    Red bugs in the nano

    Where did you put the monti? How much light are they getting? Red bugs don't touch montis so they are not the culprit if they look bad.

    Proof You Can Beat Hair Algae

    Clowns and Dottyback Free to a good home 08742

    These fish are coming from a tank that was broken down by Nicole's aunt. They are thin as they were not really taken care of hence the fact they are back in our hands. We do not have the room for them nor do we want to keep another tank running. We are leaving for Vegas on Saturday and we...

    Acclimating corals to led's

    Spongedes is a low light coral, so two things are going to factor into it. Where is the coral in your tank? Intensity of the LEDS. Over your 27g they are a lot of power, I would start a little lower maybe around 35% and work your way up.

    June 2012 meeting

    I did not have my camera but I know Bob has one and he really needs to take some pics of his tank, it looks really really good.

    My 110 high reef tank (heavy on pictures)

    Glad to hear you got the RODI and you are getting 0 TDS. This will help you out a lot. The DI membrane is made to get that last couple TDS out of the water. Between the sediment filter, carbon block and RO membrane, you can usually get your TDS down to 1-5ish but the DI is what really gets...

    June 2012 meeting

    Bob thank you for opening up your house to us it was a wonderful meeting. We both had a great time and it was good to see some new faces along with the old. Big thank to AO for the awesome frags and HerbieK for dropping off his normal "frags" for the raffle. Thanks again and great to see...

    Jimroth's Big Ol' Tank

    I would look at the mazzarras or if you can be patient, the AI Vegas which are not out yet. There are a ton of options for LEDs right now and that is only growing by the day.

    Gas prices dropping...$3.11 /3.36 at Costco off route 1, Edison, NJ

    Oil traded below 80 today so hopefully it continues its downward slide.

    Jimroth's Big Ol' Tank

    Sucks to hear, we lost power as well for several hours, our neighbors on three sides had power but not us. Luckily nothing blew and we did not hook up our vortech backup battery but when we do I will absolutely keep an eye on it. I know there was an issue with one of the cords that they issued...

    Here's my Big Office System

    After these moves and times in the holding tanks, your SPS still looks amazing. I can't wait to see it grow once it is settled down into your home system.

    Floor reinforcement ?'s

    Don't forget the weirdos in spandex who would show up to try and sabotage his tank through over elaborate schemes and dim henchmen. Then all of those words just appearing out of nowhere could cause epilespsy. Yeah I would not recomend it.

    can you mix diferent crabs

    A huge +1 to what Jeff just said. People don't realize how large sally lightfoot crabs get and they are nasty feeders. I would pull one out immediately if you have one or just not get one. Pom poms are great crabs for a nano. They are very reclusive and will not be visible in a large reef...

    zoa pox, any success stories?

    I have had great success with Furan II and I know others on here who have had success as well. Really simple treatment, dip once a week for three weeks and boom your zoas are healthy.

    cleaning up rock rubble in refugium

    How long has it been established? Can you take the fuge offline completely when you do the change? What is the total water volume you are working with?

    The 210 tank build

    I am sure by some of the posts we have made we are upgrading for the last time. This is going to take some time and we don't even have the tank yet but I wanted to start the old build thread. I am still finalizing some of the equipment and build aspects but at least I can get something...

    When do Cleaner Shrimp Eggs Hatch

    I don't know how long they carry the eggs, as ours pretty much stay with eggs constantly. As soon as they hatch within a few days they will be carrying again. After a while you can get a feel by looking at the size of the eggs and the color and know they are going to hatch soon.

    Not sure..

    Also what size is your tank? That rabbitfish can also cause some damage as well. However, I agree with Jim that is is probably your tangs doing battle.
