I really like that leather. Nice tank, corals, tang! I saw Romaine in all the tanks at ***** the other day when I went for dog food. Was thinking the fish department needed an overhaul but that was besides the point. I know goldfish like lettuce and plants but didn't think romaine was...

My husband took this picture. He says I only had it taking 8 mega pixels instead of 12. I like photography but am not good at configuring all the options.

The closest I have ever come to making fish food is pureeing the mysis for corals and inverts. Never really thought about it before but am interested now...

I just gave the Latticed Butterfly a yummy snack and something to keep it busy. I had a small clump of button polyps in my 120 that I don't mind salvaging to keep this fish happy and healthy. He hasn't left this area for 10 minutes now...

That is soooo nice looking! I too, really like the stain color. The moulding is such a nice finish and sets it apart from the standard frame...

They will reproduce (I don't know the technical terminology) by splitting from the center (like mitosis lol) and when they are in perfect conditions within a colony new little ones will pop up. I have the "red mushrooms" I have actually tried to kill them I have so many! I think they thrive...

Okay, the coloring of this photo seems much more accurate. Problem is, this is one of 20 bad photos... I'm sure it is the camera lol!

Update: I lost the Ornate during the night. I am near certain that it wasn't due to my set-up method. The Latticed Butterfly is darting to and fro and ate mysis this morning. It seems very hungry pecking at the liverock etc. The ornate was such a cool fish, I took a risk bringing it home to...

Okay, so 100lbs of liverock and a glass of wine later... I am exhausted! My husband helps but he is more of an assistant. At this point, he's calling it the cloudy reef lol! I went to the office and picked out 100 lbs of Caribbean Liverock totaling 6 pieces. 2~ 30lb rocks and 4~10lb rocks. I...

Quote: Originally Posted by Al&Burke looks really good ladyreefkeeper - what size pump did you put in that sump, sounds like a poem. Looks like you might need to make your drain line a bit longer into the sump, is that where your skimmer is going or is it going. Maybe even a bubble tower to...

I really do love my job it is very fulfilling and they say you should do what you love. I do realize there will be some sort of cycling that will occur. Using water from my 120 will make the tank cycle faster as will the filter material I get from the 120. My only real concern will be the...

I am currently waiting for the last bit of water(I can hardly wait) for the moment of truth when I can plug it in and make sure it is in working order. Today is my day off (from Saltwaterfish.com) so I plan to go to the office and pick up 100 lbs of Caribbean Liverock to put in this evening. I...

So then, my husband and I made a sump out of a 20 gallon(long) We had pexiglass baffles made and we siliconed them in on Tuesday and let it dry and seal... Overall cost to make the sump was less than $50.00 We designed it the way we wanted it.

Hello. I am documenting my 90 gallon set-up. I have never shared my techniques for a successful set up so please be gentle lol! Okay here goes! I originally had a 90 gallon planted freshwater tank and had so many nuisance algae problems I decided to turn it salt. I am good at salt. Really...
