I know a lot of members shop at this store and it’s great. I like that every fish they have has a date posted that it was received so we can tell how long they have been in stock and acclimated. I’m always nervous getting a new arrival knowing how much stress fish can be under from shipping...
a couple of weeks ago I added an emerald crab to take care of some bubble algae...he's been a good citizen for the most part but when he's go near the toadstool it would close up. Lately I've noticed the toadstool is closed most of the time and has a yellow growth near its base, and this yellow...
I found a strange invert molt in the water column of my reef tank, pulled it out but there was no way to get a good picture of it.....it looked like a slightly larger mysis shrimp (I feed frozen mysis). Anyone familiar with a hitch-hiker that could be a similar size/shape that this could be...

Looking to build my reef; interested in any cool fairly beginner level corals to add. Located in Freehold, available weekends and some evenings, Monmouth/Middlesex/Ocean counties especially.
Anyone have a hang-on-back refugium available? I'm looking for a home for algae and a safe breeding ground for copepods so hopefully I can house a mandarin and some fish that require multiple feedings a day....
Also posted in another thread I'm looking for a hang on back protein skimmer. My...
