    Thank You to All NJ Reefers!

    Herb, Shame to see you shutting down. Hopefully we’ll still see you about occasionally at some of the bigger parties. Best to you and tour family, and until we catch up again the legend will live on.

    If you see the first 2 photos on page 1 I built a false wall/AIO system. I'm using floss in the first chamber (which is so crazy I wont try to describe the build), a load of marinepure in the second chamber with a bag of carbon and a small amount of phosban, and the return in the 3rd. Dual...

    biocube & keep healthy Copepod population

    I have to say I do. I won't order unless they're doing a free shipping deal, but when I do order I'm always more than happy with the product. The pods are varied from tiny to very large and theres much more than expected. As said previously, I end up picking up jumpers from the countertops and...

    OK, so, I decided to hold off on the rockwall pieces as I made a serious design error, which is OK, as I've learned. Engineering = learning from failures. BUT! The tank is still go and is still holding up well. As detailed in another post I was having trouble keeping xenia alive in the new...

    biocube & keep healthy Copepod population

    I've ordered a few times from Aquarium depot. Regardless of experiences with corals and such from there (not good) their pods always amaze me for the amount and variation in size. I've ordered 3 times in past few years and have literally had them jumping onto the kitchen counter when I've opened...

    65 Gallon Tank with Oak Base/Top.

    I'd grab it in a minute but its a matter of logistics as I'm 90 minutes away with nothing capable of transporting it. I seriously can not believe that someone hasn't snagged this.

    biocube & keep healthy Copepod population

    Nope, just drop them into your sump. I've got some been in sump for years and they look fine. They have a massive surface area for bacteria and a single block can act as a considerable amount of live rock. I break mine up a bit before dropping them in and they're always covered with pods.

    biocube & keep healthy Copepod population

    If you can see a few during the day wait until night and hit a rock with a flashlight. Then just stare for a bit. When you focus in you'll probably find you have tons all over the place, assuming theres not a mandarin or wrasse in the tank. I use Marinepure blocks broken up in my sumps. They act...
