ricwilli has some corals for sale....nice big softy rock too. I know he is coming because he is bringing me something.
If you buy the big rock he is throwing in a purple cap frag...pretty nice I got one from him at the frag swap.
I think it is best to get it out yes. Get a test kit too at some point for Phos and SI, I know I have the Phos one if you are close to Little Silver you can use it for a few tests.
Be careful you may release some ammonia if you take rocks out of deeper sand. I didn't go that route when I did...
Just checking you are using RO water right?
I cannot stand PC/FC lighting I know it is cheaper but you really have to keep up with bulb replacement and it gives off a ton of heat compared to T5 or VHO florescent.
Anyway good luck with the water change you are doing the right thing...make sure...
Here is a don't.
Don't get a bicolor pseudocromis...in a 24G AP mine was a terrrorrrrrrr.
I would stay away from all pseudocromises. Green clown goby or maybe a shrimp goby w/pistol shrimp?
Love the pics...bet you are saving the out of water shot for POM ;D.
The clip is also a great idea I am going to make me one of those new fangled DIY clips too.
Hello,
I didn't see if anyone asked any of these really important questions.
Temp? Salinity? Do you use RO/DI water? If not you may just be adding silicate to your mess.
I should state that I had your problem bad and Mynd and couple others straightened it out.
Here is the easy way to do it...
I would go with reverse light cycle also. To do so you probably want to go with cheato as you don't want the calurpa going sexual on you. And I also agree with Phyl if you don't have good flow in your fuge add a power head. My fuge is inline from drain to my pump so I get great turnover, but it...
I like it OK, just have to corral it. I have made a nice power head cover out of it. I admit I didn't understand how invasive/annoying it can be. Thought of course I want it, but then it just takes over an area and you feel sorta bad thinning it.
Yes you should be careful and I was told it was...
I have a clam and have seen growth on it in my 120.
I don't have any issue with heat on mine without fan. I also have T5 on my fresh water and don't turn the fans on because they are annoying.
Hey Steve if you are going to the Manhattan frag swap TB Aquatics might do a CUC for you if you still need something I think they are going.
Next time you throw out frags let us know so we can sell raffle tickets. ;)
I like mine as well(Catalina). I think you can ask him to put in fans, mine does not have them...heat is really minimal though and I don't have it enclosed. You could go 6 or 8 bulbs I think for that size tank.
I don't know how close you are to NY but Manhattan Reefers has more people selling rock then here.
Maybe they don't get the encouragement that we give here. ;D.
Sorry Phil, well sorta, it was great rock especially if you like GSP. :-\
