    Anyone watch any movies? Redux

    Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 So who all watched this movie? Just by statistic percentages, some of you had to..... This opening weekend, Harry Potter grossed $168 million, the highest ever for a film. Overtaking previously title holder, The Dark Knight, by $10 million.

    lucky chalice

    I've seen anywhere from $150 to $400 per 1/4"-1/2" single eye frag. Keep in mind those are "true" flamethrowers. I've seen some junk ones, pretty much standard red chalices being past off as flamethrowers for as little as $50 a colony. Depends on the quality of coral you have.

    can i add a banner fish?

    I would say you have a little room, but the established yellow tangs will be very rough on the new guy. My opinion would be no more medium to large fish, and add 1 or 2 more smaller types of fish. Moorish Idols should really be left in the ocean, but if not, they really are only an "expert only"...

    Montastrea (sp) question

    Montastrea is closely related to favities/favia, so the same basic rules would apply. Widely adjustable to lighting conditions, as long as the coral is given time to acclimate to brighter lights. Medium to heavy on the feedings.

    How long does it take for a sponge to die once exposed to air?

    Bouncy balls are those small rubber balls you get out of the 25¢/50¢ gumball machines. Regarding the sponge, a couple things... First, there is a difference between being exposed to air for a few seconds, and sitting out of the water for a few minutes. Secondly, different sponges respond...

    What happened?

    Burrowing is common for Dottybacks, why their bodies are sorta compressed vertically. Fun fact for this thread, did you know the Green Wolf Eel, isn't an eel at all? It's actually a Dottyback. But is he just fanning the sand out with his tail? Or is he taking mouthfuls of sand and spitting it...

    What happened?

    More then a few potential suspects on the list, without seeing who done it, can't really guess and blame one. You'll start to think it was ___ fish, then you over-analysis every move it makes, meanwhile, it was a completely different fish. However, with a stocklist that is perhaps edging toward...

    Where is everyone...?

    To be honest, RC is a bit down itself as well. Certainly in fish sections, a lot of the veteran guys aren't to active as well.... Only really one of the reef sites, R2R, seems to be gaining popularity... 4300 posts and didn't make the list...

    Sulfur Denitrator.... And Phosban Media?

    Depending on what Phos media you plan on running, the flow rate required would be quite a bit different then the denitrator. Not to mention having to crack open that denitrator and change out the phos media (yuck). Phos media would be much better served in a separate reactor.

    Does your LFS offer a guarantee?

    Usually the places that can offer guarantees on livestock, mostly online vendors. can do so because of sales volume. The lowly LFS doesn't have near the volume of those other places, so each refund they give, stings that much more. Especially, as I tend to believe, a probably surprising...
