If you're able to login there, I'm surprised you can't PM or post. They've recently upgraded their servers/forum software and I'm not really sure what their registration process is anymore. I'm pretty sure they required activation, but I'd think that you wouldn't be able to login if your...

Scott, welcome. Be sure to post up any questions that you have in a separate thread so that they get the attention that they deserve! Hopefully we can help you get that 95 up and running with greater success.

Re: Fish/Corals Keepers Workshop Wow. I've not heard a single thing about this! I'll see what I can find out.

I would never do a tank in acrylic. Not of any size. An acrylic tank has too great a likelihood to scratch and haze.

Thanks Doug. We'll review the offer, but expanding to another forum (when we already have this to monitor) is not an undertaking to be taken lightly. They certainly do offer great support for a club that doesn't already have a private forum. I would imagine new clubs will love the idea!

Every time you change your lighting you cause a change in your tank. Nutrients that one algae might not be able to use may feed another algae that thrives in those conditions. Altogether possible that the change caused the outbreak. I see it often when people change types of lighting (PC/T5/MH)...

Great job, Brian. Had my cam there, didn't manage to get it out of the bag before we had to run!

That golden frag was a doll baby though Sierra has done nothing but talk about the little black one since we left! She just loved that pup! Brian mentioned photos, Bob. I'm sure they'll be up in no time. We missed you and Terry. Hopefully we'll see you at an upcoming.

Welcome to the forums. Glad you've found us. We look forward to hearing all about your tank as it grows. Feel free to start a "Tale of the Tank" thread with it so we can watch your progress.

Friction coefficient?! And you say you don't know anything about carpentry?! LOL! Ok. I've probably used screws just not knowing any better. ;D

They were some beautiful frags for sure. Good luck to the winners of them. I can't wait to see them grow! Thanks Cherry Corals!

Thanks everyone. Great dialog during the meeting and we had an excellent time while we were there. Sorry our stay was so short. I wish we had been able to stay MUCH longer but the kids had us crunched into a tiny window today! Thanks so much for opening your home up to us! We appreciate it and...

I didn't realize it wasn't. We'll take a look and see if we can figure out what's going on.

Most people say 1" of fish body (not counting tail) per 5g of water. Assume 25g in a 29 with 45# of rock and a sump.

I can bring it home with me if you guys aren't going to the meeting (!?) ;D

Hood or no hood? What about one of the IceCap fixtures or Retro kits? I like the retros for the bang for buck. I would choose an IceCap fixture (that you know is powered with a 660 ballast) over a current fixture (my current PC fixture had the ballasts both "melt" on me), personally.

They are great guys. We actually never have invited them to sponsor. I figure they know that sponsorships are available, but we don't really "sell" sponsorships (unless someone is using our forums in a commercial way without being a sponsor).

They do stunning work for a champagne taste, but I have more of a Glass Cages budget than that! Whoah!

Interesting... What corals are you keeping these days? Do you think there will be any algae implications from using the 6500 NO bulbs? Do they hold their color spectrum? I'd love to see progress shots on the tank for a few months to see if there's any notable change.

Welcome! What a great story! I'm glad you're finally on the right road. Start a "tale of the tank" thread when you get a chance so that we can follow along!
