So, I'm back. I haven't been around in ages. No real internet connection (was using the library and such) and was on kind of a self imposed exile from all things fish for some time now. Either way, my 30G Breeder should be here Monday. Mark (jerzsky) has been building me a stand and canopy for...

Trop got in a Bumblebee Grouper (Epinephelus lanceolatus). These suckers get over 8 feet long. Cute when small, too! ;)

Anyone else just extremely... extremely underwhelmed by the last 3 releases of ORA? This month's is almost a joke. A green cap? Seriously?

http://www.reefshops.com/sunsun-jvp-201b-jvp-201b-dual-power-head-wave-maker-6000litres-.html Bought two of these pumps from them about 2 weeks ago. Have to sell them now since they seriously overpower my tank (I was foolish thinking that they wouldn't be accurate in GPH, but these things...

On page 94, there is a pretty amazing picture. Person wrote into the magazine with a question about his SPS corals. The SPS corals were getting white and he noticed some white things grazing on them and eating them. When he tried to remove them, he practically had to break a whole branch off as...

This is from the new TOTM for Reef Keeper. How cool is that?

Figured I'd post this since I had the day off recovering a bit from being in a car accident (2nd one in a few weeks and, again, not in my car -- lucky!). Had the time to type up my schedule and I always think it's fun to see what others are taking. Keep in mind that I'm a fifth year student...

So, I love this place. The store is an online store where you can either get your fish shipped or you can pick up (by appointment only). Met Michael today to pick up my Borbonius Anthias (69.99!!!!). Had a bit of trouble with Mapquest directions by the GWB, but other than that, it only took me...

Accidentally got a staple inside my tank. Obviously can't find it as it's in the back of the system somewhere. 39G tank. Should this have a deleterious effect on the tank or should good water changes over the next few months be fine for it?

I'm getting two of these: http://www.marinedepot.com/ps_ViewItem~action~view~idProduct~AQ1717~idCategory~FILTFIMHPDDE~category~Double_Ended_Halide-Pendants-Metal_Halide-Light_Fixtures-Lighting-Saltwater_Aquarium_Supplies~vendor~.html Aqua Medic Ocean Light 1 X 250W. Pretty excited. Have been...

I started about 3 weeks ago with Brightwell's NeoZeo (in a Kent Phosphate reactor, which works really well for shaking it up). Noticed tremendous growth and coloration right off the bat. I bought a Superman monti from GregW and a crayola acropora from him. The acro had fallen on the monti at...

Figured I'd start a listening thread since I didn't see any around. Might help some people indulge in some new/different music! Right now (and for the past month or two): Portugal. The Man - Censored Colors PTM is a great band. Lots of classic rock influences going on in this album along...

I gotta admit, I'm not a huge videogame fan, but I always liked Fallout. Downloaded this today via Steam, and I've gotta admit. This is one of the best games I've ever played. 100% gruesome and, in my opinion, quite true to the past Fallouts. Most Fallout fanatics are all hurt over the FPS...

And it was completely my fault. Routine water change. Had the water mixed up for a few days and added the salt in last night. My dumb self forgot to check to see if it was mixed completely. Poured it in and out comes TONS of un-mixed salt. Lost about $450 worth of acros (possibly more to...

Been toying with trying the Zeovit system for a while. Saw out there that the Two Little Fishes Phosban reactor could be used as a Zeovit reactor. Since my tank is only 39G, I think that this would be ideal as it's a hang-on reactor and will hold enough Zeovit media for the tank as well. Has...

I finally found what was causing one of my acroporas to have a few white spots on it. Found a small Xanthid crab on it just a bit ago. Was the same size as the spots and was happily picking away on the acro. Found a new home in the refugium for him, as I didn't feel like killing him outright...

Does anyone here really feel that drip acclimating your corals actually helps? I've never... ever... drip acclimated coral and I've never lost a single one in the first few days outside of a table acro that RTN'd over night (never lost another acro besides that outside of my own mishandling or...

...do they go together? I'm really thinking about adding a flame angel to my tank or possibly a Potter's. Never had acans with dwarf angels so I can't really remember if they are compatible or not!

Since I finally bought a new car, I figured I'd start this thread to see whatever else people around here drive! My new baby: 2005 Pontiac GTO in Yellow Jacket
