I hope you found your problem but I don't think so and I feel you are looking to deep into this. If some of your corals are thriving I would discount carbon and just about all the other parameters. If you keep a tank long enough you will see these cycles. As I look back at pictures of my tank...

You are not the only one, I also don't test as long as the corals are growing, the fish are living 15 or 20 years and spawning. If you are a Noob or if you are having some sort of problem that is different. But after decades of this, you just know if you should test.

It is not hard to stump me, just ask me the name of something. I can't remember the names of anything. I have been married to "Whats her name" for 40 years and when we used to date and I used to call her, I hoped she didn't answer right away until I could get the piece of paper out of my...

Quote: Ha maybe I got you. Think again. When I am asked to speak to aquarium clubs, my topic is the History of the hobby. You didn't get me yet. But I am sure you will. Keeping ferns was as big as reefing is now, maybe bigger. And it was harder because the ladies had to tromp through medieval...

Being that I am a Geezer (like many of us) I hear all the time that Geezers are old school and don't change their ways or don't know about new technologies. I run a reverse UG filter and that is not old school as DSBs, SSBs and BBs are newer. Regular UG filters are definately old school and I...

I don't remember because they keep multiplying. I just goggled white worm culture and they sent me a started culture. They no longer eat Cheerios or Matzo's, but they love instant mashed potato flakes.. Go figure

I only give them to my Jewish worms.

I really don't know how people keep fish without live worms. If it were not for live worms I would not be in this hobby because I don't want to deal with all the problems like ich, fish dying and all of that. Worms keep my fish in breeding condition so I have no need for a quarantine or hospital...

She is about 7' tall and drop dead beautiful. Even today and she will be 60 in 2 days.

My most enjoyable moment was when I went to a LFS out east on Long Island and Christie Brinkley got out of the Corvette next to me.

I meant "you" shouldn't eat flake food. Oh, then that gives a whole new meaning to flake food. Never heard of them. But I don't use flakes except sometimes maybe corn flakes. but I feed those to my worms and they seem happy. I am not a fan of flake food, even "Almost Natural Fish Food" as...

I keep them in this DIY worm keeper but basically they like moving, shallow water and they don't like to go through powerheads.

I took this in Tahiti, these long nose butterflies are a close cousin A healthy copperband This one is damaged. See the slight darker spot in the white band to the left and below the dark spot? It doesn't look like anything but in a skinny fish like a copperband, that is caused by...

Copperbands, one of my favorite fish and a fish that was one of the first fish available in the late 70s. In those days they were hard to keep but now they are fairly easy as I have had quite a few of them. I can't get them to live 10 or 15 years like most fish but 6 or 7 is closer. My tank is...

Hey guys, I am out of this thread as I am now going to toot my horn. Have fun, it's been real. Dance

Ok, are you ready? Here goes. Doh....Photobucket is down for maintenance. Make believe there is a picture of me here with a frown on my face. I can't try the picture yet and it was going to be me standing with 2 Supermodels collecting pods on Malibu Beach.

What the bottles? Doesn't everyone do that? :anyone

I remember when the saltwater hobby first started in the US in 1971, I think it was on a Tuesday about 3:40PM. We used pennies for copper, 20 pennies to the gallon.

Yes, that would be them I don't remember when those pictures were taken, but that fireclown is now 20 and still spawning, I think it is the bottles. Dance
