    New shark species found off galapagos!

    George, nothing new has been collected. Everything that was collected was collected in the mid 90's and preserved in formaldehyde. They are just getting around to publishing their findings from those earlier expeditions. All seven sharks collected in the mid 90's were sacrificed.

    Re-Starting my 29g Biocube

    Full Tank Shots

    Two pictures…both a five foot 90 gallon tank. The first is with the default sunlight settings while the second is white-balanced. Not crazy about either!

    Skimmer Tuning - any tips or tricks?

    What is of utmost importance in understanding your skimmer is that it is female. Once you realize this, and have a modicum of intelligence, you will then realize that you will never understand your skimmer. She will do whatever she wants to do whenever you least expect it. No matter how much...
