    South 'west' Jersey needs more LFS

    AO has the best selection of unique or harder to find fish that I have seen in my experience. They also have the smaller and more name brand frags of zoas palys and sps, with prices on the hobbyist side of frags. OGII has a very nice selection of sps and acan frags and great sales multiple...

    South 'west' Jersey needs more LFS

    I second this, they already have the best salt prices around which means I need to go there once a month anyway, and I've gotten most of my fresh and saltwater fish from them already, all we need now is a Good coral selection :)

    South 'west' Jersey needs more LFS

    Fact of the matter is that with dry goods, 97% of us would rather walk into a store, window shop, find what we want, then pull out our phones and order it online to save $5. Me included. And not just for fish stores that's for anything. So your dry goods have to be pretty low margin or your not...

    South 'west' Jersey needs more LFS

    As a retail store alone in south jersey your going to have to put a lot more effort into it than selling corals out of a store. To make it profitable enough to be worth it, you need to run a service business out of the store as well at the very least if not online sales as well. It can ve don't...

    Kids got the itch back...

    Fact of the matter is that cycling with decaying material (a shrimp) is probably your best, and most surefire option to cycle a tank. Especially if there is no other ldead matter to cause ammonia. While these miracle in a bottle things work. They are not guaranteed or they would stand by their...

    New sump and plumbing setup

    I've always done drain into skimmer/sock chamber furst, then fuge then return, with a bubble trap in between fuge and return. Makes sure no skimmer bubbles go back to the tank and my fuges have always done very well with the flow.

    What lights are you running and what's your experience with them?

    Ill be making a documented build thread for the light. Basically im going to run Aluminum U channel attached with C brackets where the endcaps would be located regularly. Just going to run a mixture of blues and whites probably on each, say 2 runs of 14 LEDS. Thinking 6 Royal Blue 4 Cool Blue...

    What lights are you running and what's your experience with them?

    Just trying to get a feel for the overall situation of the club and where everyone stands with their lighting. Personally I've had experience with halide, double and single ended, t5, and led both pre built and custom made. For the newest tank, I'm looking at doing a t5/led hybrid fixture...
