    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    Paul, Lemme ask you a question as one good looking, witty, and dapper fellow to another. I know you've had your tanks running for many moons and they thrive. I'm on the Jersey shore, Brick/Point Pleasant to be specific. I've been using my own RODI and mix (Red Sea Coral Pro) since I started, and...

    Pico set-ups: how to run a successful 1-5 gallons saltwater tank

    Heya F! Good to see your post, looking forward to your experiences and happy to share some of my own. Pretty sure it all starts with a round tank and rockin' stand ;)

    Anemone not extending tips <pictures>

    Wouldn't worry. Looks healthy. They're tempermental. As long as its locked down on a rock, isn't discoloring, isn't deteriorating, and isn't trailing any stringy stuff out of its 'mouth' it should be OK. I've had a few in the past that, due to minor trauma or tank fluctuations, stayed closed for...

    :( Carpet surfer

    Not a big deal, just a silly post, re: 'damp note'. Had jumpers before, will have again, just really liked that clown. I do have a netting kit, just never needed it, never expected a clown to jump, BUT...DA DA DUMMMMM... I had introduced a juvenile 6 line from another tank, beauty of a fish, but...

    :( Carpet surfer

    Just a few days ago I was truly appreciating my Clownfish, best looking pair I've ever seen. Found one on the floor yesterday. Tiny note left, damp, don't read fish.

    Trop closing?

    Apparently all fish in larger tanks are claimed, heard mention that a lot of the adopters are vendors and suppliers.

    Steam Punk Lamp

    Grats! BAsed on the fact that they have a lot of pieces that have time to be photographed and put up on a website to sit for a while, I'm guesssing your stuff is a goldmine, and rightly so. Hoping you got a good price, especially as its in the city. Also, now that you sold out in 24 hours, and...

    HEY MARK! Know you're doing a bit of food but I'd like to contribute. Won a few awards for chili in the past, I'll make up a big batch and bring it along, along with some tortillas. Also, for FRAG RAFFLE! Is Chris picking stuff up? If so, he might as well just leave it in his car as he'll win...

    Welcome To NJRC! Take a minute to introduce yourself

    Welcome to Coral and Eddie! Fung and I have met and he now is continuing the 2.5g build! JG, in Brick myself off Jack Martin near Ocean Med. Also, check the for sale forum, Nyte is selling a bunch of tanks including a 90 with stand (and a 40b for a sump), and a hob overflow... and see you saw...

    Trop closing?

    Picked up a couple zoas and snails, plus some freeze dried food and live blackworms for $20 today. They still have approx 100-150 small frags (mostly encrusting) and a few larger pieces of brain, branching sps, etc. They have a couple of tanks left, but no big ones, some bulbs, live rock (some...

    December 2017 Meeting

    Eric has me confused, and, as I'm of simple brain, that's pretty easy to do. Is this not next weekend, or has there been a mis-post somewhere? We have lunch with Santa tomorrow and I'd hate to run out early on the dude. Would probably decrease my chances of getting the magic device that I've...

    Cool. Mark is in Jackson at Ultimate for corals. To be honest, the Petco in Brick is fantastic for salt water. The guy who runs the department is a reefer and he keeps the place miles above any other 'chain' shop I've seen.

    Any Cyber Monday Deals you jumping on?

    Not really up for anything in particular in the tank department, reigned in my spending to almost zero lately. But! I jumped in today thinking I may drop a few bucks. I'm not seeing anything out of the ordinary on multiple sites. It may be that I'm inundated with so many sales through the year...

    2017-11-27 Poll of the Day - Sponges

    Picked up a sponge when I started. Told not to expose it to air. Lived and grew very well. Big water change mild rock rearrange. Accidentally exposed about 30% of it to air for 10-15 seconds. Skeletal within 2 days. Sponges suck, but when they suck air, its not a happy ending.

    Hello, just joined!!

    John! Welcome aboard! Beautiful tank. Would love to go with a FW, but space limitations dictate otherwise. And welcome to reefing! Asking copious questions before doing something is highly encouraged! Though not by me, I get pissed off at it and will give misleading advice in vengeance.
