    Opihura, starfish questions

    OK, so I think I'll just try one orange linkia for now. I'll have at least 200 lbs of LR in the new tank, about 120 lbs of that will be the rock I have had in my 125 that will be transferred over. But I'll still wait a few months to get the star. I'm going to look up what the scientific name...

    Opihura, starfish questions

    Ok, I got off the "lazy couch" and did a little investigating and see that blues seem more difficult than oranges and perhaps one of each would be one too many in the tank. So do you think I should just get an orange one and see how it goes?? The tank itself is new, but I'll be transferring...

    Opihura, starfish questions

    Opihura, sorry, I'm being lazy. I could do a search but it's just easier to ask you. I'll be setting up my new 250 gallon and I want to put a couple of starfish in it. I have a harlequin star, who I've had for almost 3 years and rarely see, but at any rate I want a couple of other starfish in...

    The MONSTER is mush....

    Hey Thomas, I still lurk around. I'm kind of waiting until I start putting my new 250 gallon together to start bombarding everyone with questions. My new office for our boarding kennel should be finished next week and then I can get the new tank/stand/lights out of my mom's garage and start...

    The MONSTER is mush....

    Well, my Maroon Clown, "Fluffy", is homeless now. The gigantic BTA that he/she has been living in for the past couple of years decided to move to another part of town.....unfortunatley, the part of town it moved to was in the same neighborhood as a big powerhead, and needless to say when I came...

    250W MH w/ a 400W ballast? OK?

    I asked a similar question not too long ago and was told that the ballast and bulbs had to match on wattage, if the ballast is larger it'll blow the bulb.

    I can't have Xenia in my tank because my flame angel destroys it, so a flame might be your answer.

    Can I just say "I LOVE MY TANK!!"

    The gorgorian, green brain, plate and tonga mushrooms are all original occupants when I first started getting corals, so about 4 years I guess. The green brain is about 10 inches across when fully expanded, the tongas are huge and spreading everywhere, one is always getting "pushed" off and...

    Kitties need new homes

    If anyone in the greater Chicagoland area is interested in giving a nice cat a home, my daughter has two that she needs to find homes for. One is a 13 month gray calico, female, spayed with shots, very pretty, very sweet. We've taken her over to my daughters barn for now, she hates it there...

    Melanarous wrasse..rapid breathing
