    Thanks a lot. How often is frequent?? 3-5 days, 1 per week ???? What brand test kits do you use?? More brain picking - sorry, I'm almost ready to retire for the evening, or morning. BJ

    Sump Baffles

    I knew someone told me that, was it you?? I've seen a couple like that, why? I thought I needed dsb to handle my nitrate problem?

    bristle worms

    When I thought they were bad (more advise from lfs, who we don't like) I got an arrowcrab and that bad boy had one munching on it every morning. Then I thought I was eating the legs off my ornamental brittle star (confusing it with the bristle worm) and I put the crab in the back FOWLR. Then I...

    need help with this

    My friend had lots of these guys. They were really small and sounds like the same. Hide in holes with legs sticking out until nighttime. Some were the size of a pea, some bigger maybe the size of a quarter. She rounded a bunch up for me and I threw the clump in my tank and Mr. Going Bye Bye...

    When does a clown tang mature?

    He's a pretty good sized fellow.....probably at least 3" from tip to tip. The one in the bigger pic above has a slightly more green tinge than mine, but that could be lighting. Edit: changed my mind, I think he's a good 4" actually...

    Yellow Tangs for $1.99

    I had really good luck with them. Ordered some rockanemones, green ricordia (they always have for 7.99), goronians, and a couple fish. They pd shipping, everything arrived alive!

    When does a clown tang mature?

    No not really, I just thought that may be from juvie state. The picture above looks more like the picture showing both juvie and adult???? There's two pretty good pics in my photo gallery...

    Coral Beauty losing "beauty"

    Not alk kit, I got it backwards if thats what I said. I have a calcium kit and intend to get alk kit. I don't really want to admit this, but I have 5-1 test strips, and thats what I've been going by on alk and ph and nitrates. That's probably part of my problem as well, but I know the...

    Coral Beauty losing "beauty"

    Calcium too high! I lost my chart that goes with my test kit, but I'm up to like 33 drops which I think is way off the chart as I recall. I think it was like 20 drops that indicated 300-400 range. I'll have to get a alk kit. I've ordered a iodide/iodine test kit and will get an alk kit. On...

    Not in FAQ's (I hope)

    Well since nitrates is my main issue, I guess they should go. I have to fish out a pretty healthy engineering goby anyway, may as well face it! I've read 3-4" sandbed, is that only if you are putting it in the aquarium?? Would I be able to leave crushed coral in and really dsb in sump? Can...

    Not in FAQ's (I hope)

    Now that everyone has gotten their funnies off...... I am going to get a mag 5 for a return pump, put a rubbermaid container under my tank, it has short stand and can't be too tall, fill the bottom with sand, put a shorter smaller container on both ends, with holes around top 2-3" below water...

    Not in FAQ's (I hope)

    I'm so glad I could entertain you "guys" this afternoon! Now before I go any further, somebody tell me where the key to all the acronyms is!!! I can figure some, but not all! After all, I do fall in the old fogey catagory...... BJ
