Thanks...to be honest I have no idea. I bought a bunch of frags from Pac East a while ago and forgot the names they had listed. Maybe someone on here will know. I've never been big on the names....too hard to keep track of.
Iphone Pictures
I am amazed at the quality of the pictures that the iphone takes. The only editing I did to the pics is cropped them a little. All of these pieces are thriving in my frag tank that is being run with a HOB filter, 3 pieces of live rock, 2 part dosing and a 8 bulb AquaticLife T5...
This tank was being used as a water change tank on my system for the last year. It did not come reef ready but the end panel was drilled to allow the water to drain into my sump. There are no scratches on the glass and this would make a nice small peninsula build. Asking $85 firm and will meet...
Over the last two weeks I have done the following to my rock.....
*Dipped in muriatic acid
*Scrubbed, rinse and soak in RODI for 5 days
*Changed the water and soaked agin for 48hrs in a 50/50 vinegar/rodi bath
*Changed the water and started treating with Lanthanum Chloride on a daily basis...

+1 on this. I too recently had an issue with low due to taking for granted my refractometer was accurate and just neglected to calibrate. Needless to say I was wrong and sg was around 1.021. Now I calibrate everytime I test sg.
Thanks Jim. I have some really huge pieces and maybe what I will do is concentrate on the smaller ones and replace the big ones. Its such a difficult decision because I've already invested a lot of time, energy and money into this rock and hate to walk away from it now. Not to mention what it...
Jim....were you running gfo or a skimmer or anything to help with the export?
Time is becoming an issue as the hobby is falling out of favor with the wife and kids which is why I am leaning towards new rock. With that said, what kind of rock would you buy? I have used marco rock in the past...
Its been a while since my last update and unfortunately that last 5 months have been difficult for the tank. We made it thru Sandy with no problems and I actually discovered 4 new fish that were added to my system by my Bangai Cardinals. The night the hurricane hit we discovered 4 babies...
