My brother went to stony brook and as I recall it was about a 2 1/2 hr drive from MANHATTAN to get there! The LI Aquarium is even further east in riverhead and there is zero probability in my opinion of getting there from NJ in under 3 hrs. The bridge/tunnel will murphy's law you, then you...

+1 Sorry to hear this.

As summer approaches I'm sure my family will be at AA more often - can I stop downstairs to help check on the tank or do I need to send an email/call ahead to get clearance/approval/access? Right now I don't have any firm dates I can come down - but it's always been something I have wanted to...

I'm with CJ on thinking about the broncos. In case you didn't watch the AFC divisional game between the patriots and the broncos, you'd have seen a not-great NE passrush destroy the O-line of the broncos. The best receiver (DT? or concussed Decker?) the broncos have probably couldn't even...

Back when saturday night live was actually fun to watch, a certain character would like to say "Well isn't that SPECIAL"? I'm guessing all the giants fans are saying that right now about the jets trading for tebow. More importantly I give the jets fans 4 games worth of patience before they...

fires are beautiful but they do hide almost like 90% of the time except when you feed em! I love cleaners too but I actually skipped them for my tank for fear that they tear food out of my corals. It's a give or take thing since I guess you could just feed more heavily and then they should...

rough going...i've seen that happen and it's frustrating! Thankfully these days lately my problem is similar to george's in that mine has grown and grown. I'll post up a Don't break the chain soon once I frag it. Mine is more branching coral...not sure if george's is the wall type...looks...

HAHAHAH listen - i defy stereotypes and was passable in english but turrible turrible (as charles barkley says) in math. LOL.

Cleaner shrimp help but are useless if the ich is in the gills or in the egg/swimming stage. I'm not sure if true or not but I also read that sometimes the cleaners just cause the ich to burrow deeper into the fish (not helping, but makes it look to us like it cleared up). In the wild it...

LOL...I'm sure if you post them up on the other unofficial for sale forum (RC) you'll get these taken off your hands. Good luck!

yes - ! a cube...which is like what 3 feet in diameter?

Also keep in mind that for many people coming in from freshwater - it would seem that one fish is great, but two fish are even better for breeding. In saltwater it tends not to be the case since it is difficult to sex the fish and you could end up with two of the same gender and all out war in...

I could be wrong by Paul doesn't have a 150. He was referring to the tank the tangs came from. What was that - samsky's tank - the circular 150? Or was it a rimless 150? I remembered he had a problem with carpet surfers...:p or maybe it wasn't him.

+1 to chillys' comment on the tang. Bummer. That video of the cleaner shrimp is awesome. I've seen them jump on tangs and such - but never a smaller fish like an anthia like that.

Ugh anthony that's tough - sorry to hear the loss. I think your choices are limited to: Attempt to remove the remaining fish, you want to get the tank empty (fallow) and wait 6~8 weeks. OR Heavily feed (some swear by garlic), keep changing water and hope that the fish will eventually be...

Are you supposed to put large pools of water like that right next to the school like that? It seems like a risk to me - but I know zero civil engineering....hahaha. Anyways - it sounds great. Will you be adding fish to the mix? Or will this be a giant mosquito breeding factory? Sorry - i am...

tagging along...i'm not convinced my existing one is any good either...

you and me both....!!!!!

If skimmers could talk, I bet this one is saying....MY GOODNESS this tank NEEDS ME!!!!!! Your old skimmers quote would probably be: "i wasn't paid enough to do work on this thing". LOL!!!

Those are some amazing pics! You could send them to Dr. Ron Shimek if you want (on your own dime) and if he has time he could make a 100% accurate assessment. He has his own forum on marine depot. i was under the impression pyrams are parasitic and attack only snails or clams. not both. I...
