Well, it's been awhile but I wanted to update the group on my tank. The tank is now 10 months old and things have gone well. I had to do a complete service on the tank last Sunday and I wanted to make sure that I kept all of my chemicals and SW the right levels.

Mexican Restaurant we used to go to at Embarcadero One. Incredible margaritas. This was right before we would head over to Broadway and catch a band at The Stone... wow, dating myself now. Hairbands...Motley Crue... oh, the humanity.

I would absolutely freak out. I lived in San Francisco for 14 years and never went through anything like this. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=f83_1189627715

Cool! I need a pair of size -1.0 Jordans for my Royal Gramma. My Green Chromis keeps asking me for the retro tennis Nike. Do you have a size -3.0 in green? (He's a fashion victim)

Welp, we're off and running! I met with the developers on Tuesday and they've started building the app. Now, here's the bonus... I get to invite a select few to become beta members when we get to that point. Right now they're telling me that we're looking at somewhere around a month. I want...

Thanks guys! I do ensure that my salinity and temp match so I guess I'll keep going! Sweet!

Every Sunday is my maintenance day. Even with a 47g my total time spent is about an hour to an hour and a half but my question is this. Every week I do a water change of 5g in my tank (roughly 10%). I've always read that you do a 5% change every week or a 10% change every two weeks. My...

Asbolutely stunning. Great work!! There are very few tanks that I see where I say, "Yep, that's what I'm working towards." Yours is one of those tanks.

$9 green chromis x 2 $20 true percs x 2 $21 Royan Grammas x 2 Total cost... $101. Now corals? Different story...

I got my first tank (75g) in 2001. A year later I got my 110g, then because of my travel schedule I had to give all of it away in 2004. I never found anything else that made me feel as stress-free as when I was looking or working on my tank. That's why I got back into it in December. I've...

Guess I'm a little lost.. they were shipped together (actually saw them when they arrived at my friends LFS), held in the same tank with no other inhabitants together, they were in the same 20g tank for 2 weeks QT together... Research says that two can be held in the same tank together if one...

Got my new RG's today (one big, one small). After acclimating them I released them into the tank and naturally they scurried behind my rock... that was 9 hours ago. I did read that they stay close to their covering so that they can dart back in case of emergency. However, the large one has...
