done a bay tank, but i've put mussels, clams and oysters all in a couple different reef tanks and this has generally been my experience. i don't think there is enough of a food source in a reef tank to keep them long term, unless you have a pretty big and/or dirty tank. the exception...
i have no idea if its the right call or not, but nows the time to change the sand if you were considering it.
my only experience along these lines is buying a whole tank and contents, so i wasn't swapping out any rock or anything at all, but it was a big move of an established tank. it will...
ugh, get rid of the rock. and i hope i'm wrong, but if you have that many on one rock, i'd bet you have them elsewhere too.
i left them on check in a softie tank for a year or more. now i can't get rid of them. about 6 or 8 months ago i removed every rock i could and scraped everyone off i...
hi dave, what an incredible collection for corals at the best prices ever! i'd love to take a buttload of these, as i'm a budget reefer and i love what you are doing here.
i can do a pickup today between roughly 3 and 4:30pm, or pretty much anytime tomorrow. can i send a list of what i would...
my flame angel was a coral nibbler. seemed to leave the softies alone, but the lps and some sps were not safe. destroyed an acan in a couple days.
they may not all be like that, but i won't put a flame angel in another reef again.
just stumbled in here, your fish room is looking dynamite! my family would miss me if had that here at my place. glad to see the anemone has gone to such a luxury estate too, i still have two left that would be envious. i need to spend more time on these boards i guess, and fwiw, i'm not...
thanks fellas. everything is pending pick up today, except the gsp, lol.
wish i had the time, space and $$ for a frag system and could make stuff available for low cost. i think our hobby and market is underserved with budget options.
free curbside pick up in cherry hill.
enough to cover an area about the size of both of my hands. these are large polyps and very neon green. just a mat, not mounted in any way, but could easily be cut and mounted onto plugs or tiles.
some pics here...
gonna close this down as a trade and move some stuff to sell or free (gsp). keeping the flame angel for now, unless i can figure out how to get the nibbler out of there without removing everything.
a LARGE cluster of two pieces (still together) of sinularia is available. one piece i'd say is...
i would definitely rather trade than sell, so i'll give it a week or so, but if i can't find a good trade, i'll give you first crack at the flame.
i'm in cherry hill. a few minutes off of 295. i can also meet up at aquarium center in blackwood or tsm in sewell.
I'm determined to upgrade my softies tank to a mixed reef this years so I need to move some soft stuff out and some lps or beginner sps stuff in.
Sadly, the Flame Angel has to go. This one apparently has a taste for Acans, but has left all the softies, Duncans and a Chalice alone so far. Likes...
doug, thanks for the light and heater at such great prices! already used the heater for my latest water change and the light will be great for a large refugium!
doug, what is the spectrum on the build my led fixture?
doesn't really matter, but for $10 i'll take it!! i'm in cherry hill too.
i should be able to pick it up tomorrow or monday, weather permitting.
if it was totally frozen and just thawed to room temp, in something sealed, i doubt it would spoil overnight. i'd get it back in the freezer and at least re-thaw and sniff test it before trashing it.
some good ideas here. i've had 2 extended vacation disaster, both on a 10 gallon, so i am very interested in this topic. and currently without a reefer or even aquarist buddy to help when i'm away.
one idea that has crossed my mind and i may try when i go away this summer is to make a short...
