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.
Glad to hear you're doing well and congratz on the family "upgrades. :cool: Much of the crowd around here is different since you've been gone, but I think the newer members are worth getting to know... so pop in once in a while and let us know how things are going. How about some shots of the...
After reading the reviews on Amazon and then reading the thread that jgraz linked, the post by "West Mariculture" seemed suspiscious. The "West" part stuck out since the person named by Dave Marra in that thread was "Paul West". So, looking up the info on our new registered user who posted...
Yea, this one has nothing to do with our LFS.
It really is sad. If this guy would break all those laws to fill his store... makes you wonder how much he really cared about his customers and the well being of their livestock purchases. :(
Thank you Bob and Michelle for opening your beautiful homes to us for this meeting. Bob, the back yard was perfect for entertaining and the food was awesome! The tank was looking good too.
Michelle and your daughter (sorry didn't catch her name) were fantastic and made it seem as if it was a...
Yes, downbeach does have the BM CS Hero 180 for his tank. I know because he and I bought that model at the same time (I'm upgrading to a 120g) from:

We actually got them for $265 each at...
No problem, just send me a PM or call me if you decide you want to come over.
Also, if you're feeling brave, you could get a glass cutter at HD or Lowes to trim off 1" from each piece. The kind that you just score the glass over and over until it cuts through is what I mean. As long as you...
A lot of good advice already given, so not much more I can add.
I know the budget is the deciding factor, but I know that if I had a basement... there's nothing that would stop me from setting up the sump down there. There are just too many benefits to not find a way IMO. Not only will it...
That's what I was thinking too. If this is strictly from bulkhead to sock (no split offs) then I'd recommend just using a flexible hose instead of all of that.
The only reason I see a need for valve and union would be the return line, so you can remove the pump easy for maintenance. That...
Asking for trades is not allowed in the DBTC forum. This is strictly for giving away items only.
Please change your request so that a trade is not required or create a new thread under the appropriate forum (Deals and Steals).
Sad that that is all that remains of such a beautiful tank Brian. At least you were able to save a good portion though and with time you will be back as good or better than ever.
As some of you may have noticed, we had to change our permissions due to spammers plaguing our forums. In order to prevent them from posting malicious links, we had to prevent the entire "registered users" group from including URL's in their posts. This resulted in the inability for registerd...
Hmm, my blue tang also has the same symptoms. I thought for the longest time (almost a year now) that the "flaky" skin was just due to it darting in and out of rocks. After reading up on this, I think my tang has MHLLE too. :sorrow:
It started out with blotchy areas around the nose/face and...
My neon dottyback is the most timid fish I have, well except for maybe my mandarin goby. I think with most fish in the hobby, aggressiveness varys within each class type.
I believe other factors affect whether a new fish will be aggressive such as available hiding places, size of the tank...
Good to hear from you Brandon. Sadly, the 120 is still a work in progress as I'm still working on the stand/canopy/side cabinet project. But I'm getting closer!
Sounds like volunteering at the VA aquarium would be fun and educational. Hope you get in.
