Looks great Matt, and most importantly WELCOME BACK! Glad to see you back around here. I missed your subtle *cough* sense of humor!

That's pretty sweet, right there! Congrats and good luck with it!

LOL!

Sounds like a great experience. It's really nice to hear stories like this. Where are they located?

We have a cooler we can bring, Bob. We just need to get more people to RSVP! C'mon everyone, just click the link above and let Bob know you'll be there. For anyone new to the club or the forum, you don't need to be a member to attend meetings. You just need to be a reefer looking to hang out...

Sorry to hear about the loss. Unfortunately, I don't think purple reef lobsters are as reef safe as some sites claim. I have a friend who put one in his tank and began to "mysteriously" lose fish on a fairly regular basis right up until the time he took his tank apart and removed it.

Thanks a good idea Dave. Also, something a friend of mine did was glue (or rubberband) a nice size piece of styrofoam to the top of the float arm. This way if it sticks for any reason the foam will help pull it up. It's certainly not a replacement for a bulk head to handle over flows but it is a...

LOL on Switzerland! The star fish are most likely micro brittle stars which are good for your system. The aptaisia, not so much! Thanks for joining the club, BTW. We appreciate the support.

Lou, most RO/DI units will only dump waste water when the unit is use. When the float valve in the barrel shuts off the flow from the RO/DI unit, the waste water should stop too (usually within a minute or two). I'm not sure what RO/DI unit you have, though so yours may be different.

That's never a bad idea! In addition to showing your support for the club, it pays for itself over and over again just in the savings from group buys.

Nice progress shots, Jack. When I first saw the pics of the two rocks I was wondering where the tank was going but it really took shape nicely. Keep up the good work.

I have no idea but for some reason they just don't do well. Believe it or not, I can't keep Xenia, Kenya's, or Star Polyps either. In most systems they grow like weeds but in mine they waste away to nothing and disappear.

Bob, I'd love to help you out but lighting is not my strong suit. There are so many options and choices that whenever I read these threads I feel like I'm reading an unsolved cryptoquote!

Unfortunately, zoa's don't do too well in our system. Once this switches to LPS/SPS we'll definitely get involved.

LOL! I was waiting for someone from the AO crew to suggest this! I was going to include it but I thought I'd leave it up to one Will's Couch Potatos!

Hey Jim, that's great news. I wish you a lot of luck. Some of the things I look for in a store are: A good selection of healthy livestock - Not the just the run-of-the-mill, but a good mix of both unusual and common fish and corals. A good mix of frags and colonies. Descent pricing, but I...

That type of cardinal (also known as the Banggai Cardinal) is peaceful, hardy and will generally get along with most other species. The BIG problem with them is that they are being completely over fished and have made it to the endangered species list. If you have your heart set on it, find...

One thing to keep in mind is that you don't want a lot of turn over in your fuge. That being the case, it's best to set up a scenario where you can send a portion of your systems flow through the fuge at a lower rate and have it drain back to the sump. In my system, I have the fuge fed by a Tee...

Great! Welcome aboard. In the next day or so you should have access to a bunch of new forums, including the one for Group Buys. Thanks for the support.
