I like him very much. Tough little fish! Holding his own, pushing his way to the food. A little shy but comes out a lot. Hides when the lights go out. Kind of damsel-like in his attitude towards the other fish. Pushy but not mean. The only coral-thing he's really tried to eat has been some...

I added a couple tiny cleaner shrimps to the tank. They were a good deal. My friend (who has an LFS) has been doing some direct importing from Sri Lanka, skipping the wholesaler. If the storeowner is willing to assume the risk, the prices are pretty shocking. Juvenile imperators are $1. Adults...

Did the big annual cleaning on my tall protein skimmer and suffered the usual consequences. This giant ETSS 1000 has a 5' column full of bioballs. They need to be at least cleaned every year. You can see performance start to drop as the column gets clogged. Last year they got clogged with...

It's probably just a tiny bit of methyl alcohol, no worries, already gone!

Re: Here's my now 375 (was 120) by Bax Looking great Bax! Nice manifold. I am pretty happy with mine, it's a very handy part of any big reef. I'm getting ready to sacrifice the last open port to a refugium, although I'm going to put a quick release on it so I can still use it for emergency...

HAH! I saw posionous cones at Hanover Pet once. The said they came in by accident. I don't think that's a cone.

My first thought was static charge, like rice grains in a plastic jar...but that is really interesting. As a lifelong member of the Iknowitall Tribe, I am always amazed at how much there is left to learn in this hobbby!

Not very impressive...it's just a tan seriatopora that grows in arc-shapes. I don't think there's a photo but the next time I take some I'll snap one.

Of course I forgot a couple, Pink Birdsnest (17) Idaho Grape Montipora Capricornis (16) and the blacklist, RIP (ORA) Bellina (8.) Loisette Acro (blue green stag)(17) Wild-hack A. Humilis (3) Wild-hack Table Frag (3) Blastomussa Frag (X) Crystal Favia (X) Several fussy maricultured Acros

I thought it would be fun to make a list of the corals I have under cultivation (a few are just hanging in there, but anyway...). I was surprised how many, I don't think about it day-to-day. Acroporas! Pink and Blue Millepora (1) Yellow Mille with Green Polyps (3) Sunset Mille (2) (ORA)...

Damn, I would use a boat! That's MANLY!

Bump :)

Ugh, don't you love finding that. Was the reef OK? I hope you have a Shop Vac!

I've been putting in 1 tbs per day in my ~250G volume. I am going to cut back gradually to half that.

Foxface is fine. Not eating bubble algae YET but really plows through those nori sheets and the ulva I got. It's really like watching a cow eat, they don't stop. the funny thing is that now the PBT thinks he's not getting his shere so he eats more nori. Fish are crazy, man! My two different...

At one point I was out there with my regular non-telephoto lens and I was standing right under the tree. The big bear growled at me and swatted the branches hard enough to make some fall down. Then I thought about what would happen if the bear fell down on top of me or next to me. Then I went...

Three VERY little bears and their mom got stuck in a tree by my house. Now I'm gonna have a pair of boots, a hat, AND a rug! Just kidding but I did get some pretty good pictures... Big Momma! Best to just take a nap...

The Majestic is very camera-shy. This is the only good picture I've gotten so far: It's incredible, when you consider the way he cruises around that tank. He sees that camera, and BOOM, he dives into a cave. He must have been caught by someone wearing an SLR! Still doing well. Has eaten some...

Drill baby drill! Coming soon to most of the Eastern Seaboard!  :P Hey, what happened all those TV adds with that gal talking about how offshore drilling is so safe now, and helps America achieve energey independence? They pulled those ads off pretty quick! Petroleum flavored shrimp cocktail...
