The salt could rust out a metal container and leech toxic stuff in the water. Go to home depot or lowes or a local hardware store and get a 5 gallon paint bucket. Without the paint

I've been to both places also. Fishtown i bought some stuff from when i started up. The live rock was the best priced and honestly it still is. The staff is pretty knowledgable and the place is decent. Aquarium Adventure is way overpriced. They have excellent quality live stock but the prices...

I was going to upgrade to 2 #2's in my 46 bow but I thought about it and it might be overkill. Those Koralias put out serious flow. I'm actually happy with my 2 maxijet 900's. I think its enough flow. I guess it depends on what corals your keeping.

Probably a dumb question and i'm sorry for asking but i'm setting up a 10 gallon frag tank with no sand and i wanna be sure. Do I need to cycle it before placing my frags in it? I plan on buying fully cured LR rubble for my frags to attach to.

how good can it be? its PG-13

I'm addicted to online poker. Does that count?

My reason for doing a small tank is cost. I can get this tank up and running for under $100. Since it's my first attempt at running a second tank and fragging corals, I want to keep the cost down until I learn a bit more. Then in the future upgrade to a bigger one. Please explain the chaeto in a...

I'm starting up a small 10 gallon frag tank. I need more room in the DT, so i have to start fragging. Here's a list of things i'm going to buy for it. Can someone please tell me if this stuff is good enough. I'll be fragging zoas, toadstool, xenia, yellow polyps. I'm probably going with no sand...

No one interested?

Heres a couple pics. These are just a couple colonies. There is plenty more that I can't get pics of. I'm not great at taking pics. Its a great camera but the metal halides throw everything off. Your crazy to drive 3-3 1/2 hours for this. Your better off going somewhere local. Gas alone isnt...

I can do $10-$15 a piece depending on how much you want? I'm pretty generous and have plenty to go around. I'm not sure about shipping it though. I heard it doesn't ship very well and i don't want it die or anything. If anyone wants to see pics lemme know. I'll snap some and post it. Misiekped I...

Anyone in the Long Island area want some xenia? I've got to start fragging this stuff out. It's spreading like weeds.

Sandals Regency was very nice. I did my honeymoon there also. I paid around $7500 for 8 days. Had the butler service and food available for 24 hours. We had a blast. If your room is on the bluff, have fun walking up that hill. We did it for 2 days before we realized there were people driving...
