That's really interesting. Do you dip it with FWE or Lugols before this? I know we're talking corals here - but I picked up an interesting acclimation method from Dr. Ron for snails. He suggested taking the snail and holding it at the water level until it "attached" to the tank wall. Then the...

Not a fisherman...really just have questions for the folks who do fish...and anyone that's seen a raccoon in action. According to the woman...the fish's tail was mangled because... the boyfriend stepped on the fish to hold it down (and it wasn't damaged via a commercial net), and the head...

For the tivo you can purchase separately a wireless connector that will then refresh it's tv listings/schedule via your cable modem (assuming you have one) rather than dragging a phone line to connect to the box.

are we voting because I second Billy's suggestion! ;)

Thanks for the post Carlo - it was a little hard to read because I wasn't always sure if Ron was talking in italics or not...lol. The post just reinforces my own feelings of complete and total inadequacy when it comes to really understanding our reefs. I would submit though that the actual...

I can't speak to REEFBOOSTER, but...(the 411 on b-digest): "BIO DIGEST is composed with nitrifying and dénitrifying bacterial strains selected for their capacity to transform the ammonia into nitrites, the nitrites into nitrates and nitrates into nitrogen. They are guaranteed free from genetic...

We have oral b. Hmm - never thought about them being loud but come to think of it - they are like a mini-lawn mower...lol. I guess we're just used to the sound. I never tried a sonicare...my dentist suggested the oral b to me years ago so that's what I've stuck with.

After reading this, no matter what my girls say - I'm not getting these for them... By SARAH KARUSH, Associated Press WriterMon Sep 17, 7:47 PM ET At rail stations and shopping malls around the world, reports are popping up of people, particularly young children, getting their toes caught in...

Aquatic Obsessions is having a sale to celebrate its anniversary...i don't think they had this particular brand but maybe you could ask them. Good luck!

great info thanks!

a bmup (even though it didn't go down) to remind people to vote!

We've been in the new house for almost a year and the water is just terrible when compared with tap in manhattan. It appears to be very very hard with mineral residue. Would like to know if anyone out there went ahead and procured a water softener (e.g. from Home Depot). Are these things...

the quake was supposedly a 6.6...so the tank is fine! lol. Actually Singapore is a pretty advanced/modern nation - it was nicknamed one of the five tigers in east asia (along with taiwan, hong kong, japan, and south korea). The country also sits geographically in a zone that will experience...

really nice...i wish I could have done 1/4 of that work. I ended up just paying money to contractors to get our place up to snuff...and it's still a money pit!!!! Nothing like cats and smokers in a house. I recall visiting a house and the realtor went downstairs (where the owners kept who knows...

welcome!

...speaking of protein skimmers - is there one in your tank? Maybe you mentioned it in another post but I don't see it mentioned in this thread. Nitrates can be controlled somewhat with water changes and a good skimmer. The refugium (assuming you regularly prune the macro) will also help. Some...

never heard of that fish - at first I thought you were talking about a sebae clown/amphiprion sebae. Did you put a mono sebae in your reef tank? I've never had any success with fish catching without major rock removal. I read an article once about how some fish have a few minutes of...

Cool setup! Is the 270g sump behind those tanks or did you drill through the floor somewhere?

That is so cool! My wife and I purchased our first home and she gave me a bill for the new kitchen. :'( LOL! Though I am truly on her good side now and have staked out room in the house for the (hopefully upgraded) tank. ;D
