    Level tank...........?

    What kind of floor is the tank on? If it’s a slab (concrete), then I would suggest you level and shim the stand/tank. If it is on a floor with joists (wood beams), check the level on the floor. The weight of the tank might have deflected the floor. In that case you could use an adjustable...

    My 280g build....

    Steve, looking phenomenal….the fish, corals and clam! Love those angels. I also like the clean look of your water storage containers. Where did you them?

    Mac and google browsers are reporting the site as malware

    One “attaboy” for Taz! But only one. I wouldn’t want him to get a fat head. :p The one thing I noticed is that the “http://www.njreefers.org/joomla/” is no longer redirected. You’ve got to get rid of the “joomla” now.

    Electricity!

    This didn’t cross my mind until you raised it qwik. I think I know what tree you’re barking up: The Coralife/Zilla power strip. Just averted a Fire Sticky

    Local Inhabitants

    I'd stay away from local snails. A fellow member harvested some local snails and ended up having multiple skin reactions, some of which put him in the hospital. It took some time, but eventually figured out the snails contained the parasites that cause swimmers itch.

    Local Inhabitants

    It is just me and my phobias, or is anyone else concerned about introducing unwanted parasites/bacteria/badassstuff into their tanks from wild caught stuff?

    Electricity!

    The water should be just fine, assuming the pump actually didn’t blow out it’s oil…and that would be obvious. Electricity is long gone! (That assumes it's unplugged. :grin: )

    Frag a Leather

    Just cut off a piece. I then stick a toothpick through the leather and now tie it to a small rock or frag plug using thin string. Some use a rubber band, but if the tension is not just right, it rips the leather. It takes about a week for the leather to attach. Oh, one more thing...no...

    Coral Growth and Fragging

    Trimming plants cuts off the apical meristem (the end of the plant), that otherwise inhibits lateral plant growth. You don’t have this mechanism with corals. They are individual animals in a colony. However, that being said, fragging some corals will cause for branching, and I’ve also read...

    Tropic Marin Biocalcium 10lb - Free - Sayreville

    This was originally put into “Don’t Break the Chain” by Sunny (Monroereef) and I now have gone with two BRS dosing pumps to dose two-part. So it’s back in the mix for free. HERE’s the link to info about TM Bio-Calcium. Here’s what Sunny originally posted, with the exception that PU is in...

    AQUASTUDIO NYC actual shop pics

    Cool! My only complaint is the store is named Elos…New York. When did they move Milburn to New York? I thought it was in New Jersey. :p

    How to remove RBTA from live rock?

    I have used a plastic citrus peeler….cost about a buck. The one end is like a curved screwdriver. Use that end to gently prod the foot of the anemone.

    Inherited 90

    If I remember correctly, senility rules! I can’t remember what I had for breakfast, and someone asks me what my parameters were the last time I tested. I don’t know! Or should I say what so many say….they were “normal.” So to combat my aging brain, I cracked out one of my old lab...

    What the... What kind of perverted snail ritual is this?

    Yep, looks like a three way to me! Or maybe it’s the Flying Wallenda Snails doing their acrobatic act.

    Inherited 90

    George, I don’t think it’s coral wars (i.e. sweeper tentacles.) Here’s a picture of the brain with a chalice to the right and a knob coral just below. The chalice has been “pushing” the knob and will eventually win out. The chalice also recently made contact with the brain, and...

    Watch Your Water!!!

    Yep and Yep! If it were me, I’d either buy the specific chloramine blocks, like THIS ONE, or pick up a CANISTER and CATALITIC CARBON.
