Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
welcome!
no experience with either but another alternative would be "dry" rock from Marco Rocks.
A 26g shouldn't require a lot of LR...with the shipping and all - you may be better off checking out the LFS. Just be warned that I've seen new folks hit the store but come back with rock cover in...
looks like a false perc - my true percs have really thick black bars around the white lines.
neat pick up though - looks like the bars haven't grown in as of yet.
I'd be interseted. Our school's pta has a calendar and they sell it to all the parents to raise money for the kids/schools.

I think when phyl said "NO" bulbs - it was referring to Normal bulbs - the standard stuff you get when you buy the tank cover. You could get away NO bulbs instead of VHO, PC, MH, T5, LED.

ACtually i don't know the price. It wasn't listed and I don't think they were seriously trying to sell the fish. Though I did find another on Divers den for $899...
Another visit...another wonderful experience.
I can't say enough about the team there - they truly take care of their customers. I'm not a guy that brings a lot of revenue to them - but still they treat me as if I do.
It was great talking to you again today. I will post back and let you know...
On another board I saw a guy who made his own fake "urchin" to give the fish something to hid in. Basically a small epoxy mound stabbed with lots of cable ties. Something to think about rather than having to deal with a live urchin.
