    The 120 I said would never happen

    The rocks I picked up a 20# box of Marco rocks (flat), 70 and a box of a dozen 3/8" acrylic rods, and with a masonry bit and some glue/epoxy made a few structures... I I have plenty of acrylic rod left over if anyone needs any. The tank bottom I picked up a large sheet of laminate...

    Innovative Marine 30 AIO Long

    Zoas are funny like that, I've been specific with them for about 2 years now. About 18 months ago I started adjusting them based on bases. Anything stretching, I'd move up in the tank slow (or I'd increase intensity of each light channel by 5 per week). I'd move the Gummie Bears and Hornets up...

    Fragging help

    Need help from someone experienced next Saturday or Sunday. My 120 is up and I'm going to be transferring, but the colonies in my 40 are out of control. Pay will be most excellent beer, a good eating while fragging meal, and generous frags of Radioactives, Utter Chas, Superman and red montis...

    Edited the original for a 24 hour later shot. Seriously sucked. Almost didn't BBQ or drink on the holiday, but managed. I talked like a pirate a lot.

    Wash those hands folks...

    Diana, Initially I couldnt see well due to the quick swelling and the tearing up. A taxi was in the works if things went bad with vision. I was working to keep the swelling at bay as best I could but there wasnt an effect on my actual sight at all. I could open the swollen eye and see fine.

    Wash those hands folks...

    I often reach into my tanks to replace snail-plowed coral to its position, recover a scraper, place a frag exactly where I want it, etc... Never had a problem in all the years I've been doing this. And I've gotten lazy. Lazy means that I slowly moved away from gloves, then away from the...

    Make sure when you open that can of tuna you follow those instructions. I'm not going to go into graphic detail, but I tried it once without instruction and we spent weeks cleaning tuna off the woodwork and out of crevasses and orafices. They're there for a reason.
