Happy Birthday Phil!!!

Thank you for opening your home to us.

I just went through this in the beginning of August. One thing is if the HA is long then nothing will eat it. I had to pull rocks and scrub them; I scraped the overflow and used a net to get the big pieces and siphoned the rest. After that you can add turbo snails to control it. But as the otehr...

Darren, Not sure about how many per gallon. But I have 2 for my 75g with 30g sump. I just shoved them between 2 baffles in the sump under the light and they are doing fine.

I too have FIOS and never had any issues with TV, phone or Internet. They do suck when it comes to customer service. Bounce around from one person to another.

Nice fish. Too bad my tank is messed up now. Won't be adding fish until the end of November at the earliest. Good luck with the sale.

Tony, Normally my Nitrates are lower but not exactly zero. I couldn't get all the dead fish out, just one. I think the other three caused the spike, not to mention I accidentally stirred up the sand trying to see where the others were. The first two to go I bought a few weeks ago and no QT. They...

I am using API test kits. This was my own fault; I added seemingly healthy fish to my DT but was wring. Phil, I feel so bad about your little fishy. I keep hoping it pops out from the rocks but not yet.

How about some clove polyps or pulsing Xenia?

This would be exactly 1 week now. You can see my other thread. Lost a yellow tang and rusty angel last week. http://www.njreefers.org/showthread.php?74614-Can-t-catch-a-break

Well all the clowns are gone. Just left with the 2 PJ cardinals and damsel. Not sure what teh cause is as no visible outward signs I can see. Anyway just leaving the fish be for now. I don't want to stress out the corals and have been doing water changes to get the levels normal. Nitrate seems...

Looking for a submersible filter for some Diamond back Terrapin turtles my son acquired. The filter should be able to handle about 30 gallons. Thanks mark

My favorite is the TV controller........:emmersed:

Just noticed that the largest clown is acting weird. In the bottom back corner shaking, best way to describe it. Before it darted into the rocks its slime coat looked dull, not bright like it use to be or like the other clown. I added reef safe Ich Attack to the DT and will see what happens. I...

Phil, Yes, 3 clowns, 2 PJ and 1 damsel. a few hermits and snails, brittle star and blue linkia. That is my plan, leave it for now as is. I am considering a 10g QT setup for any new fish and then take it down once stocked. Just need to find a place for it first.

Don't forget to use the hot water tap and ice to cool it down....:p

I posted for trade decapsulated brine shrimp eggs in hypo solution. Since there are no takers can feed them directly to the tank for the fish? I only have soft corals and not sure target feeding them this is a good idea or not. Any comments appreciated. mark

Nikki, thanks for the info and that is my concern. I may setup a 10g QT tank since the last 2 fish I have perished and not sure why. There is another thread on that.

I would like to add some feather dusters to my tank in the near future. I hear most people don't quarantine or dip crabs, snails, shrimp, etc. Does the same hold true for the Feathers?

Not sure what you mean by the AC is off. I was told turning it off and on causes more electricity, therefore higher bill, as it has to run to get the house to that temp. Someone else can weigh in on this statement as I am not sure how true it is.
