I finally have some frags for the DBTC. I have been sitting on some growing them out. I got this chalice from dolphin pet village 1 yr ago and i have three frags ready to go for the DBTC. Normal rules apply. Mother Colony- 20K XM 150W The frags are a little less vibrant as I have been growing...

Hey Guys, I know Kinetic already offered a 1" Frag of Idaho Grape, But I want to offer a DBTCC. I actually got this as a frag about the size of my thumb nail at a BAR frag swap 2 years ago. Now I have 5 colony sized pieces so I thought I would start the first ever don't break the chain...

I just mix a bunch of kalk with about 5 gallons rodi. The crud settles to the bottom and then i dose with the dual float switch from floatswitches.net and an aqualifter.

I ordered the phoenix from reefgeek, nice and bright. It is more blue than my old XM 20K and it really makes the greens and blues pop. MW

Sweet! Thanks for the recommendations. I think I will check out Ocean Treasures today. -Mark

Its been a while since I've posted, (Grad school is getting crazy.) I'm in need of a new 150W DE MH bulb and I was looking on reefgeek.com but couldn't decide which brand (Ham. Phoenix or Ushio). Does anyone have an opinion? I am thinking of trying the 14K instead of the 20K I have now (XM...

I run my MH 3pm to 1am

Hey Bryan how did the move go? Mark aka Wakskat

Hey Guys, Thanks for the great time and thanks to everyone for showing their tanks. Its always fun to see other people's tanks and what equipment they are using. Thank you Arnold for setting this up and thanks Norm for the frags. Mark

Hey Arnold, I will carpool with you over to the Steinhart. What time do you want to leave? Also, I can bring anything to the potluck. What do you think we will need? Is the meat depertment covered? -Mark

I was able to move my meeting on Sat. so i will be able to show my tank. I'll try and post some pics tonight or tomorrow of some of the frags I may have available for trade as well as some DBTC frags. See you guys at the Steinhart aquarium. Mark

I just found out about something that may force me to bow out of this one unfortunately but I will keep you updated. I really want to check everyone's tanks out so I'll try hard to reschedule this conflict (Fiancee forgot to tell me about an appointment she has made for us :-P. -Mark

I would try to keep as much water as possible. i have moved my tank from Davis to Marin and then Marin to SF with no losses. Both times I was able to do it all at once keeping all of the old water except the last few gallons of gunk in the bottom of the sump. I moved everything as quickly as...

Hey Norm, That piece has been a slow grower for me but you are first in line for a frag. I think that my 150W 20K halide is not enough for fast growth. I may switch to a 14K bulb soon to get some better growth. I would prefer to do the tour earlier rather than later if at all possible. -Mark

Hey guys, Sorry I missed the frag swap. I really wanted to go but I had a recruitment weekend that I organized for my PhD program so I had to give a tour of the city and eat and drink with lots of cool people on UCSF's dime (very fun time actually). I have some frags of various things that some...

I can show my tank. I'm in the inner sunset on 10th Ave. I'd love to see behind the scences of the Steinhart. Mark
