    I killed 2 years of SPS growth (tri-color validia)

    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...

    Replaced the furnace...found some really OLD stuff.

    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.

    My nem ate my copperband

    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...

    Trip to Austin, Texas (home of the LongHorns, and the Tunze repair site!)

    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...

    9-11-2001 A day to remember

    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...

    Wireless printers and power outages = unable to connect

    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...

    While we wait for this storm to come/pass...how about some inspiration? 965 DT

    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...

    Cheato

    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...

    Twitter...who does this?

    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...

    Sandy Hook (pics from the bay side)

    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...

    Is it normal to find frogs in your backyard?

    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...
