    Surprised no one is discussing the Lacey Act.

    “The threat to the responsible pet care community posed by amendments to the Lacey Act included in the COMPETES Act of 2021 (H.R.4521) is high

    Generator

    What's a decent and quiet generator that's easy to operate? Preferably not overly expensive. Global warming and CA fires and heat are only going to get worse. Time to prepare.

    Hive Mind Help

    A month ago while cleanig the tank -- rocks and sane, etc -- my Yellow Tang went into extreme distress. Not swimming, laying on her side, and distressed breathing. This lasted hours, but finally the next morning she seemed to have recovered. Since that time the tanks been cleaned normally, and...

    Sick Yellow Tang -- any thoughts?

    I took a lunch break after spending a couple hours cleaning the tank. Walked back into the room to see my yellow tang on the sand breathing fairly heavily. Eyes still follow me and she gets up every five minutes or so and rights herself before sinking back down. No obvious marks on her, no...

    FYI on Dino's

    I had a pretty virulent outbreak of Dino's about 4-5 months ago. I battled them over the next few months with Microbacter7, roughly every other day manual removal, higher flow, a 3 day blackout, less white light, etc. While all of this kept them under control they still came back every few days...

    CFM Early Access

    I'm curious if there's some requirement for vendors to be set-up on Friday in time for this. Otherwise, it seems to me, that you'd be paying $24.00 with a pretty good shot half the vendors aren't even going to show up to set-up till Saturday morning.

    I am so tired....

    of refilling my ATO reservoir. It's ten gallons and has to be refilled every third day at least. I don't have room under the stand for anything bigger, but possibly could place a larger reservoir next to it. The problem is the tank is smack dab in the living room so anything I put next to the...

    These are for sale.....

    ...on a popular website for $300.00 (sale price today $189.00.) I figure that as a club we probably kill dozens of these each year, and if we group together we can sell and raise tons of money for the club. :)

    EB832 Question

    Anyone ever swapped an EB832 for a new EB832 (or swapped an EB8 in?) How much of a pain is it or can I just plug and play? Mine keeps tripping and turning off. I've removed almost everything plugged into it, and it's still doing it.

    Direct experiences with Regal Angels

    Tank is a mixed reef with clams. I know they can be hit or miss, but looking at some feedback from those that have kept them in a mixed reef. What size was yours, did behavior change as it got bigger, what did it nip at if any, etc. I have a sponge issue that is starting to spread and was...
