    Welcome To NJRC! Take a minute to introduce yourself

    Welcome Larissa, as I mentioned to beerfish, lets get a “Tale of the Tank” thread going for that 75…and we want to see pictures. It’s great to see the progress from a rock pile to corals and fish.

    new acquisition

    Wow! That’s pretty neat. Not sure about the diet of this little guy, but from my diving days in Florida I can tell you that the “common” octopus down there love shellfish. You knew there was a home of an octopus because of all the conch shells scattered around a hole. Accordingly, I’d be a...

    "Supermarket" Cleaner Clams

    My thoughts on keeping the clams out: · They come from temperate waters while our tanks are tropical. · Could be introducing foreigner creatures / bacteria / disease into the tank. · They are filter feeders and the way we micron sock and super skim and filter our water, not the mention all the...

    Really Unusual Aquarium for Auction in Montclair

    That's my guess as well..overall height being eight feet. So I'd guess the tank is about 5 1/2 feet high. Come on...we need a club member who has a cathederal ceiling to buy this puppy. I’ll help you move it!

    CAN SOMEONE ID THIS HITCH HIKER

    It appears to be the felineophilia…a very nasty hitchhiker that is found in both fresh and saltwater systems. They are, for the most part, reef safe in part because of their distaste for wet feet. However, there appetite for fish is legendary. In fact they have been known to play with their...

    Britain's Got Talent: Susan Boyle

    I’m the optimist. What I see is a diamond in the rough. For all you neigh sayers I say, to quote Edith Ann, “pffffffffffffffffffffffft.” (A big unvoiced linguolabial trill to you…i.e. a rasberry.)

    Buying Trex

    I agree with paintman about utilizing the hidden fastening system. It gives you a very nice clean look. I also liked his “5 ¼” reference….lol. It is actually said as five quarter and written 5/4. What this means is the thickness of the “wood” before finish surfacing…that is, originally 1 ¼...

    What type of algae is this?

    Gogol, to me it sounds like you have a cyanobacteria problem…not hair algae. Check Alk and pH, increase flow, make sure skimmer is working fine, do water changes and watch your feeding. It most likely is a nutrient problem. I think the only think that might touch cyano are turbo’s….and that’s a...

    Light for 40G, 24" high tank [6X 39W T5HO or 250W MH + 4X 39W T5HO]

    It sounds like you picked up a pendant light that typically “hangs” inside a canopy OR “hangs” on longer cables coming down from the ceiling.

    DURSO TUNING help

    I think I see your problem with all the air. You are going from a 1” diameter pipe, under siphoning free flow to a 2” diameter pipe. That is a four fold increase in area and with simple free flow, it turns into a mixing chamber. The 1 inch column of water meets, in effect, 3 inches of air...
