Just as the subject says - who will be at MACNA this weekend?

If you are looking for info. regarding coral fragging and or invert information, please see this thread: https://forums.saltwaterfish.com/t/131485/signed-books Thank you.

I don't know if this is OK to post, but - If anyone wants info. on signed copies of Anthony Calfo's fragging book or reef invert book, please drop me an e-mail. ghreef@optonline.net I may be able to trade things for them (since selling them would be direct competition to swf)

I have an idea about the DSB issue that is occurring in our threads lately. My idea only applies to larger tanks, but I'm sure someone will think of a way to modify it to fit smaller tanks. Imagine there is a tank just for the fuge. So display has only a SSB. In the fuge you have a DSB and all...

OK, my alk is at 8.5 dKH. I would like to get it up to around 10 or 11dKH. Which is a more suggested method - baking soda or some sort of buffer additive. And about how slowly should I be doing this? I'm thinking about using baking soda and putting it in across an hour in the morning so if...

I was wondering. I keep seeing the term 'mature tank' and I would like to open up a discussion on it quickly. Whenever I see 'mature tank' it is coupled with balanced chemicals, stable water conditions - stable Ca, Alk & pH etc.. It has led to to believe that these things make up the...

OK a while back I posted about an all white mushroom that I have growing on some LR. I was told it was just lacking pigment due to lack of light. Well, it's been well over a week now, and there is absoloutly no change in color whatsoever. Questions are: How long can it take for color to return...

READ THE POST - THEN LOOK AT THE PICTURE!!! I got this via e-mail and had to share it with everyone here. Here's how the e-mail went: READ THE STORY THEN LOOK AT THE PICTURE A picture began circulating in November. It should be "The Picture of the Year," or perhaps, "Picture of the Decade." It...

Has anyone every seen an, all white mushroom? I just found one on some new LR and was wondering if this is rare or not.

I don't think this exists, so could someone please build a dishwasher safe protein skimmer. I do not want any royalties from sale except for one of them free. And in the off chance that they do exist, can someone please tell me who makes them. Thanx;)

I was checking out the bottom of my dsb for the first time last night and saw two circles. One is brown and one is a very dark blue almost black. There doesn't appear to be anything wrong with the tank, but it looks like when glass is shot with a bullet. You know those expanding circles...

How did your friend ever make out? I think the last post had him going into surgery. Did everything turn out OK? My families thoughts and prayers have been with him, and everyone at father's day dinner was asking: "Hey how's that guy whose friend is on that saltwater place and helped during...

Is there anyone from north or central NJ who is involved with a reef/ frag trading club? They sound like neat ideas and I was wondering if any exist to join. Thanx.

OK, that may have been a dirty subject but- Currently I have glass versa-tops on my reef tank. After reading a post on this subject I'm thinking about altering my setup. Here's my problem... My MH bulbs are close enough to the tank that I'm worried about water splashing and popping the bulbs...

OK, so I think I want to add some more things for sand bed. I just wanted to check my picks with everyone... I would like to add a few scarlet hermits, some spaghetti worms, some bristle worms, some chitons, and some amphipods. The worms I want to add to the main tank. The pods will go in the...

I was just reading the post about corraline algae, and saw that it is possible to run skimmerless. Here's my deal: tank about 5 months old have a fuge have a sump no fish yet you can see all my livestock in my sig. I do add some squid once a week to feed all the inverts amm -0 trites -0 trates...

Earlier I posted that my featherduster lost it's feathers. Well, I just came home from the movies and the whole worm was laying on the sand getting picked at by a shrimp. I decided to take it out, and noticed all these "flea" type bugs crawling around on it!? I haven't added any live sand to...

I come downstairs this morning to find one of my feather duster's feathers floating in the tank! Does this mean it's dead? I'm going to test my water param.s now. BTW, the other feather I have is fully extended like normal, and a little baby duster is out too.:(

I've been monitoring my tank for a while now and decided I needed more calcium. It was hovering at 350. So I read all of boomer5's info on calc, alk & ph. I also read other posts on calc. and decided I would try dosing with Kalkwasser. I mixed up 5 gallons worth and let stand overnight. The...

OK, this is probable a no-no, but I have to ask the question- If I have a cleaner shrimp (which from what I understand cleans parasites like ick) why can't I put the two clownfish I have into my main tank with the cleaner? A little history: I do have a QT tank where the clownfish are. I bought...
