A couple months back I planned a trip to the Bay Area to pickup my 57g Illuminata from Robert at Neptune Aquatics who was nice enough to do everything over the phone. With the new tank in hand, built a stand slightly larger than the footprint of the tank to house the sump plus top off bucket...

Does anyone have experience with this skimmer ? I am a big fan of the Aqua C skimmers and wanted to know how the Bubble would compare to it.

I am running the Tunze nano skimmer 9002 on an aquapod 24 gallon. I have done no mods to the skimmer. The skimmer gets a good bath every couple of months. It has been running good for almost almost a year now and recently, every once in a while the skimmer goes crazy and collects cups full of...

I have noticed lately that my cleaner shrimp has been picking at my Bird of Paradise frag and no others. The polyps on the BOP are never extended anymore. Could this be ?

It is great to be back, been well over a year since my move and departure from this great hobby. This time around I am keeping it simple and using most of the equipment I have hung onto after the move. 24 gallon Aquapod 70w HQI Sunpod w Blue & White LED Tunze Nano Skimmer Koralia...

I have broken off a nice size piece of this Green Monti that forms pillars, with light purple edges. Piece was originally acquired from yourreef.com last year at the Bay Area Coral Conference. Grows pretty fast. Rules: Must be able to contribute 2 pieces to DBTC prior to selling or...

Hair algae seemed to have bloomed since my light upgrade from 4x54w to 6x54w T5s. I have done my scheduled water changes and all levels are fine. So I was thinking of getting a sea hare to help clean up my rocks. What is everyone's experience with them any warnings about them ? Do you think a...

:'( Sad day for me. I came home and found my bluespotted jawfish dried up on the floor. He must have jumped at just the right angle to land himself out to dry. He was my first fish when I started my 75.

Well the "thinking of an upgrade" has now become more real. This may be a slow moving thread, but at least there is a hole in our new family room wall :D Current tank 75g mixed reef - upstairs in kitchen will be upgraded and relocated downstairs to the family room. Planning for 48"Lx36"Wx24"H...

Possibly upgrading to an Oceanic Tech Tank by years end. Looking at the 120g 4x2x2, would need stand as well. Anyone know where I can go to take a look at one in person in SF, does not have to be the same size, just want to see the tank in person.

I have 1 loose mushroom for DBTC. Originally purchased from Aquatic Collection. Must be current BAR member. Must contribute 1 to DBTC before trading or selling. Pickup in SF. Thanks. Photo by Aquatic Collection.

I have this huge piece of GSP about 3"x6" rock covered. Beginning of the week I saw my yellow tang nibbling on the patch which I thought he was getting algae off or something. The last couple of days the nibbling is still going on. I think he ate all the polyps off and now I am left with a...

I was thinking of making one of those nifty window fly screen, net covers for the top of the tank to prevent my crazy jawfish from leaping out. Currently have acrylic lids, but want something more open. I know I have read a thread somewhere, but forgive me, I don't remember who or where. ...

Free to BAR member. Must pickup by tonight. I have caught my Carpenter Wrasse out of my reef and still waiting for the trap to get the Solarensis Wrasse. Both fish have been in my tank since Jan 2008. Let me know.
