    Cortez Stingrays?

    I was told by indoor reef that they eat krill, as well as scraps left behind. They seem pretty small, and are supposed to stay that way. I certainly don't want to risk anything else in my tank!:badgrin::badgrin:

    Cortez Stingrays?

    IR told me they get to be about 6-8 inches when adult. I am hoping this is accurate. I would not put a fish in an environment that is unsuitable. I only have the 46 now, but am looking for larger. I want my critters to grow with their environment, and would never put a large fish in a small...

    Cortez Stingrays?

    I think I talked to Paul. I'm not sure. I was told that they are extremely docile, and totally reef safe. They eat krill, and scraps that fall to the bottom of the tank.I have very good flow, and the rays I looked at were extremely active. They are so graceful and elegant, and I would love to...

    Cortez Stingrays?

    I was at indoor reef today purchasing salt, and had to look around. They had 3 or so cortez stingrays. Does anyone have any insight on these? Are they ref safe? Other fish interactions? Adult size? I would like any input available. They are beautiful, but I don't want to make a bad decision...

    A Very Slow Work In Progress... Take 2!

    Thanks, Krish. I appreciate that. I don't appreciate condescending attitude... BTW the aiptasia is gone, thanks to Kalk, and everything is thriving in my tank.

    Just Got Shocked!!

    Here's my two cents... Don't stick yer hand in the tank if you have an open wound! you are looking for trouble. There is so much bacteria floating around a healthy tank that can do a lot more damage than a little electric shock. Especially if you have zoo's. Their toxin can do some pretty severe...

    So. Florida ??? Advice?

    I can deal with a hurricane or two(I hope... I'm pretty naive, but willing to try anything!) My wife lived in SC for a while, and says that is completely out of the question! But we need a change. I can't wait to leave here! I do love it here, it's beautiful, but I want to try new things.

    Florida Move????

    Thanks, Julia! You are so correct! so many engineers that I have worked with only have book knowledge. I can't even begin to estimate how many plans haven't worked in real life. As far as my eye... I see it as a blessing in disguise. Life happens, and God has blessed me with a great...

    Florida Move????

    I am studying civil engineering. I have been in the construction industry my entire life, as a heavy equipment operator and foreman/superintendant, building what the engineers design. That is until June of last year. A series of events, which I will not call unfortunate because they have...

    Florida Move????

In all honesty, I want to move to the carribean(Jamaica is awesome! been there twice in the past year). But there is so...

    Do I need to run a different light cycle than my main tank? I don't know my butt from a hole in the ground as far as this goes:eek: The HOB is 25 long x 4.5 deep x 12 high. Where the heck do I get chaeto?

    Identification Help

    I've been dealing with those pests for a little while now. Here's my experience. I'm far from an all knowing source, as I'm pretty new to the hobby. Either method you use , do so with much care, especially when near something you want to keep. I used boiling water, and it works well if not...
