    Firefish is pregnant, anyone with experience??

    are we sure it was pregnant? without a pic we only can assume. Or it had some kind of bad swim bladder/gas issue.

    20,000gallon in home reef tank

    The name sounded familiar and this tank was started in 2006. he "dropped" off the boards for a while but i guess he is back. http://www.thereeftank.com/forums/f176/the-new-17-000-gallon-reefzilla-thread-90861.html. so it's a tank 5 years in the making. it's still incredibly impressive - but...

    this is a cool toy!!

    I saw these at Menlo Park Mall a few weeks back. I just laughed. I've seen the video before too - it was posted on Sports Illustrated (of all places). The club should get one and use it as a lure in front of the Frag swap. LOL.

    Hudson Valley Reef Keepers Event

    it's a 2 hr drive from central/edison/piscataway/southplainfield/metuchen nj. I think it's kinda funny though how the last post on that thread is from the "director of hVRK" and his name is Taz....so are you splitting time behind our back Taz??!??!!?! :D

    Just got fios

    Fios isn't available here. Just a note if you utilize an alarm service, unless you have a maintenance agreement - there will be a fee associated since the alarm box has to be re-routed from the old copper line (or cable) to this new fiber optic line. that stated if the terms were right I'd...

    RBTA hiding in dark

    +1. I got mine from a fellow reefer who has an 8 t5 bulbs set up (vs my 6 t5). The nem walked a little but found a spot smack in the middle of the tank. It does close up at night and opens up during the day. Give it a few days - watch it though to make sure it doesn't walk into your pumps...

    No sir.....I don't like it.

    I found another review and this is more food for thought: "The author believes that it is possible to save the planet while maintaining a high standard of living for the entire world's population, but only if specific measures are agreed to and implemented by all governments. His first—and...

    No sir.....I don't like it.

    This quote is interesting. "we risk having no reefs that resemble those of today in as little as 30 or 40 more years". we don't want a reef that resembles those of "today". Honestly - today's reef has already changed drastically and if you look at what CRF is doing in the carribean, you...

    No sir.....I don't like it.

    Guys - I don't think this discussion is helpful. Whether one believes in something (global warming) is irrelevant here. If I say I don't believe in the big bang science theory and believe santa claus does that make my opinion less? Please be reminded that politics and religion are not to be...

    What type of algae is this??

    various factors make for life in the reef to be very different than what we can imitate in our tanks. Example -The level of nitrates/nutrients that can be measured on the reef is extremely tiny compared to what is found in our glass boxes. There is no way for that type of explosive algae growth...

    Can't catch a break

    Nice to know my clown isn't part of that gang. :p So in the end - what is the overall condition of the tank? Is it now just inhabited by the cardinals and clownfish? Maybe you should just "let it be" as is for now before trying to add anything else.

    Calcium reactors vs Kalk Reactors ?

    Ahh my bad - I meant to say PH is driven down if the CO2 is not tuned correctly. And not Ozone - duh!....Man two wrong facts in one post. I should just retire from this thread and go into the corner.

    one of those clowns is the captive bred one i gave you? just for context the mother of this fish was definitely a bully but oddly enough she is mellow now that she has an anemone.
