    General McChrystal relieved from command...

    there are times that i prefer to be deployed compared to dealing with politics that's for sure. Life is very simple especially when you do live out in the boonies, you learn to enjoy the little things in life. reefraff- i hope your son stays safe over in the 'ghan and good luck to him.

    General McChrystal relieved from command...

    darthtang i am pretty sure it is a demotion for Gen. Petraus, b/c he was McCrystals boss. i am not sure exactly what that means but he is probably the best choice to get afghanistan back on track. hopefully he will be able to meet the goals/timelines put in place. scottnlisa- i am not going to...

    hey everyone. its been a while. need some opinions

    the lights would be money for a frag tank. you can mount them however high you want so if you feel its too much light, just raise the light fixtures. you will see good growth with the 250w MH with sps/lps/softies. the plumping question... i think a mag18 will be overkill, unless you throttle it...

    Zac's 75 gallon aquarium

    ditto what meowzer said with the numbers. see how 12 nassirus and 12 ceriths and 1 fighting conch do. you can always add more if they dont seem to be making a dent on the algae on your sandbed.

    Zac's 75 gallon aquarium

    what do you have for a clean up crew? a good crop of nassirus snails will help. since you have a 75 gal, a conch or two would help as well.

    Help me turn my rocks purple/pink please!!

    the lights you have will work. the cal a&b will get any coralline you have grow. just remember that it is a calcium based algae so it will need the calcium or consistent w/c to keep the calcium levels up. good luck!

    Good Beginner Coral

    i would go with either a shroom or a leather (ie a colt or finger) they tend to be really hardy and easy to care for. zoos seem to be a hit or miss, same with the xenia.

    Help me turn my rocks purple/pink please!!

    it should grow. but to have it spread depends on a few things. first you need to have a rock w/coraline already on it. if you do, you can put it near a powerhead or a return with will help spread it. also add calcium a&b or some purple up to you tank. and the lights you have, the more powerful...
