there are way too many crabs to ID them even with a pic most of the time.. i never have got an ID for the one I found, but I gave the rock a sponge bath after seeing him pick at the coraline.. there are way too many species of crabs though..

i hear ya.. a few more beers and im out myself LOL

i got some free zoos from a guy on there.. they were overtaking his tank, so he gladly gave some up.. its nice to have a LOCAL board! did u go to the swap out near u last week or whenever it was?

yea.. wixom right by novi and walled lake.. im goin.. its gonna be a great conference this year from what i hear! i havent been to one before, but do u ever go on michiganreefers dot com?

i havent seen mine eat it yet.. they got more to clean up in my tank.. it dont NEED to get eaten though.. u can just pull some out when it gets to the point that u dont like it

the chaeto i picked up needs to get used to my lighting.. then itll start growin real good.. but my emerald crabs been chowin on the chunk i put in the tank

did u ever get some chaeto for it?

the canister could go under ur stand.. when u change the media, u close the valves so nothing leaks.. all u will see is the hoses in the back, and a small intake and return

itll just be like havin a little more equipment in the tank for a few weeks..

your hob holds some of your bio filter.. it could cause a slight cycle..

most of the canisters can be ran with no media in them, so u dont have to use carbon all the time

i wasnt either, but its pretty easy.. the water flows thru the overflow box, into the wet/dry which is in the sump.. then the bulkhead will allow the water to stay the same level in the fuge as in the sump.. the water will then flow thru my chaeto and to the return pump and back into the tank..

nope.. the canisters suck the water out of the tank, and force it back up to the tank.. they have an impeller inside, just like a power head does..

yea and the greenish patch by the box (wet/dry) is chaeto.. the thing hangin off the skimmer is a low level cut off switch.. when it gets to a 45 degree angle, it cuts the pump off so #1 it wont burn out the return pump, and #2 it wont overflow the tank if somehow the overflow gets clogged or...

here i my sump.. the wet/dry is just bio-balls.. the water trickles thru em.. some of the balls are wet... some are out of the water.. therefore wet/dry.. im gonna drill a hole in the side of it and use bulkheads to connect that to the fuge..

tickets are $55 last date they are on sale is the 24th.. looks like its gonna be pretty good this year..

some of the canisters got some punch to em.. mine does 350gph

i think fluval is a decent brand.. eheim is one of the top, but u dont have to get top brand.. i would go with something that doesnt contain bio-balls.. some of them have bio-balls, but i think u can just leave them out.. but im not too sure if u are supposed to run carbon all the time or not...

i dunno if there is such as a too big of one or not.. but if u go with a good one, u will prolly get rid of one of your powerheads depending on how strong it is..
