Well, here it is a couple weeks later and I have added some new tank mates. The first is one of 4 snails I found in the wild, and a pic of Mr. Crabs (as my daughter has named it). I will try to transfer my clown and Royal Gramma this weekend.

I have on I picked off the -Bay that I use for my kayak fishing tournaments. It has a waterproof case and has worked great for around $60. Its an SVP brand that I never heard of, but it works great. all picks I have is from that camera.

I am by far no expert, but the sump of my 135g tank is run directly into a portion that has LRR with no pre filter. I then have some mangroves to help with the filtering and may add a DSB to the bottom of this. I have a xeon light to keep things bright and may add some CUC members soon. Pretty...

Sad to hear of misfortune, But as to the ro/di Ice cubes, I have found these small bags about the size of ice cubes at wallies place. They are like $1.00 for about 50 and work on the same princaple of the blue ice packs. I use them when I go fishing for my drinks and if I ever catch and cannot...

I have to be careful due to the fact my wife and daughter will download the music from I-tunes and others (legally), but yes it is hard, I have a bunch of cassette tapes setting in the closet waiting to get played again. I have seen on a site for the computer ner.... Geeks that have a USB...

Hello and welcome to the forums, I have been reading and posting on here for about 6 months while researching the salty side of fish. I have started my 135 gal (tall) about 4 weeks ago. I have been testing for some time and have had the ammonia spike and have started into the Nitrite spike. I...

The tank has been running for almost a week now. I have tested the water and have the first traces of nitrates (0.25). Ammonia was tested at 1.25. I have added and need to add some more LRR to the sump. But I did add some Oyster bar clusters I picked up over the weekend. I am waiting for next...

Ok, here is the stock list I am thinking about, right now , I have a Royal Gramma and a (?) False Percula Clown fish in Hospital / Quarantine tank with a few CUC members. A couple Turbo snails, 6 Red leg Hermits, and a shrimp. I plan to add some Narsis (? sp) snails, more Turbos, and some...

The Rubbermaid container is what I used for my sump. I will try to post a picture, but work computers hate me. If this dose not work, check out my 135 gallon build. just the use of a couple of bins and I used a perforated bin to keep my LRR in.

Outside dim.'s are 36 wide, 36 tall, and 24 deep. The rocks are a little over 24" high.

here is the system up and pumping. I added 20 lbs more sand (packaged live sand.) and started the pump. and the Economy Sump system....

If I get out with my kayak and can remember to get them, or see any pods, I will grab some. I want some for my new (to me) 135 gal setup. I just have to get over the fear of a call about flooding the front room.... I will PM you when I get some.

Just started the build of my 135 gallon FOWLR tank. I have the DT with water and the base rock in place. Tomorrow, I will add the seed LRR to the sump and some Premium Fuji to the display.Then sit back for the cycle. Then the start of the rest. Here is the beginning.

Here is the story about the Navy Seal and his dog, http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/6365427.html The Dog was to help him with surviving a pretty bad ordeal, and some punks kill it for kicks.

A better Idea would be to stop all traffic threw the area for a week, Then let the Navies have some live fire exercises in the area. After it is clear, put a blockade on the Somalia coast and anything that comes out gets a Coast Guard safety check before going to the Open seas. If they are...

I have been fishing in the Tampa area for about 8 years now, and for the last 6 from a kayak. Try Paddle-Fishing.com for a bunch of local and some east coast and other fishermen (and women). Next month, I go to Stuart for the DOA Paddle only Tourney.

I have heard of using the PVC primer (Purple) to coat the pipes and give a false coralline algae appearance. It may have been here or another site. Hope it might help

I think the Clearwater Aquarium was once a boat shop or spa. They have converted it into an aquarium to care for injured dolphins and other fish. A very cool place to check out if in the area. This is where the Dolphin Winter lives now.

OK, here is 2 of the 3, first is the old man, Sammy... Then we have the PITA, Shadow I will try to get a better pic of the big dog Hutch,
