    The danger of false security - please advise

    Hello after a long absence, (sorry for the long sob story) It's been a while since I've posted with any issues - I thought that my tank was this veritable fortress of wonder and health. Sigh. That old tank addage "don't mess with a good thing" rings too true. So here's the deal... About 8...

    Filling the CO2 cannister

    Wow - so if anyone knows of a place that will fill, not swap - near or around Kirkland, I would appreciate it. I couldn't find a single welding place in Kirkland, Redmond nor Woodinville that did it. I ended up going with a Paintball place. Advice for future fills would be appreciated...

    My Dream Tank, is it possible?

    Hey Chris, Some "creative" aquascaping (ooops, this rock fell on him) may help encourage your GBTA to split - not that I condone beating up on your anemones - I just know that it has prompted a few accidental splits on my RBTA's. Good luck!

    Filling the CO2 cannister

    Okay, so I finally dove into the CA Reactor pool. I picked up a Korallin (c1502) reactor with a 5lb Co2 Cylinder which I need to fill before I can use and for the life of me I have NO IDEA where to get it filled! I'm sure that someone here has run into this issue, I live in Kirkland, where or...

    Tank Shots!

    The mantis was caught with the soda/bucket trick! (Worked like a freaking charm!) We thought we'd killed him for a few minutes, but no - he revived in some tank water. So he's not pleased at the moment... The main tank is 125 gallons (which is what you all have seen), but we also have a 55...

    Tank Shots!

    So I know that I've been quite out of the forum for a while, but I miss you all! Saturday I had the opportunity to hit the Shark Reef for some new LR so yesterday was "Re-aquascape day!" We started tearing down by pulling all of our corals down and putting them in bins, then we pulled out much...

    appropriate measure

    Hi Guys, I must first apologize for the extended silence and let you know that it is very uncharacteristic. I have been troubled at how little I have been able to participate when I had agreed to be an integral part of the group this season. With that said, I am unfortunately not becoming...
