    Clowns laid eggs again this morning

    would love to have a nursery - but first i have to wait 8 days for the eggs to mature and hatch. If i get 99% failure that would still be an accomplishment because at least i tried...

    Caulerpa going sexual ... now what?

    my cheato (thanks to jr) is very similar. Today I caught my astrea snail walking across the top of the ball.... ;D ;D That meant to me it was time to trim. When it gets solid mass like that - it traps more detritus then I like....

    Clowns laid eggs again this morning

    Per mofib - if you take a plastic straw with a small tip cut correctly, you can slowly peel a few eggs off the wall and inset into an inverted bell with an airstone underneath. I can't explain it but I'm going to try that with a few. The rest I will wait until next friday night and try and...

    WTB - Broken, Loose Tile (metuchen, nj)

    I know it's crazy - I have a piece of black granite at home but it's too big and I'd rather not break a 2x2 piece just for the tank. So if anyone has any loose/broken tile you don't want - give me a holler. The tile is needed so that my clowns will lay eggs on that tile instead of on the tank...

    Clowns laid eggs again this morning

    This is the sixth...maybe seventh batch. I dunno -i think keeping the tank temp at 80 has gotten them in the mood again. The last batch was well over a month ago. Based on an 8 day target - they should hatch after dusk on the night of the 18th - which is perfect since I don't have work on the...

    Ugg! @#$#%#!!

    agree with the above...I bought my 120 from AqOB and there is no way they'd force me to deal with AGA. I dunno whether to laugh or cry. Laugh because this is FINALLY a REAL emergency in the EMERGENCY threa. Cry because of the situation you are in.

    Carpet surfing fish the big conspiracy

    so sorry to hear. ::) Just so you know - stupidity also impacts $30 fish. I had a pearly that would keep hitting the cover in the QT. I didn't want to separate the two pearlys and decided to chance it in the big tank (with sand/places to hide, etc). He decided surfing was better. ::) Of...

    Adding kalkawasser to your top off

    sure...the only downsides are: the tunze pump will go kaput sooner - but it's not too bad since those oz pumps are not crazy pricey. The other thing is that I thought the kalk needed to avoid exposure to O2 to get the best saturation. Hence the reactor. You do not necessarily need that reactor...

    Skimmer for a 120gal..

    Switch420 - do you have an ATS? Can you post your experience? From everything I have read - it makes zero sense to replace your skimmer for an ATS. Advocating such makes me wonder why you feel this way? I will summarize my analysis like this: Have you ever seen the gunk in a skimmer cup? Have...

    Adding kalkawasser to your top off

    I set up a PM kalk reactor (purchased during a group buy) that is hooked into a tunze osmolator. The Osmolator detects when water is low, and pumps the water from the reservoir into the reactor. The kalk saturated water is then dosed into the tank. My only issue is that because the top-off...

    FREAKS: well....WIRE NEAT FREAKS!

    I used an american dj power panel and "mounted" it under the middle support bracket of my aga stand. Some people will mount it flush to the door panel. I did it this way to make it easier to pull the plugs out if I needed to. Then I went and picked up a bunch of cheap cable ties and went nuts...
