Thanks for sharing. What an interesting world we live in.

I used the toothpick method successfully. Was really very easy I thought.

Why would you turn it off?

I have several sets of the state quarters to date that are minted in Philadelphia, I am looking to trade them for sets minted in Denver. If you are interested in trading with me please e-mail me at tpritchard@ncnets.net Would like to give them to family for Christmas. Thanks for your help. Jacqui

We pump from the protien skimmer to the refugium, have an overflow bow from the refugium to the return side of the sump, then pump to the tank. We we have a power outage, or shut the system down everything stops running because of the gravity feed from the refugium to the sump. Works great...

We have a 10 gallon refugium under out 105 gallon tank and it works fine. Used an overflow box to get the water from it to the sump which sits right beside it, all is gravity which works great in a power outage. Feed it back into the area of the sumo that goes directly back to the tank so the...

The astrea snails actually drown if they fall upside down onto the sand. Kind of blows the theory of evolution doesn't it?

He is strictly a wholesaler....do you have a wholesale license? All the rock is the same unless you find a place that does not wholesale from him. That was my point. I only found one site that would ship pieces 7-10 lbs each, that was premium aquatics. They have a different source for wholesale.

You can look at any site other than premium aquatics and see the same LR they offer here. Do a search for Walt Smith to see where the LR comes from. He appears to be the largest exporter of LR from Fiji. We have ordered LR from this site twice. We were pleased with it but the pieces are...

If you do a search for mantis shrimp you will find lots of advice on this forum. The easiest I think is the trap you build from a soda bottle. Seems to work well despite it's design simplicity. There is indeed a forum for folks who keep them in a species tank at reefcentral.com. Interesting...

I haven't checked in a bout a week...glad to see all is still fine.

Hellolights talked us into an Icecap ballast, then shipped us a defective unit. Our luck with lighting has been all bad. The other lights we have a Jalli and we have replaced ballasts on them as well.

Our LFS only got two in and we bought them both. When the first one went bad they ordered a new one for us...it took 3 months to come in. It has delayed setting up our second reef tank due to lack of proper lighting. We ordered a ballast online, when it came in it was faulty, we are sending...

The ends of the fixtures sit on runners at either end and are about 5" above the water. The tank is glassed except for about 4" along the front. We have had a terrible time finding a replacement ballast for them. If you have any leads please let us know.

Most sebaes will turn white in shipping due to the lack of light. The zooanthellae will return once it is put back under lighting and it will change color. Mine is tan with purple colored tips. Your sebae will live for a period of time with no meaty foods then will die. You really should be...
