Jim, I feel your pain. Our corals in our 57g fall into two categories: one group looks fantastic, is growing and happy, and the other group looks awful. Unfortunately, we had our alk fall over the weekend when we were gone, and we added a few more corals to the "awful" category. Hang in...

Please post a price.

For those of you who are still on the fence. . . 1. I will be making mini beef wellingtons 2. I will be making brownies with home made whipped cream (Darren, those are for you) 3. I went shopping for toys for your kids. Bought Legos (3 sets!) a jewelry kit, and UNO to entertain them while you...

You know us. . . Chances are that we will still have people after 5pm, so swing on by if you have time! Robbinsville to point pleasant is about an hour. We would love to see you!

My coral banded left them alone. I have never had a 6 line.

+1 you should put the glass back on. If you do not, at best you will ruin the fixture, at worst, you may start a fire.

I would pull out the colonies and dip them with flatworm exit. If you have inverts in your tank, and you run flatworm exit through your system, it will likely kill them. if what you are seeing is a nudi, the flatworm exit should kill it. Zoa eating nudis are unlikely to be spread thoughout...

I think your mystery acro from Herbie may be Ora tricolor validia

Hi Mike, welcome to NJRC! We have our a T5 fixture over our 45g tank. Because the fixture has one power cord, we run actinics and day lights for 11 hours a day. In our 12g, which has power compacts, we do the same. I do think it is nice to have the lights come on and go off a bit more slowly...

I love having inverts in my tanks. That said, I have run 20g tanks for about 12 years now, and I don't know that adding more hermits would be the best idea. From my experience, if you add more hermits, you might not have enough food for them unless you are feeding very heavily, which will mean...

If you are not sure how to dose ammonia, i would suggest buying a bacterial culture before adding that fish. Try Dr. Tim's or biospira (sp?). If you use a fish to cycle your tank, the ammonia the fish generates will burn the fish's gills. Will the fish survive? Maybe, it depends on the fish...

Are you planning on adding bacteria before adding livestock? If you are not, I would allow the tank to run without the skimmer for a while so that the bacteria that came in on your live rock has a food source and can multiply. I would also add something to kick start the cycle, like a piece...

I am sorry to hear that things did not go well last night. There are times when I hate the way our legal system works.

The ticket should have citations along the lines of "N.J.S.A." then with a series of numbers, along with the alleged violation. That is a citation to the new jersey statutes, annotated. You can pull the statute here...

How long have you had the fish in QT? Did you ask the seller to feed it before you brought it home? Did it eat at the store? Are you using any medications in the QT tank? If it was eating at the store, the first thing I would do is try to feed it what it ate at the store. If that doesn't...

I kept a blue spotted Toby puffer in a species specific nano for three years (don't judge it was in the 90s and I didn't know any better at the time). My litte guy ate just mysis, brine, and flake, but he was in a species specific tank because he beat the heck out of my other fish. . . One of...

The title says it all - approximately 5 lbs of sand, currently live, available for free to the first person who can come and get it. We are in point pleasant, nj, 08742. Send Mike (mnat) or me a pm if you would like some or all of the sand.

Terri. . . We said kids. . . No where in there did we mention Anthony. (Sigh) but I guess if you have already told him, its o.k.
