    clown problem

    Unless the tank is big - there's a good chance the GSM will go after the black perc and show him/her who's the boss. I would suggest returning/selling one clown.

    Need HELP!!!! Undergravel Filter to keep or not to keep!

    holy cow I thought this was a joke post. first off - WELCOME to NJRC! glad you found us. I have READ about some people who still maintain UGFs in a reef environment - but I believe it was mostly softies - and also the guy was doing some kind of very slow reverse flow. POint being - it's...

    Hawkeye's AGA 120

    Re: AGA 120 (very few pictures and lots of dull writing) Well it's been 4 weeks since LR was introduced into the tank. not a whole lot of things in there - the usual cast of mini brittle stars, asterina stars (which I've been removing), a few bristle worms, a feather duster rock (i call it that...

    does it look like my cycle started yet

    i could be wrong by bio spira is in the refrigerated section I believe - I don't know if OG II or which LFS carries it. I thought about going that route too but just ended up buying cured LR from another reefer on this board. I wouldn't put anything in there with any readings on Ammonia or...

    Feeding Harlequin a Chocolate chip is eat mean ???

    When I did lab tests with mice and rats - we were breeding dozens of them in a short period of time. A single female could be used 2,3 times a year to get a litter. It was easy and it's no wonder rats are used all over the world for testing. I don't think you can compare rats with starfish...

    Phosphate Reactor

    yes - it works and dump the fluval unless you're running it exclusively with carbon/gfo. The fluval (and any cannister) can become a trap and may actually be creating more nitrates/phosphates to be released back.

    Let's Get Ready to Re-Scape

    I would sell maybe 30# of LR to help clear out space. You've got a nice Deep Sand Bed - and there's plenty of LR in there I think to help manage ammonia/nitrite and to a degree nitrates. The removal of some LR will help in that it will allow more flow and reduce the amount of detritus trapped in...

    Which Mag Float

    as far as i know- tuxedo blue urchins are supposedly excellent at coralline removal...as long as you don't mind the rather haphazard way they go about it. oh and thanks phyl! I didn't realize my reefgadget was for an acryllic tank. It works well on glass still!

    New Additions

    I've read with interest that this is one the few species you can keep in even numbered groupings - the author (Tim Hayes) preferred groups of 12 or so. Interesting fact - each one possesses both male and female organs! Good luck finding these - i don't think I have ever seen one at any of the LFS.

    Which Mag Float

    I was able to get one from dflint when he left the hobby - though I think my "razor" is actually made of plastic. The production of these has ceased for some time. We'd have to convince the creator to re-start. Don't count on it...I know he's been super busy.
