Ahh, that explains the trip. And, yea, assuming you are talking about TM Pro... it's a great price as is, but I'm willing to wait a few days to see if they do drop it for the sale, just in case. ;)

Yea, I will definitely do it properly for future inverts. It doesn't look hard, I just didn't know that was how it's supposed to be done before it was too late. I'm probably going to get a conch to replace the star They are just harder to find locally. And I know of the sea hare and have read...

You drove all the way down here for salt Richie? Haha, I'm sure you had intentions on getting other stuff since it's so far away. Anyway, yea, the sale is for their 20th anniversary. They do have the event listed it on their website, they just don't have pricing... it's the link up top that...

I do have a couple 3" PVC fittings in the QT, but Dory seems to be content with hiding next to the heater. I think it will be fine with hiding back there until I put it into the main tank. Well, the group buy order got canceled again due to lack of communication from the supplier. So, I decided...

The last post each of you made were extremely helpful! I thought that I needed both copper and lower salinity to keep ick out of my main tank, regardless of whether the new fish showed signs or not. The hippo tang doesn't show any signs of ick that I can tell (no white spots, no itching, etc.)...

Hmm, I guess I'll have to check the ingredients on the flakes I have before I go buy anything. Mnat, yea, I have heard great things about Rod's food and almost bought some when I picked up the tang. I should have because I don't think they sell it locally here in SJ (if someone does, please...

Thanks for the tips on the hippo JR. The salesman actually instructed me to lower the salinity a bit, so I started it at 1.023 in the QT tank. I'll just gradually add some fresh ro/di water over the next couple days to get it to the ranges you suggested. I've also been using a copper sulfate to...

Well, after a week of vacation and catching up at work, I haven't had much time to post my progress. Here's a small update. I never did get the bubble algae out and the bubbles have now turned into what I can only describe as whitish/green stalks. The good news is there are only about a dozen...

Looks great! By the way, what size Vortech are you running on that?

I haven't been able to get the bubbles out yet because I've been trying to get some things done around the house before I leave for vacation on sunday. The bubbles have changed in appearance a little. They now have a dark spot at the top of each one, but the good news is that they don't seem...

Yea, and someone had recommended that place to me so I was excited to see what they had that day. I guess I missed out on a good LFS. :(

I think you are right Jcurry. It looks just like This stuff. I'll try to get it out (intact) ASAP. Thanks!

Thanks for the input JR! I'll certainly take it all into consideration. Especially the tang suggestions and keeping corals grouped by type. I also had planned for either a conch or cucumber (or both) but not until I get enough fish to give them something to clean up. Crabs I'm not sure about...

OK, this is as close as I could get without making it blurry: If you focus on the bottom of the pic, near the little indent, you will see a couple bubbles below the right side on the sand, a single bubble further out to the right on the sand, and on the inside of the indent (on the right side)...

Thanks guys. I'll definitely get a pic tonight.

Great info in this thread. Thanks for posting gang. Anyone know of a good link for T5 bulb reviews and/or write-ups? I'm interested in info on the different colors and how they affect corals, etc.

The $25 stand is pending sale to Ricwilli!

Thanks JR! Can't wait until the rock gets some color. Some of the white pieces are starting to get some pink covering and the one large piece on the bottom left of the cave/tunnel is starting to turn dark purple. That piece is also starting to get covered in brownish hair algae though. Should...

Well, unfortunately I never got a chance to take extra pics last night so I'll have to do it tonight instead. However I did remember one more thing I'm going to be selling. It's the stand for that 135g tank. It's made by AGA and came with the tank. I believe it's Pine with an "Oak" stain...

A while ago I had an AGA 135g tank that I was drilling holes in the side. Well, after drilling the holes but before I could get the tank in the house to set it up, I cracked the bottom glass panel while moving it on the concrete garage floor. I recently just setup my 75g tank and needed to make...
