Thank you for the welcome and you might be able to walk to our meeting. We will have pics up in a few days. I went with Comcast because Fios is not available in the area yet (I will be switching as soon as they do get it) and they said I could pick up the wireless router from the store in...

Looks really nice Paul, is that Marco rock and epoxy? When are you going to make your own? Looking forward to following your build, you know we love cubes.

Already planning the custom peninsula that will separate the kitchen and the great room, if that does not work out there is plenty of room to get a tank into the basement. This is why I am hosting the meeting, need labor.

Actually we need the basement finished so if there happens to be a delivery of lumber and sheetrock, don't be shy, just jump on in.

I kept thinking to go grab my camera but the weekend was so hectic I just forgot. Also there was a snafu with the lighting so that won't be here until tomorrow. The live rock was pulled from our previous builds and we put in a brand new sand bed. We also adde seachem stability and another...

Was worried there for a minute, until I finished the article. Sounds like they will be taking care of the fish which is a good thing.

It took all weekend and we are still not done but we moved into our house. The fish made the move today, some are stressed out but everything look ok right now (keeping the fingers crossed). We will be hosting the meeting this month, so look for the RSVP page soon, hopefully everyone can make it...

Trop carries brightwell vitamin c and r2r might also have it. We have some too but not sure where it is right now in the middle of our move

Sorry to hear you lost your coral. We have found frome keeping only nanos for the past few years it small and consistent are the best ways to go. If you miss a water change in the future do 2 smaller water changes over the course of the week instead od one big one.

Welcome Greg if you need any help just shout, someone will help you out.

Think about it this way: 45g of water at 8.5 pounds per gallon: 382.5 pounds Tank itself with stand: Maybe 60 pounds (Totally making this number up, all I know is I can carry the tank by myself so it can't be that heavy) Sand and rock 75 pounds roughly Total: 517 pounds, lets round up and say...

To raise it there are buffers (I use Alk 8.3 by brightwell). To bring alk down you can do a normal water change or bring the calcium up. What salt are you using?

Almost forgot to mention, the cardinals had to be rehomed, they were getting too big. That left the tank with three gobies that hang out mostly in the rocks so if you caught the tank right, you would not see any fish at all. Nikki decided to rectify this situation with this guy:

Our scarlet hermit imitating king kong: Porcelain crab we added, tough to get a picture that shows how much purple this guy has: Gorgonian:

Some new additions: The polyps aren't out on the right side because a hermit is climbing it: Magnificent goby hiding:

Not the end of the world, you can still have a lot of fun with smaller tanks. There are plenty of options out there.

Might want to check your alk. Your PH is in line but with the no water changes and then a big water change you might have just thrown it off. We found our pico to be very tough when it comes to keeping steady water params. Xenia can survive a nuclear holocaust but for some reason alk swings seem...

We all need to buy a housing complex so we don't have to travel all over. Great stuff, will have to figure out a way to get up there. Did I mention I am hosting the meeting in august? ;)

Gorgeous dog and good on you for rescuing it.

Really nice progress, DIY seems to run in the family.
