    Biota order

    I would, but I did a Biota order two weeks ago. FWIW, it came in well packaged and with no issues.

    Asternia Stars

    My preference for Asterina star elimination is Naroda Starfish. [Aside: Wifey was recently a little upset when I pointed out to her that a big star in my tank had eviscerated its stomach over a smaller Asterina, and was digesting it.] Fellow elder-NJRC-member Jim Roth recently posted a photo...

    What Magnesium to Dose?

    I think the first thing one needs to better control (increase or decrease) magnesium, is a test kit that accurately reflects the correct ppm that one really has in their system. FWIW, RHF recommends not bothering with testing for it. (Anyone want the second version of the magnesium "Checker"...

    Ely's in Florham Park carries them and usually has them in stock. They also carry live brine shrimps, but it tends to be hit or miss. Their next BS is due in this Friday.

    Molly Miller

    I've got four Molly Millers, since late October. Paid $25 each (plus shipping) from a guy in Brooklyn. I have no reason to believe that they actually eat Aiptasia. They could be eating small ones, but the tank they are in has many large ones that are probably too big for them to attack...

    All for reef dosing help advice

    I've never had problems dissolving it. I mix it up in a 5g drum with a paint stirrer on my electric drill.

    Enteromorpha intestinalis

    I think I've finally found my long-lost Enteromorpha intestinalis macro algae. I've been looking for a source for years. This macro algae is supposed to be "pantropical", meaning it grows in most oceans. But no other sources on the web seem to be able to supply it, including specialized...

    Koji Wada

    Here's another hoot for you all... Koji Wada is a gorgeous (and not inexpensive) pink Japanese nepthea. I once recollected that somewhere I saw a reference to it being named after the Japanese marine aquarist who originally provided frags of it to someone here in the USA. (A story like a...

    Free 48x18 black cabinet stand

    Would you take $50 to deliver it to 07039? I'd never get it into my 2-door coupe.

    Cheapest RO Membrane Yet?

    I've bought non-branded membranes before without any issues. Considering how much the off brands look like the Dows, I wouldn't be surprised to learn that whey are actually "white Label" membranes manufactured by Dow.

    20 gallon long QT

    I've got a 20L in Livingston that you can have. The dimensions are roughly 12H*12W*30L. It has two holes drilled for an external skimmer low down at one end, but the bulkheads are threaded so they can be easily sealed. The last inhabitants were Dart Frogs. It is pretty dirty, but it is free.
