ouch....all i can say is that don't rush to toss it yet...i had a validia that i thought was dead, and then my rbta walked over it to compound matters - but somehow someway it's survived...not as pretty but it made it. HOpefully that is the case with your corals....but ugh sorry to hear.

what are you going to keep in there?

+1. Anyways non-reefers always love the wavy stuff and comment on how beautiful it is. Sps sticks? meh... Anyways sps that are a bit less sensitive such as orange cap monitpora or idaho grape cap etc might work better in your tank. People have mentioned how their sunset monti is...

how old are the lights in the nano vs the 44? are they the same mixture of ATI or whatever brand bulb mix?

i replaced my old compressor and got a frigidaire 3 ton 16 seer. This past heat wave was not even noticable - the thing actuallly turned off. That never happened with my old piece of junk. I got the NJ clean energy rebate too which helped to defer the steep cost. Overall i'm happy with the...

I'm sure you get can cheaper gas further south in jersey, but if you happen to be driving up route 1 to Menlo Park or something - consider a pit stop here. It's off (going northbound) Exit 2A (southbound, exit at metuchen 3 and drive local) on I287 or two traffic lights down vineyard road off...

+1. btw - i fixed the pics for you. Just click on the icon that says "insert image", choose "URL" and then paste it in. I unclick the check box also...but play around if you want to try it.

Just thinking that maybe you haven't done enough homework to suggest that raising baby hippo tangs to a "decent size* to sell is a viable business proposition. Margins in this business are slim and if there was a way to do that- ORA and all the other big players would have long done this.

i would error on the side of caution and just go with the smaller amt. I started with a small cup on my 120 and left it going for a good while and observed the tank. Then I just loaded the whole octopus reactor with the npx pellets. So far so good...now my reactor is only 3/4 full due to...

Heres' the big thread I wrote on clownfish breeding....enjoy if you have the time!!! lol http://www.njreefers.org/showthread.php?71076-Clownfish-Log&daysprune=-1

I (knock on wood) never had a rotifer crash though I read about them. The key is not to overfeed and to change out the water with some frequency. they don't need fancy saltwater so I used to order separate salt buckets (io) just for breeding. This also applies to the fry. The idea of two...

I forget if this was the batch I had on display at Liberty science Center that one night...if not then this was the batch that we gave away to the NJ Academy for Aquatic Sciences at the Adventure Aquarium. I had too many different batches going on and really did not want to re-pack them back...

some more pics...this is a bc29 gallon tank:

Thanks George!!! Flare - If you have the time and the money, breeding clowns is relatively straightforward. They will lay eggs every 2 weeks so if you plan on dropping eggs off all over central jersey - you're going to be one very busy person....lol. The reality is that I've had several...

It would turn all orange if cooked...lol

i didn't even know what a SFE is!

an octopus would also work. But then you'd be left with a full octopus and no fish.... sorry i don't have a trap myself...otherwise I'd bring it over!
