Haha kief... You lost me at tequila and beer. It's all about the scotch. And while I do love a good New York strip... I prefer Danish lol

I leave you guys for on second... Lol Hopefully gonna finish the wall tomorrow :) it's getting there and it looks awesome. :) I told Cory what you said about me being handy Sip... Lol and Cory laughed and laughed. My projects drive him crazy but He knows he loves it. :-) he'd be bored without...

Thank you! I am hoping that by the end of summer, the kitchen will be 100% and hopefully with new flooring but I don't think the flooring will be done until next spring. I can't wait. :)

So far, this little reactor is working like a charm. It is taking my mind off of lots of things which is great because we are doing a lot of projects this week. But that kitchen is moving along really nicely. I'll post a before and a progress shot here for you all. before Backsplash is up and...

Cool. So I don't have to worry about waking up to that "noise" that we all have heard... when the DT is cloudy with bubbles and the sump is gasping for water.... *shudder* I have become too well acquainted with this noise since I built the algae scrubber. "Quiet damned beast! You shall...

So I re re re replumbed the 60 NPS tank yesterday. That scrubber was going to drive me nuts! It already was, to tell the truth. I picked up a phos ban reactor from two little fishes. It was pretty easy to add and it was (luckily) not too bad to redo the plumbing in the 60. Now it's silent...

Hi everybody! My finger is doing great! 99% of the movement and bending is back. There is just the slightest bit of a bulge on the side of my finger... looks almost normal :) There is still a "scar" on top but I am hoping that it will be mostly undetectable. As far as my tank... Le sigh. There...

I may have to do that. In the past, I had to use chemicals and then do like an 80% water change. I also had to scrub every piece of rock with a toothbrush. PITA!

I have been manually removing the small cyano carpets. The lights have been backed down... All the filters/skimmers/are working well as they should so I hope that this does not take over my tank!! Thanks for the replies all!

Quick update: I have been monitoring this for a few days now. I have cyano starting to form on my sand bed. UGH. Could this be from the LED lighting?!?! I am freaking out here guys!! We just spent about 1200 bucks on new lighting... This is exactly how it started last time with the LEDs in the...

right but the issue is... I am not good with this type of stuff. I work with tile, sheetrock, wood, paper, fabric... plastic does not seem to be my game. I could barely figure out how to build this little thing and when it comes to this type of stuff, my BF does not have a clue. I would never...

So this algae scrubber is driving me nuts. Clearly, I need to rebuild this thing as now it just decided that it was to randomly shoot water streams all the time. I see it happening, I fix it and then is just starts again. Thats annoying. So... I fixed it. Temporarily. I put a piece of GLAD...

That is what I meant about different equipment. A lot of people keep corals under PC lighting or T5... I kept one of my first reefs under a 4X36 pc fixture. Sure it was mainly mushrooms, leathers and zoanthids but it was a really easy system and it looked great! I later used the same fixture to...

I feel like it's the same with reef keeping. You need some different equipment with corals and inverts but other than that... It's as tough as you wanna make it. Personally, I keep the easy to intermediate corals. I don't want to spend the money on the tougher corals and also, they are a lot...

itouch? Ipod touch? Whats happening when you try to load the music?

I have had better luck putting in multiples but it honestly has never been the same issue twice. Fake jellyfish.. hahaha that's funny. I am not sure if you can rearrange the trigger's spots but if you can, you should. The fact that they have "spots" is part of the issue. They are getting...

I have to agree here. There is no way you will be keeping a good, healthy, pleasant tank with 6 fish at 29gals. I had a 60 gallon that had 7 fish in it and they are all small fish that are mature at about 3 inches. I recently upgraded them all to a 150 and have only added 2 more fish. I still...

Omg... does your finger look normal now after all of that? I can't imagine such an injury. I would probably just give up. lol I always finish my antibiotic. People who don't are idiots. My finger still feels warm sometimes and itches... I feel like the infection may still be lingering. I still...
