Grats and welcome! Annnnnnddd...nitrites can kill fish. There's a few types of bacteria that need to establish in the tank. When the nitrite reducers propagate enough, the nitrites will drop. This hobby is built on patience. If you want to forgo everything and have the true experience, here's...

I have an IM30 myself and love it. Its a great size and easy maintenence. If I had the space I’d grab it mysellf.

Thanks for the replies folks. Got a bit to ponder on. I may just do the trailer this year and decide on a slip next year, but going to look at that drop in service thing, like the sound of it. Per towing, I’m in a Ridgeline (pickup), so shouldnt be too much of a concern. Going to bring Carla to...

We wait for this every year. Brandl last night. Prime 13 tonight. Black Swan on Sunday. Brandl was friggin tops last night. Zuccini meatball starter, 6 ounce perfectly cooked filet mignon with veg, espresso creme brûlée finish for $40. https://www.jerseyshorerestaurantweek.com/

So, looking at a small, simple, family deck boat. Decided on a Bayliner m15, fits the bill and can be parked easily in the drive. Question before I get into this... The boat is small enough that it will easily park in my drive (and comes with a galvaniazed trailer). I can access a number of...

Got mine out yesterday. Picked up a few new ones from Amazon, reviews saying these things are tops, hopefully so. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B095J59XRM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1

Wow. Great deal. GLWS.

Seems to be.

So, I knew the new G6 lights are weaker on PAR than previous models (but far superior on spread and spectrum). Had mine set at 50% and I knew it was way low. Assuming the Photone readings are correct, I was at about 100-120 at mid tank (SPS level). Cranked them up to 85% for a reading of 250-280...

Joined their 'vital care' for fish. $10 a month billed annual. If you're near the Brick Petco, its a no brainer. Gets you a $5 credit every month and 20% off ANYTHING fish related - food, floss, nets, hardware, tanks, etc. Best part is the discount stacks with sales, so this weekend was...

Doing some research on this. Seems the only calibration you need for the Photone app is to determine the loss of par through the plastic you have the phone in. If you don't want to do that you can assume the plastic will drop the par by 10-20. Watched a few vids and I'm convinced that it won't...

It's cute when amateurs think they can make chili

Thanks for hosting! We've neglected the meetings for too long. I should be able to make it. (and I'll announce a date for June at my place closer to the time)

Yeah, but look at those other members that are signed in. It's like a wretched hive of scum and villany.

The last order I had with them (previous to this one) had a 100% doa. Got a refund for it but was still disappointing. Decided to try again with this order and had a 50% survival. Didn't even bother to take pics, just dumped the shells in the tank for the hermits to use.

I'll do a June meeting (date tbd) if no one else wants that slot.

Aarrgh. Love this light. Four weeks back couldn't find any for sale, so I upgraded my Radions. Still tempting

First I've heard of it. If I can be bothered with the drive I may head up there for a few hours.

Got it. So they monitored this site, saw the sale and contact info, and approached you as the salesperson. Confirming they are not related to the site. May be a situation where we need a rule modification, like no visible contact info in the forums (I'm a major violator of that).

For the first time in, err, maybe 2 years or so, I'm actually going to check my tanks. I plan on checking Alk, Ca, Mg, and even salinity. I expect, as I'm going to do this, I will have a hard crash of both tanks immediately after.
