    Help with Pavona (reposted from SPS)

    No, a pavona is an SPS. They need strong flow. In fact the place that the coral is doing the best is where the flow hits it. It isn't like an inch from it or anything but it receives quite a bit. It was doing worse until I moved into better flow. The biggest difference about pavonas is that...

    No protein skimmer??

    I have had my 29 up for a couple years without a skimmer. I will say you will probably always have a film on top of your water if you don't get one and corals don't seem to do as well as they could but it is definitely doable. Before I had a tank crash, I had duncans that were doing amazing even...

    What's going on at Budweiser?

    I actually really like these alot....I usually use some tomato juice and tobasco, although clamato works because it already has salt in it.....It kind of smoothes out the taste of cheap beer which can be kind of sour sometimes. If you like Blue Moon or Hefe....you might like these....in other...
