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.
Banner Display (sweet!) for NJAAS.
Table for kids to trace/draw a horseshoe crab, plus great factual info.
Bin with live horseshoe crab and starfish. Nice to have a touch area for the young reefers.

Horseshoe crab eggs. Interesting that the eggs are greenish/grey like this...
As the winter approached, I decided I could increase the length of lights on the T5s - to spur more growth on my SPS.
Results:
Tri-color validia (maybe purple bonsai) frags went into RTN. It was weird - the yellow polyps would still glow at night, but the purple completely recessed into white...
Anyone listen to Chuck Berry? For you young people - that would be a vinyl record.
Anyone want some phone numbers - names? from 1971? there was even a doctor's appointment card inside. Guess he/she missed that one! d'oh.
As some of you know i was away a few weeks ago on a brief business trip for 48 hrs. When I got back my copperband was nowhere to be found (not on floor or the overflows or sump, and no pets that would eat anything off the floor). I asked my wife if she noticed the anemone spitting anything out...

Article says he had kept the larger tortoise for over 20 years. Give the man kudos for keeping a pet so long.
Hey there - anyone using a frigidaire furnace/or central AC? Curious if anyone has any positive or nightmare stories.
looking to dump my really really old furnace/compressor (circa 1990) and going with a hi-eff /16 seer one.
Thanks!
I only had a brief two days in Austin to meet with a vendor, and met up with some family. But the pics below are almost all of the two LFS I briefly stopped in. I decided against fighting the TSA in terms of buying anything live.
First place: drop off my osmolator. TSA in Newark looked at my...
For me I will always remember it when it stood. the plaza has like 50 mph winds/gusts and the underground mall was huge. You could walk forever underneath there to avoid the wintry weather above.
On that date my wife (pregnant at the time) and I were living in NY but I was working in NJ. I was...
After an hour of fruitless printing I finally figured out I had to update the Ip address on the port on my pcs in order to "print" to the wireless printer again.
Not sure if anyone else has a wireless printer that isn't printing - but the reason (apparently) is that the loss of power forces a...
For a limited time only, now through November 23, visit America's Most Touchable Aquarium for just $15 a ticket, for adult or children's admission. There's not better time to visit Adventure Aquarium than this fall - get up close to penguins, seals, hippos, sharks, stingrays, sea turtles and...
Here's a big tank I just came across (it's been up since 2009 - so i'm just slow to view it I guess). Just think if we had to supply a backup generator for this beast!
Here's the (sketchit?) display tank (located in Thailand)
After the build:
sure would be nice to have that kind of...
This is the chaeto I harvested today.
It went to a member already (who I found out works at my office...crazy how small this world is eh?)
anyways - last month I mailed a similar gallon bag to a non-member. She paid all of $8 for it. I am an expensive shipper.
I should have another batch in...
I noticed our club has an acct. But it hasn't been used very much.
So am I just old and not understanding this. Is this the thing to get on or will this also pass like cabbage patch kids, the vhs and rotary phones?
Also when I search for NJRC on twitter - it appears to be some type of...
Last year it was nice for NJRC to do a beach clean up at Sandy Hook. It was scenic and beautiful. With summer here it's interesting how many more cars/people there are - although still not as crazy as say jenkinsons.
anyways - on the bay side of the park, the low tide recedes enough to find...
older pic (as in BEFORE macna atlantic city) before it developed the red/green markings on the face:
Caveats:
Loves to murder small snails.
Just recently jumped out of the tank and hit the floor hard. It is hanging in there by a thread in the sump. Frankly i'm not sure if he lives the night...
So I decided to get to the back and mow the yard down shorter as we do get rabbits in the back and I was thinking maybe a tick on a rabbit hops onto grass and then on to my kid.
Anyways - I'm mowing and I see something hop out of the way - tiny like a cricket you might get at the LFS. On closer...
So aside from my tick story - I have another story to share. I can't get over the tick - since that thing was on my daughter the entire time she did her ballet recital today!!! :P
Anyways - we're at the recital and the place is freezing and we just finished watching two performances (there are...
