Here is Eric Borneman's recipe, which I believe is close to what was done at Terri and Anthony's house a few months ago: Eric Borneman’s Fish/Coral Food Recipe Fish food and coral food (coral food is liquefied) Ingredients - a whole fresh sea fish - 10 whole shrimp - I squeeze the heads -...

Jose, I need pictures!

Pending to Taz.....mrehfeld, you're number two. In the mean time I'll see if i can harvest another.

Bump....still have the HQI hood that fits a JBJ 28 or 24.

I have one of the babies of my Large Hairy Mushroom for sale for $5.00. I have given this away in the past, where I’ve peeled them off the rock, and they have all died. I successfully got this guy off and mounted and living in my tank for the past two months, so that is why I’m selling...

Hopefully Bob (radiata) will comment….he is a frog-keeper and breeds his own foods….bugs and flys. I’m sure he can provide excellent advice.

If it's dimensional lumber....2x4, 2x6, etc, or boards no wider than ten inches, I can do it whenever you want to. Unfortunately my circular saw is on-lone right now, so I can't do plywood. I'm right next door in Sayreville. I'll PM my number.

I will preface this by stating I’m really not a nano person. I would surmise that two bulbs would not be enough. When I ran T5’s I was told that you pretty much want to cover the surface area with lights. I ran six on a 17 inch wide tank. Now granted, a ten gallon tank isn’t that deep...

Here’s my two cents on becketted skimmers: I own three of them, two of which are MRC’s. These were the best skimmers I’ve owned as far as taking the crap out of the tank. However, I will agree with others that they are energy hogs and also sound like a jet engine….very loud. You can put...

This is a tough question, because it all depends on YOUR eye, and what you like. I should also preface this by telling you I’m Red/Green colorblind. I personally like a blue tank. So I’d add at least 2 more RB’s (since you said the power supply can handle up to 10), and you currently have...

Was this the 120W ReefBreeders LED? I’m also assuming you had it cranked back to almost nothing over a 10 gallon. The point I’m getting at; Could you have given them too much light?

Very nice Mike and Nikki! Thanks for updating.

PVC is safe of our tanks. It has no plastisizers, so there in nothing to leach out of it (unless is was produced in China, and then I'd be concerned about heavy metals.)

Rigid PVC, which is PVC pipe, is not a problem as far as "harmful elements." "Soft" PVC has to have plasticizers, which have been know to leach, with some being problematic. And PVC, code permitting, can be used for water....OR CPVC. However, you will see more and more use of PEX (Cross...

This is the Eheim Everyday Feeder, which takes either flake or pellets. I will be using flake, because the pellets I have sink, and the fish are either too dumb or slow to get the pellets before they hit the bottom. The problem with flakes is that they float, so a large percentage of those...

I wish I could be there, but it’s the beginning of the soccer season, and I’m sort of stuck on soccer. :(

Automatic fish feeder AUTOMATIC FISH FEEDER We will be bugging out in the next couple of weeks for a little vacation and I had to re-install the automatic fish feeder…..an Eheim Everyday feeder. It was originally installed through a hole in the back of the canopy where the feeder clamped...

Sounds reasonable to me.

Don’t ask my why, but I heard the magnesium thing with hair algae only works if you use Kent’s Tech M. Also, have you looked into peroxide dosing? I’ve heard of people having success using this.

Seahorsekeeper has won the “Moderator of the Month” award over on R2R. So we now have two celebrities amongst us….Jim and Krista. Congratulations Krista.
