    Can k1 completely replace LR?

    When the time comes for the 240/300, the plan is to have artificial coral or skeletons in there. No or incredibly limited rock will be involved, and I have not decided about what to do with having sand or not. I currently plan on having a skimmer, fuge, and a 40br converted to a k1 reactor...

    Enforcing Marketplace Rules

    So, we've said it a million times that if rules were followed, then half of CR drama would disappear, but I have yet to see any mods enforce those rules. I am not trying to pick a fight, but trying to save a dozen from being created. If we could start keeping people honest about the rules...

    Back from my cruise! Some snorkeling pictures

    Got back last night and had a great time. The snorkeling was at Nassau, where I first snorkeled 14 years ago and what got me into salt tanks, and it has greatly improved. On the downside, it was rainy and windy, so not much sun to really bring out the colors. We had a mask with a built in...

    Yogo's wife's jelly tank

    So, starting soon, I'll be putting together a hex tank (thanks Jayjigga!) and converting it for jellyfish use. I know the bulk of jellyfish tanks are perfectly round, but with a canister filter and some glass beads on the bottom, as well as some smoothed out siliconing on the edges, this has...

    DIY Fluidized Sand Bed from 10 gallon tank?

    I've heard of people doing this, but does anyone have a diagram of how this works? Or how it's plumbed into a standard system? I'd love to not have sand in the fuge and just use a 10 gallon tank filled with sand, or maybe a bucket or something. That way I get a DSB affect but without the...

    Sponsor's hours listed on sticky

    At least every day someone asks the hours of sponsor or LFS shops. Especially for sponsors I think we need to create a sticky in their forums with their normal hours listed. I think it would save a lot of time.

    Yogo's Biggest Build EVER!

    Ok, I don't have a tank to tinker with, and per an agreement with my parents who are helping us a TON with the new house (my mother has ALWAYS hated my saltwater tanks for moneypit reasons) I promised her I wouldn't set up the new tank until the spring. So, here's my current build. It's...
