You'll get the full time position sooner or later Rich. Once he move on to bigger and better things. At least you know they didn't hire a lifer. :D

When I used to have 175, I liked the way Coralife 10K looked. They were more like 14K-20K. I feel they were brighter than the Hami 14K. Patrick

Yah Yah..... I want to see saltwater in there with rocks before I start believing. I'm in line for the controller. LOL Patrick

Any day is good Jim, just give me a call. Lap, I was going to frag that but Jim said I should preserve it since it was show piece. I'll still have some left on the other rocks and that's what I'm afraid will spread out of control. Mike, I still have some montis I like to keep. lol

I have used kalk paste to kill zoanthind and mushroom before. Just do it over a period of time and keep an eye on your ph.

Thanks Tuberider. I will definately try the epoxy first. I would say they are boderline pest for me too. When they started to grow out, I was like WOW I didn't want to mess with a good thing. Then they got bigger and I was too lazy to keep trimming them. They started to get on other rocks...

As for the main colony which I'm hoping will go to Albany Aquarium. If not, I'll probably donate it to Steinhart. This is just a green encrusing monti so don't get your hopes up. It is a very nice green with excellent polyp extension. It's around 18x14 inches. I still have it on some other...

Those are all great idea but what if they already encrusted on area you didn't want them to be. Could you use kalk paste like you do with aptasia?

Heehee....I'm no expert on sps and you are welcome to get frags. I think when I setup this tank, I made the mistake of putting them on top and now it's shading alot of my other corals. Plus it's encrusting on to many of the rocks that I really like. They are like gsp.

I used to like them because they were the easiest sps to keep but they are taking over my tank. How do you guys stop it from growing and encrusintg on to rocks?

Yes I know the Carpenter are not expensive. I'm just talking about expensive wrasse in general.

I would agree with Iani. Also, the time you are checking the ph also effect your reading. When I used to manually dose, my ph will be 7.9 when lights are out and go back up to 8.1 to 8.2 when the lights are on. The reading will be lower if I don't dose the Alk part of the 2 parts when the...

Nice wrasses people. I'm reluctant to buy any expensive wrasse since I lost over $600 on those frequent flyers. Lapsan - The Sohal is actually pretty cool with other Tangs. I was able to put in a Blue and a Purple after him and he never bother them. He only fight with the Yellow but I think...

Could you make me one Northbay? I want to try that on my Asshole Tang......I mean Sohal Tang when he steals all the food from the corals. >:(

I could still use one. Let me know when you find it. The one I got from Norman was a little big for the tank. I was thinking of using the bigger one for my carbon but I want to talk to some reefer first.

Now that you brought up a crab. I did see one about 6 months back but I haven't seen him for a while. I guess I need to stake out at night.

The TDS in SF is really close to what we have in Alameda. Jim got me converted to using just treated tap water when he told me that the money I save in water could go to salt for the extra water changes you could do. I dread filling up the brute cans with RODI water because I know how much...

Those look like great candidates for your jumper, Eileen. My best one already made the leap courtesy of my Solar Wrasse. So you win this round.

Could my wrasse enter the event?

Oh, one more thing. I keep about 50-60 percent of the old water. I usually try to do that before I start moving anything inside the tank.
