    xenia growth?

    An LFS has a couple big rocks. They are mesmerizing at any size, but esspecially in big chunks. I hope to have a species only tank, for fuge and fragging.

    Quick Dumb Question

    You'll have to trim them an awful lot. They'll root to the rock too. I did it while I built my 'fuge and overflow. I resorted to a specimen box too, it sucked. My sister has some in her 10G. I feel it's beneficial to our systems. It's just another thing to manage in the system. A refugium helps...

    xenia growth?

    acclimation for xenia and frogspawn

    I just got them, our host says temperature for xenia and 1+ hour for frogspawn. Is this good to go? They've been in their bags for less than an hour. I'll post pics of our newest additions later, when they're open and pumping.

    emerald crabs

    I've seen my emeralds eat it, but not all of it. I think they may be farming it. Do you think this is a good way to spread it?

    tank cover

    ...cover the lights not the tank. Mount a piece of acrylic (plexi or glass) in the hood. The tank can "breath" and the fixture won't get creepy. Make it so it's easily removed so you can wipe it down when it needs it. I recommend vinegar for cleaning salt creep.

    Polyp question?

    Mechanicville is in Saratoga co. Our most recent claim to infamy was an F5 tornado 6 years ago. Decresente covers a lot of area supplying most of the state and parts of others with beer. mmm beer I just bought new lights and in my research I found that vho bulbs have about 6 good months in them...

    Polyp question?

    What are your light specs and where in the tank are the polyps? P.s. I think a friend of mine said he delivered beer to Middleport last week.

    drip of weld on in 38 gallon system, what do you think will happen?

    drip of weld on in 38 gallon system, what do you think will happen?

    I did it while hastily fixing the "straw" on top of my homemade weir. I'm going to keep an eye on the pep's in the 'fuge, I think they'd be effected first.
