That sounds like it's a good bet. The room is always at least 70 deg, now that summer has really kicked in PLUS the heaters in the room are still on...we don't use the heater anymore (custodians are nice, they let me keep the windows open). the only light that reaches it is the schools...

Lol! I spoke to them about how much this hobby costs, but that since we can propagate the corals we could eventually just sell them off and have a pizza party at the end of the semester. :) They liked that. But I'm trying to ...well...not kill capitalism...but...I don't want them to associate...

Lol, I saw someone doing that on one of their tanks here in Jersey, I can't remember his handle but he said it worked for him! I will try it though, the kids will get a kick out of it. Yup, we take about a cup of water out of the tank, pour in maybe 3-5mm worth of eggs, and let it sit until...

:) Updates! There is an RBTA hiding amongst the zoa/paly colonies and another clown in a cave. Neither of them pay any attn to the RBTA. There are some other critters in there as well. There is a black sun coral piece in there, and a leather coral piece in there. So far only 1 casualty: Large...

OMG! That is the most awesome thing I've heard in awhile! I'll actually be able to go (hopefully) and it's being run by people I know! Swwweeeeettt! Think if the bragging rights :)

Oh, luckily I bought a bit package that has those in it. I don't really trust using that method though, not for me...not until I can perfect it. I'd prefer the drill hole in one shot kind of thing, luckily I do have a broken down 10g with maybe 2 good panes...

Definitely forgot to ask you this last weekend, but how do you install bulk heads? Now that I've seen more pics and this tank I think you just get 2 adapters, push them into either side of the whole and screw them together? It looks like there is glue involved too... and what are the specific...

what bit do you have to use for this? I have a diamond wheel, and some pointed bits, but I'm told that the whole saw diamond bits wont work for a dremel? Also, a lot o the recommended rpm's for those whole bits say under 1k. My dremel I think goes from 5k-25k.

Great, I spoke with Marco and I'm going to get a mix of small fiji, spaghetti and tonga. That way I'll be able to try out everything he carries and see what peices are best for different parts of what I'm trying to construct. I'll make a post here for a review of all 3 types (comparison) based...

Lol, I agree with Subliminal. There are two popular courses of action: Marine tech/engineering and research. The tech side is more lucrative as it's an actual trade. In the tech side you can gain 28-44k with a B.S., 32-64K with MS (usually marine tech/engineer degrees have a masters program...

-So I originally was going to post in a thread that was over 120 days old because it directly applied. As I started writing the post though, I found that my questions/inquiries were getting more involved in the specifics of a certain type of rock that I haven't seen any real press for. So, I...

Hey! More pics, the kid with the iphone sent them today: It's use doing water quality testing and acclimating our animals from Saturday's meeting. Also reacclimating the animals we had prior (we had to take out everything and 'start again' due to some issues)

Sorry! I am in Newark, NJ 07104/07105. Here are pics: 1- 2- 3-

I hope this is a good place to put this. I'd rather deal with people I can 'automatically' trust (even though I've posted this elsewhere) if it should be moved to the general FS/FT thread, feel free! I have some things I am no longer interested in and would prefer to trade for them. 1-Large...

Ok, here are some more recent pictures. We're adding more tomorrow. And should have more pics in time for spring break.

Hi there, I am wondering what's on the agenda for the meet? What kind of shop do you have Bax?

Hm, my diveshop and the others I know in Maine let you take refresher courses for free, using their resources any time. They told me that in a way that made it seem like most shops do that. I would drive back up to NH and take up the offer instead of finding one around here, esp. since I already...

I don't know of any that have a Marine Bio degree online but I'll ask some folks. I don't know how that would work though esp. for the lab/field based classes. It would be probable to take the text courses (general bio, eng.,physics, calc, eng., etc) online then go to the campus and take...

Hm, just adding this info because I went to AF a few months ago wishing to do an internship of sorts to build my exp. working with large systems and was told by the managers that the majority of their night crew are highschool kids. Some of the information on the website also supports this...

Thank you all so much! I look forward to adding pics of all of our updates this week, as well as scheduling club folks for 'special guest' slots in the classroom! I didn't get ALL of the names from today, but I'll sift through my pm's again and add folks to my log of people who have donated to...
