This is the third clown I've tried to get to host this RBTA....if this one didn't host, both the clown and the nem were outta here! Success!!!!! :yippee:

First I've learned of this awesome looking coral! Really different green from all the other greens in my tank with a really nice purple/blue polyp pop under the blues! Looking forward to seeing how it grows :megaman:

OMG, my flame nem split 6mo ago and to avoid it stinging stuff I half of it to my dungeon QT (no maintenance, just top off 1/mo and chaeto in tank)....there are now 3 in the dungeon. And this week the one in my DT split on Sunday and again on Tuesday!!! There are now 3 in my DT...

Not sure what its saying about the maturity of my tank, but these days I no longer get green algae on my acrylic tank walls...I get coralline! Which means my old mag float doesn't do diddlysquat to it! I've resorted to using old credit cards or plastic hotel keys to scrape it off. It's now a...

http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/wild/destination-wild/episodes/palau-pacific-paradise/ So many amazing things are shown! Hard to pick a best....for me its between the school of a couple hundred moorish idols and the acro color combos I'd not seen before!

While on a business trip in Taiwan I visited a LFS in Taichung that had some corals in stock I'd never seen before! Pardon the poor iPhone pic, it's color is not the same as what my eyes witnessed. This coral was by far the brightest (fluorescent) electric gold I've ever seen....not even a bit...

Boarding for Taiwan this morning and hoping my C.Johnsoni is alive when I return [emoji16] The Candy hog(B.Opercularis) has become hostile to him...and he has been hiding in the rocks...not eating[emoji15] I used a turkey baster to blow some pellets down in where he's hiding...saw him chop...

I stood up a 20L when I was expecting to QT some fish and added some live rock for bacteria and hiding places... Then I picked up a pricey zoa frag that had aptasia on it and so I removed it immediately from DT, scraped off the aptasia and then put it in the QT to see if the aptasia would come...

Compatible next to each other? If not, who kills who?

I was in California last week and I received a "Below 75deg" low temp alarm from the Apex :eek1: I called the "tank sitter" and had them put the heater from the salt mixing station in the sump, but it didn't make a difference...the temp was 72 and dropping!!!! :puke: But wait, the logs and...

Oct 1st 2014 my P04 was .05, but I was running a cup and a half of GFO...and changing it monthly. So to try and reduce cost, I put an algae scrubber online October 1st. After 4wks, nothing was growing so I started removing GFO...half, then a week later half more...then a week later the rest...

My sump is in my basement and either I am having a heater failure or found the capacity limit of my 300w heater! My Apex controls my heater/temp to be between 78 & 79, and this morning it was 77.2 and dropping :eek1: I've known it would be prudent to run 2 heaters, but in the summer it seems...

Boo!!! Power outage during rivalry football games and stress testing of my tank! Good news is my ecotech battery backup ran the power heads for a couple of hours. Bad news is I clearly need something for backup heat during the winter! Good news, only down to 75.5deg before the power came...

I'm wondering if anyone has seen mathematical approaches to skimmer sizing... You regularly hear "it is good to oversize a skimmer", but oversizing too much can easily lead to poor performance, as there is not enough organics in the water for the skimmer to work properly (will either work very...

I rearranged some rock Friday before going camping with cub scouts, and when I came back today my RBTA had moved around and appears to have "zapped" a nice (and new to me) SPS piece :( It's bleached looking with no polyp extension... Any chance it survives?

So I've got this field of Armor of God zoas The majority are 'normal' with uniform skirts, but these new ones have 'glowing dots'! The colors are not 100% because if blue LEDs, and I used a filter to try and get the colors more representative. Doesn't change showing the different skirts...

This morning I found my favorite fish on top of the tank :disgust::disgust::disgust: He had never shown any jumping tendencies (like some of my others) but Terelabrus are wrasses and last night there were 4 jumping/screaming kids playing Wii in that room...and there was a 1/2" gap in the top...

If this happens again while we're on vacation it could be an expensive loss :( Is the only option 'whole house generator with automatic switch'? That would cost more than I have in the tank! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
