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.
I'm going to miss Marine Depot and their alternate warehouse site on the East Coast. If I was in a hurry to get something, Marine Depot was the way to go. Shipping from Minnesota to NJ isn't especially fast as they use UPS to ship to your local Post Office, and then have the Post Office...
FWIW, CoralVue is actually selling new Maxpect Gyres without controllers or power supplies because they can be plugged directly into their Hydros which handles both functions for these Gyres. (CoralVue | Pumps - Maxspect - BRANDS) Note that CoralVue's prices on their site can be very...
Could we all meet up at a local bar an hour before the Sunday afternoon RAP opening? I always liked the Bonefish Grill in Secaucus at 200 Mill Creek Drive. It's a short walk to the RAP expo center. I worked around the corner from them 15-odd years ago, and I always liked the appetizers they...
Red Sea has recently announced two new dosers - a 2 head and a 4 head (Red Sea ReefDose 2 & ReefDose 4 Available Next Month | Reef Builders | The Reef and Saltwater Aquarium Blog).
I've been waiting for the Versa dosers to become available again - they've been in very short supply for way...
Where in North Jersey are you? And how much rock are you looking for? (Or, more correctly phrased, what size tank are you looking to fill?)
My excess rock came out of the oceans (not some bag of cement) and most of it is 15 to 20 years old. My system is disease free at the moment. Any rock...
I'm currently running three Kessil 360Xs on my DT with the Kessil dongle. Allowing my Apex to control both their intensity AND their color would be nice, but I'm not especially interested in buying any new modules or upgrading my existing (Lite) controller to the latest controller version. All...
How expensive or inexpensive is your second hobby compared to your reefs? My second hobby is keeping Poison Dart Frogs. But maintaining feeder cultures of wingless Heidei fruit flies isn't especially demanding or expensive.
I'm using the ESV Two Part. I'm waiting for the Tropic Marin One Part to become available in bulk so I can check the reviews on it
The ESV Two Part is currently making me a little nuts. The Calcium half of the Two Part supposedly also has Magnesium in the mix in a proper ratio to the Calcium...
Surprise in the Deep Sea: Mysterious Ocean-Floor Trails Show Arctic Sponges on the Move

Thank you for that enlightening link! My high school recollection of cells is that they only have a single nucleus. It is counter intuitive me that you can take a long piece of Caulerpa, cut it into ten pieces, and be left with ten cells. Live and learn...
Valonia (Bubble Algae) happens to be one of the largest known unicellular organisms. But, Valonia is NOT Caulerpa. If you don't mind, I'd like to know which Caulerpas are single celled plants.
