    tuxedo urchin is blending in

    I've noticed that they prefer eating coraline off the rocks than the glass/acrylic. Yes, they seem to prefer coraline over other kinds of algae. Best of luck, Roy

    tuxedo urchin is blending in

    Mine liked to carry around the thermometer. Once it carried around a snail. Best of luck, Roy

    How would you like to help set up a 20,000 Gallon Tank?

    Guys: Sorry I did not reply sooner. Since I did not receive any emails at racrumrine@yahoo.com and I did not receive notifications that anyone at BAR had replied to my threads (however, I have in the past), I was assuming you guys were just too busy to help out. Fortunately, I read Elite's...

    RO/DI. Need selection help

    Air Water Ice has great customer service and makes a quality product. I bought this model about 2.5 years ago. It came with a free TDS meter. http://www.airwaterice.com/c=wQLvE2LTzEYOUEND7WvczFZns/product/1TYPHOONIII/TYPHOON_III_AQUARIUM_RO_DI_75_or_100_GPD.html Amazingly, I have never had...

    Romberg Tiburon Center for Environmental Studies Invitation-Saturday, June 7th

    Darn. My neck of the woods and thanks to little league baseball playoff games, I can't make it. On another note, the Romberg center will be receiving a lot of equipment from the California Academy of Sciences. They are interested in setting up more cold water systems. If anyone is interested...

    Anyone here know about buying mobile home??

    Since they tend to go down in value and are next to impossible to move, you might be better off renting until you can afford your own place (condo or house). From Labor Day to Super Bowl Sunday, there are always great real estate bargins because the only people who tend to sell during that time...

    need to add more real estate to your tank?

    But, you could probably rotate the magnet to turn the coral to the light (like you would with a house plant). Best of luck, Roy

    My pics from Fiji

    Thanks for the helpful info. In researching our trip, we realized that the country is huge and it would take a lot of time to get from place to place if we wanted to see more than one island. Regards, Roy

    My pics from Fiji

    Nice pictures. Where in Fiji did you go? Where did you sleep? Which outfit did you dive with? Would you stay and the same place and dive with the same outfit again? We're planning a trip for when our Boys are older and can dive with us. Regards, Roy

    Boom and Bust

    Jim: I agree with you. It's amazing how so many people are always chasing the flavor of the month coral. Best of luck, Roy

    Who's got 6 foot long tanks? How do you get flow?

    Eileen: I'm not sure. The Ehiem is also the main return pump. I'm having an electrician come out in a few days. Perhaps he can help me figure out the consumption. Best of luck, Roy

    Who's got 6 foot long tanks? How do you get flow?

    1 inch Sea Swirl mounted in the middle hooked up to an Ehiem Pump. 4 Hagen (not Aqua Clear) 802 Power Heads. Mounted on the sides of each overflow. 1 Seio 1500. Just for the heck of it. I bought another Sea Swirl because I always wanted to set up 2 side by side. So far, I've never done it...

    True Percula Clown help - doesn't look like it's feeding

    If its eating, great. Don't worry about the cyclopeeze being small. I believe I've read that when they have studied the stomach contents of wild clowns, they are mostly filled with copepods. Best of luck, Roy

    True Percula Clown help - doesn't look like it's feeding

    It's common for newly caught wild clowns to not eat. I once lost one and it was so frustrating driving all over trying to give it every possible food and it still wouldn't eat! Fortunately, I never had it happen again (see below). It sounds like you didn't QT your fish. If you had the clowns...

    How to frag a sponge

    I've tried a couple of times and have never had a lot of success. On top of that, it seems like you have to duplicate the lighting and nutrients to get the same growth results in another tank. The next time I try, I'm going to put a rock next to an existing sponge and hope it will grow on the...

    180 bow front tank?

    Before I knew as much as I know now, I almost bought a 155 bowfront. The deal fell through thanks to Ebay. Now that I have a 180 (2 feet wide all the way across), I realize that having the extra width to work with all the way across is great. Additionally, if you want a nice canopy to hide MH...
