    Bad fish week

    That thought crossed my mind, but no new rock was added.

    Zoa tree....nightmare before christmas theme

    Is it a color theme? I've started a garden tank that I'm trying to keep very specific with higher end zoas, so I have a few colonies (10+ polyps) of generic greens and blues (and maybe a few reds) you're welcome to. I've changed the circulation in their tank, so they've been closed up, but I'll...

    Aquarium Depot (online) (-)

    Final input on this I sent a note to Christina, sorta in resignation... Received this reply late tonight... A quality control guy was hired, apparently inspired by my emails? So, accordingly, it seems this actually is a 'shop', and they are running 25k of water with 1 guy with family...

    May 2017 Meeting (Marcus Home)

    DUDE! I'm going to have to pass. Surgery is Tuesday the 16th and spending the weekend with family doing whatever my 6 year old wants to do. Seriously sorry I'm going to miss it.

    Bad fish week

    So, I had 2 darwin clowns and a small lazy goby in my 10g IM awaiting transfer to a more luxurious home. Possibly to the East side, to a deeeeluxe apartment in the skyyyyiiiiiyyyy. 3 weeks ago, the only change was addition of an emerald crab. I doubt he/she is the concern, but who knows. Last...

    Aqua Oceans (Tom's River) (+)

    Krus, Give them a call. When I was there this week there seemed to be a few large used tanks. Oh, and pics should be OK now.

    Aqua Oceans (Tom's River) (+)

    Small shop in Ocean County. I bought my first big tank there (65g reefer). Can't recall the owners name and neglected to ask today, but a small operation. A number of USED tanks at great pricing. If looking for a used in Ocean (or nearby) counties, its more than worthwhile to call to see what's...

    Understood, and thus my comms with AD as I had some good orders with them in the past and was hoping to help people see past the bad rep they seem to have developed, honestly and truly trying to help. Please note there was considerable communication between myself and AD regarding this order as...

    Was a pain trying to cancel the order, I couldn't find any way to do it. I believe I tried to modify the order to zero out all the items, obviously it didn't succeed. I truly believe I enclosed a note to AD that I had modified my order to add the Jungle Juice and it superceded my previous order...

    Tunze 3155 question

    BAck syphon caused by delivery hose below the water level in the tank. Sometimes with the Tunze nano you also have to plug it in and uplug it a few times to 'Prime' it. I've had it happen on occasion. Also, If your float switch ever goes, drop me a line, one of mine went on a tank and I just...

    The zoa frags are TINY, tiny enough that I question their survivability. Example, here's the Jungle Juice, they list at $9.99 per head. They are approximately 1/16th of an inch, or less, across when closed, as are the orange Bambams (also $9.99 per head). The pointer is a standard pen tip (just...

    Well, certainly cant reship the livestock back, too much for them I would think. I'll acclimate whats here and see if it survives. Pods I will dump in cheato area of fuge and when trimmed that should lower the levels in my tank. Mailed AD tonight, who knows?

    Excellent packaging. Overnight delivery. Livestock looks OK. But problem I'm not happy with. I initially placed an order containing a number of items, including 'Candy Apple Zoas'. I noted with that order that if 'Jungle Juice' zoas became available again (they were out), to please add 5 or so...

    TIgs, Haven't seen the pop ups, but I do have pop ups off on my machine, maybe thats why. I've got faith here in Christina and her site as she's sent me some quite detailed info on how she lost R2G and transitioned over to the AD name. Unsure of her aquarium experience, but she has a supplier...

    Agreed. CMantis, would love the link. Trio, soz, I had it posted for a bit but the order went fairly quickly. Christina mailed me and mentioned no other members ordered. I'll run a full review from unboxing to tank introduction. If all well, I'll set up a few group orders from a few shops before...

    Freshoffthegrill's 120G Reef Tank

    Looks great! The scale of the tank with the clowns makes me want to go out and do something that would inevitably lead to my wife murdering me (though there would then be a 120+ gallon tank available cheap)

    Steam Punk Lamp

    As I was a surviving artist for 15 years before dochood, I can offer these pieces of advice to drive up prices: 1. Aire of disinterested arrogance. 2. Beret if gauche, or top hat for eccentric. 3. Every few seconds during a conversation, become distracted, look at your hand, mutter something...
