Nice fish! Your deckhand had a little trouble gaffing it. Looks like a ton of fun, what did you use for bait?

It's a Millipora. The pic doesn't really do it justice, it is more of a bright pink/green in person. Jess told me that it is a pretty slow grower, which is kind of unusual for a milli. Hopefully I can get this one growing at a good pace.

Oh it's on Dave! Let the grow-down begin!

Hey Dave, my frag came back. It's even starting to get color again.

Ya my photo skills need improving, there are a lot of colors in those acans that don't show up in my pictures.

Hey Guys, Picked up some stuff from Diablo Corals today and thought I would try and use my underwater camera to get some shots. Here is what I picked up. 3 new Acans

Maybe I used too small of a container (coolwhip containers). Would a 5 gallon bucket be better? What do you guys feed the copepods?

Hey Tal, I'll definately attend your talk next month. I'm thinking about trying to grow copepods to feed my fish and tried Tigger pods with phyto feast before, but crashed my culture. Overfeeding tends to be my downfall so my thought was that live phyto won't crash my culture if I happen to...

I can help with clean up.

Hey Dave, I saw the word "challenge" in the title and had to participate. See you at the meeting this weekend!

That's an understatement. How hot does that thing get Johnny? Halide hot or t5 hot?

With the given coverage, I'm not so sure that Plasma would be more watts. Plus, I personally would sacrifice watts for spectrum. Hey Johnny, Visalia is really far. You drive all the way up here for meetings?

Great looking tank Johnny! I'm really surprised that plasmas are not promoted more on the forums. Everyone is obsessed with LEDs, but the plasmas seem more promising because of the spectrum and ability to retain coral color. Any word on when they will mass market these for aquarium purposes?

I think I'm just going to order the chloramine test kit from the filter guys and a few of their chloramine removal blocks.

Hey Charlie, Thanks for the links. If I read the following correctly "Activated carbon will break the chloramine bond and remove the chlorine component leaving free ammonia (NH3+)." Sounds like even if the Carbon is doing its job, you would still get a positive ammonia reading. If...
