My guess is a sponge. Does it move....have eyes....have an opening? If it moves, I'm leaning towards a nudibranch.

If I'm not mistaken, I think the Pharos were an earlier version of the Hydras. Check this out: Fixing a Fathom LED Fixture

Fantastic picture. I'm not a seahorse person, but what seahorse is that?

Correct, light alone has no impact on pH.

Here's how light impacts pH.....light causes photosysthesis to occur and in the process the algae consumes carbon dioxide (to be used to make sugars and carbohydrates). The reduction in carbon dioxide from the water (carbonic acid), causes for a rise in pH. In the process, the plants product...

It would appear to be poison ivy. Poison ivy has mirrored leaves.....that is, drawing an imaginary line down the stem of the plant, the leaves on the right align with the leaves on the left, with the one top leaf. If you were closer, I'd come over with the plant killer (Roundup Off Patent...

Time accelerates as you age. Hopefully you're still moving slowly! :rolleyes: Happy Birthday Krista.

Not RIP, but RIB Lester! (Rest In my Belly) :rolleyes: :D

Large water changes are the way to go on a new tank. Use these chemical methods once you get your numbers way down.

Your concurrent rock cure appears to have dumped some major nitrates (and phosphates as well), into your water. Might wish to consider a number of large (50 %), water changes over the next couple weeks to get those numbers down before adding livestock.

Nope! Patience young grasshopper. :D

It must have been me! My little swimming guys in my bottom banner were also not there. However, once I cleared my cache and rebooted, I see it all. We've good. :D

Paul, your above picture link is bad.

I agree with @Mark_C ....I rarely vinegar soak my powerheads, only if they are covered with coralline. If your pump is stalling, it's the biological scum on the magnet/inner motor housing. Take it apart and using an old toothbrush, clean off that scum.

Hmmm! I believe they call them above ground pools! I might suggest stocking with kids, but you and your wife could also stock it and still have fun. :p:D:D:D:D:D

That is wild looking Paul! Nice job. Now don't go giving that you your grandchild as a nightlight. That would certainly give her nightmares. :ohnoes:

Funny you mentioned that....they just had a TV show about their renewed effort to capture pythons (I think Burmese) in Florida that they said were, in a big part, caused by Hurricane Andrew in 1992, when it wiped out a reptile center, causing 100's to be released into the wild. With the...

Also try a little garlic on the food....garlic is a food attractant for most fish. And although they might eat krill, it's not sufficient by itself.

What have you been feeding him? Try meaty food like table shrimp or clams.

Finally saw my first hummer last night while sitting out on the porch....around dusk. I don't think we have the population we use to have. I noticed no change in the nectar level as I changed it out about every week. Still not noticing any change.
