    Welcome back everyone.

    We periodically pull them from the website as a current list of members. Not something you need to actively worry about. Thanks!

    Tank crash survivors

    Dr Mac. He does a lot of aquaculturing in his facility. Some of them purchase aquacultured corals and others will purchase corals from locals. I don't know of any that resell 100% aquacultured, but baby steps, right? ;D

    cyano in the sump - refugium

    If the nutrients are in your system, better the cyano in your sump than DT! I would tolerate it there until you did sufficient nutrient export to eliminate it all together. If your nutrients are low it might be the bulbs you're using over the sump may be making the most out of what little you...

    Thank you to all outgoing officers

    Thanks Taz, Arvind & Nick. We have worked (inconceivably) hard over the last 5 years for the enjoyment and education of the community. Your appreciation and support really mean the world to me. It makes all of the countless, seemingly thankless, hours feel so much more rewarding. It has been a...

    Happy birthday Tazmaniancowboy!

    Sounds like a perfect birthday to me! Glad it was a good one. Now where is that "beautiful day outside"? I could use one this weekend, though today got pretty close!

    Welcome back everyone.

    The email went out to the email list that we had from MACNA. It's possible that we hadn't picked up your email yet. Sorry! Unfortunately time didn't allow for a new list to be pulled. The Domain Registrar was having problems and we got caught up in it since our account was expiring. It was set...

    Stupid fish!!!

    Wow. I've only ever had one fish jump (up onto the cross brace). It was an angel that was really spooked. 3 or 4 fish jumping seems like a lot, especially when they aren't on the list of typical jumpers. Wonder if there's something going on that is chasing these fish out of the tank. What else...

    Stupid fish!!!

    I would steer away from adding more fish prone to jumping then!

    Stupid fish!!!

    We keep egg crate across the back of the tank (gap bewteen the hood and the tank) to make sure that fish don't accidentally jump out of the tank. Doesn't always stop them from doing something stupid (one jumped onto the cross brace and fried under the halides), but it helps the bulk of the fish...

    Tank crash survivors

    If EVERYONE takes less from the stores (that don't support aquaculture) then we WILL have an impact. We are who they are supplying and we need to encourage it with everyone we speak to (store owners alike). There are lots of opportunities for stores to carry aquacultured corals. We just need...

    Officer Elections Volunteers Needed

    The winners would all be in the polls for the elections. Most were uncontested with the exception of the DAL-Central, I believe.

    Officer Elections Volunteers Needed

    Congratulations to all the new officers. You have a great responsibility on your shoulders and a thankless job ahead of you. Don't ever let that get you down. The people who silently appreciate you far exceed the loud minority. This club, these members and our new leaders are capable of...

    PC or T5

    Don't do MH. You'll be better off with T5s.

    PC or T5

    Absolutely T5. I wouldn't purposely/knowingly put PC bulbs over any reef tank. Their short life span and dramatic spectrum shift make them unsuitable for our application. I have no idea why LFS recommend them at all.

    Jimroth's Big Ol' Tank

    Sorry for my mistake, I don't look at those (they're not obvious when you're scrolling through a thread). You're having great growth with yours! Much continued success with your colonies.
