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.
FYI.
Lots of discounts of 20%+ with free shipping (Tanks, lights, chems, etc)
Use code SAVING25 for an additional 25% off.
I usually don't post stuff like this but I just got some fantastic deals and saved about 40-50% overall...
Ha! Yep, the incinerators are the frag from you. I know the pink zips and the Eagles, did not know the gobstoppers. Cheers :)
Also have an infestation of Sunny D's and Utter Chaos that seem to want to take the tank over. May actually have to learn to frag at some point.
Sponge,
That was a bit of fun sarcasm aimed at another member who sells zoas.
Zoas (zoanthids) are a 'soft' coral that don't require adding additional chemicals to your tank and like the water a bit 'dirty'.
Zoas can go from quite cheap ($1-2 per head) to quite expensive ($100 per head)...
OK, hope this helps. Typing some general stuff here to cover bases, no insults intended. I'm assuming you haven't run a closed nano system previously. I run a load of nanos, though at the moment I only have 4 (40g, 40g, 10g, 7g).
The media rack (or basket) goes in the first chamber that the...
Welcome aboard!
First, love the stand, if you put a bar and a TV in there you're set.
Also love the set up, I'm surprised you're a first timer with the hobby as you're setting up a fantastic system.
Secondly...
If you want to get trashed you're in the wrong place.
You'll not see aggravation...
The pet release thing I understand.
Many years ago I raised ferrets and it required a special exotic animal license at the time for the same reason, they didn't want ferrets running amok mating with or killing local wildlife.
It almost seemed a mute point. My ferrets were not tagged or tracked...
Got to disagree with the Petco statement, at least here in Brick.
Think its a store by store assessment.
We've got a guy at the Petco here, Andrew, who is top notch. He runs quite a few tanks of his own (including seahorses), keeps their saltwater department stocked, super clean, and very well...
If anyone has any zoa frags they'd like to sell or trade let me know. I've got some good sized frags of red acro, can clip some superman monti, or offer a zoa trade of a purple body orange skirt frag(s).
Edit: And will be bringing at least 1/2 dozen bags of cheato loaded with pods for the taking.
Recently there was an internet post that a pair of axotols had a few dozen young. These young were offered for adoption but the post was removed from the forums, and rightly so, as owning the animal is illegal in the state the ad was posted in, as well as in many other states.
But here’s the...
Mmmm, tank was totally black for 84 hours.
Still got the algae in the same 2 places. It's less but still present.
Chemipure, manual clean, and 20% wc tomorrow.
Good thoughts, thanks.
The lighting is matched best visually, nmo par on hand but tried to account for depth (submerged mirrors and other half baked science ideas attempted).
When I dropped the frags in the 40g I went with an acclimatization placement which did no good.
Per carbon, the bag in...
