    Torch Dead???

    I had similar problems with a couple Hammer corals, which are in the same family as your Torch. One of them died back almost completly and I thought it was lost. I kept the piece in the tank anyway and after about 6 months it came back. Its not as big as it was, but it is growing. I've heard...

    feeding a brain...

    I have an Open Brain that I feed pieces of shrimp, mussel or squid. I just chop it up into small pieces and put it on the end of a long bamboo skewer. I can then place it gently into the brains feeder tentacles and it will grab the food. Just have to have the food barely on the skewer. I also...

    ID this coral for me please

    Although I am certainly no expert when it comes to coral identification (but getting better), I also think this is a Blue Ridge coral. I have a small piece that my LFS broke off and gave me and it looks very similar. I had it in my old tank under 285 watts VHO and he said to place it in a hole...

    the 1k mark for me

    That would explain the "JTI" in your signature. Mine sits way low too, which isn't the greatest thing with the roads here in New Orleans. Great car though. Its got the 1.8T in it too Dew

    the 1k mark for me

    Congratulations! I'm slowly working my way there. By the way, I'm guessing you like VW's. I bought one in July (GTI), best time of the day is the ride to work and the (much slower) ride home. Dew

    sump with macros?

    Sorry about the delay in getting back to you. I don't have a real good diagram, but heres a picture of my modified 29 gallon. I thought about making one outta a 10 gallon too, but decided to upgrade the whole display from a 30 to a 40 Breeder. While you wouldn't get as much benefit from a 10...

    sump with macros?

    I combined the Sump and Fuge into one modified 29 gallon and its working very well for me. Divided into 3 sections. First one is for the water entrance, where I also put the heater and may move my hang-on skimmer once I figure out thow to modify it. Second section is the fuge area, with DSB...

    How often do you perform water changes?

    5 gallons every other week on a 40 gallon display with 20 gallons or so in the sump. Probably should do more, but it seems to be working well. I usually let the replacemnt water age for 3-4 days with a powerhead prior to adding it to the tank.

    Green brain - just got it and it won't eat. :(

    I have one Open Brain Coral and went through a similar thing with the tentacles. I discovered that my coral extends them later on at night/early in the morning. I feed mine when I get up (5am) and the tentacles are all out. Tank is still dark at this time. The other thing I discovered was that I...

    is ryebread really banned?!!?

    I noticed the same thing earlier and was wondering what was up, especially since I'd just spent over an hour reading about the "Giant Sponge" from a previous member who is banned. I'd read a reference to the "Sponge" thread this morning and had to check it out. Had to be one of the funniest...
