    A good laugh!

    One of my customers sent me this picture today on our Facebook page. She purchased this carpet anemone from us and fell in love with him, her, it.... She named it Oscar. Her clever hubby photoshopped this in. Thought you'd all enjoy.

    Camera recommendations

    Check for a macro extension tube. It'll give you the desired effects without the high cost. The one for my Canon Rebel is only $8 on Ebay. Also, look online. I was able to find out on I believe ehow.com how to set my white balance. It takes away all the blues and dull look of the actinics...

    T-5 Replacement Bulb Recommendations

    I don't know guys...... I'm loving my T5's. I went with the combo Len told me use and the colors are amazing! I set up the T5 fixture over my new 4' x 2' frag tank..... and personally... I think it blows my LED's away. I just don't think LED'***** all the color spectrums unless you use...

    Acans colors fading?

    +1 for Mike. Keep them low. The orange and red will overcome the rest of the colors if they're up too high. The more insane "Rainbow" acans are found in lower light waters. T5's bring out the colors the best, but you can use LED if they're in the right spot. All about finding the sweet...

    Sump crack

    You would be best by cutting back as much silicone as possible. It will stick to the old silicone, but you'd want a quality overlapping bead. My cube I cut back about 2" in all directions. Laid silicone for about 4" past where I cut it to. 70 gallons of pressure, and no leaks!

    Sump crack

    You can replace the glass, but depending on the manufacturer of the tank it may or may not be all that easy! I did a 70 cube recently (Marineland) and it wasn't too hard, just time consuming. Then we tried an Aqueon 40 Breeder and what a nightmare. All depends on how the glass is mounted to...

    What a game

    Aren't we forgetting the real stat? Last 8 games between the two, Eagles have won 7. Even if they are, I mean WERE the champs, the Eagles have always been the thorn in their side. Now somebody get us a good QB, or atleast an offensive line that can protect!

    Did I Score?

    Def not a lunar. They are bright orange skirts with dark centers. Looks like a good oddball paly though. If they were cheap, then YES you scored.

    Foxface in a Fluval Edge!!!!!!????

    Njrc hasn't put up a rabbitfish police emoticon yet..... Had to use the tang police one. I'm well aware. Lol Used Tangs as a generalization on large fish that shouldn't be in a small tank.

    LED Research

    You're forgiven! Yeah, we're running into the same issue. The drivers flicker. The Potentiometers are absolute junk! Even the replacement I've found aren't that great. The color is better than I had from my T5, but we're going to have to add Reds and Greens to give some of our corals more of...

    LED Research

    Thanks for recommending them to me Xavier! LMAO. I've found the lack of color out the hard way, as well as the cheap chinese drivers flicker like crazy. I'll only hold you half responsible. Make a check for $220 payable to Zoanut! LOL

    LED Research

    We've done the Aquastyleonline.com kits as well as the Stevesleds.com kits. Both have their ups and downs. I like Steve's drivers much better, though the old style brick heatsink truly is nicer, IMO. Problem we're seeing is color. While a 2:1 ratio of blues to whites seems like a good combo...
