    Skimmer OR Refugium?

    If the tank was larger, I'd say your best bet is both, but with a 30 gallon, I think a skimmer is unnecessary. Of course, take that with a grain of salt, as my tank is a new learning experience every day. :) Oh, and as far as the CPR unit, I do really like it. The pump in the tank hasn't...

    Skimmer OR Refugium?

    Fuge. I'd do exactly what I use now: CPR Aquafuge Full of Chaeto with nitrates always at 0. Waterchanges are easy on a small tank. Plus, the amount of pods that this thing produces are great too, and they just drain into the tank. My magfloat is now like a little pod dining room, too. ;-)

    Ozone & Water Clarity

    Well, if we're talking about a 53 Chevy that's been rebuilt for the same $$ that a new Ferrari costs, I'll take the 53. :-)

    Terror Behind the Walls?

    If you really want to have fun in a prison, try The West Virginia State Penitentiary in Moundsville, WV. It's a bit of a hike, but for $50 they give you the run of the place from 8pm till you want to leave the next day. My wife and I did it a few years ago, and when we went astray from the...

    29g Reeflog

    I was having some issues with cyano on the sand. My guess was so much rock was creating dead spots. I rescaped the tank a few days ago:

    To Vista or not to Vista...

    The only problem with trying to fix whatcha got with a computer that came installed with all sorts of bloatware is that it's a total uphill battle. All that crap is like pollution. Sometimes it's best to just burn a dvd or something with your files (or multiple dvds) and start fresh. Well...

    As an aside, my JBJ ATO is the best thing that ever happened to me. Yeah. The best. ;)

    check out these pictures of various angels in a 220

    You can appreciate the fish w/o appreciating the owner, ya know. Like a jackass in a nice car...it ain't the cars fault.

    To Vista or not to Vista...

    Candi, Drop by my house with your computer and some of those mysis shrimp and I'll hook that computer up for ya. Reformatting people's busted computers is a bit of a hobby. ;)

    To Vista or not to Vista...

    If you reformat and reinstall xp, but without all the additional trash, or 'bloatware' that dell puts on a computer, you're going to be so happy with your computer's performance.

    water temp

    29g, hood with open back and 175w halide. I use a clip on fan (7 inch) in the hood and my temp stays ~80-82 during the day and my heater keeps it ~80 at night. Works good for this kid!

    Look what EATS!

    My frogspawn will eat silversides. Although, I do have to get a really little piece...usually i squish it between my fingers till some meat pops out, and they love it. :)

    Acclimation techniques....Lots of questions ??????

    Depends what it is. Mushrooms, zoas, softies go right in the tank. LPS I usually do the 'put coral in bowl with own water, and slowly add water with a cup from my tank and then plop them in'. SPS I don't really have any experience with, as I only have 2 pieces, and they both went in the same...

    This coral is doing great under new 20k bulb

    I got this coral a LONG time ago (for me 6-7 months is a long time) and it was under all sorts of bulbs (and more often than not, knocked around by my old turbo snails), but when i changed to 20k on the metal halide the other day, she started to look like this EVERY day. I've also been keeping...

    It's hard to "breed" live mysis/mysid? Not in my tanks!

    Candi, One of these days, if our paths cross, can I have a lil' scoop full of those? :-*
