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.
Zoas look like eagle eyes.
If you can borrow an aipstaisa zapper, they are really good at killing mushrooms as well. Don't buy one as they are a bit over priced, but they will work for mushrooms.
Depending on how fine you want your sand, you have options. We use Carib Sea live sand fiji pink and it looks nice but does not really get kicked up unless you aim a powerhead at it. This is with an mp60 running right now.
The goal with dosing is to keep your levels steady. It would actually be better for your tank as a whole to dose smaller amounts daily then to do it during a water change. Your corals might not have much of a demand now, but they will grow and you will add so they will eventually. It is good...
Our melanarus ( 5"+) takes pot shots at the pepermint shrimp in our frag tank. Our lineatus, earls, and pylies will take a shot at a shrimp given the chance. We introduced a fire shrimp (4th shrimp in our Dt) last week, carefully, and he is Ok but our wrasses will all go for inverts given the...
With a 40b, I would go T5, the reason being that tank is so shallow, the LED's might be too much for it. Also with 3ft you would probably need two LED fixtures. You can get deals on the ATI and with 6 bulbs you can get a great color combination. Look at the dimmable sunpower which is really...
I bought a suit from the Brooks Brothers outlet recently and took it too a tailor to get altered. The tailer informed me the suit did not fit me correctly and to bring it back (I have lost a bunch of weight so I need new suits and am not quite sure what size I am). I threw the reciept away as...
Is this tank going to be setup pennisula style? Is that why you need viewing from both sides? If so take a look at the elos 120xl. If it truly is going to be your last tank, and you want small overflows, and the ability to put the tank any which way you want, take a look.
I was not going to wade into this thread at all but I think we might need a little reality check here.
So a fish died because you made a mistake and you want credit for it? You then say you came clean with the owner, so did you lie at first? This whole thread boils down to "The business did...

There are a few more that revolve around coral that we don't have but are fairly well known.
I would say probably negligible either way. If they soaked up phosphates and nitrates, people would just stock their tanks with corals and be thrilled. I don't think they produce too many nitrates because they don't produce ammonia the same way fish or foods would. We do know that elevated...
