Mix them together? I re-scaped the other day and put these two together.

So, we picked this up from Mark at Reef City awhile back, and finally found the sweet spot. Definitely doesn't like a lot of light, nor the shade, so it's off center of the bulb and has been opening up nicely! The kids have been calling it hello kitty cyphastrea (we like and have a few...

http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2273310 This holds true for any fish that gets big. Not many can accommodate a fish this size. It grew from the size of a quarter, to that, in 7 years. Even though the tank it's in is big, it is still far too small for it to exhibit any...

First day out of a month long quarantine. He'll be the only "big" fish in the tank, later to be transferred into the ~1500 gallon reef I plan to build at the new house.

Found a new one today. I'm not sure what kind of worm this is. It's white with really no color, it looks different structurally compared to photos of bristle or fire worms. Any ideas? Bottom right, coming out of the rock. Doesn't mind light, just doesn't like to be watched and scurries off...

I have been running a smaller, enclosed scrubber powered by floodlight CFL bulbs with pretty good success. In one month, I was able to bring my phosphate level from .33 to ~.005 (sometimes 0, sometimes .01) on my Hannah checker with weekly 10% water changes while still feeding the tank twice a...

I bought an LED chip awhile back to try out on a 40b. Since then, the kids and I consolodated their tanks into one larger system for a few reasons. I've been having some heat issues since consolidating the 40b's because the new system has a canopy. I decided to wire up the LED set and see...

Does anyone here test for it? Seems like a pretty important parameter to control if you want stable pH.

I will keep this simple as possible. I am not a professional photographer, but I will try and explain things in a way that I have come to understand. Aperture - This controls light and depth of field. 1. Aperture and light control - Lenses are a barrel with a hole on each...

So, since I don't have much for corals yet, I've decided to use the ATS I made before setting up. I removed the skimmer, socks, gfo and carbon. I will update the thread as time goes by. This is my original design, but I've already got plans for a new one using 630nm, 660nm and a 455nm LED...

Moves at about the rate of a cruising snail... First time I've seen one..

After seeing all of the pests, and dealing with the ones we can't see, my kids have decided to remove the rock, go bare bottom and setup some egg crate. They both agree it's the coral they love, and could care less about the rock. Can I use the rock as a biofilter, in the sump without having...

Just some random shots. Some from a point and shoot, some from a t2i. Very rare land Zoanthid! The elusive canary pink tipped anemone! Goofy This is what my daughter has looked like since the invent of the Ipod. Charlotte's web. I swear he knew I was taking his picture. My...

My stay at Buddy Dive resort in Bonaire, Netherlands Antilles. Most of these photos are off Klein Bonaire's coast, some right off the back of the resort. The baitball was right off the back of the resort, during my last 15 minutes in the water before we left.. One of my favorite places in the...

I always assumed these were feather dusters. I have a few tight clusters around the tank.. When they are retracted, it almost looks like transparent, hollow blades of grass. Very spongy. I have been reading much about hitchhikers and pests and these seem similar to hydroids when I get a...

So, this frag has been in the tank for awhile. Color is great. It sends out sweepers at night. I normally target feed as well (with pumps on). Well, last night I was trying to coax out the sun coral (still unsuccessful), so I turned off the pumps and target fed everything. Pumps were off...

I've been into animals since the day I could read. I've owned everything from ants to alligators. I was heavy into breeding boa constrictor imperator morphs around 2004-2007. I was keeping over 150 boas at any given time. I produced my first Motley litter back in 2006 and ended up making...

Not sure what these are exactly. I have tried description in google search and come up with nothing. There are quite a few throughout the rock and the zoas don't seem to mind them. It's dead center in the photo, purplish with aqua stripe specks. Has a mouth in the middle.. There is...

I will do my best to describe, because there was no time for a photo. I went to check out the tank a couple hours after "lights out". I noticed a hairy something creep away into a crevice and disappear. It was neutral in color and moved seamlessly/fast. All I could really find about...

I'm not sure what you all pay for salt, but orders over $60 get 15% off and orders over $49 get free shipping. Two buckets of IO 160 gallon for $67 shipped. I thought that was pretty cheap!
