    Here is Stanley

    They grow close to 16-18inches in size and will definitely release a toxin if threatened or killed. Special care is definitely required for this guy.

    Ot- Nfl Superbowl

    I didn't think they had a chance in hell in the beginning of the season but I think the JETS are heading all the way. I've never seen them play this hot, especially with Chad Pennington leading the way.

    Thoughts on not using a filter or a skimmer

    I'm sorry but I'm a little skeptical. If you had a refugium with caulerpa like nacl-h20 and more lr I'd say it was ok to go without a filter and a skimmer. Cyno and hair algae are sure signs of a system with problems. Especially with a heavy bio-load and so little lr. I'd add the skimmer...

    flame angel

    Constantly grazing on the algae on the rocks and glass. Hearty appetite! Eats brine shrimp, flakes, algae mix, seaweed mix and small pieces of silverslides. Mine didn't eat for the first week but got used to his surroundings and started gorging everything.

    How much can i fit in my tank?

    Deep sand bed(3-4 inches) and tons of lr (65lbs) has helped my tank tremendously this time around. Top offs with distilled water and plenty of movement has kept mostly everything healthy and bad algae under control. I have a wide variety of cleanup crew in my tank. starfish, crabs, snails...

    How much can i fit in my tank?

    Some more live rock would help. Do you have sand or crushed coral? A good skimmer for that size tank IMO would be a bakpak or remora. What type of mechanical filtration with water fall are you talking about? If you want to make it into a reef tank you'll want less fish. 1 inch per 5 gallons...

    Sally Lightfoot in danger?

    I have a sally and a damsel. Never had trouble with either one. Sally's always eating away at algae and blue damsel just swims back and forth. These guys will sometimes give a tank trouble but it's best to give them a chance and not to panic and get rid of them. Keep an eye on them and if...

    Quit Smoking!!!!!

    I hope the mods don't mind. It is a positive thing. It will show how many people want to quit and how addictive and depressing the habit truly is.

I'm going to quit on DEC 31 and will update my progress every day or two on this post. Anyone that wants to join in please do so. It's tough to do on your own so I...

    What's a good lighting setup for a 29g

    I have 180 watts of vho in my 29 gallon. If I could do it over again I'd go for mh+vho or mh+pc combo. That way you'd get to keep almost anything. It costs more but well be worth it.
