    damn hair algea.... what likes to eat it?

    Roy, Take the 2 red hermits back you gave me. Seems like since you got rid of them the HA got worse. Also, I have a HOB filter you could probably add phosban to it and see what happens.

    Thanks Phyl - Photo presentation

    Help!!

    I purchased this Green tyree from Candi and it did great for a week. I noticed a crab, some type of mithrax, bothering it. It took several days to catch the crab. The coral hasn't extended polyps in about 4 days now. You can see the chunks of flesh the crab tour off on the top of the pics. What...

    Fish Trap

    Take a 2 liter bottle and cut the spout off about 3" / 4" down. You then invert into the remaing bottle section. You will need to cut the spout out depending in size of fish you want to capture. Glue it together and tie a piece of string. Bait it and wait. I actually stapled mine together.

    Fish Trap

    I made one out of egg crate and twist ties. It is boxed shape about 10" tall 3" wide. One narrow side has an opening of about 4". I tied a piece of string to it and put a rock with nori in it. depending on the fish it could take 5min or a few days. I pull the string and then net the fish out.
