    Did you feel that?

    Epicenter 1 mile east of Hercules, per KGO. 3.5, not enough to topple down Panzer's tank. :lol:

    Toadstools eat Phytofeast?

    I've dosed ~4 times since I got some live Phyto at the last BAR meeting. I noticed that the polyps on the two sarcos that I've fragged for the next swap have taken a slightly greenish tint. I wonder if they're eating the phytoplankton? I know my tiny featherdusters and christmas tree rock...

    RO/DI modification.

    Check out the flow restrictor/flush kit combo. I got one of these last year and it really helped. http://www.buckeyefieldsupply.com/showproducts.asp?Sub=109&showspecials=109

    Who has the mini carpet anemone?

    I got 2 from the club group buy a year or so ago. I don't target feed them, but they manage to catch scraps from time to time. Now I've got around 10 scattered all over. I think it was JoeMack who organized the group buy. Where the heck is he? Jim

    Sad day yesterday.

    Dec. Meeting - Thank You BAR Members!

    Lemme try to trace the pedigree of that MH system: somehow it started with Gresham, he donated it to Seabay raffle, _______ won it, donated it to BAR raffle, two meetings ago nobody wanted it, it went back to the pool, now Mark's got it, he doesn't want it, .... Grandma Murphy's fruitcake, indeed.

    Why oh why did I purchase an unfinished stand?

    One thing I've done in the middle of winter years ago was to build a plastic sheet "tent" over the furniture in question and had a small space heater heat the area. I was able to stain and finish with polyurethane this way. No explosions, either, 'cuz I was really careful. Jim

    Dec. Meeting - Thank You BAR Members!

    Thanks to all who attended the December meeting. We had an interesting guest speaker, and a successful raffle. Many thanks to Reed Mariculture and Gresham for the generous donations. To-Arbitrate won the 1-year supply of Reed products! Guess who won the EuroReef Protein Skimmer? - - -...

    Interesting Article on Shipping

    Aiptasia is an anemone, right? I took out a small anemone covered rock and left it out of the water for at least 2 days. It was indoors, but out-out, not even moist. When I returned the rock into the tank, a feather duster promptly sprouted back out, and two aiptasias as well...

    Craigslist. They should rename it Flakeslist

    My entire setup was listed for $1200 on craigslist but I bought it for $450. It was inside a Rent-A-Space, the tank was standing on one end, and you couldn't tell the condition of the tank or stand. After ~ half a dozen trips to the rental space with prospects and suspects, the owner got worn...

    Friendly reminder to remember to replace RO/DI filters

    Just an idea, I jot down the replacement date on the cartridge with a sharpee.

    Interesting Article on Shipping

    A couple of years ago a BARe member did a snail group buy from Jeff's Exotic Place in LA. The snails were shipped in water, just like fish. We had lots of DOA, apparently some dead snails were included and fouled up the water, killing most in the same bag. I was at Crazzyreefer's when the...

    Wanna Buy a Pet Shoppe?

    The article did not mention the price. Maybe I'll stop by and ask the owner. Not that I'm interested in buying it ... afterall, I'm a businessman, not a masochist. :lol: Seriously, though, Vallejo is ripe for a good LFS/reef shop. Gizmo7718 - I sure hope it will just change ownerships and...

    Wanna Buy a Pet Shoppe?

    After 28 years in business, the Pet Shoppe is Vallejo is for sale! There's a void in this market for a good reef shop. New demographics look pretty good with the influx of new homeowners in the >$500,000 range. Here's a link to the newspaper article...

    :( Aquascene sold ?!?!

    Akacable broke the news to me Monday night. He said he heard it 2nd hand from a guy in Castro Valley who bought a frag there and was told that James no longer owns Aquascene. Akacable was befuddled, but I had no information to add.

    New Member Area/Introduce yourself thread

    Hi, I'm the other Jim, current BAR treasurer. I live in Vallejo, and have 2 tanks, a 180 mixed reef and a 42 Hex. I've bred tomato clown and banggai cardinals in the past. The 42 hex has a pair of banggais that seem to like each other; hopefully they'll have babies soon. Barry White...

    Possible frag swap with LMAS (Louisville KY) ?

    Fred, this is a great 1st move. I'm also thinking we can hook up with Las Vegas Valley Reefers. One of the movers of that club is Jeff (Opihi), former active member of BARE who moved to LV. Check out their forum - they're a pretty active club.
