    ACC

    I have a number of flower anems, 3 I purchased from ACC, but, last time I went in for a sale on them I had the same thing happen (may have been the same type sale). The nice lookers were $60+. I left without anything and purchased 3 Ultras elsewhere (at $75 for the 3). Same sometimes happens...

    DIY ATO accessories (float mount & fill tube)

    Was looking to pick up a mount and u-bend tube for a Frankenstein ATO I'm putting together. Saw the prices and almost choked - $25+ for an ATO float mount?! So, plastic lid and scissors led to... Add a lighter and a bit more scissor work (measure twice on the height)... and then add a...

    Aquascaping coral in my BC 32G

    Obvious considerations are amount of rock and visible sandbed. Arranging for flow around tank is important as well, flow keeps algae at bay and makes certain corals very happy while others, like shrooms and zoas, arent impressed with it. My 25 is crammed full of rock, so flow isn’t great, but I...

    Lots of stuff, crazy prices

    Yep. Its a generic food that incorporates everything from fish poo to dead phytoplankton and algae. Its designed to rev up filter feeders, anems, sps, etc. Not a great all around food, but an excellent supplemental.

Met Bernie, who knows some of the club members from a few years back. He's moving a big shop and has tons of stuff in storage in his basement. I picked up 2 ATOs (new...

    Amazon.com : Aquatic Life 115 Mini Internal Protein Skimmer/Filter, 30-Gallon : Aquarium Filters : Pet Supplies Bought this to put in an IM tank, knew it was about 5mm too big but planned to modify. Ends up I can't modify it, there's no way to shave off a few mils where I need to. Figured I'd...

    Algae problem

    Sand sifter goby, maybe combine with a pistol shrimp (keeping in mind it will dig the Marianas trench daily). Nassarius ('zombie') snails are excellent as well. Avoid the sand sifting stars as they will eat out the food supply and starve. Also, remember the cyano is self limiting and will...

    Easy Frags

    Looks like you got some Xenia. Clearing space in my 10g pest tank today. I have: 1. Two frags of GSP (pest) 2. A large rock of yellow zoa polyps (bout 100 heads) that I adopted from Other-mark (Madreefer). They're blocking my xenia from spreading, so they gotta go. (pest) 3. A 'Mystery Paly...
