Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
When they redid photobucket they added an editing tab (or I did not see if before) and it actually is pretty good. I wanted to show you guys what some pics look like when edited.
I shoot with a Nikon D3100 with the stock lens (want to get a macro soon). Under the LEDs in my Display, the true...

Thank you everyone. Even with the fish room and trying to simplify things we do put some work in. Before the photo shoot we were in the basement for like 2.5 hours as Nikki said earlier going over the frags and whatnot to make sure they were algae and pest free. Having a fish room makes...
We have a garbage can in the garage if you want it, we used it to cure rocks in so that has been its purpose. Before that it was a water change barrel so it is good to go.
You need to install a manifold into your plumbing which is essentially a bunch of ball valves in a row. This way you can run each reactor off of a valve and meter the amount of flow going to each reactor. How many valves you have is going to determine which pump you use. I will post a picture...
The last photo, for the old school acro heads, True Oregon Blue Tort. Almost lost this piece but he is growing back very well. Bluer than anything else in the tank and no green on him at all like the Cali Tort:
That is all for me for now.

So I took 300 pictures today and trimmed it down into the 80s. That is what happens when you don't take pics for a while and everything is going pretty well. I will start with the DT:
The coraline algae is really taking off so the rocks are really looking good, not white like they first were...
14g is a tough size for wrasses, especially ones that are beneficial to corals. Here is an article on possum wrasses, they can be quite striking in color and would be better for a smaller tank. They are not active crazy swimmer which is why you could get away with one in a 14g...
