    HELP! Tank has a slow leak

    Thanks Philip. I was actually get a spare 20 gallon tank from my brother. Appreciate you reaching out to offer help though. Also, thanks for the advice on the stand. It definitely makes me nervous to have the over hang of the tank. The 2x4 idea is a good one.

    HELP! Tank has a slow leak

    I think one of my worst fears has come true. My 40g tank appears to have a slow leak. I don't have a stand for this tank so it sits on the ground. The room with the tank started smelling really musty and I discovered that it seems to be leaking and soaking the carpet. I've been meaning to set...

    Heater broke...what to do?

    Oh yeah. Carbon. Thanks for reminding me of that. And yes it's bizarre that they both crapped out at the same time. I have everything plugged into a GFCI outlet so hopefully that would protect against surges, etc.

    Heater broke...what to do?

    The water level was fine when I got home. They are both very old heaters so maybe it was just time?

    Heater broke...what to do?

    Looks like one or both of my heaters broke. Came home to a very strong, electric burning smell in my condo. One of the heaters (glass one) seemed to be smoking periodically while the other heater (non-glass) seemed to be bubbling periodically. My Apex shows a spike in amps and 2 degree spike in...

    [Feb 8, 2014] 2014 BAR Members Only Frag Swap (Hayward, CA)

    No problem! My pleasure to give back to the club which has been so generous to me in the past. And thanks Mike for taking the time to pick up the chalice and do all of the work to chop up the coral. If all of the frags don't get picked up by club members, maybe the club can sell them at future...

    [Feb 8, 2014] 2014 BAR Members Only Frag Swap (Hayward, CA)

    Would anyone be willing to swing by my place to pick up the MH chalice to hack-up and donate to the swap? I live in SF near AT&T Park.

    [Feb 8, 2014] 2014 BAR Members Only Frag Swap (Hayward, CA)

    I have two very large pieces of Miami Hurricane (probably 7" in diameter) that I would like to donate to both the club via the frag swap and maybe to the CA Academy of Sciences if they want one. Will someone have a bandsaw at the event to carve this baby up? I've been meaning to frag it and...

    Miami Hurricane chalice

    I have a good sized piece of this coral available to DBTC. It can be chopped up into multiple frags right now but I just don't have the time nor space in my tank to house the frags. The only problem is it is really browned out now and could really use some TLC. Same rules apply as above (except...

    Kinetic's ELOS 120

    Dang Art. Sad to see you take a break from the hobby but I totally understand. I had a custom built AGE tank that's been sitting empty on my living room floor for 1.5 yrs because I've been too busy. Was partly worried about the water weight in my condo so I may have to sell it and get a smaller...

    HELP! Light fixture is going down.

    Thanks everyone for offering to help out. I'm always amazed and appreciative of the helpful spirit of this club. I'm going to borrow Garvins fixture for the weekend.

    HELP! Light fixture is going down.

    Hey fellow BAR members, Does anyone have an extra light fixture that is just sitting around that I could borrow through the weekend? My light fixture is crapping out on me. I have an old Sunpod that's been going for about 4 years. The ballast is having issues and none of the fans are...

    DBTC Sunset Monti

    One of my alltime favorites. Lost mine a while back and would love to try another piece once my tank stabilizes.

    Emergency help please!

    Thanks again guys. This club is great. It looks like the large water changes have slowed the carnage. My anemone which looked really bad is starting to bubble up again. I hope this is a good sign considering the anemone is probably pretty sensitive.

    Emergency help please!

    Thanks for all the offers to help. Now I'm nervous about spreading anything bad into anyone's tank. I guess I'll just keep doing big water changes and worst case scenario, hopefully I can re-acquire some corals through old dbtc donations I made if I lose everything...

    Emergency help please!

    Yeah, I've been mixing a lot of salt water and doing water changes. Where are you located?

    Emergency help please!

    Been a while since I've been on the BAR forum mostly because I've been so busy. But something is seriously wrong with my tank and I believe it's crashing. I've already lost some prized colonies in the last day (including a big mummy eye colony, war coral colony, tubs alien eye chalice to name a...

    Great idea if you don't mind an amateur like me asking you a ton of questions!

    Pixors

    Absolutely stunning! The first pic of the Golden Gate Bridge is also very beautiful. Can I tag along with you someday to learn some tricks? I've been strapped for time to play around with my new camera but have dying to get out and get some practice in.

    Miami Hurricane chalice

    Enjoy the frag JAR! My other chalices hardly grow at all but this one has been a good grower for me.
