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.
I've usually had good luck with the Copperband, it's my favorite fish and I dote on it a little. Yet I have seen it on many people's non-no list and was recently told by an LFS employee in NJ that they stopped selling them, "because people can't keep them alive." Yet with yellow longnose...
Yes, the Xbox does the same trick, with some limitations (like 1,000 songs). Works great, sees the PC... But ahah! I have cleverly excluded all game consoles from the living room setup so the wife and I can actually use the TV occasionally... ::)
AV Geek Man, Help!
I am trying to find the best way to play my huge (legal) MP3 collection over my home theater receiver. I thought I was being clever and bought a DLNA-Compliant NAS Drive (Iomega) but that's only one piece of the puzzle. (although now I can look at all my digital photos on my...
Cool Critter!
I was at an LFS and they had this unusual pair -- a pink cucumber with a little crab "friend" (pest, helper, parasite?)
I took some pictures in the bag because I was sure I'd never see it once it crawled into the rocks, but actually it's been out in the open a lot. The crab hangs...
At least once I add some netting I can get one of those Solarensis wrasses I wanted. My last one, years back, became a brightly colored corpse on the carpet.
No sign of him at the morning feeding. I suspect he's laying low, like he did when I first got him. After all, it must be mind-blowing when you realize you're not really living on the reef...it's an artifical construct, made to contain you, and keep you happy and productive...it's THE MATRIX.
I was looking into my tank just as the lights went out, and I heard a *splish* and a wet *smack* -- my first jumper. My "yellow coris" wrasse hit the wall behind the tank and ended up on the floor, right in the middle out of reach. He was probably on the floor for 3 minutes while I tried to grab...
Thanks! The tank works out to be around 215G, I've got a 40 breeder as a sump on the back end.
That's a heck of a thing, ain't it? I don't. I'm trying to dose conservatively, so I don't have issues, but I know what you mean. When you see the effect potassium has, there's a real temptation to...
Jimroth's Big Ol' Coral Pix
Here's a few pics to document some of the process I've been making with my coral colors. It's a slow process, but at least it's progress!
Heres my new efflo. All that purple edging happened recently, plus the "fingers" growing out of the edge. Seems happy.
This...
Hey, how'd you get a picture? It looks (from the info) like they never put water in it. There's also some extra equipment like a 2500G water storage tank.
That sump or wet/dry looks tragically small, though!
