I killed the 13g frag, so I'm at 3. This one is going to be monti specific top, mushroom specific low. The 25g is zoa only, the 10 is xenia.

Thanks much! Filled it and dropped a lot of biomedia in from other tank as well as some Special Bend. Got the first diatome breakout already, 6 days in, its cycling a bit quicker than expected.

Wow! Nice work on the cabinet, looks great.

Reef tanks only need patients if they have surgeonfish. :) But agreed. When I started it was all about machines and testing. Now its about; are my lights set well (aka 'lets try this for a few days'), did I do a small water change (every week or two), is my flow still optimal (finger in front...

In the nano systems with a 10% a week (a 5g bucket covers both my 20s and my 10) I haven't bothered checking anything in over a year. All is well. And I do miss the odd week every so often. If I see something off with the corals (some acting out of sorts or staying closed for extended periods)...

I do 10% once a week. I’ve gone for much longer but, during those times, tend to lose growth and even have some corals (softies) receed. Since getting back in the habit of 1x per week, just to keep alk and nutrients boosted, i’ve seen a considerable rebound in coral color and growth.

Hey Paul, You're doooooooooommmmmeeed. But you already know that. I dropped from a 85g and a 90g to the nanos. I'm doing a number of IM nano tanks at the moment (10, 20, and 25). Each has a simple ATO, 2x50w heaters, upgraded media baskets, and the one with SPS has an upgraded pump, thats it...

I know a little due to delving into it over the past year. Long post, snowy morning, no work. You can try to predict an items performance based on the other stock listed companies it supplies to. I don't think you can track a commodity, or there is interest in a commodity, until it is required...

There a restaurant supply shop near me in Point Pleasant that carries every type of container under the sun. I'll stop in over the weekend and see if they have any.

'The EverFish'. Freshwater, standard goldfish/carpy thing. Got in Upstate NY, generic store, 50 cents. I was a student living in a non-AC attic. Heatwave arrives. Apartment hit 110F. All fish died with exception of EF. Graduate 4 years later. EF follow me to another region of NY. Then moves with...

All items for trade! Looking for COLORFUL and not crazy to manage SPS and mushrooms. Located in Brick but can bring to meet. Any new items have a price, but will accept a frag trade instead. Any used items are free, original price is listed. If you'd like to offer a frag trade it would be...

Heya J, I'm going to measure for the skimmer tomorrow. May be interested.

Mark, Lemme know if you do. I have a few things I'm interested in. BTW, lemme know if you're ready for the wrasse, I'll start trying to lure him out with fish porn and omelettes or something.

Mark? At UC? Holy carp! Hope its not too bad Mark! We're pullin' for ya! Remember, if the docs treat you with copper it has to be in an empty house and you can't touch your family for a month.

I have a number of flower anems, 3 I purchased from ACC, but, last time I went in for a sale on them I had the same thing happen (may have been the same type sale). The nice lookers were $60+. I left without anything and purchased 3 Ultras elsewhere (at $75 for the 3). Same sometimes happens...

Was looking to pick up a mount and u-bend tube for a Frankenstein ATO I'm putting together. Saw the prices and almost choked - $25+ for an ATO float mount?! So, plastic lid and scissors led to... Add a lighter and a bit more scissor work (measure twice on the height)... and then add a...
