Alright, the April event is in manasquan and you are in manasquan, I think we are just all going to have to come over for an impromptu meeting after the meeting to see this thing. In all seriousness that whole setup look amazing.

The thing you have to realize is the fish you have now is a juvenile. In a couple of years it might turn into a nasty, aggressive, tail nipping machine. I hope all goes well for you and that does not happen. In this hobby we are dealing with live animals which all have their own personalities...

Thank you for the compliments. We got our amikami from Greg at Reef to Reptiles and he has them priced way way lower than DD. The flaming prawn came from Trop but I know they have not had them in a while.

The standard thinking in the hobby is that the "correct" temp for a tank is 78-80 degrees. Some people run 80-82 and have great success and some people run 70-72 with great success. From what I have seen and heard if you go around 85 degrees or higher that is when you will start losing things...

Olivier was up yesterday and we spent more time looking at the 12g then the other two tanks. The 12g really is an awesome tank, I set this tank up in November 2008 and it has been a solid tank since. The live rock was all live rock (we got it before real rock) and the life on it is amazing...

Time for the newest addition and probably one of the favorite things in my tank atm. Defending his favia:

Updated pics time: Here are two more shots of the akimani gobies. This guy was in a real tough spot to get a picture but I had to try. You can see the cool marking on him: We had a flaming prawn goby sighting and were able to grab the camera. Like bigfoot, these pics are always blurry but...

Holy cow, this thing is amazing. Thank you so much. It is staying in the 12g where we can appreciate it. It look amazing and is eating well.

We did get the shrimp, (pics up shortly) so you have dibs on the fish.

Will have to pick one of those up next time they come around.

Thank you all for the responses, the nem has found a new home. Keep an eye our here if it decides to split.

I have tons of zoas and palys and I know any one of them can make me sick in a heartbeat, but it is a risk you take in the hobby. I have just heard to many bad tales about green/brown button polyps that they are not welcome in my tank. Unfortunately they are well suited for the aquarium as...

Green or brown button polyps can be a problem all their own that is why I recommended getting rid of them. They can grow fast and be invasive. Also the toxic levels in them are some of the highest among zoas and palys (I know all of them are toxic). I know people on this board who moved them...

I would kill them.

Happy Birthday, enjoy Florida.

There will be an RSVP thread up shortly for an official head count. Just to let everyone know there will be a buffet style lunch served that is free of charge. That is right, there is no cost to come to this event to see an amazing speaker, raffle amazing frags, and have a great lunch.

Tank is stunning, well done on the rescue.

This is not a split, we have decided to get rid of our orginal RBTA as it is just too unpredictable and a coral killing machine. We are upgrading soon and we decided this has no room in our upgrade plans. This guy is probably 8 inches across when opened up and really is a stunning animal. We...

We have been using vortechs since 2009 when I picked up my first mp10 at MACNA. We ran that pump for years and even at full blast never heard a peep out of it and it still has the original wet side. When we upgraded tanks we picked up an mp20 and again no problems with the pump at all. In...

Event goes to 5, so any time up until then. I will the full schedule up later, just have to tweak a few things.
