I'd be more than happy to help with clean up. I can also take a shift as door man / usher at some point during the day.

From rotifer.com, which matches what Randy said at the meeting: Vacation Mode Since rotifers need to be maintained/harvested every day, it can be a problem if you go out town for several days. Fortunately there is an easy way to put your rotifers in "vacation mode" (hibernation): Pour...

The 2 dottybacks are the only fish in my tank. I was hoping they would pair up and provide lots of plankton for the tank. I haven't seen much in the way of aggression while in my tank but I'm trying not to hover too much in case her seeing a big head through the glass raises her stress...

Fed-Ex is delivering my rotifer starter kit tomorrow. Though with my small tank I'm just planning on growing them in a 2 gallon bucket rather than a 5. Am I the only one giving this a try?

I picked up a pair of ORA Orchid Dottybacks on Saturday. One of the pair is doing really well. The rock lift in my tank makes the entire area under the rock one big cave, which he cruises around. He is very active, except he disappears at night somewhere I can't see him. The other one does...

I'm really looking forward to them. Robert at Neptune is supposed to be getting them in tomorrow so hopefully I'll have them tomorrow or Saturday. They are the last additions I'm planning for the tank so then it's just a matter of watching everything grow out.

Thank you for the complement. However, I can't take credit for the rock lift. I got the idea from the internets. :p If you look at the original post in this thread there's a link to where I picked up the idea. FWIW, so far I'm glad I did it. I'm still having problems getting decent...

Just a quick update to say that my frag is still doing well.

I can also bring some on Sat. if anyone wants some.

No worries. I can wait until next week. I call dibs on 2 orchid dottybacks though when they do come in. :)

Sweet! I'll see you this weekend then.

Figured I would update my thread since I hadn't done so in a long while. The "cleanliness" from the FTS back in November is gone. I'm currently battling both read turf algae and a cyano outbreak. I had been skimmerless for a long while but the cyano was bugging me so I finally added a...

Welcome. Hope to see you on Saturday.

I've been thinking the exact same things for the past several months. I just don't have any room for a larger tank in my current place though.

I don't know the layout of the back of the Bio Cubes but IME you should be careful with the Tunze 9002. I bought one for my 28g JBJ Nano Cube a while back after reading online that it would fit. They had since changed the mounting mechanism such that the only way it would fit would be to cut the...

Tank is looking really good. I'm envious of your anemones. I had planned on getting one for my tank but I've decide that there just isn't room unless I'm going to remove most of the corals I have. Also, your sunset monti looks great. Mine has been growing, but rather slowly.

Just curious, when are you thinking of going? My dive shop has a trip there planned for June which I'm thinking of going on.

I finally got around to contacting JBJ Lighting about the problem with my dawn / dusk lights. I got a response in only a couple of hours. They said the problem was that the dawn / dusk lights were originally not designed to be run for long periods, only for short times before and after the...

I have the NanoCube LED. The tank has only been up and running since July and I'm still waiting to see what the coral colors are going to be like long term. A few corals have colored up (Purple Fungia & an Acro frag which went from brown to mostly florescent green), a few have lost color...

Thank you for the frag Roberto. Would you add yourself to the chain so that I can add that I got a frag from you?
