    Richmond wrasse

    That's awesome! I had something similar happen with a black leopard I added a couple weeks ago that disappeared and suddenly popped up swimming around like nothing happened. Always a good surprise!

    Cyano issues

    I've had moderate luck with Red Slime remover, but it seems to come back. No problems with tank crashing though. What I found that worked was buying a ton of nass snails. I threw about 150 in my 100gal and within a week or two there were no signs of cyano. Also added a good amount of...

    100gal Aggressive Softie Reef

    Yep, exactly. Stirated/Fuzzy Angler! He actually just ate my vermiculate leopard wrasse, so he's on the bad list right now... but my fault I guess for thinking he couldn't eat a fish bigger then himself... Ya, but after we started letting him outside he's less interested, lol. Cats...

    100gal Aggressive Softie Reef

    Update, got a new fish... He's a pretty cool Desjardini. Unfortunately his last owner recently passed away and his immaculate 180gal became too much upkeep for his wife. Very appreciated and respected member of the San Diego aquarist community, so it's a bit of an honor to adopt his...

    New Build - Merging Tanks

    I'm a bit curious on this as well. Soon I will be moving my 100gal from San Diego to San Jose and was reading here for tips. I as well was under the impression that reusing sand was a good way to quickly establish a tank. Mine has been mixed to a point I'm unhappy with and was going to sift it...

    Striated Anglerfish images (for Mr. Ugly)

    Nice! I'm a fan of mine, cool fish. How big is your leaf?

    fragging toxins?

    I have always heard to frag zoas in a separate container of tank water, or just in open air (my preferred method... lazy :D ). I have also talked to people who say if u get the zoo goo in an open wound it can be major problems (even rumored death in some cases), and know a guy who rubbed his...

    100gal Aggressive Softie Reef

    Hmm good to know. I just got a little black leaf whose friggin adorable but I was worried about the angler. Leaf is only about 2 inches nose to tail. He's in a separate 30gal at the moment, was debating when/if he would be safe to add. I'm confident the lion's safe, he's a bit bigger than the...

    I cant get my yuma to stick!

    I have tried the toothpick method and it works well if you can balance/wedge your pick into the right place. My preferred method for softies is to cut off the top of a 2-litre, make some holes in it for flow, remove the cap, and put it over the shroom wherever it needs to be. Just kinda dig it...

    Zoa ID - Couple Guesses?

    So I recently acquired a mini-colony of these things... My guesses are... Armor of God

    DurTBear's 20 gallon mixed reef tank

    I was just thinking how cool the frag racks were! Looking good, nice and crowded. I tend to use 2-litre bottles for my home projects, so eggcrate's super classy 8) Sounds like the 6-line had a harsh happening, sorry to hear that.

    Looking for the I-word... ;)

    oooh ohh i like this game... Here's my clue British Guy: Ah, the Dauntless is the power in these waters, true enough, but there’s no ship that can match the _______ for speed. Jack Sparrow: I’ve heard of one, supposed to be very fast, nigh un-catchable…the Black Pearl. Other...

    100gal Aggressive Softie Reef

    A Tank Journal? OK, I can start near the beginning. (sorry if some of the pics take a minute to load... read slowly!) This tank was a 100gal glass tank, but it started to leak a little bit in the back... Drained it down, resealed, still leaked, drained, re sealed... and it held...
