Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Just saw this in my hang-on fuge, thinking it’s a spaghettti worm. Makes sense because there was nothing in the fuge that would look like a stick or tube (only chaeto, snails, and pods). Anyone think it’s something else? If it is something else, is it something I should remove?
And that...
Yeah, depending on how deep your sand bed is it could have burrowed down to rest. Mine covers itself about 3/4 of his body depth so I can still find it, but it will remain motionless for hours or even a few days at a time. Then I’ll find it out and about sifting the sand again. Cool creature...
I use the clip-on Home Depot light too on my hang-on fuge. It works much better than the light that came with it. Instantly increased the growth and the chaeto looked much healthier.
A couple of months ago I tossed some snails in the fuge and since then the chaeto’s looked even better, crisp...
I set up a small area in the sand where my main rock work blocks the conch from getting to so I can keep some coral on the sand safely. You can consider that-can be a nice contrast to the open sand bed elsewhere.
Any concern having that on the sand with Dave the conch trucking around? My fighting conch bulldozes whatever I have on the sand unless I place it on a small rock.
Sorry to hear. I like the place, have had success with their stock and my kids love checking out the variety of other pets they sell there too. Many of the staff aren’t saltwater knowledgeable but I appreciate that nobody’s trying the hard sell there and they don’t pretend to know what they...
There were several types of clowns but didn’t pay too much attention; the tomato clowns were real nice. I went for a Bartlett’s anthias and got a juvenile that’s doing great. Previously bought my tailspot Benny and royal gramma there.
I know a lot of members shop at this store and it’s great. I like that every fish they have has a date posted that it was received so we can tell how long they have been in stock and acclimated. I’m always nervous getting a new arrival knowing how much stress fish can be under from shipping...
I’ve been told high light and nutrients are key. I too just upgraded lighting and am starting to test nutrients, want to learn about dosing and managing nutrient levels before trying a clam.
