Hi, I am moving to denver and looking to buy a used tank instead of hauling my own out there. I am looking for a 90 to 180 gallon tank, drilled, and w/stand, and possibly canopy. I would also be interested in LS and LR that comes with it, Livestock could be negotioable. Please email me at...

anyone ever read kurt voughnagit's (SP???) breakfast of champions? your plate coral sounds like the narrarator's member size. So your plate coral is huge? now you wont have to buy that porsche

hey, dont forget the 110 (48"x18"x29"), I love it... but it does raise some lighting concerns.

I would not worry about it. IF the rock was not cured it will jack up the water quality, not the other way around. Avoid placing the rock in such a way that it blocks water movement, it is important that water can flush areas around the sand and rock so you do not get buildups in deadspots. Plus...

THe conscientious was my first salt water book and I loved it, vary easy to read/understand, a great introduction to the hobby. Aquarium Corals is that the julian sprung book? if it is that is my bible... but I may be confusing the titles.

well... south-central. Bowling green

so does tap water, it just depends on what you are doing.

I have always had good success with coralife, I have heard good things about sunpaq though...

For me it was the other way around. I was 15 and home alone with my older sister when we a got a call from the sheirff asking if I was the son of a susan *****, she had been cut off and swerved into a tree on her way home. I don't have kids but my wife and I are considering tyring... getting it...

With the draft approaching so soon, why not chime in, who will your team take?

tough question. I recently moved my 55, wrapped the bio-balls in a wet towl while I did the move and could only save maybe (probaly a little less) 50% of the water. Everything made it fine, except a torch coral, and my biggest brittle star. Anytime you disturb the tank like this their probaly...

Drain tank as much as possible, clamp in place before applying brace. Apply brace and fill back up, if your siliconing, leave clamp on for a few days

not to long, hour tops. if you keep them moist by wrapping a wet towl around them or paper or something they can last much long, 3+ hours

It is actually important for corcea's and other attaching clams to be on roch work. Their muscle seals to the rock then hardens and can prevent parasites and pyramidial (sp?) snails from invading (in an ideal scenario) the back way. Has the clam flushed its zooanaxthenalle (sp?)? Is its mantle...
