    metal halide identifcation

    I'm not positive, but do 400w MH come in HQI? Probably do but I'm more of a 250w guy. Here's some stuff I found online ANSI Codes - HQI Watts ANSI Code 70 M85 150 M81 250 M80 ANSI Codes - Probe Watts ANSI Code 175 M57 250 M58 400 M59 1000 M47 ANSI Codes - Pulse Watts ANSI Code 175...

    What is growing in my sump?

    I'm not sure that they are Marc. Holygral said there there isnt any "hairs/tentacles" as the same does the pineapple sponges. Could be though, maybe just not getting a good look at them. Holygral, got any closer pictures of em in water?

    February 17th PSAS Meeting - Frank Marini

    I wasn't making fun of ya Ed, you know I'd never do that :D What I was saying is I figured you would have taken many "embarrassing" pictures of others wolfing down on pizza, and in Ben's case....rabbit food ;)

    What is growing in my sump?

    Here's a couple pics. Not the greatest, as my camera blows. These are the ones in my overflow, they're pretty big, put a quarter there for size reference. http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p167/hooked82/DSCN6204.jpg http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p167/hooked82/DSCN6202.jpg

    What is growing in my sump?

    If they're pineapple sponges then they are not bad. I'm not quite sure what good they are, but they are definately not harming anything. I'll try and get a good up close pic of mine when my batteries recharge to give you a reference.

    What is growing in my sump?

    I don't have a single one in my main tank either, nor my refugium. Just the overflows and sump which are unlighted. Maybe that has something to do with where they like to grow.

    What is growing in my sump?

    Looks like pineapple sponges like stated earlier. I've got hundreds to thousands of them growing in my overflows and sump. Tried feeding one to my tang before but no takers :)

    Nice work Ed, once again coming through with the pics. Though I'm surprised you didnt get more pictures of people eating than the actual meet :D

    February 17th PSAS Meeting - Frank Marini

    Frank - Thank you very much for the great presentation. I was very interested and wish the best of luck to you on your future successes with the banggai and we hope you can help to get them protected. It would be a shame to see them go. I learned a lot and am glad that the PSAS had brought...

    tank questions!!!

    A 2x2x2 comes out to 60 gallons. With that size of pumps would give it a 100x turnover rate. I would think that the flow would be good for a bigger tank, but the 1 MH wouldn't be as it sounds like you would be going with SPS with the setup.

    I would have to agree, fun was had all around. Great seeing everybody again. Can't wait till the next one!! :)

    Thought these were funny.........

    LOL, very good stuff. Reminds me of the movie I watched not too long ago called Idiocracy. It's along the same premise of your stories about in the future the world is going to be full of completely stupid people becuase thats all they do is reproduce, lol. Good stuff.

    If anybody from up north picks some up, I would love to get my hands on anything :D

    me and the food :D

    I can throw mine in frozen and it will still be gone in 10 seconds flat, lol. I just throw the 2 cubes in and they all come out and start chowing down. Doesn't last too long in my tank.

    Neptune/Aquadyne compatible with DJ Power strip?

    I don't have any help to give you on the subject other than what Dang said. Donna is very helpful, I had some questions with my Aquadyne and she helped me out quite a bit. Good luck

    me and the food :D

    I just pop out 2 cubes into a cup, take some tank water and thaw them out. It will thaw them pretty quick, you just gotta catch it before they start to "melt"

    Lighting

    A 75w MH would do just fine in that tank for softies, and maybe even some SPS depending on placement and depth of tank. You can also go with some pc bulbs, that way you can go with actinic's, blue's, and 10K bulbs to give a variety of color. That all depends on your taste though. When you were...

    I would have to agree that it is the best way to approach the hobby...slowly. I did jump into my 125 a little quick. I bought it from a guy one day out of the blue and was like uhhhh, what am I going to do with this, lol. It's been quite the journey, though if I had to do it all over and...
