I'd be careful with cutting boards. They are sometimes treated with algaecide or other chemicals to prevent bacteria.

Since this is from OCTOBER we'll assume that the OP has already either drilled the glass or gone a different route. Thanks for all of the posts.

Maybe once he has a clutch you should back off on feeding a bit? I'm sure the folks over on MOFIB will be of some help!

Looking forward to it, Kat!

Not to worry, Ed... your camera is a Nikon. They are easily trained to produce GREAT results! :) Sorry, Brian, you weren't so lucky Here are some of the shots that I took: Wow! This Nikon is AMAZING! Glad it isn't a canon

I would try HERE first. Please be sure to post back what you learn though!

Kat! Good to "see" you! :) Glad to hear the clowns are all getting along and that they are ALL now hosting happily! How's the tank doing?

Yeah, Jim. That's the main reason I'm switching. Zenni (our pup) also seems to have an itchy tummy. Not sure if it is related to the food, but I figure switching to a better food might help eliminate that as an cause.

SGarron had some glass cut for the 90g he built, I believe. Hopefully he'll chime in.

Siphon... We have a solonoid in line with ours to prevent siphoning in either direction (it would back siphon if the level of the holding vessel was more than the sump or over-feed if the source water was higher). The solonoid is critical to prevent failure.

Seachem Reef Salt is made at the IO/RC plant (same bucket) to the Seachem specs. I thought that was interesting (but for WHATEVER reason it lost credibility with me there). I don't care for the red sea. My silicates are higher since using it. BillyR had a bad case of dinoflagelletes after...

Yeah, I'm with you, Deb. That really grosses me out too. I'll stick to store bought. I'm thinking the Wellness core would be a good food to switch her over to. Of course not until after I bought a bag of the Blue Buffalo... further reading on that they say it isn't certified to be ethoxoquin...

Stick with TM. Its a good salt.

The food we use is rated 1 star and it doesn't have any ash. It does however have wheat and some other starch as fillers. It is good to read the low end and high end reviews to see what elements are commended v. condemned. Reading the ingredients (without being informed) made it look to me like...

Does it siphon off? Does it look like green cyano? What kind of sand did you use?

I've had my clowns pull a piece off, but I don't know that mine have ever dropped bits off that were able to grow.

Our dog is a big fan of deer and rabbit poop. She is currently eating beneful puppy, but the fillers in that are appauling and the food rates 1 measly star on the dogfood website. Seems like that puts it in the barely fit for consumption category!

Very interesting site, but how do you use it to shop for foods?! I can see me making 10 trips to and from the store trying to figure out which of the "good ones" they carry! And how many stars at a minimum would you accept? and ... I'm still a bit bewildered by it all.

I agree with Merv. It SHOULDN'T be the problem, but I guess you just never know. How many watts and how many hours a day? Pure Actinic? What kind of bulb? How long has it been on the tank for?

Steve, thanks to you and your wife for having us (especially so close to the due date)! I hope that you did all the clean up and let her rest the evening away! Good luck with the new baby. As always your tanks are spectacular and your meeting wonderful. Thanks to all who came out to make today...
