So after 9 months of culturing, our new frag (Taylor Anne Zemanek) was born July 1st, 8 lbs 20". I have included a couple of pics of the new frag along with a few random pics to remind everybody of who we are since, I hav'nt had the time to be online much recently. Enjoy! I hope I still remember...
Well at about 12 noon today I walked into Red Sand and found Feng ankle deep in water. seems he was working on his big Frag tank and dropped a piece of rock. Needless to say his tank now has a hole in it about the size of a baseball! He was scurrying around trying to get all his pieces into his...
Just got a call from Bob (former owner of the Eagles Reef in Hillsborough)He has opened a new store, Warren Aquariums 31 Mountain Blvd Warren NJ ::) ??? :o ;D
Well the wife and I just got back from a place called Splash on Rt. 513 in Long Valley NJ. They have excellent seafood. But what is really cool is that all the walls have giant plasma TV's on them that play constant reef and ocean videos like the ones you would see on the documentary channels...
you could always give up reefing and spend 40k on a racecar and 400 a weekend on tires and fuel! O wait a minute thats some other thread I was reading ;D ;D not to go through that whole thing again but seriously....ditch the sand, get a turkey baster, a siphon hose and your life will be much easier!

the cuttingboard company is actually located in NJ I think the wharehouse is in Frenchtown but I dealt with one of the salesman he lives in Branchburgh just off of RT. 202. just went to his house with templates and the next day he took them to the shop and cut the pieces for me for me.
Hey Jim just as a heads up when I had my spray bar running across the bottom of my 8ft. tank I noticed that the 1/4 holes that were the farthest from the pump received the least amount of flow. So you might want to think about drilling smaller holes closest to the pump and gradually increase the...
If these spray bars are in a closed loop configuration they would not have any back pressure. On the downside....every time I have used spray bars (with 1/4" holes)the holes become clogged with tiny snails, algae etc. etc. This will not be a big deal iof you make the spray bar easy to clean, but...
blange would probably be able to give you the best advice as he once owned a pet store. I would think your best chance of finding one would be at your local 4-H fair, but they don't come around until summer.

2 quick question......
Are you planning on running exhaust fan 24/7 or just when your lites are on?
If you are going to run fan 24/7 should'nt you have a way for fresh air to circulate back into the fish room?
If you want to incorporate a fuge but don't trust a sump why don't you look into a Aquaclear 820 HOB take a look around on RC in the nano forum, there are many who convert this HOB into a fuge. I can tell ya it works great I have a 12 gallon nano with an 820 on the back of it and my corals love...
When i was having our house built I new exactly where my filtration room was going to be in my basement. So before I poured the floor I roughed in a drain line in the center of the filtration room thinking that when we poured the floor i would just pitch the concrete in that section so that any...
