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.
Thanks to all involved.
Nice, small gathering, sponsors seemed to do well, and folks had a great time, including my crew.
One problem stood out. Though I bought $40 worth of raffle tickets, I didn't win anything. Who do I contact for a refund?
Just so happened to pop up on R2R today, affordable light comparisons...

Heya O, Welcome back!
Im running a 120 using a Coral Box 500 skimmer, its DC, quiet as a mouse, and its a BEAST, like it over the Reff Octos I used to swear by.

Circulation I'm running 2 of these, the 15 version...
Shifted them both over.
All looks good atm, we'll see what happens over the next week or two.
Edit: Dwarf Flame Angel, which has never had a problem with the initial clown, is now very aggressive towards all 3 clowns.
OK, let me begin with this...
:beatdeadhorse5:
Now we can move on.
Here's the scoop.
I have 2 small percs in my xenia and mantis shrimp tank.
The tank is not very exciting in that there's just xenia and a mantis shrimp, which occasionally makes an appearance to glare at me in malice.
I also...
I've got some stuff I keep thinking of selling and its just clogging some shelves. Nothing major, but small and useful - acrylic shelves, small airpumps, HOB filters, etc...
I'll post the stuff in the FTAGH section tomorrow afternoon and will bring to the meet for anyone that needs anything...
Thats quite a sales pitch.
May I suggest...
Re-creation of a classic, same lines and looks without a price tag to break the bank.
Capable of holding its own in any situation, a true survivor you needn't worry about.
Smart enough to identify, and interact with, owner in an aggressively playful...
Dave,I'm doing just that, dissolving each tsp of kalk in 10-15ml of vinegar then adding to the topoff container. This simple drip system seems to be working well enough, though I have to keep adjusting every night to keep drops at one every 4-5 seconds. May just hook the container to a...
Cool deal, thanks guys (and thanks for the offer Matt, truly appreciated, but don't hurt your frags on my account).
I'll slowly increase with manual 2 part dosing over next week or two then adjust drip to maintain.
Turf algae now under control (thanks to water changes, severe filtration, and Vibrant) and tonight I managed to remove most of the debris.
As many of you know I'm a zoa lover and, unfortunately, lost almost my entire zoa collection (rastas, sunnys, chaos, fruitloops, etc all gone) through...
FYI
Had a bad run of luck with the in and out of hospital over past 6 weeks and tank becam OVERRUN with turf algae.
Corals were being chocked out and the stuff was EVERYWHERE.
Was debating on breaking down as I was dreading any drawn out battle and don't have the will or energy at this point...
Heya D!
I'll grab some nightsky, rastas, and duncans, plus a few interesting sticks of your call.
If you're heading to the Jackson meet I can pick up there, otherwise I can take a ride down your way on Saturday (and continue to try to convince myself I need a house down there).
Drop me a text...
Media should be in high flow area but doesn't have to be in the highest flow area.
Anywhere in the sump should be fine.
Your cups should only have floss in them.
I run a 110 and have 3 cups filled with floss.
I change the floss every 3 days or so, if I do a lot of scraping or rock blowing, I may...
I drop my media bag in the sump itself.
If you put it in the cup its going to restrict flow.
Keep floss only in the cup, change it every 3 days or so and you'll be golden.
Edit: Do you have a sponge at the bottom of it as well? THat, combined with a media bag will kill any flow.
