Yup... I got pics for you.... check out my old thread: https://forums.saltwaterfish.com/t/85215/my-diy-stand-is-finally-done

Thanks for the help!! I did some searching for fuzzy mushroom pictures -- Found one in Borneman's book that looks a lot like what I have. Thanks again :D

That's as close as I can get. I tried feeding it mysis shrimp and it just sucks the whole thing down in no time at all. It's definitely a big eater whatever it is.

Okay... here's the best pic I can get of it. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks a bunch!!

I got this hitchiker on my LR and he's growing like crazy. I'd love to know what it is... I thought it might be some form of Blastomussa - but not sure. Here's a pic...

I'm using an Ecosystem and have been very happy with it so far - although my tank is still relatively young. I used a 30gal tank and added the baffles as described by EcoSystem. If you send them an e-mail they will send you out the plans to build your own. You'll save a lot of $$$ that way...

... another pic...

YGM! BTW.. for anyone else interested. I still have some left. $15 shipped.

I've got Chaetomorpha (spaghtti) for sale. I'm in Farmington Hills, MI. Let me know if you're still interested.

I painted mine with Latex for the specific reason that I can peel it off easily if I ever wanted to. Of course being against the wall it doesn't get bumped much (nothign hanging off the back of mine) - but also I'm not likely to change the color unless the tank gets taken down or moved.

I went with Flat black latex on the back of mine and I'm very happy with it. I ended up putting 3 coats on with a 4inch roller. I don't think I'd like anything glossy or more reflective as it would be more noticable -- you want the back to just blend in.

I've found it very helpful to do searches on this board for BTA or 'bubble tip' to find tons of info. I usually do this prior to a purchase… that way I know before hand if my setup will be able to adequately care for it. Good luck.

and one more. Sorry no pictures of it installed.... darn camera broke on me.

I used the black sil-o-flex hose from HomeDepot cut to fit my 90gal .... then added a threaded fitting on one end and a cap on the other. Drilled 7 holes at 1/4inch diameter all in a straight line. Here are a few pics....

If you're looking for a snail to clean up detritus and algae on the sand bed look for Cerith Snails. I added 8 of these to my 90 last week and I can't believe how fast they have cleaned things up - really amazing.

Awesome! ... Glad it cleared up for you. It's amazing how much help this board can be... and of course a little patients helps too. ;) :cool:

When I put mine in I used DAP aquarium silicone from HomeDepot. Came in a tube you can squeeze with one hand without using a caulking gun. I placed the baffle between 2 pieces of 2x4 and used a clamp to hold them together. Now the baffle will stay standing up in the desired location. Then I...

I put a piece of polyfilter in my sump that the water is forced to go through.... I only left it in there for a couple of days. It really did a great job of catching and cleaning up a lot of the garage that was floating around.

Hey Daniel411... I went at lunch today to the place on Ford rd. that you mentioned (The Fish Tank)... Yeah they are small for sure. What's up with the sign they have on the tanks that says: "No Guarentee on Saltwater!" ??? That turned me off. -- Didn't have time to wait and ask them about it.
