how come? I would like to add a couple blue spotted jawfish.

Here's the progress, the plaster is now off the wall, and getting ready to tear down the support wall for the tank :)

Gonna also plumb in a dump run, so I can drain out through the floor. And also use that for water changes. That will make things nice, running water under the tank and drains :)

Been offline a week or so, had to tear up the current computer room floor, which is becoming the aquarium viewing room. tore out the termite damage, and laid in a new sub floor. Now gonna set two support columns for the tank. And next week a structural engineer is coming to tear down the support...

Ripped the entire tank room floor out today. Exposed supports and sand floor that hasn't seen light in 100 years. Tomorrow gonna level the floor and hopefully get to adding concrete support columns. The insulate the floor and drop in the sub floor. Then the next couple weeks have a framed and...

I'll pay the shipping :)

Thats I wish I could make the swap.. but one small thing :) I'm now in Florida, and so is the house ;) But I am still posting away b/c this is the best reefers group I've ever belonged too! But look on the bright side, I can help you guys get Florida fish and contacts over here. And lord knows...

With the fuge etc, it is looking like a total system water volume of around 225 gallons. The tank is about 180, plus a 90 gallon fuge half full.

Ok this tank build looks like it'll take a year! But thats because we have to remodel the entire downstairs. So because we can we're even designing the placement location of the tank. With the current design you'll see the tank from 3 rooms and you'll see 3 side of the tank. The plumbing will be...

Where's the best place online to buy black hawaiian sand? Or any black volcanic sand, but I'll need 200lbs so don't want to pay for live sand. What do you guys think? SeaChem Gray Coast or Tahitian moon Black sand (Magnetic?)

Still very early in the stages of things, but here's the first pict. Picked up this curing live rock from a local guy on craigslist for $2 per pound. The LFS wants 6-7$ per pound here! So hopefully I just saved $400-$500. Paid $200 for 100lbs of this rock. Looks pretty clean to me, have it set...

is anyone in the group running one? Curios to know if they saw a benefit from it.

if it works, seems like it could be a safe way to vodka dose

Here's the reactors they are selling out here. http://www.aquariumspecialty.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=37_829&osCsid=8fd10e1bcf94b81101b3d220daa0ab70

http://reefbuilders.com/2009/10/19/solid-vodka-dosing-from-np-biopellets-could-usher-in-a-new-era-of-oligotrophic-reefing/ What do you guys think about these new reactors running this media? It seems to be the rage here in FL at the moment, I I never heard of this stuff before.

now I can finally get a blue spotted jawfish without worrying that it'll jump out!

Hi guys long time no see. Well I moved to Florida and am starting to set up my new tank here. Slowly but surely I'll have Erin FedEx out some of my corals once the new system in in place. I ordered my 3 sided starfire glass tank today. Put the heafty deposit down and it'll be finished in 3...

been adding alk daily to keep it higher than 7.5kh. And since then the plate coral is doing great again, all the light colored tissue that was starting to come off has stopped and is starting to go back to a normal color. I did have a random birdsnest branch die in one day so I cut the piece...

Thanks did that, hope the coral starts getting better, and my low alk problem goes away

Ok added more Alk & CA .. test in a bit to see where they are at.
