Hey do you have grants e-mail address? He told me it was tang something @hotmail but I forgot it :( I was going to send him pictures of my tank so far! Thanks man.

Ok cool. Yea I bought it cured but it had to travel quite a ways from the LFS (about 150 miles) and it is extremely cold outside right now, so I'm sure that didn't help at all. I don't have any fish or anything yet, just live rock, live sand, and there were 2 pretty big snails on the live rock...

Well I've had my LR for a week now, not much is different then when I put it in but one thing has been catching me eye. My LFS showed me dark puplish spots on the rock when I bought it and told me it's coraline algae and to have it facing up to the light. I followed his directions and now...

Hey thanks man, I called Grant and it sounds really awesome. I can't wait to stop by his place and check things out. He told me about some live rock that he gets that you can build things with and told me you had some. I was wondering if you had pictures of anything that you could send to...

NICE! Thanks man, does he do things out of his home or how does that work? I'm looking at getting a bunch of fish as soon as my tank cycles, I was gonna order them online because they are so much cheaper, but it would be nice if he has better prices, it seems like min is kinda high on their...

Hey I have nothing for you either, just thought I'd say hi from Yankton. I got almost everything I have for my new reef through Mini Critters and noticed you are from Sioux Falls, small world!!!

The plastic cover is all it comes with. You can purchase actual filter covers for them, but they are sold by themselves and not included with the power head.

Point taken guys, thanks for that. We actually did lose power over thanksgiving and it was AWFUL. Unfortunately I dont' have a power backup, and when it did happen it was for such a long time I don't think even a backup would have helped unless I had many. I do agree with the point of having...

I live in South Dakota where it gets INSANELY cold, and I don't have a heater for my tank. I have a really good lighting system which makes up for most of that, but at night I shut it off and it doesn't create a problem. My advice would be to get a thermometer first to see where it actually...

I just thought I'd let you guys know I went back to my LFS and talked with a different guy who also advised against getting a heater. I decided to just get a thermometer (sp?) for $3 rather than spend like $30-$40 for a heater and I AM GLAD. My tank stays right around 77 degrees with just the...

Yea, I'm at hoover86@hotmail.com. I think that's probably a good idea to maybe mix and match the LR. The thing I like about the expensive stuff is that is has a lot of webbing in it. It looks really cool and my LFS tells me it will be nice to use the pockets in the webbing to place coral...

Oooo, thanks for the advice, yea, the "other" website says 55 gallon minimum so it sounds pretty good. I'll deffinetely do more searching to be sure their claim is true!

Awesome, yea I checked out those butterflies and they look alot like them. I find and awesome website selling a TON of different fish marincenter.com. I think they have the largest variety I've seen of any website yet!

I was wondering if anyone knew what kind of fish was in finding nemo. The large (angelfish?) from the doctors office that kind of seems to be the leader with the messed up fin from the movie, what is it? I've looked through about every fish on this site and can't find one that quite looks like...

WOW, this can really be a lot to take in. Well here's what I have so far. I have a 75 gallon tank with 25 pounds of live rock. I'm acutally going back tomorrow (tuesday) to get some more live rock. I'm not sure how much (they have some really nice kind I've never seen anyone talk about on...

So you're saying get a blend of live sand and argonate sand? If this is correct what kind of blend do you reccomend, say 50/50? I can deffinetely see how that would cut costs really well. How do you feel about the advice of 2 weeks to introduce fish into my new aquarium? Is this long enough...

Thanks for the help, I thought it sounded a little off! Thankfully I haven't gotten any fish yet as he had reccomended at least 2 weeks before I purchase any. I needed to run the 15 5 gallon buckets I used to transport water back anyway so I'll pick up a few heaters. A few more questions your...

One thing I haven't noticed a lot of in the boards here is temperature. I just got a new 75 gallon reef tank this weekend. I bought pre-mixed salt water from my local saltwater experts and about 25 pounds of live rock. One thing I found a bit strange when getting everything I would need was...
