Smartorl---thanks for the info. I bet the green ones are beautiful also! I don't have many corals in my tank---terrible lights for right now. It was intended to be a FOWLR tank but I am trying to push it a bit more. So far I have feather dusters, mushrooms, and xenia. I would really like...

I had crushed coral in my last tank and currently have agronite. I like the agronite much better! Do you have any Chaeto? I put a handful in my tank about 1 1/2 weeks ago and since then the Nitrate dropped from 15 to 5. I also have bioballs I don't think they have been a problem so far...

Why are you holding strong? I think they are great. Guess I'll see how we feel after we have had it for a while.

Well............you'll have to keep us updated. It will be a little while before I'm ready anyway, the whole budget thing + my tank really needs a couple more months to mature. It is beautiful and I love pink and purple!

Wow.....that is nice. We got a trachyphyli (pink/peach color) this weekend also with 3 mouths. We paid $65 but it was from a friend who made us a good deal. We saw one at the LFS that was similar to yours that was $100. I'd say you got a GREAT deal!!

If it is going to be a "fish killer" I will have to rethink my wish list! I would have a coronary if it got anything other than my ornary blue damsels.

Beautiful anemone! This has been on my wish list since I saw your first picture of it. They actually just got it back in stock but I have BY FAR exceeded my monthly allowance.

I do like the black and white, it is different. I just am not sure how it would look if it got all mixed together. I guess it would look like salt and pepper. How about one black and white clown and one true perc.? About the same size and great color combo!? Haven't seen the ORA midnight...

Dottybacks or flame hawk fish? A six line wrasse would probably be okay too, they tend to weave in and out of rock rather than up/down or side to side. I don't necessarily think it is cruel to have a circular swim pattern as long as the tank isn't overstocked and there is plenty of rock in the...

I can't see the puffer very well in the picture but I would guess a Hawaiian spotted puffer or Hawaiian blue puffer (aka papau toby). It is possible it is even a White belly puffer. Looks like he is in the Valentini or Toby family though. They don't get very big--4" or so. They are fun to...

I just noticed the white sand also. Duh.........guess a black and white Ocellaris would show up nicely.

I like your rock work and black sand! Really like the black and white Ocellaris but I'm thinking it may not show up too well with the black sand. My hubbie has a true perc. that really pops out with the black sand. Just a thought if you are looking for color. It is looking good so far.

use a turkey baster to suck em up. Use caution and be careful.

Bad.........can you send him my way? Just kidding, he is a great scavenger! Your lucky, my hitch hikers have been gorilla crabs which really are bad.

Personally I don't think it would really make much difference to add much more. I might put 2 in just because it is such a large tank and the shrimp are cheap. My husband used one shrimp in this 29gallon biocube and it cycled in the same amount of time as the 120g. The guy at the grocery...

I used one medium size shrimp in my 120 gallon. I left it in about 4 days and the tank cycled in 2 1/2 weeks.

I'm on a fairly high dose of one for migraine prevention. I didn't feel any different at all. I frequently work in the cardiac care unit at a hospital---it is pretty rare that I hear of a side effect of a beta blocker. The most common things I do hear is occassional nausea, diarrhea...

Not yet but I have been actively watching craigslist for one and we are not adding anything else to the tank until we get a QT--too much to risk losing. Why is it several months ago I was seeing them on craigslist all the time, now that my tank is up and I need one, can't find one!!??

Well my hubbie has a Marineland stealthpro that he really likes and 2 other have recommended it on another thread as well. I was comparing it to a JEBO (which apparently didn't get good reviews) that is cheaper. I ended up ordering 2, 250w Marineland stealthpros off the bay, decided it wasn't...
