Literally received a shipment of the $40 worth of rock from John at Reefcleaners (along with a ton of CuC and pods). It's approx 20 pounds of FANTASTIC rock that I'm very happy with (that beer bottle is actually wine bottle size and the tiles are 12" square). At around $2 - $2.50 a pound I...

Krysz, Sincerest appreciation for the generous offer. I do have to pass as I need height (6’ or better) and side supports as well as a drillable roof, but thank you!

Just remember... ‘Oh, that frag pack was $20, honey’ ‘Those lights? Yeah, they’re about $20’ ‘No honey, the MP10 is a bit misleading, its nothing to do with the price. So its not actually $10, its $20.’

Going to use bottom 1/3 of the top portion of the cabinet as a brackish tank to grow foliage out of. Was thinking about purchasing a mangrove and trying a tank/tropical combo. But I have to figure out how to build and plumb the tank portion.

For ambitious and stupid project for spring. Need a curio type cabinet with glass/openings on top 2/3 to 3/4 of unit and a small base compartment (can be glass or wood). Can be any shape as long as the areas where the glass panels fit in are not curved. The bottom section is required to store a...

Arg. Going to be in Red Bank that Sunday seeing a show about aquatic dinosaurs. Will try to catch the tail end of the meet but unlikely.

Reading for a year and in the process of prepping a potential tank. Does anyone have practical experience?

All, Thanks, this is engaging mnat, Wall growing will be enforced through intimidation. MR, Thanks much. To be honest I'm going to go with pond foam for the base of the next build and carve with hot wire. Then use Great Stuff to make custom contours and shelves. It's a pain to carve out and...

nice

Love that whole 'shelf-style' aquascaping. I always want to try but then give in to cramming more rock in for 'grow space' and my tanks become a jungle. Great equipment choices as well, gonna be a nice tank.

Rockwall prep and info. So, carved a bit more and used plaster of paris to coat entire foam structures. NOw I'm in a place I'm worried about. Obviously I can't let this come in contact with water, so i need to waterproof 100% down to the pinhole. My initial idea was to paint the entire wall...

This wasn't meant as a group buy, there are no offers or discounts for members. I figured that, as I was ordering and paying shipping, if anyone else wanted anything they could just add on to my order and pick up at my place or I could drop off locally. Just wanted to make a friendly offer to...

If July available, will plan to continue our annual if it works with the NJRC schedule.

If anyone wants to join in an Aquarium Depot order for inverts or pod packages, let me know. Invert and pod packages are excellent (via experience, 3 times), other stuff not so much as its a drop ship company. If interested, drop me a PM with order info, I'll reply with my Paypal info. You pay...

You should draw ghost eyes on the sheet to scare your wife.

Agree with jgraz. In an 80 I had a number of years ago they took over the tank. Here's what I did as I recall... 20% water change. Chemipure dose. Protein skimmer off. Full 100% covering of tank. Left covered 3 full days, never checked, never peeked, no food, zero light. Opened tank day 4, used...

Carving night. Here's some advice if working with 'Great Stuff'. It expands, a LOT. After drying, the walls were over 6" deep. I took a knife to them and cut back about 50% of the foam. Also, some advice, if doing this, cut randomly. I tried to 'make' it the way I wanted and it looked too...

Nice pieces. Especially like that zoa, great colors.

Well, needed 2 more cans of Great Stuff, now at $96. Got a $4 budget left. Here's todays's progress... The AIO mechanism around noon... And set in place around 5 (we work quick here, though it is drying). You can also see that I'm measuring acrylic to create the back wall, going to need to...

Just found magnets. If I build the back wall from GreatStuff on acrylic, I think I can incorporate them into the back wall build, then can simply magnet the background onto the tank...
