Alrighty Erin! (@Kensington Reefer) Stay on standby to catch that Achilles! Once my purple and blue look better, I'm going to be transferring them over! I'll keep you posted ^.^ The rest of the fish went over in the 210 today with the exception of the female mandarin. I stressed out my tangs...

Looks like asternia stars to me. My 90 is covered with them. I've heard mixed stuff on whether they are good or bad. If corals start to look bad, and you see them, take them out?

Skimmer probably gets most of it though :) next best thing, haha ^.^ Marc also recommends that the gph be between 300-500 gph to keep pellets from clumping, for the larger tanks. 200-300gph for smaller tanks, but he mentioned you want a nice vertex of pellets going so they work to their max...

Marc Levenson of Melevs reef suggests that you plumb in your effluent directly into your skimmer pump so that any dead or dying bacteria isn't released into the tank and settled in the sand bed for that reason. Here is the link he sent me on FB http://www.melevsreef.biz/node/196 and that's...

I'll totally take you up on that! Will you be at the meeting on the 8th? :D I want my tank to get nice and purple! ^.^ sump too, since I'm thinking that's where my urchin will go.. No worries everyone, I still plan on getting some shells still, so please pm me! :) Brandie

Yay! ^.^ I'll keep an eye out for a PM. At least the shipping will be used on more than just shells... LoL! Brandie

Thank you for the offer but the shells I'm getting from SWF are covered in coralline. That's why the shipping is expensive >.< the shells are not only homes for my hermits but will be my coralline seeds for the 210. :) And darnit! I should have posted sooner Jim! :( Merp. Oh well. If I have to...

Hey all, I'd like to place an order with both these places sometime next month possibly. I need shells from SWF and my jawfish from KPA. I'm not too worried about KPA shipping but with SWF, the shells are like, $15 and the shipping $40. Please, if you want to order anything when I do, PM me! I...

Haha thank you :) I swear by autofeeders ;) I have two eheims right now, but may look into the apex ones later on down the line. I keep ocean nutrition formulas one and two in my autofeeders and I have healthy, happy fish. I supplement with frozen every few days or so, depending on what I plan...

Hey all, As I am sitting here going back and forth between lighting options, I was wondering if there was anyone who had kessils on their display tanks and what they thought of their coraline growth. I have a Kessil on my big tank right now, just so there is some kind of light on it for the...

I have to say that I'm in love with my two spot bristletooth tang! I finally have up on a white tailed bristletooth tang and grabbed the two spot Matt has had in his fish system for almost a month. Since he was so tiny I out him in the 210; hoping that he'll put on some growth before I add my...

They are not the best pics, but they'll do :p Brandie

So a quick little update: added a handful of fish yesterday and another dose of Macrobacter7. Fish batch list has been followed but not to a tee; that's OK, it's more like a guidline anyways. I now have to save up for my jawfish and neon gobies then I can finally start taking out fish from the...

Haha, I didn't even have the patience to wait one whole week! :p hopefully it doesn't come back to bite me in the a$$ too bad...
