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.
I was stupid and didn't quarantine my new bellus. Now my display tank has ich. I knew better and was an idiot.
Always quarantine. Otherwise you are playing russian roulette.
Now I need to setup a quarantine, try to catch the fish or hope they can battle through it with the help of good...
what do folks suggest for a good color growth option on Maristars?
I am leaning towards 2 phoenix 14k 250w for the hqi and actinic + and a fiji purple on the t5s.
Agreed, and don't just think about them during the holidays. Remember them all year round. Send them random care packages throughout the year. Plenty of sites you can get their wish lists and addresses. Fill up a large usps flat rate box and send it for under $15 to a troop...they love getting...
What are some things to check on LPS (scolys, acans) that slowly recede and show skeleton. Very slow. They are currently on the bottom of my 120 (4 ft version). Lighting is 2 x 175w MH/VHO just above the top of the tank.
Keys to look for:

Refillable vertical DI

For RO systems they make a leak detector that can shutoff the water source upon any water detected on the floor.
They make a similar whole house system that shuts off the water at the main with remote sensors. You can put one by the water heater, one by the washer, one by the ro di, etc.
I recently switched from 2 Koralia 4's and 2 3's in a 4ft 120 gallon, to 2 mp40s...
Then I saw Jake's talk at MACNA who confirmed my setup. They are in asynch reef crest mode.
My chronic hair algae problem is for all intensive purposes gone.
It was the best change I've made to my tank.
Ok, anyone have any ideas? Lost my second clam that was over 5 years old. Lost the first about 6 months ago. Fine one day. Empty shell a day or two later. what could cause this sudden death? The first one was 9 years old, this one was 5...
The lights on my daughters 28g jbj nano stopped going on. The chance of both bulbs going out at the same time seems low to me, so I suspect the ballast. Or is this a xmas light type thing, one goes out they all go out?
