Nice fish room.

I first setup my JBJ 12 in Nov 2008 and still have one (just a different tank, we went with the leds). My first piece of advice is to get the media basket: http://shop.mediabaskets.com/ Run it with chemipure elite and filter floss on top. Weekly water changes and removing the filter floss...

Depends on if the male gets hungry. The issue with mouth brooders is that sometimes they will just swallow the whole clutch. Barring that, you probably have a really good chance of them hatching, collection and raising them is a whole different thing.

Thank you John, it was a fun little group we had. We would have loved to stay longer but duty calls. It was great to see some people again and as always talk shop.

Nikki is making it up so +1 for us, looking forward to this tomorrow.

If it does not get better, you can pull the blenny and put him in the acclimation box for a day or two which might break the territorial response.

I know the feeling, it will subside (and so will the nipping). When we added the hawenisis, the big borb was chasing them for a few days and it sent my stomach into my throat, but it passed and now they are all good. As long as the basslet eats and is not pinned into rock work, a little...

Doing well thank you for Getting us a piece back after we lost our mother colony.

A lot of it is personal choice. We went with a ton of figi branch and mixed in others. Some was cured at our LFS, some we did ourselves. We did not etch any of our rock (for better or for worse) we just made sure it was cured. I have seen arguements for both and they all make sense. If you...

Still in the back of my car, let me know if someone wants it. Unopened.

First off, I might just go buy all those barnacle blennies as we love them, LOL. They would be fine in your tank (1 or 2), they pick a hole in the rock and just hang out, except when food is in the water then they shoot after it like mini torpedoes and then bang right back into the rock. I...

Growing in rather nicely, well done.

If you have the room, get the XL. Having 31.5 inches front to back is awesome. 22 inches is not a ton of space to do aquascaping and would be less than your cube right now.

I got sidetracked on my post, yes we use PVC or even a solo cup.

These breeder nets work as well. https://www.google.com/#q=breeder+net I had never used an acclimation box in the past, but now I use it quite a bit. I have used it on all my wrasses and am glad I did. I used it on the macnelli assesors when I introduced them because they were small and I...

Drill baby drill!!

That is him. I never saw the system, but from what I heard it was the easiest water change ever.

How many GPD are you looking to get and what is your incoming TDS? I have the 180GPD spectrapure and it is really nice. Since it is 180GPD is has two RO cartridges and two DI cartridges. Check on the chloramines, my town just went to it not too long ago and it is annoying. A normal carbon...

There was a member here (no longer in the hobby) that had his water changes done with solenoid valves. He just pressed two buttons, and boom full water change, it was pretty cool. I have the recric tank in my fish room and that is as close as I come. 65g water change in about 10 mins with...

So a new media reactor? They are always helpful. Really nice picture of the kid, looks like a very fun helper.
