    Anyone know about DAS skimmers?

    Bluestravlr had one and LOVED it. He was really happy with it I don't have any personal experience with them, but did consider one before we picked up our MRC. Couldn't get enough feedback on them to go that route when we were purchasing.

    possible tank upgrade

    Tank moves are always well attended, Tom. Hard to say right now if we'll be available when you go to move it, but it goes without saying that we'll be there for the move. Unfortunately I don't know the answer to your question about suring up the floor. Can't wait to follow along. A 360 would...

    NOT the dreaded GOLDFISH! Oh no. It is no small wonder you're thinking of getting back in!

    thinking of coming back

    Welcome back Jerry! Good to see you getting back in. Rich's right (did I just say that out loud?! LOL), there have't been very many ground breaking advancements. I'm actually surprised that Rich didn't mention Vortechs, though. I'm not sure if they were out before you ducked out or not, but...

    What fish came in? Any "stand out" corals? I'd love to hear the details of what you've got in today!

    Conversion to 180g

    Actually, if we did ANYTHING, it was adjust the lighting. We turned all lights off after the burn was realized. We left them off for the rest of the night. The following two days were actinics only. We added the 400s in on day 3, if I remember correctly and then it was another couple of days...

    Need 2 Host

    Steve68 is in Central. Jason's house would be a lot of fun for a July meeting! ;D My vote is for Jason's.

    Need 2 Host

    We've been talking about a trip to the aquarium, we just need to arrange the particulars. That would likely be in addition to our regular meeting schedule, rather than in place of. We certainly wouldn't use it to replace a North meeting (unless we'd exhausted all other options).

    Need 2 Host

    Andy (NJReefGeek) offered to host the November meeting while we were at Billy's this weekend. We only need a north host for July (a great time to be outdoors).

    Looks great. Love all the "stuff" on the TBS rock. Very nice.

    New tank Syndrome

    They'll burn themselves out. I wouldn't worry about diminishing the light during this period. If you do choose to run less halides, I'd vary which one I'd run (L1 Thur, L2 Fri, L3 Sat, ... ) so that they all get their day in the sun. :)

    NJRC 2007 Officers

    Thanks to all of the officers who made such a great 2007 possible. Their hard work and dedication should be applauded. Special thanks to Jeff & Sam, our two officers from last year who are not returning to the board this year. They were both a tremendous help to us in all that we accomplished...

    True, but the credit for the recovery goes to the corals and not their keeper on this one!

    NJRC 2008 Officers

    Big thanks to all of the people who volunteered to run for an office this year. Thanks also goes out to the 40 people who turned out to vote. 20% less than last year's voting base in spite of an increase in membership. I think it is really important to note that without the participation of the...

    Where does the time go?! It really feels like just yesterday that you were announcing the news, and I still can't wrap my head around the fact that nearly 8 months have passed since then. Congratulations. I love the smile, happiness and pride emminating from your daughter in that one photo...
