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.
bryopsis is bad no question but I really think if you plucked down enough $$$ on a few gallons of Kent Tech M and maintained that artificially high amt of mag, you should be ok.
For the record I had a bad case of bryopsis and was manually pulling it (along with my hair on my head). A steady...
just to add - you can't measure the sump size based on the stand size. You have to measure the sump size based on the width of the door on the stand. Otherwise you can't get the sump in. :p
Now one method to get around this is to "drop" the sump in from above but then it's a one-and done...
i've not done this but this would be something to consider asking trop if they could price also since you may not be personally interested in drilling a tank.
hmm there used to be a place to add "reviews" of places but i think it might have been deleted. Will have to talk to the officers about maybe putting something up. You should see some reviews though in retail experiences.
btw for internet sellers, I've had great success with the following: (not necessarily in any order)
marinedepot.com
premiumaquatics.com
championlighting.com
thatfishplace.com (although not exactly an internet-only place as do actually have a huge retail site in pennsylvania)
also for rodi - i...
Hate to ask but did you QT the fish prior to introduction or just add him in?
If you QT'd before and then this happened it would make me think something in your tank is killing the fish.
If you did not QT then the possibilities are many. For example, it was never net caught and had bad...
hey paul - that was me...its in my tale of the tank from 4 years ago...LOL.

I wrote an email to Dr. Ron Shimek about it and he explained to me that the black sand manufactured will sometimes have...
hey - i don't have frogspawn but hordes of hammer coral and can easily give you a frag if this one dies. In your pic, does that sexy shrimp always hang around the coral like that or is it thinking dead coral= food?
it's such a shame but years back there was a member on here from howell and her tank was AMAZING. I would have said just go to her house and get some frags.
I think LFS will be dependent on literally what is "Local" in the LFS. With me I really like shopping at Aquatic Obsessions. While sq...
Bless her heart for having this guy as her hubby....she must have the patience of a saint. I admit it was funny though!

That's sad but it makes sense as more and more people move away from print to digital. I noticed that AFI will continue to exist as fishchannel.com so it's not like everyone there will lose jobs.
it's hard to mimic the shoaling aspect in fish that looks so amazing. That stated 3 fish will not really "shoal" effectively. I think as they mature you would just get a pair and a third wheel.
Isn't a blasto a LPS? Ergo while the shrimp may dine of the larger polyps, it should not necessarily equate hard corals like SPS to be food. So a tank with plats, montis etc would seem fine with the shrimp...or is that illogical?
