I will have some Kenyas for sale at the swap also if anyone is looking. You can find me at the Seahorse.Org booth.

They make ones just for aquarium use, but you will definitely pay the price for them.

One thing to keep in mind when using computer fans on a saltwater tank, the bearings are not sealed and eventually will fail from the salt creep.

Same here. I'm almost thinking it may be a dying feather star.

You definitely want to be rinsing the frozen foods.

Try dipping them in an iodine solution such as Lugols, or SeaChem's Coral disinfectant.

Any fish you put in the fuge will totally defeat the purpose have setting it up in the first place. A refugium is a "refuge" or safe place for your pods and such to populate and reproduce. If you introduce a predator then they will not be able to do so and you will basically have another display...

It was a design flaw that has since been corrected. That is what the recall was about and the reason they were on backorder for so long. I haven't heard of anybody that got replacements having any problems with them now.

I haven't seen any reflectors that fit in the Nova fixtures. The fixtures are so narrow that you don't have room to put a reflector over every bulb.

Also try gently tapping the side of the hydrometer once you get the water in it. Sometimes small air bubbles will collect on the swing arm and casue it to float up to the top.

Yup, same set up I have. But like I said, how would you get your sump out if anything happens to it if you put it in from the top? That brace across the top holds the front and back of the stand together. Very similar to the center brace on the tank itself.

What folks thught you meant was that your stand had double doors with a brace between them. That is the brace they thought you wanted to remove. If you put your sump in from the top, that means you have to drain the tank to get it back out agin if it ever starts to leak or anything along those...

Does it look like either of the things in the following links? http://www.seahorse.org/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.ShowItem&g2_itemId=2143 http://www.seahorse.org/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.ShowItem&g2_itemId=1528

You're the acrylic master, why not just make a hanger for you probes? There are tons of ideas floating around the web.

I keep mine about 1/2 way submerged. Was never sure if the top end was waterproof or not. I do know that the bottom tip has to stay wet though.

Mine was reading that high for a while, I re-calibrated my probe and now it's reading 8.12. Something you may want to look into.

Well another great meeting is in the books. A huge thanks to Ken and Dana for opening up their lovely home to us. Your home and tanks were fantastic. As usual there was plenty of food, drinks and good times. It was great seeing some of the old faces and meeting some of the new ones as well...

Never used it myself, but I know a few folks that do and they swear by it.

Doesn't matter. I alternate between the 2. If I am going to do a water change on my fragtank, I syphon from the sump. Regular water changes I do from the main tank so I can syphon the detritus off the rocks and sand bed.

I'll take the following: 6 heads of purple mushrooms attached to rock (all the size of a nickle) $20 ,small mushroom rocks $5- is there 2 or 3 rocks? mushroom rock with 1 purple and 1 red and green pimple $8
