    SHOULD I TREAT MY SEAHORSE WITH PARASITE CLEAR?

    If you are going to treat for worms and parasites it is best done in a separate system. Even after these procedures are done it is still a huge risk mixing wild and captive seahorses. Here is the procedure for treating your seahorse. Each medication should be used for 1 week before starting the...

    Collecting

    Those amphipods sound interesting. Gotta love them NY hermits, they can get big though. I have a bunch I collected down here. Have you seen any tropicals yet up that way? I haven't seen or heard of any coming in yet. I'm diving one of the local wrecks tomorrow so I'll see what is there...

    I caught a wild seahorse

    You do not want to buy a male to add to your tank unless you can find someone up this way selling wild caught ones. Mixing wild caught and captive bred specimens results in death for the captive bred ones 99% of the time. Wild caught seahorses are usually loaded with worms and pathogens that...

    Jersey shore fish & invert collecting.

    I own all my own gear. I was thinking of checking the tides and maybe hitting the basin at L street for a quick dive. Was gonna head back to the wreck this weekend but that will have to wait.

    Jersey shore fish & invert collecting.

    Not high at all considering it cost $95 to get on the dive boat. Divide that by a 2 pound lobster and it comes out to $47.50/pound so he's actually getting a break.

    Jersey shore fish & invert collecting.

    Actually the new regulation is a minimum of 3 3/8" and max of 5 1/4" carapace length. These guys fell in that slot perfectly. And tasted fantastic, without butter.

    LIGHTING THE REEF TANK WITH NATURAL LIGHT

    You can use a PAR meter to determine the amount of light being put into your tank. A few folks use solar tubes in their roof/ceiling to direct natural sunlight into their reef tanks. Then just supplement that with your choice of either T5's or halides for those cloudy days or just to add more...
