Been using homemade 2 part for a few months now and its great, and best of all its identical to ESV B-Ionic 2 part but at a fraction of the cost. My cal and alk levels have remained just as stable with this homebrew mix as it did with commercially available mix. Its not really homebrew in...

I swear this clown is straight from he double LL. He managed to conmpletely tear up the one 30 gal cube in a matter of an hours time. He uprooted and moved 27 mushrooms and rics. Literally......has my pulsing zenia pumeled into a soggy shrunken mess, ripped up my large yellow toadstool leather...

I just do not understand why this fish is as $$$$ as it is. Its from what I hear easy to breed, and virtually most all thats up for sale is all tank bred. In this region other fish are dirt cheap but these little fellas routinely sell for $20-to 30 each and they are only 1/2 to 3/4" long at...

The wife is into feather dusters as well as cocoa worms. She has a few hard tube worms that have nice full crowns of white and red. She is a die hard Alabama fan, whose coklors happen to be red and white........well today I seen a worm that I just had to have. Its crown is blue and orange which...

I think he suffers from OCD. He sets there and every tme a snail comes within his predetermined rage he shoots out and grabs it and carries it into his lair. The snails are those tiny snails that are about as big as a pea and resemble a nassarius.....the entire nbottom of my tank was full of...

Well I had wanted to buy one of those Harbor Freight Gen sets to play with, but my wife putr her foot down. As luck would have it, my friend wanted a small cheap set for carrying in his pickup and bought a HArbor Freight gen set about 2 weeks ago., Its a 2.5 hp 1000 watt with a 4 stroke engine...

A regular routine of water changes does more to cure a problem with a fish than pima or mela fix can? Out of 6 tests run 3 times each treating like infected fish, Mela and Pima fix has always come in dead last in any kind of cure if any at all! It takes 5 plus full strength doses of potassium...

Its unreal how dense some folks are or should I say desperate. There is quite a few auction for the PS 3 on the great auction site but those foks that are bidding are not getting nothing but a picture of the playstation. Just reading the discriptions and the smallprint tells you that, yet they...

I found this to be quite interesting. Things are only going to get tougher in the future too in regards to acquiring decent sand and suitable rock. I can justb see their prices going up to help defray their court fines and costs as well as the losses on that shipment of liverock! Better get...

I never fragged this stuff before, but correct me if I am wrong, but you just pull it apart at the stem junctions of each head, yes / no? The clump I have has gotten 6 or more times larger since I bought it and it almost seems like xenia, that it grows over night.......Any ideas why it has taken...

Ok, my lfs has a few that they got in . Pretty neat looking and they do have some bold vivid flowing tentacles. Evidently they are not dependant on light as a lot of the pics I have seen in the books I have with them in it are in tanks with other stuff that is not all that dependant on light...

We bought a Springeri Dottyback today at *****. It was stated that it was reef safe and got to about 3" oal in size. Well brought it home and placed it in the one tank without any other fish in it for now to keep an eye on it. This tank has lr and ls lots of aipstasia etc but I use it for a...

The local ***** has a new import brand of aquarium salt. Its roughly half the price of the IO and Oceanic salts so I am told, and its made and imported from China. I inquired about it today at the local *****, and all they could tell me was that yes, they will have a import salt and its much...

Just talking to various folks, it seems there are many ways folks tend to feed frozen foods. Some just break a piece of it off and toss in tank and as it melts the food stuff gets into the water column. Others chop it up in tiny bits and feed it like flake or pelleted feed. Some toss mutiple...

I am against using live fish or any other critter to start a cycle. I sure as heck do not think using dead raw shrimp is a good way either due to excessively long cycle times and high ammonia and nitrite levels, and the smell and nasty water it makes. I do not believe the cycle starter stuff you...

I need to relopcate the dude to another tank so he is nort harrassed by the pair of cleaner shrimp that currently sharew the tank. Any ideas on how to catch it? I tried putting food in the net and allowing the tanks water current to hold the net open and keep the food at the back, but that...

I started this 10 gal taank using 5# of good live rock removed from an established tank and dropped in the 10 within seconds, so no die off. I used dry, live sand (***** special on wet packed bags that leaked all the qater out that I got dirt cheap) and also 4# of good live sand from an...

Yesterday I was in town and decided to checkout thelocal thrift stores (Goodwill, Salvation Army, Kings Ranch etc etc) Wow.....what prices n used tanks. Goodwill: They had an old 10 gal tank (typical wally world special for $29.95 every day price) but this tank had an old incandesant type...

I have a bunch of IV infusion sets and lots of new unused never fillled bags I want to set up on some PICO tanks. So what are the IV drip sets usually used and inserted by paramedics...MICRO or MACRO drip infusion sets......How do you tell the difference? I assume its what 20 drops = 1ml, so...
