I recently set up a 5 gallon nano at home, hoping to take it to the office during the spring. I have a 29 that is almost a year old. For live sand I used about a 3/4 inch sandbed, not sure how much in lbs, and about 7 lbs live rock. For circulation I used a filter I had hanging around, I think...

My god, beautiful pic, but I'm sorry those crabs give me a really bad arachniphobia (yea nice try on the spelling) feeling....I hate spiders and can't ever imagine keeping one of those crabs.

I am looking for a used or new metal halide fixture....150-250 watts...with balast and ready to plug in and go....looking for either a pendant, the complete hoods ready to hang and go...Please post here or email me if you have any.... Nikkoli110@aol.com

That last one there is the best picture ever!!! How cool! I havent been to Florida yet, but when I do....Thats def one place I'll be at!! That is a great pic tho, looks like he's smiling at your son!! How cute!!! Great other pics too!

Thanks for all the help, I moved some things around in my tank, and ended up plucking off some algae ball things that were growing under some of the shrooms. Its on the other side of the tank, opposite of the anenome. They are looking fabulous!!! I think I am going to bring the anenome back for...

When i first heard the "stop to pee part" i was thinking I was going to hear a story about a cop stoping you for peeing in public or something....That sucks tho. But at least you got there in the end! And yes, be happy your in Florida. I have like 12-14 inches of snow on the ground. My lil sis...

Nikkoli110@aol.com Thanks! :D

That sounds pretty good, where did you buy the light? I have looked on ---- for a while, I see alot of new fuge kits come with that type of light, but I have never seen it sold separately.

22CADDY where are you located? I have one, but I only have a 29 gallon, and it seems huge in my tank. I have a pic of it....

I bought a HOB refugium from someone on these boards, and it didnt come with a light fixture, so I was wondering what everyone else uses for a light. I was looking at the 36 Watt Coralife Mini Aqualight Power Compact lights, or a Glaxy light that just clips on, its 13 watts and has a 7200*K bulb...

Originally posted by NM reef This one died...maybe someday I'll locate a suitable replacement... I have one for you!!! I love him to death but now I know its not right to keep him....

Yea I guess I will move it up higher so hopefully that will work. About the iodine, I have heard people dipping their corals in an iodine supp., maybe that could help. I will wait to see what the answer is first, but also, I thought I heard that too much iodine could kill my shrimp? Not sure if...

Haven't you ever heard of santas "helpers"? :santa: Haha, a guy I work with plays Santa, he grows his beard out all year long, keeps it trimmed and everything, then starts bleaching it around early November. He's great, always told his kids that he was one of Santa's helpers when they were...

Also, this is a closeup of the mushrooms when I first got them, they dont look anything like it anymore, They are shirveled up and sickly looking.

Hmmm...The rock that they are on is close to both my slipper coral and my anenome. I guess I should move it further away from the two, (prob the anenome). The anenome was the most recent addition, and the place it chose to stay is right in the middle of my tank. It has gotten alot bigger than...

The only test I have for alk (and it says Total Alkalinity (KH)) is on my quick dip test strips, and that comes up at 300, which it says is "ideal". Is this what it should be? Is this a test for a different parameter other than alk? I dont think I have ever added Bicarbonate, (actually I have to...

I have had my 29 gallon tank up and running now since about for about 8 months, it was transfered from a 10 to a 29. The first coral I bought was a small rock covered in mushrooms. Since then, I have expanded and now have a pink tip anenome, xenia that has been spreading like crazy, a green lt...

I have a Pink Tip Haitan anenome that I have had for 2 months, under 30" 130 watt aqualights. It seems to be doing great, has stayed in the same spot since day 1, and has grown huge! It is like the centerpiece of the tank. I have fed it raw shrimp every 3 or 4 days, but yesterday when I fed it...
