I needed an "upper" and decided to treat myself .... :-[ Here's what I picked up: My very first Australian Acan And a HUGE Orange Crush Acan --- Wendy

Just wanted to share some pictures of some of my new(er) corals, one of my Purple Nana, and a FTS. :) Thanks for looking. Pink Birdnest Monti (don't know which type, but I like it) Roscoe's Purple Nana And lastly the entire tank --- Wendy

On Monday we had to say our final farewell to our beloved Simon. In November we had a mass removed, which we (wanted to) believed to be yet another sebaceous cyst. It wasn’t so this time. The growth returned quickly and viciously, only 2 weeks after having the stitches removed. The day after...

Since I'm having Christmas at our house this year, but only 3 family members are coming, I decided to go a totally different route food-wise than usual. As you all know, I'm from Germany, and have yet to cook a somewhat authentic German meal for my extended family. Well this year I'll give it a...

So I had nothing better to do this afternoon than to take pictures and compare them to older ones. Why not share them, right? There will be quite a few pictures (many of which stink because I'm still learning to take better pictures :-[) I'll try and go in somewhat of an order from the ones...

How about we all share our favorite Holiday songs? Here are 3 of mine. "The Prayer" (Celine Dion & Andrea Bocelli) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=db1-IlnW2YY "Believe" (Josh Groban) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDoRPbsfJE0 "Wizards in Winter (Trans-Siberian Orchestra)...

I should have never EVER looked at chalices. Seriously. But because of what I saw, I have a new "must have" list now. :-[ So today I bought my very first chalice frag. Here it is. It's an LE Psychedelic Chalice. And I LOVE IT! This baby came from Tom, and honestly, the picture doesn't do it...

I was NOT going to buy a Derasa Clam. Seriously! I have been looking for a Squamosa for a while. Honestly, I have. But...when I saw this Derasa yesterday my heart sank and my wallet opened. :-[ Meet yet another "new" baby. But this is it. I'm done! My tank is full. Here it is again, next...

Did a BIG FAT no no today and spontaneously picked up the fish below because I just knew he was mislabeled, and the price was laughable at best ($15.99) :D He was labeled as "Canary Blenny", which I'm pretty sure he isn't because of the black stripe. Could this be a "Bundoon Blenny?" ??? He...

When my actinics came on in my tank this morning I nearly choked up. My baby Maxima was gone! :o The only thing remaining was some pretty yucky looking stuff. I probably should have never picked up a 1" Maxima to begin with, especially since I've read that their survival rate isn't all that good...

I was looking through the WTS thread here, and suddenly felt inspired by a picture - or should I say I felt "daring"? Anyway, I decided to remove the background to see whether I like it. I LOVE IT! Here are a couple of pictures. WITH background Without My tank has quite some...

Good morning friends, This is probably a dumb question, but I can't figure out what the difference is between a regular skimmer and a recirculating skimmer. I am currently using the Octopus NW200. If I were to ever upgrade to a larger tank, how big of a tank do you think my skimmer can handle...

Hi everyone, As most of you know, my mom passed away last week. Even though it wasn't completely unexpected, one can never quite be ready for news like this. On Tuesday I took my older Bernese Mountain Dog (Simon) to the vet because another one of his sebaceous cysts had ruptured. He's been...

...other than my photo-taking skills. :-[ This is what I saw when the main lights came on: Upon closer inspection :o Now I know that's not normal, but what would obsess either the crab or the trumpet to get into it with each other? --- Wendy

For those Daughtry fans out there: The band (Chris Daughtry) is coming to the Ritacco Center in Toms River on Friday, December 7th, at 7PM. ;D --- Wendy

When I saw my first tiny bristleworm many months ago it didn't bother me much since I read that they are harmless when small. Last night I saw 2 rather big ones, my guess would be around 6" or so when fully stretched out. This morning one of the big ones was still out, and I tried grabbing him...

Some months ago I bought a fancy Toadstool, which has quickly more than quadrupled in size. :o I would like to know how to frag it/cut it. Can anyone please help me out? Thanks so much. --- Wendy

Yesterday I bought some Acro frags from a fellow reefer, but unfortunately he didn't remember what this one was called. Can anybody help me identify it, please? Thanks so much in advance. --- Wendy

So I've been playing with my cheap <insert explicit> camera and wanted to share some pictures. My tank's doing great, I love it so much. First a whole tank shot: Blue Milli (picture taken from above) Green Milli (picture taken from above) More Milli pictures (Green, Rose & Blue) Yes, I...

Hi everyone, As many of you know, I've been busy rehabilitating 2 Blue Jay babies since July 4th. I thought it would be nice to post some pictures, so everyone can see how "my" babies are doing. ;D Here's a picture taken 7-7-07, 3 days after the rescue. They were estimated to be between 2-3...
