    ***how You Feel About Eating Fish/sea Creatures-post Here***

    I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE seafood. I don't care for lobster or scallops, but I love shrimp, flounder, crab, etc. I can't do sushi either...the idea of eating raw fish makes me want to barf. But many...well, almost every time I eat it, I get a stab of guilt as I think of how we are depleting...

    Dumbest thing you dropped in your tank?

    Mine was a huge strawberry crab that I didn't research before I purchased and dropped it in. It terrorized the tank until I got rid of it!!

    How much should i tank cost?(90-125gal)

    Agreed. I've always spent a good chunk of change for equipment after the purchase of the tank. Really, in this hobby, the tank is actually one of the cheaper things that you invest in once you add up all the additional stuff you'll need. I'm still trying to figure out when I'll be able to afford...

    My Dog was murdered yesterday...

    I'm not going to touch on any of the possible solutions, because everyone her already has. My only advice to you--and to everyone else-- is that it is never a wise idea to chain your dog outside unsupervised. If you don't have a fenced yard, then, as a responsible pet owner, a person should take...

    How much should i tank cost?(90-125gal)

    I got my 125 gallon Marineland tank, wood stand, florescent light strip, and glass hoods for $495.00 on sale at my local pet store. He has that same deal quite often. It's good to shop around!! (But, I know that bowfronts are always quite a bit higher in price.)

    Aqua C on wet/dry

    Thanks Bob......I am pretty sure I have enough room. I'll measure to be sure. I wanted to be sure that I could hang one on the side of the wet/dry before I purchased one!

    Aqua C on wet/dry

    Does anyone know if I have enough room to hang an Aqua C Remora Pro w/ a skimmer box on my wet/dry filter? Would this work? (I've never used a skimmer before, except what came with the wet/dry.) It's a Pro-Clear wet/dry, large enough to be rated for a 175 gallon....I'm unsure of the...

    Thanks Bob A. I had been asking questions about the best skimmer for my tank on a different thread...I plan on getting one in January. I figured that was the source of my problems, so it's good to know that I was correct!! I think I'm pretty close to deciding which one to go with. :thinking...

    New to DIY sumps/refugiums...converting wet/dry?

    You know, I can't describe the gunk. It's not algae...it almost looks like stuff that has settled after the sand is stirred up. I didn't have the problem until we moved in September, and after that it seemed like all of the dust in the tank settled on the LR, and never went away. I have LOTS of...
