Well, my tank sold over the weekend, and is now in a new home in San Diego. I am a bit nostalgic about it, but happy nonetheless. I think the new owner will do fine, and I think the fish are in good hands. So, at least for now my SWF tank days are on hold. I just wanted to thank everyone who...

I don't get it, but not a lot of interest was shown on my 100G Reef Tank. It was well worth the money I was asking, but now I am moving and need to sell it quickly. So..... I am slashing the price! Anyone not interested in this is nuts! Tank is drilled in left rear corner. Has sump and...

Many of you know I am selling my 100g Reef Tank. I posted an ad for it in the Recycler for my area. I have gotten several emails from people in which I question the validity. I had an email from someone in Greece, saying they have a shipping agent that will pick it up. Another was from some...

Well, I've enjoyed this hobby for several years now, and love my tank. But despite that, things in my life have changed and I just don't have the time or the money for it anymore. My 6 month old daughter takes up the time I used to spend on my tank, and that always comes first. I posted my...

The other day I noticed for the first time a tiny crab in a large hole in my live rock. In total, legs and all, it was about the size of a fingernail. The claws were the same length as the legs unlike a sally, but the markings were similar (bands on the legs and claws). It was picking off of...

An interesting read... Releasing Nemo Could Harm Local Fish Species

Woke up yesterday morning, to find a huddled mass of hermits, sally's, nassarious snails, and my brittle star munching on something. Moved closer to see it was my fire shrimp! I don't know whether it died of natural causes, or if something got a hold of it. But it's been in there for a...

Title says it all...It was working fine, and one day I came home, and the return was a constant flow out of one side only. I pulled my return apart, and ran some fresh water through the SCWD, and now it is a constant flow out of both sides. But it doesn't alternate! Anyone else ever had this...

Well, I am really upset. I am renting a house that is in the process of being sold. Yesterday, I received a call from the current owner saying they have to tent the house for termites before escrow ends. The escrow company won't let them wait until after I move out, so they want to do this...

Well, he's disappeared for days on end before, then re-appeared (thus his name). So I didn't think much of it that he hasn't been around for the last week. I added some corals, and a little rock, and was worried maybe I pinned him under the sandbed. Yesterday, I came home to find my hermits...

Ok...freaking out right now....I knew it was coming up, but I thought I had a few weeks to prepare. But I found out yesterday it's on Monday! I am having fusion surgery on my spine - fusing the L5-S1 vertebrae. GULP! I'll be in the hospital for a few days then home to recover...

Posted these originally in the photography forum, but no one looked..... :nope: Since SquishyFish got such good feedback, I figured I'd delete that thread and try it here instead...so here goes... #1 - Yellow Tang w/ Blue Tang in background along with a few green ricordia...

Blitzen, a young reindeer at the Santa Claus House in North Pole, Alaska, leaps on KTUU Channel 2 reporter Meghan Stapleton as Stapleton was doing a holiday story, in this image from television Monday, Dec. 22, 2003. Stapleton was not injured and even managed to hold on to the leash to keep...

Just had a 6.5 in Central CA. Way North of me (near Burbank), but our building was rolling here too. Thought it was my eyes for a second until I realized it was me that was moving... Anyone else feel it? Anyone closer to it, I hope you are OK!

Got a friend of mine on the road in Northern CA right now who came across a 450g acrylic tank for sale. I guess it is a little scratched up. Anyone know how good scratch removal is on acrylic? Can it be done without hazing the tank? Tank is 8 ft long by 3 ft tall, not sure of depth. If so...

Right now, I am just using the standard return pump (Iwaki 40RT), and an additional Maxijet 1200 for circulation in my tank. I have been thinking of modifying that. I have heard of many different devices, but can't decide which is the best to go with. Wavemaker (wave controller hooked up to...

OK. Went to the LFS yesterday, and he showed me a nice piece of Monti...looked kind of like a Capricornus, but not sure. It was pale yellow, with sky blue polyps. I have never seen one like it before. My LFS wanted $90 for it, which was just too rich for my blood right now. Has anyone ever...

I have 2 - 250w 10k MH's running. They are running off electronic ballasts, with Ushio bulbs. One of them keeps shutting off. It had happened once before, and the ground wire was the culprit. Hadn't happened in a long time after I fixed that. Recently, it started doing it again. The screw...

OK, I am just scratching my head over this one... My fuge was doing great. I have two household floodlight type fixtures over it, with the equivalent of 200W. A friend did this, and his fuge grows like crazy. Mine did too for a while. I have been battling hair algae, primarily bryopsis for a...
