    Bangaii Cardinals Face Extinction

    Does anyone know if there are any programs that restock native environments with CB animals? Would that even be a possibility? There are a few people on this board that breed different species- I'm sure if there were programs like that people would be happy to "donate" some of their hatchlings...

    Suggestions on filling in a high spot

    Hi all! I'm looking for input on what kind of coral to put on top of the live rock on the right hand side- something to cover up the skimmer pump & even out the two sides (the GSP on the left is the highest point in the tank). I have 2 40w PCs (plus actinic), giving me just over 5w/gal. I...

    How to get zoos to multiply?

    I bought a paly rock 2 months ago; got it home & turned it over, and there's a real pretty zoo polyp on the bottom! So I positioned it so that the palys were on the side, growing up the rock & the zoo was on the top, receiving more direct light. In the 2 months I've had it the palys have gone...

    Would Rust Affect the Tank?

    I'm ready to start fragging some corals ( ) and am planning on trying the bridal veil method. My question is, would I be able to use the netting with wire on the edges? It would be great to use since the wire can be curved around the plug/rock, but I'm sure it would rust in the time it takes...

    SCUBA CERTIFICATION PADI vs NAUI

    You know, I'm certified NAUI but I don't know what the difference is. I took the classes (IIRC it was about a month worth of classes) & all I remember them saying about PADI was some friendly-rivalry type things, like "friends don't let friends go PADI" & "they do that in PADI-training (like...

    Aipstasia DEATH!

    So we have 2 aipstasia in the tank, they've been there for about 5 months. They were never a problem & were pretty cool looking, but we decided that if they ever began to multiply- lights out aipstasia! Yesterday, one of them decided to move. Unfortunately for it, the moving stopped ON TOP of my...

    Additives for corals

    You know, I've been wondering about the same thing- re: feeding my corals. I would like to get better growth of my zoas (the shrooms, xenia & palys do just fine), but there's so many products out there it's hard to know what's "best". That would be a good sticky thread- what is best to feed...
