    Whats your salinity? Cheap pumps will increase shock potential but it should affect corals first. If fish are passing and corals are ok...? Never hurts to check voltage regardless.

    Chemiclean and red slime algae

    Used recommended amount. Skimmer still going a bit nuts 48 hours later. Changed floss 3-4 times over past 2 days but tank looks fantastic. Pretty astounding results, rocks no longer covered, no strands, and all livestock happy.

    Bought 1976 Apache Mesa camper

    Was first in line and the owner gave me first refusal. We were there for an hour contemplating while 6 others showed up anxious to buy. We bought it. 5 congratulated us, one cursed us. Great shape, apparently one of the best hard sided pop-up campers made. Total noob to this. Anyone with any...

    Steam Punk Lamp

    You need to drop some cash and have someone set up a professional website for you. There are folks that would pay hundreds for these, no bs. The only way they could look better is that you balance them on the bumpy parts of supermodels when you advertise.

    Any thoughts or tips.

    Got this one. But first, thanks for the service to the officer pictured above the tank. Thoughts... Its a tank, on a stand with cool corner cuts, with some equipment, rocks, and livestock in it. Tips... Do no empty the water, dip live electric lines into the tank, or add shampoo to the tank to...

    Help trouble with glass panel in aquarium...Please help =(

    +1 and +1 on above posts. Sell it as a reptile tank. They will cover it with vines or a stone simulated panel and throw a snake or chameleon in there. And these guys/gals would be happy with a deal on a tank on craigslist, they usually purchase those big tanks at full price. But, if you want a...

    mysterious deaths

    Check your test kit. Sounds like rising ammonia, basslets are fairly resistant and clowns are very resistant, so the order of expiration seems to fit. Is your test kit in date? Is it a decent kit? Maybe run a test and note your results then bring a sample to a local shop and have them test to...

    Chemiclean and red slime algae

    There's a post below titled 'Using Hydrogen Peroxide for cyano removal'. I do this once in a while (and just did it to 2 frags this week. It works wonders. 2 parts water, 1 Part HP, dip frag for no more than 5 mins, replace in tank. Softies seem to love it and hair algae gone in a day or two...

    Know this doesn't apply to everyone, but for those in central and south Jersey within reach, jump on board if you like. Pick up here or I can drop off depending on day (Saturday between 12 and 4, or Sunday before 3). Christina seems a good person gaining a bad rep for things beyond her control...

    H2OPro Corals (online) (+)

    Free shipping at H2O back down to $100 with frags as low as $9. For all I've ordered I've had 3 polyps die out - 2 of them were very small and 1 (of 4) decided to give up. All others are opened and looking fantastic.

    Free Lg Camel Shrimp ASAP, or give me something if you like.

    Prob I had with a camel shrimp was it went nuts on hammers I had. Woke up one morning to find vibrant green mini-bits floating about the tank, and 2 dead hammers, one of which he was still going at. BUT! SAYING THAT! It was perfect in the sump. My entire sump consisted of 1 rock urchin and 1...
