    Tank left outside, in the rain.

    Ryan's corals are notorious for being the non-rain surviving type. He does hand paint the zoas though, which look nice.

    Miracle mud?

    Never used it and have had great tanks with live rock and tons of pods in the past. Can't understand why folks go for RODI, adjust and dose, cure and condition live rock, then add this stuff with random detritus and chem profiles. If your starting with this stuff, its an expensive alternative to...

    Tank left outside, in the rain.

    Gotta go with RR here. For a landlord too lazy to come out of her apartment to supply a key to a tenant and requiring your boyfriend to break into the building seems odd. To have that same extremely lazy landlord move even a tiny tank outside, say 10g, with rock, and substrate, and water (even...

    Lets go shoot stuff! Medieval style!

    Well, the bow is done. She's just over 7' in height. 28" draw (standard for longbows) at 50-55 pound draw. Carved a few dragons in her, few coats of poly, and she's good to go. Now waiting on some forged bodkin arrowheads, a few ash shafts, and after grabbing some duck feathers from the garden...

    Rodi buddie advice to lower waste

    Running a Buddy for a few years now. Two years back I got the booster. TREMENDOUS difference in increased output and decreased waste. Plus it backwashes the membranes in the RODI unit as well every time it shuts down...

    Taylor ham ?

    Good to see that the largest conversation in ages for the reef club is in regards to pork products. ;)

    Giant Hermit Baby

    Tempted. How'd the RC order do? Last I ordered alone I received a 100% death shipment. Last club order we had about 10 of us and I don't think anyone was satisfied with the order, many didn't even get a live animal. Would be nice to know if they're getting back to reliability.

    3D printer people..

    Odd design on that, simpler to make the uprights straight. Can crack out a design and print a bunch if Sybil has any trouble.

    Great Petco in brick

    They had some concerns with Andrew on a leave of absence (at one point they asked if I wanted to work the weekends). Tanks went to Heck and the arrivals were being handled roughly, I saw a staff member trying to catch a wrasse about a year back and with the trauma the fish suffered I doubt it...

    Taylor ham ?

    Brooklyn, and NY in general, has the best pizza on the planet, and I've lived in 4 countries and travelled extensively. I had a bagel in Harlem last weekend that was unbelievable. Repeated the next morning at another breakfast spot and was just as good. Something in the NYC water, be it...

    Taylor ham ?

    Kleenex are tissues, not all tissues are Kleenex. Brillo is steel wool, not all steel wool is Brillo. Taylor Ham is pork roll, not all pork roll is Taylor Ham (though Taylor Ham is the pinnacle of deep fryable tube shaped processed fatty pig flesh and slaughterhouse by-products)

    Hawkfish

    I've been told lawnmowers are docile. Mine kicks the living &^%^ out of the clowns and makes a bee line to my hand if its in the tank.

    New-Any and all advice!

    Hi Sybil and welcome aboard! Best of luck with starting. There's a few basics you'll need to pick up, keep in mind this is an expensive hobby. Its best to start out properly with decent equipment. If you buy cheap you're going to be replacing it within a year. We've all been there, we've all...

    Absolutely disgusting!!!

    Head Crab, probably escaped from The Black Mesa Research Labs. But seriously, think it came in on the coral?

    WTB 60 cube Brick 08724

    Thanks guys! Yeah, the seller, Steve, and I were in contact and had a few things arranged. Unfortunately the family emergency has taken precedence and I wont have the time to set up a new tank or go through the logistics of a transfer right now. So, this project is on hold indefinitely. Again...
