MSX is popular: http://www.marinesolutionsinc.com/catalog/Protein-Skimmers-MSX-Skimmers/c22_48/index.html EuroReef/ASM skimmers will also work fine in a pinch. ATB/Bubble King/Deltec are high end products that might be overkill depending on what you are willing to spend.

i think patriot has a bully purple pseudo...maybe he wants another pacquiao (six line) vs cotter (purple pseudo).

unfortunately with skimmers - the "get what you pay for" motto applies. Though at macna we learned that spending four digits on a skimmer may not really buy you that much more over a 3 digit dollar skimmer. might be time to consider buying a new skimmer...

agree with bob - definitely check out a local asian market... there's 3 here in central nj - one on route 22 (across/diagonal) from OG II, one in Piscataway (in the Lowes/Walmart complex) and one on Route 1 (south of Menlo Park).

rich that stinks....stay in the hobby - if i have any frags available (that you like) - welcome to them.

Does tunze even make an impeller for a 6100? I was under the impression the only difference between a 6000 and 6100 is that the 6100 just utilizes the "bigger hockey puck".

nope. what is so special about this store you can't get from any of the local sponsors?

Teenage wasteland...o yeah...they are wasted!

Brining is definitely the way to go though. Good luck with the turducken...am i invited? hahaha ;)

maybe OGII will have some...big sale saturday.

Sorry to hear about the loss. Got a question for you - I noticed the kalk reactor was pretty full. How often does that kick in? I use an ATO on mine and if I fill it with that much kalk the system jumps to a 9 ph. So i don't load that much into mine. Just wondering if you are lowering the ph...

evoIX - can't wait for pics...your set up sounds awesome already!

make a tur-duck-en! I saw one on diners drive-ins and dives...crazy stuff!

whitebear1020 - anyone aproach you about thinking about signing up to become a member? The club is gearing to be more conservation focused and reading your posts I think you are like-minded. If it's something that you'd be interested in - just follow this link: Become a member..read this. But...

don't use a hydrometer. Get a refractometer and set it to 1.025 or 1.026 ( usually do .026).

Generally this is sound advice. However, keep in mind that a black clown is just a false perc that has been bred to be black-colored. So two false percs (regardless of color) should be fine.

It has it's pluses and minuses. Those on the side that believe it helps minimize the motile stage of parasites such as ich and velvet will say go for it. Make sure you get it sized correctly though. On the other hand it's not exactly a replacement for quality husbandry skills or even just...

If it's velvet - ouch... Treatment Initiate treatment immediately because the disease has such a high mortality level if not treated quickly. Treatment for this disease is almost exclusively with copper. There has been some success reported with the use of the antimalarial drug chloroquine...

both black and orange false percs are the same species so it's quite possible for them to mate. Congrats on finding one at AF. You'll have to post pics.

how's the clownfish holding up?
