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.
with research that's what i found to be the culprit as well.
thanks for the feedback. never seen them probably cause i'm going FALLOW at this time they are blooming especially overfeeding! ha
would a skimmer be necessary on a 15 with no LR?
i know every says have LR for natural filtration but i don't necessarily like the look and going for a coral graveyard look.
it looks clean and like the white. probably buy one piece of LR for holding my RBTA for a paired clown.
I would love to see why others have gotten into this hobby and their current PRIZED possession.
mine all died recently so i'm out of the contest already! ha! sorry still a N00B losing a lot of money learning along the way. and as mentioned some people are in it for shi*tzs and giggles and...

everyone ever try this way?
those who don't use the glass tops. isn't there a worry about condensation rising onto other locations? what are the alternatives? walls, ceiling (those with HUGE tanks) electrical outlets? I know my grandfather had that issues with the surge protector gaining salt deposit and causing a fire.
I like the setup. was looking to go with black sand but no LFS around me had the nature ocean bio activ live black beach sand. oh well. any new pics/updates?
quick question. i am about to build a 10g sump for my 15g. need a bit of assistance sorry for the n00b questions.

it's a pain to use RO when i buy the 5 gallon bucket refills. from a store. especially when doing a 15 gallon water change. spending that much on salt as is.
