reeflo also makes good external pumps. I bought mine used from austin (on this site) for a great deal. I use a reeflo tarpon (thing is huge and takes up a lot of real estate so if this is going under the stand, not the best idea). Mine does downstairs into the basement so I've got room to...

I actually just added a domino damsel to my 120. It will be the last fish. All my fish gave chase a bit but I knew the damsel was tough enough to handle it. The real concern was the yellow tail damsel. Basically the domino inhabits the upper part of the tank...eats like a pig too. So in a...

There is a wee bit of cursing so I would have to say this is NSFW (not suitable for work). It can't be that deep there but i dunno anything about saltwater fishing. I do know if this happened to me I would have been screaming too. Skip to the action at the 38 second mark. <a...

Lasers....wait you expect me to talk? No Mr. Bond I expect you to die. HAHAHAHA

I agree with the above and would add fatherree's book on clams if you are interested in keeping clams. http://www.amazon.com/Giant-Clams-Aquarium-James-Fatherree/dp/0978619404/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1341705830&sr=8-2&keywords=fatherree

just hit petco and pick up some plastic plants. Ugly but effective. or you could go the (gasp) fake corals route.

unfortunately i have to agree with nikki and paul. I even tried adding 3 juvis to a tank with a mated pair. The female of the pair was the mother but the "step" dad didn't like two of the three for some random reason or other. First they persecuted one little guy (had to fish out) then they...

panmanmatt is the resident sea horse guru on this board - i'm sure he will chime in. I highly doubt sea stars will eat sea horses. The problem with keeping SH in general are: They are slow eaters They really should be kept in a species only tank They typically prefer cooler temps than what we...

stupid question but what color grain sand do you have....you're sure it's not sand stuck to the mucus?

I'm going to be in the minority here but my 2 cents - if i were strapped for time and cash i would seriously consider breaking down, sell. Pouring more investments into it when you are strapped for time is not going to end well. Lacking money is not too bad because everyone here will help out...

when it rains it pours...although at least you do have that avatar to at least take some solace...

ouch....all i can say is that don't rush to toss it yet...i had a validia that i thought was dead, and then my rbta walked over it to compound matters - but somehow someway it's survived...not as pretty but it made it. HOpefully that is the case with your corals....but ugh sorry to hear.

what are you going to keep in there?

+1. Anyways non-reefers always love the wavy stuff and comment on how beautiful it is. Sps sticks? meh... Anyways sps that are a bit less sensitive such as orange cap monitpora or idaho grape cap etc might work better in your tank. People have mentioned how their sunset monti is...

how old are the lights in the nano vs the 44? are they the same mixture of ATI or whatever brand bulb mix?

i replaced my old compressor and got a frigidaire 3 ton 16 seer. This past heat wave was not even noticable - the thing actuallly turned off. That never happened with my old piece of junk. I got the NJ clean energy rebate too which helped to defer the steep cost. Overall i'm happy with the...

bummer i missed the meeting but i was there to see wil pick out the frags. They looked awesome!

+1.

I'm sure you get can cheaper gas further south in jersey, but if you happen to be driving up route 1 to Menlo Park or something - consider a pit stop here. It's off (going northbound) Exit 2A (southbound, exit at metuchen 3 and drive local) on I287 or two traffic lights down vineyard road off...

+1. btw - i fixed the pics for you. Just click on the icon that says "insert image", choose "URL" and then paste it in. I unclick the check box also...but play around if you want to try it.
