Yes, that would be them I don't remember when those pictures were taken, but that fireclown is now 20 and still spawning, I think it is the bottles. Dance

You must have lived in a rich area, we just got a dot. When color TV was invented you always got the peacock and it would say "In Living Color" if it was in color which very little was.

He actually has 9 bottles in his tank, but what do I know. Make believe I posted pictures here of bottles.

Yes, that is correct. My Grandparents were born in Sicily so I use olive oil in my tank instead of seawater. Dance

Dam, I actually don't have a degree and didn't even go to college, there was that Viet Nam war thing and all. But I do have almost 60 years of fish keeping experience and a 42 year old reef tank that is thriving with 20 year old spawning fish. I am not sure if the guy in the Oceanagraphic...

I also remember that but do you remember John Neggy, the artist that used to also do that with the clear plastic on the TV? He tried to teach you how to paint. And do you also remember the glass you put on your black and white TV to make it look like color? You have to be older than 62 to...

Good because if you live near the ocean and you don't collect water, you may be a Sissy. Make believe there is a picture of me here in the sea collecting water with two Supermodels.:nervous

I already posted that a few pages up. (remember the thing about the walls where I got in trouble for posting) How come you believe the guy who answers the phone in Woods Hole Oceanagraphic institute who most likely doesn't have a goldfish tank, but you don't believe me? My feelings are dented...

I can do that, but then that entire box stays shaded, how do I get back to the post to add the image? I even tried drawing a picture on my monitor in crayon, but it still would not go on my post.. I mean I can just pay the 12 bucks to join the forum but I am concerned that even that won't work...

I did write my memoirs, you just read 8 pages of them Dance

I have been reading a lot lately and have decided to upgrade my aquarium practices to incorporate "all" of the advances in the hobby to get my fish in the best possable shape, even better than they were in the sea. I also want to eliminate "all" of my questionable practices so here is a synapsis...

Yes, maybe I will.

I would never do that. I am just having fun. :)

Jason, I have been collecting water in New York since the 60s and the fish and corals don't seem to know the difference. I also collect amphipods under the ice here in NY when it is 6 degrees and in those same tide pools when the water approaches 90. The water chemistry is the same as the oceans...

There are no walls in the ocean between your house and where your corals come from. Trust me, I have been there

Yes it does, thank you. Most people would just respond with something like "Duh" or "What"

You should be asking if anyone wants to use ASW or fake water. Virtually all of our animals came from real water. And you don't have to go out 30 miles or even 30'. I started my reef with NSW 42 years ago right near Manhattan and I still collect it every year. The water 3' out was 30 miles...

There are varying degrees of interest in this, and all hobbies. I don't exactly where I fall in this because it is not really a hobby for me but a way of life as I have always had a tank of some type. But I think many people get into this when they are older and see a beautiful tank and want...

Basically nothing but baking soda and driveway ice melter.

A lot of good information here. I would not add all those fish at the same time for a couple of reasons. First, that is a couple of hundred dollars worth of fish and second your tank is not cycled to add that many fish. I don't care what it says on your test kit a tank continually cycles in...
