You should also realize that just because you have an anemone and clowns, doesn’t mean that they will host in the anemone. I have a RBTA and two clowns for about two months. The clowns have never gone near the anemone. My guess is that it is up high in the tank (top 1/3), while they prefer to...

I might be wrong on this one, but I thought you had to be a member to participate in the meeting raffles. What say you, all knowledgable ones?

One last point...”felt” could be wool, a wool blend or totally synthetic. For filtering aquariums, fully synthetic would be the best, assuming it was made for that application. I’m done!

I want to clarify...I’m not saying definitively that the Michael’s felt is the cause of your problems. I only wanted to state that nonwovens, such as felt, have stuff in them that would leach out when exposed to water. Some of this stuff is “bug” food, while other stuff is “bug” poison (and...

Whoo...Houston we have a problem...nonwoven products have binders and other stuff in there to hold them together and keep them “fresh” (biocides).  I would not use fabrics that either I didn’t know the additives or that were not made for aquarium use.  Some (if not most) binders could raise...

It’s amazing what a little Snuggles Fabric Softener does to fluff things up...static free and cuddle fresh. ;D Looks fantastic!

We have to be careful we don’t show Jon the secret handshake until after he becomes a member ;D. Welcome Jon!

phylum Platyhelminthes…I like it. My new first guess.

I speak with great ignorance…but my guess is that it is not a Cephalopod (octopus family), but still could be part of the Mollusca Phylum. My second guess is Echinoderm Phylum…sea cucumber. Hard to tell from a static picture without seeing it up close and personnel…and that’s assuming it has no...

How do you get your RBTA to look like ET’s finger…”ET phone home!” BTW, nice pics.

I think I'm getting seasick! :P Actually it's pretty neat if the photos are taken in the same spot/focal lenght/etc.

Thanks for the advice. All glued up and after 3 or 4 hours, the little buggers are starting to open back up. Actually now have four different zoos on one rock. Thanks once again.

Someone has waaaaaayyyyyy too much time on their hands :o :o :o. By the way, when I was maybe 7 or 8, my neighbor and I thought we had invented a new sandwich and were going to be rich. Peanut Butter (chunky) and bologna on toasted white bread...the best. This was back in the late 50’s, early...

Here’s another newbie query - one of the zoo frags that was purchased at The Swap has come off the tile plug. It’s lying down in the sand bed. What should I do? Reglue?? Nothing?? And if I reglue, I need detail...never done this before...although I have that acrylate glue. Thanks, Paul

To get the “comb” effect, I would use a router on a router table.  After doing this, I would make a mold (out of wood…1/4 inch plywood), and place the acrylic on the mold and put it in my oven at the lowest setting (warm).  Wait until it has formed around the mold and you now have the overflow...

By the way, the 10 to 12 “unknowns” that were in the tank have seemed to have disappeared. The only changes that were made after they arrived: 1. Changed from cf’s to T5 lights. 2. Boosted Mg (after finally purchasing a Mg test kit).

Ditto the THANK YOU! My dad is a WWII Marine and they just celebrated their 233rd birthday with a dinner on Monday. Semper Fi.

I have a Zilla Digital Power strip that looks just like the Coralife…this is scary stuff! I would guess the Zilla and Coralife are the same power strips. It is UL listed…for what it’s worth. I need to repeat the same question daveh asked: Can anyone verify that the Zilla is manufactured by the...

Saw Steve’s (sgarron), tank up close and personal...absolutely phenomenal build...first class. Glad to see pnoy continued the build thread. Great tank...keep it going pnoy! Definitely want to see pic’s.

I can't tell you first hand, but they are a sponsor of NJRC, so my guess is yes! Give them a call.
