I'm ashamed of my score. Great site though. Thanks for sharing!

Since you're on the subject of brains... could someone take a look at mine too. I just received this by mail. I'm thinking the white stripes are skeleton. He has an arrive alive warranty, but dont know about any arrive unhealthy warranty. As long as its not dead, I may be out of luck. What...

I love those shows! What's the name...so I can search the title for future showings. Gotta love TIVO :cheer:

Question: Does anyone have any idea what resin is used as the "macro-porous synthetic polymer" that is used as the brand name Purigen to absorb nitrogenous waste? Or...any other organic scavenging resin or ion exchange resin that may be used as other brand names...perhaps in home water...

I'm about as pathetic as one can get! When I hooked up my skimmer and emptied the first cup of scum...I was so amazed that that I actually saved the scum in a pitcher for over 8 hours until my husband got home from work so he could see it. I had never used a skimmer before and was in total awe...

My 120....And I NEED to win... Look at all that empty space that needs to be filled in! :cheer:

You have my sypmathy. I would send a pictire of the dead fish and the defective heater to the manufacturer. You should not have this kind of failure anytime, but certainly not after 5 months. It won't bring your fish back, but it might make you feel better. And if they have any moral values...

I have hitchhiker crabs too and got freaked out when I first discovered them. I caught one and put him in the sump but two are still on the loose... It's difficult to identify them becasue there are so many species. I've checked all the sites and have not been able to ID eitehr of them. One of...

If you still have your skimmer, you should try to get it working. If you see what properly operating skimmer does for you tank, you would never run without it. What's the problem you're having with the skimmer not working right? Maybe we can help you fix it??

I'm so jealous... Good Luck!

Thanks for the info. The one at my local LFS is very light like yours.. which I assume is not the deep water specimen you refer to. I'll have to check out the base if I can.

Mine eat brine and mysis. I target feed them. They're mid level with decent flow. Seem to be very happy.

Beautiful! BIG, Are your 4 x 96's power compacts? Does anyone know how this would do under 4 x 110 VHO's over a 120 gal? My local LFS has one... but I am hesitant to buy it given their reputation (the coral, not the store) and also concerns over my lighting.

I had a percula go missing a few months ago. I think I have a manits (or some other evil hitchhiker) and assumed that's what happened to the clown... My tank has a hood with only a tiny space to get out through the back. I never would have guessed that any fish could make that leap. The...

That's the cutest thing I have seen in a long time! Adorable!
