Happy New Year!

Thanks, Jason. Ethan built a mesh cover for the tank. I will see if I can get Mike to post a new photo of the tank.

I tend to play with my rockwork about once every 3-6 months. With the big tank, I used epoxy, but this is the first time I have ever done that. I have a couple of suggestions. First, try to get any gunk off of the rock before you start, whether it is by spraying the rock with a baster or by...

I ran my 20G for years with no skimmer. I did not keep coral, just anems, bubble tip and sebae. If you have the room, you might want to try modifying a HOB filter to hold chemipure; i had great luck running my little tank with a HOB filter, carbon and filter floss. Our 12g does not have (and...

I am pleased to report that the fish in the basement have FINALLY moved into their new home, the display tank. On Christmas evening, we moved the nahaki's wrasse, the bells' flasher, the anthia, and the assessor basslet up to the display. We added in the last few pieces of branch rock (they...

We had to break this tank down on the eve of Sandy's arrival; from previous experience, we were worried that if we did not break the tank down, we would have trouble keeping it warm enough if/when we lost power. So, the day of Sandy, the Candy Basslet and the Magnificent Goby relocated to the...

Tank looks really nice, Jon!

I am glad you took the Gem Tang home, Sunny, she is lovely!

Bax, we may take that route if necessary. We can disconnect the frag system from the main tank, I will do that if I have to. We have a UV on the return, and as I said no acros in the display at all. I just don't want to risk parasites in the display. I am going to give the elos treatment...

Our tanks run cold, 75 degrees. I would look for other factors; when sandy hit, our tank was running at 64 and only about half of the sps browned out.

Bax, to say I was unhappy to see them does not do justice to the level of my anger. We have been battling for months now, using zeo flatworm stop. We are not losing coral, but we have not kicked the flatworms yet either (hence the fact that there are no acros in the ELOS tank right now)- all...

congratulations!

Glad to hear things are going better, Jim. We have red planet, but we also have AEF (we have been waging war for months now), so I can't offer you a piece, unfortunately.

I don't know how that happened, but it is good news. Edwin, let us know when you are ready and we'll cut you another cyphestra frag and stylo frag.

Georgous, Bax! I love the canopy, I love the pulls, and I love, love, love the tank!

Sounds pretty great to me :)

Thanks, Jason! It was a pleasure meeting you. I had a great time watching Alice with the kitties, and I am glad she liked her little Lion.

Thank, Brandon, it has been a long time coming. Sorry you weren't able to make it today!
