back on fathers day. umm, that's not MCF, well I guess they no longer have to worry about it on there... dumbasses, unless MSW (aka eyecandy) is banned as well....lol

Both are in genoa city, wi, and I am up in lake Geneva today and pass right thru there on the way home

Ugh, was reglueing a frag, got a ton of glue on my fingers, more than ever. Interestingly enough, googling an answer on how to remove it....tablespoon of salt, get it wet, pour onto hands and start rubbing, particularly on the glue....repeat as necessary, it really works.. Btw, busynight...

pretty cool calculator by echotech to determine what you need in terms of # of mp10, 40 or 60's http://ecotechmarine.com/calculator/ I did this for my 180 and the two MP40's are good for an SPS tank, preferably a 3rd would put me right in the sweetspot for SPS, which I eventually plan on getting.

It was on my doorstep at 8:46 this morning ( and it was shipped free via FedEx), wow

Came home and somehow my Solon wrasse I've had for months or over a year managed to jump out of my tank, I even have screens! Sheesh, add a wrasse, lose a wrasse :( Hopefully mcf has some of those nice blue sided wrasses left, maybe I'll look for a Scott's. RIP little buddy

I'm putting it in every other day, sometimes I miss a day, 6-7 pumps each time, I have a 180g + sump

Picked up a beautiful male whip-fin fairy wrasse from MCF yesterday, my established yellow fin fairy wrasse was giving it hell so I decided to go all lights out around 3pm for a few hours. Lights back on, no sign of the new guy, I figured in the darkness he found a good hiding spot. So today...

so I recently started using my PM Kalk reactor more regularly but via top off (versus a drip). Now that my SPS are growing out, my ALK tends to drop fast, even with 27G water changes every two weeks. I had some issues about a month ago (loss of color with some, 2 pr 3 corals bleached and...

Got a nice large frag from Mark last week (sorry Geno! :p), gonna move it tonight, so I assume high light, high flow area, right? :)

In have some gsp on a rock on my sand bed, but its creeping onto the sand, was gonna trim it back. Will it do ok in my sump lit by a couple cfl bulbs? Or is putting in the sump a bad idea?

Hi all, hoping I can get some solid advice, I've had a couple corals wither away on me over the last couple weeks, but couldn't figure out why. Decided to test my water today and my Ca was at 540 and my dKH at 6. What's the best way to fix (slowly of course). I have some Kent Super Buffer dKH...

I swear this happens every time I'm away from my tank for 3-5+ days...luckily it's not disaster, just annoyance. I can be around my tank for weeks at a time, no frags come loose from the rock work, or an equipment failure that is not disastrous. I'm gone for a week, I come back, a frag of...

Would prefer to just get one, do they have to be in groups?

Picked up a baby chevron tang and a nice male lubbock's wrasse from mcf last Friday, the wrasse was out day one, but disappeared. Tonight he made an appearance and is eating like a horse! Bonus!

So I figured it was time for my tank thread, I orginally got the go ahead to build my "dream' tank in wall when we purchased our new house back in 2006, the basment was infinished and we worked with a local company to build out my "man cave" complete with the in wall reef. I'd been keeping...

OK, thought I'd finally get around to posting a growth thread for my tank, which is primarily SPS, but I have some LPS, but I caught the bug for colored sticks last year and have gotten much better with my husbandry skills. All of my SPS I bought from MCF, as Ryan (and Sara) knows, I love to...

I just figured I'd sign up, since there are alot of familiar faces here! :thrasher:
