It's pronunced "Cool Hwip." Did you like how I said that? "Cool Hwip?" ;D

I'll take it, my mbuna thank you.

POLYPGAMIST? LOL! Is that somebody who has multiple reef tanks that don't know each other? :D PS: Blu-Ray Player.

Re: Here's my 120 When it rains it pours. Jeez.

Ha hah, you are a genius. I was going to do something similar with one of those Chinese restaurant soup containers, you beat me to it. "Nothing that works is silly." -Robert A. Heinlein

Re: Brian's 225g Monstrosity! You definitely need to physically remove it. I think what fish can do is get all the little sprouts when it pops up where it was torn, etc. Also if a fish eats it it just becomes fish poop, where as harvesting exports nutrients from the system.

Re: Brian's 225g Monstrosity! I had both kinds. It's definitely Caulerpa sp., whatever the flavor ;).

Cool Thing in Jimroth's Big Ol' Tank I added an orange linckia starfish and a blood shrimp today. The serpent start shot out of his hidey hole to inspect the linckia, I was poised to intervene, I thought he was going to eat the new echinoderm, but he shot back to his hole after shaking hands...

Re: Brian's 225g Monstrosity! Wowsers. That's a lotta grape caulerpa. Maybe a herd of tangs, on rental. When I had my "toilet tank" going for around a year I would periodically pull a dozen or so stinky handfuls out. Unsatisfying. I think you have to get most of it manually and then get a a...

Thanks Bax, kinda confirms what I thought. Bad news, my Sequence Dart return pump is just screaming. They warned me and I didn't replace the seals. Now I need to buy a new one. Sequence also told me they will run fror a long time while making a racket, so I'm ordering through the group buy. It...

Paintman's loghouse is awesome! But I think he had help building it!

Undisclosed Location in Morris County. ;)

Wendy, I can say without reservation that that is the nicest tattoo I have seen in a very long while. Why, if I wasn't afraid of needles...I'd have it put on my wife!

It's a long section, so I don't want to type it. Basically he says it's a misconception and some species actually do better if kept singly. He says the misconception stems from the fact that anthias group on the reef in SHOALS of THOUSANDS of fish, with a social hierarchy. It's not like a SCHOOL...

Reef Fishes Vol 1, by Scott Michael, pp 543. http://www.amazon.com/Reef-Fishes-Scott-W-Michael/dp/1890087211/ref=pd_bbs_9?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1230596359&sr=8-9 It's a great book series, but I'm already up to 4 volumes and haven't gotten to the wrasses!

The theory that anthias need to be in a group is not considered to be true anymore. According to Scott Michael, many do better singly. I have a M+F pair of Squarespot Anthias, which I love. The male beat up the other females which were smaller, I had to remove them. I feed my anthias 2-3 times...

Just not that special looking, IMHO. People...?

I think every reefer should own a wet/dry vac. It's been used a couple times this year. I second (or third) the float valve idea, along with an ASOV on the RO unit, it's a blessing, I never flood the garage anymore. Not that way, anyhow.

Nice, I like the clownfish!. Hey, I'm makin' one of those "Santa Crab" ornaments for next year!!

I love it!
