...at least until last August anyway. I'm working on the last four months as we speak but since I was already a whole YEAR behind, I thought it best if I just put up what I had and play catch-up from here. Not suprisingly, it's a pretty massive update with over 200 new pictures and, based on...

Originally posted by Kipass4130 didnt you have some RTN issues a month ago.. whatever came of that? I had to frag the heck out of one of the larger corals in the tank on Christmas Day with a housefull of relatives and guests. Everything with the tank is fine now...of course, I'M still...

...Yeah, 'bout time, I know. But for those who care, this one IS a big one: lots of new text (covers Feb. '03-Oct. '03, including last summer's Crystal Sea/ Instant Ocean crisis) and nearly 100 new pictures! So please stop by when you have the time. I'd appreciate your thoughts. www.moyesreef.com

I don't want to mislead anyone: The 'rtn' here appears to be an isolated incident. Everything else seems fine...so far. But the disappearance of the Majanoes is a new one on me. And apparently, it's new to most others too.

Originally posted by Thomas712 :notsure: I have never heard of such an event. I would definatly wonder if the RTN and the majono disaperance had anything to do with one another. Is it possible that some type of chemical warfare is going on :confused: Did you do a water change and run fresh...

To give here everyone a little backstory, this has NOT been one of my better Christmases, reefwise. Early Christmas morning, I awoke to discover that one of my oldest and largest acros has begun to 'rtn' for no apparent reason. The timing of this crisis made my wife understandibly upset as we...

This series was taken with the digital equivalent of a 900mm lens. The final image is totality; the legendary Blood Moon, taken at a much slower shutter speed.

Over the years my shoal of Bartletts and Bicolor Anthias have dwindled from 11 and 6 to 6 and 0. The remaining 6 Barletts are pretty large and 'tank-wise'. Therefore, I've been advised that adding new and (no doubt) smaller Bartletts to the shoal would cause most them to be killed. True? How...

What other fish are they in with?

Originally posted by waterfaller1 Beautiful fish!Good luck,what will you call "her"?? Well, my wife said if I ever swipe her expensive shrimp to feed 'her' again, I can call her 'Honey'! :D

Success!!! A 'combo plate' of chopped fresh shrimp and Cyclop-eeze finally did the trick. And what's almost as good is that I didn't even have to leave the house to get this stuff since, coincidentally, my wife had just bought the shrimp as appitizers to serve a few of her friends who came by...

Originally posted by RyeBread That is a beautiful Crosshatch Michael! I assume that you are planning on putting it in your reef? It's the only Trigger that I would consider in a reef tank.......maybe a Sargassum. I was looking into them for a while, but I didn't want to drop the cash on one...

Got this 4" Crosshatch by MO yesterday and it came in with a pretty sunken belly (hopefully you can see it in the attatched image). Don't know whether this has reached the muscular stage yet but so far, the fish has not eaten this mornings offering of PE Mysis (soaked in Selcon) and Formula...

Originally posted by jumpfrog For those who are looking mainly at coral food, when do you feed (day or night) and how often? I feed my 'Sps' corals Golden Pearls from Brine Shrimp Direct. I use the three smallest sizes (the largest size being more for the 'Lps' corals) and I feed twice a...

Formula One, Formula Two, Prime Reef, Enriched Brine, Special VHP, PE Mysis, Nori (soaked in Selcon), JhemCo's Spirulina Flakes, Cyclop-Eeze, Gracillaria, and whatever 'pods and such they can glean from the refugium.... ...but not all at the same time. :)

I've been using it awhile now, about three times a week. Both my Chromis and Anthias behave like children under the pinata at a birthday party. I'm also sure it's being taken up by some of the 'Lps' corals as well. In fact, the only negative I've ever heard about this stuff is, if you have...

Originally posted by Melody 64 Ivy ~ Thanks for the reply. I keep hearing that a DSB only has about 5 good years before it crashes. I don't know if that's BS or not but it does have me concerned. Although my 75 is practically a nano compared to yours!! I would dread having to pull all the sand...

Originally posted by Melody ... just wondering what made you decide to go BB. Long story short: When I was planning the tank back in '96, I was actually wanting to go with a sandbed but I couldn't get a consensus in regards to depth, grain size or... well, anything really. In fact, the only...

Well, after a major fragging and overhaul last spring, a major problem (CS/IO) last summer, a major hurricane, and a major blackout, I am finally at the point with the tank where I can pick up a camera again. Not completely finished yet (who ever is) but for the first time in a while, I can say...
