hermodice carunculata is from the atlantic so it's possible that is the culprit if albie has gulf of mexico LR or purchased LR from someone else who had LR from that area. Hard to tell from the pic - and I am not an expert at all...you'll need to put some water in there and get a close up shot...

Thought I saw at least two of them in the tank next to that monstrous star fish.

Someone on the board who is comfortable with the worm (and doesn't have zoas) may take it off your hands. Or just someone who wants to feed some FOWLR tank. On the other hand a human disposal is an alternative...

(clapping hands) - yay - I'm glad to see another snail supporter! :) When I get my tank set up - I'm going with all snails as well. Just a note - bumblebees are actually to my knowledge whelks - and are not snails at all (though they are labeled by retailers as snails). Whelks generally are not...

Before you buy any other equipment definitely think about becoming a Member first. The discounts received from our vendors will pay itself back and while it may not be as cheap as the Aquatraders, you'll at least be helping this club out, a sponsor of the club and getting a decent price you...

Here's an if/then statement for you English majors... IF....uncovering a tank and blowing a fan across it will make it cooler - THEN wouldn't covering the tank with say a sheet of acrylic/glass cover help trap the heat into the tank? Or will the heat dissipate so fast that the amount of heat...

In an ideal world, it would have been far better for the school to have kept one tank with all the comets and then ask the PTA for volunteers to help take care of the tank inhabitants during summer break. Or if the science teacher wanted to show how the fish are part of the food chain they could...

this thread clearly needs someone who has a pic to POST it! ;D

lol - or she could save it to help pay for whatever new taxes our governor has in store for all of us. :P congratulations! Actually if I'm not mistaken you'll now be able to check off "non-smoker" on all those insurance forms and I'd assume your premiums may even be lower!

is it recommended to only have 2~3 anthias? sorry to hijack - just a question as I am unfamiliar with the species. I had read previously that it was preferable to have 5~6 some such? Or was it like a one male to 6 female ratio?

I didn't think mixing clown species was a good idea unless the tank was big - at 150 I think yours qualifies as "big". Between the perculas vs Premnas biaculeatus, I'd add the percs first. With regards to the anthias - no exp so I'm hoping someone else can comment. Sorry about your losses...

Interesting read from the CDC - latest outbreak is 100 cases across 33 states since August 2007. http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm5703a3.htm Anyone who owns a pet turtle that has a carapace less than 4 inches long should be warned. Most of you herp owners already know the value of...

bob- No experience here - but long ago (good ole' bookmarks!) read a nice response from icecap on the topic here: http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=491363 ...here's some of the text from that link: From IceCap: T-5 HO lamps are not an unbent PC, they are a new...

i'm thinking if the bioload is light one could just do-away with the LS, and grab a cupful and seed the new dry sand bed.

Canon SD300...4MP (from my visit to the shedd aquarium...lucky shot) 99% of my other shots are like these... (from a frag of xenia that never liked my old 55 gallon tank) Mini stars!

how about a filter sock only on the outflow of the 50?

the zoa bug is a rare and unusual form of disease -you can treat it immediately by using the "cold turkey" method and having me meet you at agreed upon location to take away these zoa frags for placement in my tank. ;D

is it possible to have someone hold the frag for you while the tank is set up/cycling? What are you holding the frag with now?

there's another LFS in dunellen - it's on washington avenue...it's right across the street from the post office/train station on the westbound side of the two-way street. the display tank feng has set up is really nice. Although if you are interested in something in the display - there is no...

let's not forget the tang police...oh wait you don't have any in this tank. ;D Ok - reefitup - good info thanks... first - shouldn't you be sleeping off the cold meds? Talk about dedicated! lol! second - you don't have any fish in your 29? huh...that is interesting because I was leaning...
