I went to my local Oriental market today (Route 18 in East Brunswick) to stock up on nori, since I was running low. They had re-done the store over, and everything was moved around. I asked four different employees where I could find nori, seaweed, sushi wrap….and no one spoke English. I...

My wife and I went to a comedy event this past week and the headliners were sort of hoo-hum. I don’t think I truly laughed once. Unbeknownst to us, Uncle Floyd came out and did about 30 minutes of belly-gut-laughing humor. Everything out of his mouth was hilarious. It takes quite a bit...

It would appear that the pump on my Tunze 9002 nano skimmer crapped out. I've got it soaking in vinegar right now to see if a cleaning will revive the little beast. If not, I've got to purchase another. Anyone have suggestions on were to pick up this replacement pump. It's a Tunze model...

This poll is for those of us who have a reef controller with a clock. Most of us need to change our clocks twice a year, alternating between Daylight Savings and Standard Time. How many of you change the time on your reef controller, or just leave it? And if you just leave it, is it left in...

How do you post a poll? When I go into “Post New Thread,” I see down at the bottom the choice of “Post a Poll,” and choosing number of options. When I click on this and put in my options, nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?

I have an older tank…set up in 2008. Haven’t put anything in it for some time. Pulled this out of the filter sock today. What is it? It is about 3/8 of an inch long with 3 brownish rings separated by 2 whitish rings. It has a proboscis like projection on the front. I’ve looked in my...

Ignorance is what makes a man a man….or at least this is true for me. I can’t get much more ignorant than I already am, so I thought. I’m in the process of switching over from Reef Crystals to Instant Ocean…or maybe a mix of the two. In this process I’ve been mixing up my new saltwater at...

When I use to dose manually, I used these quart bottles with the delivery spout on the top. Made measuring out very easy. They are actually B-Ionic bottles. Pick up in Sayreville.

Who is chomping on my Tangs! I have a Scopas with a Mohawk….he looks shark-like, with part of his dorsal fin chewed off. (Best picture I could get….he’s camera shy.) I also have a yellow with nipped dorsal and anal fins. (Tang policeTang PoliceTang police….I know a Scopas...

My wife shops every day! She has been on this kick that when she sees something “fish,” she buys it. Here is the latest purchase…..a wine stopper with a fish top. So what "fish" stuff do you have?

Anyone planning a DIY stand and wants two doors, I have them. I planned on using these on my stand, but went a different route. Each door will fit an approximate 25 ¾ to 26 inches high by 23 inches wide. Free…..pick-up in Sayreville

Thanks for hosting the meeting this month. What a great day to have this gathering outside in your magnificent back yard. More food than you can believe. You folks who weren’t there missed a good one…..I think 20 raffle items! Thanks again Bob (and wife and kid).

For the past two months my wife and I have been going nuts trying to identify the source of this musty, moldy smell in the fish room. It seemed to move for the tank area to the ice box, where I store fish tools on the top. I first thought it was a leak that was causing mold to grow. I...

I don’t know if this is “legal,” but Glass-Holes just sent me an email on a Friday the 13th sale they are having. If anyone is interested, here’s the poop: “Hello out there aquarium community. Just wanted to wish you all a happy Friday the 13th and tell you about our sale that is today only...

My wife is the consummate shopper….she should be, because she shops everyday. Here is her recent find…..fish motif paper plate holders. The flimsy paper plate goes in the center section while the outside ring holds your plastic beverage cup. You hold the tail to support your drink and...

I have one of the babies of my Large Hairy Mushroom for sale for $5.00. I have given this away in the past, where I’ve peeled them off the rock, and they have all died. I successfully got this guy off and mounted and living in my tank for the past two months, so that is why I’m selling...

Seahorsekeeper has won the “Moderator of the Month” award over on R2R. So we now have two celebrities amongst us….Jim and Krista. Congratulations Krista.

My wife bought me a little gift. Now I would normally model these for you, but I don’t want to be the cause of divorces when your wives see my Adonis like body modeling my new underwear. Dance :eek: :o :grin:

So here’s my latest lame-brained idea…..get rid of my refugium! I’ve recently started biopellets which will now handle all my nitrates and phosphates….some say too well. So with nitrates and phosphates taken care of, why do I need a refugium filled with chaetomorpha. Actually my chaeto...

The more you take, the freer it gets. I really need to get rid of a bunch of this, so come and get it. It will be fresh plucked.....no mounting.
