    the water in my tank finally cleared up enough to see the back in order to aquascape. as soon as i moved the first 2 rocks: poof! i did as much as i could by feeling around, braile style, so when the water clears in the a.m. i'll leave you some pics and see what you guys think.

    New Hobbyist saltwater stocking schemes help

    i'll tell you what i did to help me figure out what i really wanted and if it was possible: i checked out those threads that natclanwy was speaking of, and i took some time to browse the fish, coral, and inverts available through SWF.com to see what was compatible with what, and to see what the...

    the start of my 20L adventure lol

    whatever's clever dude. i just dont see why you should spend $260 to get the lights you really want instead of the $200 they really cost. i know you didn't get into this hobby as a method of saving money, so you might as well spend it wisely, eh?

    erock's 125 build thread

    today has been a game of hurry up and wait. i removed all the water from last nights test to see if the tank was water-tight. i filled it and put all the new LR and sand in it. i piled the sand on the front half of the tank so when the water clears i can stack all the LR and move the sand to...

    erock's 125 build thread

    here's what's been done so far, i'll post pics later today: I had a 55g that was up and running for a year or so, but never had anything in it but a little bit of LR. I finally put in 2 clowns and then started posting on SWF. I realized that 55g wasnt going to be big enough for me, so i...

    Cycling question

    it means that your cycle is finishing up. first your amm will drop to 0, then your trites, and then your trates will fall, hopefully to 0. best way to get rid of trates is to do water changes.

    How long do we have ? ? ?

    I gotta tell ya, i know all too well that talking politics or religion is a sure fire way to make somebody angry. HOWEVER, i do feel sorry for all those that think Obama isn't the right man for the job. the fact of the matter is: he IS our president elect, and i would hope all the right...

    Manti vs Octo

    that's pretty vicious. i was wondering about mantis shrimp a while ago, as i'd like to have one... at least i did until i saw that video and the harm they can cause. are they reef safe? seems like an almost stupid question at this point.
