It's a 55 gallon, I've got 3 actinic bulbs and 3 12k, but I'm thinking of taking one of the 12k's out and putting in one of the royal purples I've been reading about. I just went for the bulbs I can get from my supplier for the time being, but I don't know if they have the purples, so I may...

Nothing?

I finished my new lighting setup, upgraded from 2 T5's to 6. I think I've got all the timers set up right, however I have a few questions. How much eggcrate or light diffuser should I have? And also should I shorten the time my "day" lights while my corals adapt to the new sun? I was also...

Thanks!

I feed it frozen cyclops-eze or something like that twice a week, Usually half a cube or so between all of my corals.

My bigger power head's suction cups came off again over night and in a 2 hour window took out 2 of the new zoa colonies I put in recently. I ended up getting a magnetic mount for it while I was out today, in hopes of fixing the suction cup problems I've been having. I ended up finding a few of...

I'm actually in the process of getting the parts to build a better light set up. Everything I have currently is small frags, mainly zoas (which are growing nicely), a small acan, a small sun coral, a shroom that just left a little one behind and the small brain frag. I'm trying to grow some...

55G with 20g sump, roughly 70G total, give or take.

I only touched it the one time to move it and set it on the rock, and it's on the bottom of the tank. It's just sitting on a piece of rock that is about 3" tall. I've got 2 T5HO's with a 10k bulb and blue, 54W. Platygyra was the name they kept telling me, but it kept slipping my mind. Thanks...

So I got a brain coral, to see if that helps any. It's been sitting in QT for awhile now and I decided to put it in my DT, however I'm needing some info, first off, I forgot what kind of brain it is. Secondly, I've read to leave them on the sand, but the LFS guy told me put it on a piece of LR...

Good to know, I live up in the mountains were we get winter temps of -20 and lower, and summers in the triple digits. That's one of the reasons I'm weary, I'd hate to order something then have a freak snowstorm roll in. The last one dropped over 4 feet in one night! I have been looking at some...

corporate greeds a bitch!

I had a bubble tip under 2 T5's for awhile, I ended up getting rid of it because it grew bigger and faster then I thought it would. My lights are 2 54w with a 10k and actinic. I could have had a freak one though.

They really don't have much of a selection on shrooms locally, and that was one of the nicer looking ones. It's nice and reactive under my blue light, compared to the others they had. I've been looking at some on the site here, but I'm not sure I trust mail ordering livestock.

Do you have a clean up crew? Mine looked like that before I tossed a couple hand fulls of snails in, and now most of it's cleaned up.

They sell for around $5 a plug at my LFS, some have 1 big one, others have multiple smaller one. So they didn't seem to bad on pricing, usually I can chat them down some too, if I find something I really like.

PS. I'm not going to get upset, to each their own. Companies just keep sticking it to people in times that have always been family/friends time, and it kinda disgusts me seeing less and less care for the employee, and more about squeezing as much money as they can out. Last year on black friday...

I live in the foothills of Colorado, and 7-11's are closed on Thanksgiving, as are grocery stores, resturaunts, gas stations, sporting goods stores, LFS, ect.. I just remember when Thanksgiving used to be more then a glorified shopping day. My family and I made it in the local paper by hosting...

Now I've got a baby mushroom.

Very cool!
