    Aquarium & Reptile Depot in Citrus Heights, a little east of Sacramento. Wife and I are in Sacramento every other month for bonsai supplies. There is a nice bonsai supplier in South Sac.

    Happy Wife

    is always a good thing. As visiting A&RD in Citrus Heights is not exactly a short drive to check out. But the wife won $400 in their 13th annual anniversary celebration raffle. Our 90 gallon is going to get some really nice corals here in month. Made the 5 hour round trip worth it :)

    Hi from Monterey

    Welcome, I am originally from Salinas, so know Monterey well. This group has been a great wealth of information ever since I got into Reefing a few months ago.

    PIF: Hydra 26

    Free Hydra 26. It works great, but requires a controller to work remotely. I do not have a controller that will work with it. It powers on, and ramps up to full power. I got it from a member during the year end BBQ, and figure I shall pass it on! If you have a controller, this is great...

    Angel Fish and Corals

    My wife discovered Biota's website last night and was looking through all their angel fish, and their Mandarins. We have seen flame angels at Petco, AC, Neptune, etc. Then her mind was blown at all the different angels on Biota's website, but the down side is reef safe with caution. Also someone...

    Qckslvr and Mrs 90 gallon Oceanic tank build

    I threw a small party last night.... There is always a sense of success when everything all of sudden clicks, and works. I placed 3/4" of acrylic under the skimmer makes a total height of 2.5" off the bottom of the tank. The outlet is 1/4" below the water line. And the Reef Octopus is now...

Wife picked a few wrasses, a gobby and shrimp, and a pair of clownfish. Pics at a later date! We also picked up another Orbit 2 seeing as they have a discount on...

    Vintage HiFi enthusiasts?

    I forgot to mention here at my work I have a pair of 150 watt Peavey DS1502s. Inside are the original 15" Black Widow subs, and rebuilt genuine Peavey 22XT tweeters, with the original crossovers. They are unfortunately fed by a 400 watt Amazon amp that is plugged into my PC. Everyday I search CL...

    Qckslvr and Mrs 90 gallon Oceanic tank build

    I was wondering that, because the skimmer in my 30 has an air valve. Yet the bigger skimmer did not. I did do some research and my particular model likes 8-9" of water depth. Currently my sump is 10.5" deep. So I think a 2" stand will put it in range.... And if I can't get it to tune I will try...

    Qckslvr and Mrs 90 gallon Oceanic tank build

    So I fired up the skimmer for the first time yesterday, and I think I need to raise it up. No matter how much I played with the flow valve it would fill the cup. Playing with the flow valve just determined how fast it filled the cup :( What is the best way? I think an inch would work. I was...

    Qckslvr and Mrs 90 gallon Oceanic tank build

    Checking the diffuser to see if I want to run the tank with or without. Also got my water tested, and the tank is clear to go! 2 weeks in, started with Dr Tim’s and live rock. We started the 30 with a pair of clowns. This time I think it will be a school of Banggai.

    210 gallon Dream tank

    I picked up one of the Avid frag racks at the coral show a couple weeks ago. So far we love it! and our hawkfish loves it too. It's his new perch.

    Ammonia

    Ammonia on my 30 is 0. Nitrates and Phosphates are a little high, I am starting to win that battle. We added a dragonette to the tank over a month ago, along with copepods for it to eat. And we may have been a little overzealous with the Phytofeast. Also I found out my wife was WAY overfeeding...
