Don't know version, cant remember PC is old. Hirobo, if you don't mind sending emailing would appreciate it. Mikem, if that doesn't work I'll give you a call to pick it up. I wouldn't care except my resume is on this machine. Thanks everyone, Mark

I agree to many nems for one tank. A small harem is nice to see. I have 3 cardinals and 4 percs, cool watching them school. The cards only come out 2 at a time. One stays back and guards the territory. They switch out every so often but all come out when its feeding time.

Does anyone have the Windows XP installation disks? My family PC is not working and some XP files I think are corrupt. I will not install XP; just need to copy two files: NTLDR and NTDETECT.COM Thanks, Mark

I do run a Phosban reactor and occassioanlly add carbon to it, out right now. I am considering scrubbing the rocks although I really don't want to. I feed every other day and a little at a time. This way the fish will eat most of the food and little is lost to the crevices.

This is a similar looking sea star. Just that mine is yellowish where the white is. Fish: Flame angel Lemon peel angel Cardinals Perc clowns Striped psuedochromis Lawn mower blenny I will mention this although have never seen it. Twice my son has seen something red colored coming in/out...

Phyl, Wish I knew what was eating/killing the snails. No crabs or large shrimps to my knowledge. I have a brittle start that is black and gold colored. Hides in the rocks and only sticks out arms when I feed the tank. Very hard to get a pic but will try.

I have a 36" T5 light fixture. Bulbs do need to be replaced as they are a 1yr old. Snails... a good question. I can't even keep them alive. No matter how many I put in the DT they don't last. I have a bunch of baby snails in the sump and have been adding them to the display.

I didn't order test kits for Alk and Mag. I usually mix it for a few hours before using it.

My last dose of anything was Tuesday. I am still waiting for my test kit so all I have to measure is: Ammonia - 0 - same Nitrate - 15/20ppm - same Nitrate - 0 - same Cal - 340 - slight increase SG - 1.024 Temp - 78

There is LFS Chain I go to occasionally. The tanks are horrible and the poor fish are always sick. This is for SW and FW. I find it disgraceful but they don't care. I just look and don't buy anything not even crickets. I buy them at a closer LFS. Have seen many sick reptiles also. I complained...

Funny Phil. The 75g is up a year and a half and hasn't stabilized. I did better with the 55g using a canister filter and HOB skimmer. My patience is reaching it's limit.

In this club was Mikem and Ricwilli.

Bill, I was thinking the same thing. To many problems and not just lately. I could take an ax to it....LOL. Maybe I should just throw in the towel and say I did my best at the time and go back to FW.

I dose Kent Strontium and Molybdenum every 2 weeks, 1 cap full. It contains Strontium Chloride, Potassium Chloride, Magnesium Chloride, and Sodium Molybdate. Instructions state 1 cap full per 50g every 4 days. I like to dose slowly. I guess i will increase the dosage as indicated.

I was thinking about the crab but not sure if they will eat it. I only used the Reef Crystals once for a 10g water change, was using IO before. The skimmer has been in for a month. The build up did start when the other skimmer got cranky. Guess I'll wait and see. Good reason to rip out all the...

Phil, no idea. What would cause it become low?

Well this is what my tank looks like after dosing Vodka, water changes, and Phosban. Is there away to remove the green algae other than scrubbing the rocks? Or should I leave it be? This hasn't grown but decreased a tiny bit. Any suggestions welcome, pics below. Mark

Mike, Bringing back the good ole days. I remember when I was young my dad had those bleached / colored corals in his FW tank full of guppies, platys, and mollies. Sometimes the old way is best. Since my upgrade the tank just doesn't seem to be doing well at all. I kind of regret it now but...

Rich, The only mods I found were a bigger pump or they used a needle wheel. Let us know if you find something different. Mark

Wombat, no one wants them. I posted it on other sites and no takers. I'll just hang-on to mine for now.
