    GFO Tumble Rate

    I just setup my media reactor with separate GFO and Carbon "chambers" for the first time instead of having them mixed and held in place, non-tumbling. My question is, what is a good tumble rate for GFO? I have a few choices, or you can tell me "something in between". This is the minimal tumble...

    Catastrophe!

    Last night, after watching the election we were heading up to bed around 11:30 when my wife happened to glance in my tank. "What's wrong with your 6 line?" Uh oh I take a look and my wrasse has wedged himself in between a piece of egg crate and the front glass. Crap. I gently moved the egg...

    Happened to notice my anemone walking around

    This is one hour of video condensed down to just under 2 minutes. It turned out even better then I could have hoped for! http://youtu.be/QG5eBp_c5nY

    Please say it ain't so

    Is this the dreaded "blown out stomach" of a dead Sea Hare? I picked him up 3 days ago before the picnic and never really ate much of anything. I acclimated him for six hours because of what I've read and the longer then usual time in bag. Whether it's blown out stomach for not, he sure has...

    Pickle bucket!

    I brought the family to a relatively new restaurant in the area called Firehouse Subs. Besides amazingly good sandwiches, they also sell used 5 gallon pickle buckets with a lid for only 2 dollars! These are literally right out of the kitchen and not even cleaned. There's still pickle brine in...

    How to induce a BTA to split?

    So my lemon drop BTA is getting monstrously huge in my little Biocube again. Thankfully, he split before he got this big last time, but I'm not so lucky this time. Yes, I realize that I probably shouldn't be feeding it so much so it didn't grow so fast/big.... Besides that though, I'm...

    Anyone know what's up with ReefNinja?

    I've been trying to get ahold of Tom for months now and he's not responding to voicemails, texts, emails, Facebook PMs. Anyone know what's going on with him?

    We have a new reef lover in our house!!

    Picked him up from the West Suburban Humane Society a couple of days ago. We're leaning towards naming him Oliver, 'cause he's such a begger! Oliver - please sir i want some more - YouTube Whenever we're making food in the kitchen or sitting down for a meal, he's RIGHT THERE. Too funny.

    BTA hosting my... peppermint shrimp???

    I picked up a peppermint shrimp from Aqua Pros after I noticed some aptasia on the rock I got from the MACI coral cutting class. He's been doing a good job overnights, but what surprises me most is that every time I want to see the shrimp, all I have to do is look at my anemone! The anemone is...

    DaveWF's Bodacious Biocube

    Ok, let's be honest, the real reason I'm here is for the $100 contest... you know it and I'm honest about it ;) I picked up my 29 gallon Biocube almost exactly a year and a half ago off of CraigsList. When I got it, it was completely stock. Since purchasing I foolishly spent way too much...
