    Oceanic 30g cube owners, I need your opinion :)

    When I cut the ones on my other tanks, I just used a razor knife. The plastic is pretty thin. I made the 2 cuts on the ends of the area I wanted to remove then scored along the long edge a few times. After I scored it, I just snapped it off. Cleaned up the edges with the razor and all done.

    That lip is just to rest the top onto. I wouldn't think it would weaken it any by trimming it down a bit. I have trimmed that part on a few tanks before with no ill effects.

    It looks to be a capnella. Mine fold up likethat for days on end every now and again. When they open up again it is larger than before. This is a part of their growing process. As long as it's not melting away, leave it be. It should bounce back in a few days or so. They like a moderate flow...

    Yeah that second link you can buy from. The first link was direct from NutriSea and they only sell by the pallet. I have used it in the past and it is great for small tanks or folks with a very large budget. Matter of fact, that is the water everybody used at MACNA in DC a couple years back...

    Nope, not posionus at all. You're thinking of the scorpion fishes which are somewhat similiar in body shape but have venomous dorsal spines.

    He's in his own tank. I do have a few small frags in with him and some macros but no other fish. I added a few grass shrimp but don't expect them to live long. This guy has been know to eat a 4 inch dwarf lion in one gulp. Anglers in general will at anything they think they can even if it is...

    Thanks guys. I'll try for mor pics this weeknd. Lights are out for him already. Tom it was listed as a sargassum angler (Histrio histrio) but I have come to believe that it is more likely a striated angler ( Antennarius striatus ). Frank over at Animal Kingdom had one last weekend when I...

    Best price on tanks in So Jersey?

    Best in South Jersey I would have to say is Discount Aqauarium on RT 73 in Marlton. Just north of the 70/73 intersection. Not a big or pretty store but there tanks are the cheapest I have found. It's the next traffic light past ILC, make a left onto RT 73 and it's maybe 1/4-1/2 mile up on the...

    Current USA lights out

    Sounds like a ballast went bad. I'd contact Current and see if they can send you a new one.
