    Sickly hammer

    I just bought a hammer with the hopes of re-habbing it. It has about 1" torn away from it's skeleton that still appears to have life. My question is should I rubber band it back to it's skeleton? Cut it off and glue or rubber band it to acrylic or a piece of rubble rock? If I leave this "piece"...

    My Petco Experience

    I have been visiting the Tacoma petco as well. And the fish guy there really does care about saltwater. He does a good job at stocking as well. Their tanks do get sick every once in a while but he will tell you when the fish aren't healthy. It is one of the only Petco's I'd recommend.

    Bulkhead Seals

    Question about time out for aggressive clown

    Are the clowns hosting in an anenome? They will defend them to the death. I don't think the clown will hurt your pod population.

    Anyone waxed their skimmer?

    I don't know if the slime coat would ever really build up with it being waxed. The slime coat slows down the bubbles from rising. That is the main reason for us cleaning our skimmers so often is to remove that slime coat. Maybe a scented wax- so when we do clean the skimmate will smell like...

    Anyone waxed their skimmer?

    Hello, I just got to thinking is wax bad for our tanks? If not, why not try to wax the inside of our skimmers and up the skimmer neck. It would release a lot of surface tension and let the bubbles come up much smoother? Am I all washed up or might this work? Maybe rain-X or something like...

    what led light

    Marlin, I'm no expert but I've done a bunch of reading on this subject and talked with Evil66 (nanotuners) I think you'd need 6 to 8 par38's for your tank. Here's a great forum to find info. http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/index.php?showforum=25

    My 234gal start

    Thanks Nata. My scape isn't as cool as yours but it turned out as good as I hoped it would without having to drill and/or glue any rocks together. It was really nice to be able to see your tanks and painted tank room today. Your rock is now happily stacked up against my overflow :-)
