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.
Olivier was up yesterday and we spent more time looking at the 12g then the other two tanks. The 12g really is an awesome tank, I set this tank up in November 2008 and it has been a solid tank since. The live rock was all live rock (we got it before real rock) and the life on it is amazing...
Updated pics time:
Here are two more shots of the akimani gobies. This guy was in a real tough spot to get a picture but I had to try. You can see the cool marking on him:
We had a flaming prawn goby sighting and were able to grab the camera. Like bigfoot, these pics are always blurry but...
I have tons of zoas and palys and I know any one of them can make me sick in a heartbeat, but it is a risk you take in the hobby. I have just heard to many bad tales about green/brown button polyps that they are not welcome in my tank. Unfortunately they are well suited for the aquarium as...
Green or brown button polyps can be a problem all their own that is why I recommended getting rid of them. They can grow fast and be invasive. Also the toxic levels in them are some of the highest among zoas and palys (I know all of them are toxic). I know people on this board who moved them...
There will be an RSVP thread up shortly for an official head count.

This is not a split, we have decided to get rid of our orginal RBTA as it is just too unpredictable and a coral killing machine. We are upgrading soon and we decided this has no room in our upgrade plans. This guy is probably 8 inches across when opened up and really is a stunning animal. We...
We have been using vortechs since 2009 when I picked up my first mp10 at MACNA. We ran that pump for years and even at full blast never heard a peep out of it and it still has the original wet side. When we upgraded tanks we picked up an mp20 and again no problems with the pump at all. In...
You are going to have to figure out to get an ro/di unit. Whatever is in your well is going to constantly give you more algae problems, and if you use red slime remover and then do a big water change you are just putting the nutrients right back in the tank.
