I got an order from RC last week. I'm not sure if I'll ever be using them again. I will be the first to admit that the variety of "cleaner" livestock they carry is really varied, and that you won't find their variety anywhere else that I know of. I'll also admit that the livestock...
I got the sand out and got the tank on the floor. I don't believe how many pieces the stand broke into. Likewise, I'm also amazed that the 20G high O'Dell tank beneath the 65 survived intact. It is also 45 years old. They don't make tanks like O'Dell used to!
FWIW, here's a brief history...
I really dodged a bullet this afternoon. A had 45 year old angle iron stand self destruct on me. Rust will do that, in spite of several coats of Fletco Ferrothane I gave it when I bought it. It was holding an empty 65 Gallon tank, that is teetering at the mommment. The tank looks OK, but I...
When I'm looking for a nice anemome I look at
Pacific East Aquaculture (Anemone)
and at
Aqua Dreams (their store in in Mass, but they seem to move most of their anemones on eBay)
(Security Measure)
I like them both because they frequently have smaller sized anemones. Aqua Dreams has a...
I got one from NY Aquatic last year. I think my powder blue harassed to to death in a 90 observation tank. It was in hiding and probably would have done better if I'd gotten it into my DT faster. The only other place I've seen them locally is Absolutely Fish maybe once a year. I saw one at...
The Icy Finger of Death - looks like something for a Fox Mulder and Dana Scully episode...
Don't watch the video if Starfish getting instantly zapped by The Icy Finger of Death might turn your stomach...
I recollect that I'm east and yet pretty close to you, in Livingston 07039. I've also gotten in the habit of hitting UPS and FedEx hubs to pick up my animals vs. waiting six or seven more hours for a local truck delivery.
On QCC...
I'm interested in a $96 Deresa Clam, but I'm not able to order it (or pick it up locally) until the week of 3/31/24. Let me know of any interest in order splitting. I'm in the North end of NJ.
How long ago did you see these? Back on 12/2/23 I was out there and saw what I thought could have easily been a sacred Fiji Yellow Leather. They had four of them. I bought one on speculation for $80. I've been lucky so far and not put it under any blue lighting. It is now the same shape and...
I've had one RBTA in a cactus pot in my DT for some time now. It hasn't moved but It has split twice. Both times the split's foot has moved behind a rock 4 or 5 inches away. Here's a poor photo taken early in the tank's day:
The diameter of the original nem in now about 7.5". I can't...
