Rays are cool. I saw some in the "dive show" tank at the newport aquarium in KY. This guy was around 3 feet across. They look like they just fly. AWESOME!! Good luck with your tank, Brian. Don't forget to use sand substrate for the ray bellies.

You have had to consider the structural integrity of your floor because you want a bigger piece of the ocean in your house. OR. . .when your looking at these boards on a Friday night!!

78 is the temp i use. I think it is in the range of acceptable temps. You may find you have better results with a different one, though.

In addition too. . . . Lefty gets 2 gold stars.

Does Jeff Foxworthy know about this?? THe rock price got me too! How about that glazed over look people get when you steer most every conversation towards your tank?

New respect for LEFTY!!! Huzzah!! Well Said!! P.S. I still like liberal coral.

Sweet reef, Seetreef!! AWSOME!

Thanks! The perc isn't dead. He is probably going to recover. I appreciate the thought.

I thought this was a discussion board, not a RANT. My mistake. It really is a pretty good story.

Appreciate the encouragement. ......and advice. Hey that's why were here. I DO like the fish--QT tank is maiking more and more sense. (Imagine a sheepish grin...)

Thanks for the reply. I have a calcium, phosphate and master test kits. I'm due for a water change, but i'm ready to add my fuge volume to the mix(matching salinity and temp and PH). I hope this will lower overal nitrates. If not. . . ." a mixing we will go, a mixing we will go". I'm more...

Most folks on this site will tell you to not use the bio balls. Make the fuge as big as you can. "T" the drain line where the fuge feed drops out of the line. On the fuge feed, put a valve to regulate a lower flow for the fuge. NOt sure about the pump--but goal flow is 20 to 30 times the...

Save your money Knots. I'm using a 17" and i do not have to scroll side to side. This may be a browser setting or something in you PC control panel. In any event, It is not this site.

Upgrade implies a desire to improve what you have. This seems encouraging to me and should be to everyone who enjoys this site. We'll get used to the changes. If you're looking at these threads, you are probably computer savvy. You have already been subject to an "upgrade" or a service pac...

What are your power requirements? How big is your pump and heater? What is the power output of the UPS? The math will tell the tale of how long you can run X amount on Z battery. BTW we use them at work for computer systems. Auto switching when the power goes out. VERY slick. OPeration is...

Yeah, Just getting my education, I guess. It goes with the territory. I like to put myself in other people's shoes, though. I would have handled it differently. This is the place where I bought my tank setup (fresh water) and most of the fresh fishes. I've been shopping in that store for...

ophiura, He didn't sell me the fish. An employee did. I did not ask about acclimation or S.G. because I've seen a LOT on these threads about the ranges people use. I think MUDPLAYERX was one user that uses 1.024 s.g. He said this is because that is what the ocean is. --Average maybe?--...

Tizzo, Good advice! I thought being the first fish and the only fish for a while, I could put them in the display no problem. To this guy's credit, the fish in the store looked OK when i bought them. I was thinking about getting some coral there when I get my lights wired, but . . . If I buy...

Thanks! That is kinda what I was thinking, but it's nice to hear other folk's opinions when you don't have that much experience. On the up side, I asked if "cleaner shrimp" would help with ich since it is a parasite. He said, "Yeah". I said what kind of a deal do you have on them (thinking...
