    How to Bring back Corals from Frag Farmers?

    If you're going the saltwater route, forget about bringing a glass tank.....bring a salt bucket (or two). They seal well; you can use them for the water as well; the thermal mass of approximately four gallons will travel well in a heated car. Bring along a small heater and pump for when...

    Feeding via the return pump and auto feeder

    I'm not sure if you're talking about the sight of the feeder or the sight of the food floating on the water surface. If it's the food, simply use a feeding ring. They do sell them, but I made these two out of tubing I already had. One has two suction cups to attach in a corner next to...

    How to Bring back Corals from Frag Farmers?

    Sounds like a plan. Include a couple hand warms wrapped in a facecloth and you'll be good.

    Zoas finally opened. Anyone know if they are named zoas?

    Inherited 90

    Thanks for the kind comments everyone, but with the recent issues over "what color is the dress," I just wanted to clarify that the above corals are in my tank. Don't let your eye-to-brain connection fool you with corals as well. I know that they look exactly like recent pictures...

    Diy calcium reactor

    Very nicely done Rob. For a brief second I though about switching...........and then the horror stories flooded my brain.

    Welcome To NJRC! Take a minute to introduce yourself

    Ace, welcome. I'd suggest you start a Tale of the Tank thread were you can document your progress and continue to ask questions. Without knowing what drainage system you have, I'm going to guess it's a durso. If that is the case, a common problem is that it intermittently siphoned water...

    February Meeting Recap

    Karen, great job, but you forgot Tim junior, who pulled on my pant legs mutliple times, and the (maybe) bulldog in the back yard who jumped on my legs four of five times to only attempt unsuccessfully to roll over on his back for a belly rub. :p :grin:

    Feb Meeting Announcement

    Thank you Tim and family for having us at your house. Always enjoy seeing the old crew as well as meeting new ones. I think the real meeting was in the garage with the new tank. I know pictures were taken, and hopefully will be posted. To top off the meeting, I was a big winner of frags...

    Inherited 90

    I was fortunate enough to be a big winner at this month's NJRC meeting. Here are the pieces I picked up. Sorry for the quality, it's my little point-n-shoot camera, and this is right after a dip in Bayer and fresh water. 1. Unknow Zoa from Ultimate Corals....sorry, it's so PO'ed from being...

    RO Booster Pump Connections

    Pete, I'm not sure if I'm following your verbage....to be clear, the order should be: Raw Water --> Sediment Filter -->Carbon Block(s) -->BOOSTER PUMP --> RO Membrane --> DI Resin --> Clean Water

    RO Booster Pump Connections

    I've been running my RO booster pump all wrong from the time I set it up. I run my booster though all filters. If any of you visit R2R, you are most likely aware of AZDesertRat, who is an expert on RO/DI systems. He posted the correct way to hook up the booster pump. I'm reconnecting...

    55 Gallon Plastic Drums

    I haven't looked in a while, but try Craigslist for food grade barrels. You can usually pick them up for 30-40 bucks.

    BRS has been hacked

    I'm with you as far as my card being replaced twice already this year from other indiscretions. I haven't gotten a letter yet, but if I do I would simply change my password and request a new card. I wouldn't bother with the monitoring.....just get the new card and move on.

    Parrot

    Look at the parrot on a stump? Now go back and take a second look. It's a woman carefully painted....do you see her?

    It's Cold Out!!!

    We've had the same problem up here around NYC. The tug boats have been running back and forth on the Hudson trying to keep the river open enough for the ferrys to get in and out of NYC. Also, my one kid, who lives in Farmingdale, had a frozen pipe in her rental house.....flooded the...

    yellow tang

    Wow! Great price and nice looking fish. I already have two Zebrasomas in the tank, and a third would be World War III. Good luck with the sale.....this one won't take long.
