Well done reef for brains! Creative and impressive. Just one question...she did say yes, right? :cheer: Congrats!!!

How big is your tank?

I agree with reef freak. If it is bad enough, I will occasionally put tank water in a big tub and pull the rocks out and clean them in there, rinse them off with rodi and then back into the tank. Dumb the water in the tub and just treat it all like a water change. I don't know if this is...

Been using coral-life. Which in my opinion is doooooody. My calcium levels are through the roof

tons of info in the archives

What are your parameters?

Sounds good to me! I'll get a hold of you before I plan my next trip down there.

Good to know! I had no idea there was another one in reno. And you are so right about the snooty thing, I had to laugh. There is one guy there that I actually trust his answers to my questions. Sometimes (and this is really mean) I'll ask the others a few questions that I already know the...

I always have to leave my checkbook in the car in shingle springs. Just like to look. No way would I pay 18.99 for an emerald crab! I found an awesome anemone at Jan's before. I loved it. It's the one that just comitted suicide in my powerhead a while ago. Gills? Is that on lakeside in...

What kind of salt are you using? I just figured out not too long ago, that my salt was the culprit of my calcium running so high Not that I am saying that is your prob. Just a question

I am ALWAYS ready for a trip out of here! Especially since it has been snowing all weekend. Went to LFS in Shingle springs yest. OK, I guess it's not really local. Ha! ever been there?

Do you like huge rhodactic mushrooms?

Really, really, really appreciate the offer. I may look you up this summer when I go on vacation. And the same goes for you. It's hard to find anyone around here who 1- has salt tanks and 2-can actually take care of them. By the way, algae prob is almost no more-knock on wood. Once I have...

Love it!

Murph, I love it when you post pics! In this one instance, jealousy IS a good thing. For me, its called inspiration. Amazing

We helped my stepson set up his first reef tank a little while ago. We live in Nor Cal so our electric bills are always heinous. I haven't noticed a change in that. What my biggest concern would be, is how long the kids would stay interested in it. My ss stayed interested until I made him do...

That's kind of what I am thinking. I also have to weigh some things. Which do I love more? My tanks? Or emergency room treatment for a really, really nasty spider bite. :thinking:

Make sure that you get all of the connections nice and tight. I know there are a few of us on here that have had the delightful experience of something coming loose and pumping water everywhere.

Alright. I have a very odd question. I am wanting to bomb the house for spiders here pretty soon. We get black widows where I live and I am terrified of them. Have never seen one in the house and I want to keep it that way. But I got to thinking about protecting my tanks. I was thinking of...
