Dear Bar, I’m moving out of the Bay to Paris (France) with my husband (who is French) on August 1st. I wanted to thank the club for the support and connection for the last two years I enjoyed meeting so many of you at the frat swap and Cal Academy visit. This was my first tank as an adult and...

My acan (micromussa) has been retracted for a few days (a little more than a week). Colors still seem seem just as vibrant as ever, but it is super retracted. (see pics below), in a way I've never seen before (at least for not more than a day). I maintain parameters with esv ionic, dosing 1ml...

My royal gramma has become too territorial for my 10 gallon tank. Free to a good home - pick up ASAP (I am home all day tomorrow - Monday). I have him in a container in the tank. I also have a bleached tropic thunder monti frag (dark red base with green polyps). It fell behind the rocks and...

Hi Bar I’m wondering if anyone has a fish-less frag tank (or really any tank without fish that can grow coral) that I can rent space in for after the frag swap. I’d like to participate in the swap but I don’t want to risk introducing a fish disease into my nano tank after the agony of...

Hi BAR. I finally got around to starting a tank journal for the Nuvo 10 I got used in August 2018 from Craigslist. Here's a photo of it from when I first got it: The tank is running a kessil a80 at around 75%, chemipure blue nano, filter floss and has an ATO. I do a 2-3 gallon water change...

Hi BAR I am wondering if anyone living in SF would be able to lend me a 10 gallon qt set up (tank, cover,filter - I have a heater). I live in SF (mission). Happy to repay the favor in some way (buying some grabs from you or something else). The reason I ask is that I have a possum wrasse that...

Hi everyone! After being away for the summer I found a great deal on a 10 gallon nuvo with basically everything you could want on craigslist the weekend I returned and so now I have a tank again after almost 20 years (since high school!). The set up came up rock, sand, 6 corals, a cleaner shrimp...

Hi BARs! As I continue to plan out my tank I’m wondering if people have advice about where I can find “real” live rock in the Bay Area. What I mean by real is something like Tampa bay aquatics or gulf live rock - rock that is shipped wet and is full of life. Are there any shops around the bay...

Hi BARs! I’m thinking of starting a small tank (20 gallons or less) in my small apartment in the Mission! I had a 120g Fowlr as a high schooler (around 17 years ago!). If I do start a new tank I’d love to become a member of BARs! My 2 questions: I will have to be gone for two 4-week periods...
