    Do You Ship/Take Paypal?

    Just wondering if you ship or take Paypal? Interested in some BTAs but not much time for LFS runs outside the city.

    Brightwell Pelletized Carbon

    Anyone using the stuff? I have an Amazon Prime account and it's eligible for Prime shipping. Seems like it's pretty comparable to BRS ROX and Brightwell is good stuff. Would love some personal experiences with it though.

    The Mods

    I just wanted to say that the current set of mods is doing a really nice job. I know this forum has had it's issues with moderation, but it seems like the team right now is very balanced. Very few threads getting locked and, very few posts getting deleted. Thanks for your hard work!

    OT: Magic Trackpad for Apple

    All I can say is GET IT. I just got one today and I like it so much better than using the wireless magic mouse. All of the touch control features are really nice. I will say I am used to them from using my Aluminum Macbook, iPad2, and iPhone though. Once you are used to them it makes using...

    This Local Clownfish Breeder Should be Ashamed of Themselves

    To replace my clown that died of Brook the LFS that I got him from gave me a pair because there was absolutely no way they could have sold the male. I don't know what local breeder sent this over to them but this fish should have been culled before it ever left the breeders facility. I'm...

    Petco on Halsted/Clark

    I was in there today for some dry goods (and admittedly a standard firefish thank God for a dedicated QT). I also saw Clams/Coral under a single PC bulb. Poor inverts.

    SkullV's Office Ecoxotic EcoPico Build

    In anticipation of eventually going FOWLR with my home tank I decided to set up a little reef at the office. So far everything was just ordered today but it should all be set up the week after the MCF party. The tank is an Ecoxotic EcoPico Reef. I swapped out two of the White/Blue EcoPico LED...

    Would it be possible to enable custom titles underneath the username? Just a little more customization!

    What Coral Likes EXTREMELY High Flow

    I'm talking MP40 6" from it pointing right at it. I have this one area in my rockscape where I can't keep anything because of the extremely high flow. Any ideas of what I can keep there?

    New Skimmer -- Bubble Magus NAC8

    Ordered a Bubble Magus NAC8 skimmer today. I REALLY like my NAC6 but I cracked the volute coming off the pump (figured out why the pump seemed "weak") and instead of buying a $60 pump I decided to just upgrade! Pretty excited to see how this will perform on my system with the bio-pellets. I'm...

    Sponsors?

    What's up with the sponsors on here? Is anyone on "Team CR" keeping up with them? A few of them have not signed on or posted in quite some time now.

    Ecotech Night Mode Settings

    The Night Mode with all of the Wireless Ecotech products is really cool. The Radion LEDs even have the ability to kick the vortechs into night mode when the light goes into its night cycle.

    SkullV's 75g FOWLR + Anemones -- Lots of Pics!

    Well since I'm back I figured I should show you all what I have been up to. This tank is still a baby at just over 4 months old. This is not nearly all the coral etc. in the tank but the daylights kicked off and I didn't want to deal with color adjustment. *DISCLAIMER* I am terrible with this...

    ChicagoReefs PAR Meter Rental Program Suggestions?

    Alright everyone, now that I am back I would like to start a "Rental" program for the Apogee PAR Meter I just purchased. I am not certain as to how to work the program as I would like it to be significantly more orderly and secure then the way that CMAS rents out their meter. My thoughts are...
