Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Chances are, your membership subscription was setup as an automatically recurring payment on a yearly basis through PayPal, unless you paid for it at a meeting via cash or check. However, it's come to our attention that some of these recurring payment subscriptions were interrupted without the...
A couple months ago, I got a good deal on a 120g tank/stand which was the perfect size I was looking for. My current 75g tank is 48x18x21 and it's displayed right next to a half-wall, between the family room and the dining room. As such, it's viewable on 3 sides and the single corner overflow is...
My nephews have come up with a really great idea for a phone app and they asked me if I knew anyone who could develop it for them. They've even done all the artwork for the features of the app... they just need help on the programming.
If anyone can help or knows someone who can, please reply...
Just thought I'd share the info on this event in case anyone is looking for something fun to do this weekend!
Clean Ocean Action's Family Beach Ball
A family friendly fun event... and the admission fees are tax deductible!
It's a giant beach party with reggae music, surfing, face painting...
Just wanted to thank Steve @ Ultra Corals for the great experience I had with him at our last club meeting.
Not only did he donate some choice frags for our raffles (which I ended up winning a really nice orange paly rock and supposedly they're pretty rare!... wish I wasn't so horrible at...
As a member of Project Aware, I often get emails regarding topics of marine conservation. I thought I'd share the latest one I received, in hopes that some of you will help out by submitting a petition submission.
Here's the email I received:
If this type of thing interests you, it wouldn't...
Congrats Sandee. That was a cool pic, but I must admit I didn't vote for it due to the "slightly enhanced" part in the description. If the description didn't mention it was enhanced, I would have voted for it myself. :applause:
While that is not against the rules of the contest, I think...
I'm going to build a canopy for my 75g tank, mainly to house my new LED's. There are lot's of designs out there on google, but I haven't found any that would fit my needs.
For one thing, my tank is viewable on 3 sides (front, back, and right side) so the typical type with an open back just...
I just watched this vid from the History Channel about 2 Locomotive Trains, sunken off the coast of Long Branch, NJ.

Be warned, it's about 45 minutes long (no commercials...
Has anyone here used one of these controllers before?
Reef Angel
It looks like it can do just about anything an Apex can, even more if you know anything about coding or the Arduino programming language.
The cost of this thing is cheap at $219 for the basic package, although it can add up if...
At the frag swap, I was talking to someone (I think he was from Knockout Aquatics?) who had a display on the Apollo Reef LED lights. I was pretty impressed with the par readings and it looked like a real quality unit.
I'm considering upgrading to their Dimable LED's but was wondering if...
Mods, please feel free to move this if you think it doesn't belong in this section.
My wife and I are looking to buy a new camera for ourselves for Xmas and I'm looking for suggestions. I know there are differing opinions over which brand to get, so hopefully we can keep this civil... I'm...
Every year for Halloween, I carve a pumpkin. Normally, I tape one of those templates on the pumkin and poke lil dots along the pattern so I know where to make the cuts.
Well, after watching "Halloween Wars" I learned there were other ways to carve a pumpkin. So, this year I decided to try...
I've got some of the same hammer coral available if anyone wants to buy some.
I can frag off at least the same size as Craig's for the same price.
PM me to coordinate. Here's a pic of the mother colony taken this morning.
Now that we've moved over to the new site, there are a few things that everyone should change in their user control panel settings. I helped test the new board before it went live and the following are a few things I think everyone should change to make things better for you (it may be helpful...
Well, I just realized that with the website fiasco of losing a year's worth of posts that we also lost the meeting schedule for this year.
I took the liberty to search Google Cache to find this year's meeting schedule, and will post it below. Note that I don't know if this is still valid with...
I just did some tank maintenance and realized it was time to trim back my chaeto.
If anyone needs any please call my cell... 609-509-3120. I live about 8 minutes away from Aquarium Center.
I would love to get rid of it tonight or tomorrow if possible since I already cut it. I have it sitting...
