    Newbies guide to the nano reef

    Thanks Nikki, I've got 30 things going on through what is left of my mind. Though them announcing one last sgt.'s promotion off the list I'm on does help quite a bit. Now only if the chinese government would get off their dupas and get the adoption schedules back on track.... good news is the...

    Newbies guide to the nano reef

    Grammatidae ....not to be confused with the sweet lovely lady who spoiled the bejeesus outta ya. The Gramma Royale (a shout out to the froggies out there) is another in the grouping I like to term as a nano reef terror. Size is ideal but disposistion and tendencies to nip and eat sessile...

    Pseudochromidae ....or the radical jihad movement of the reef dwelling community. Ideal in size for the nano, you have to take in many considerations when you decide if the dottyback is right for you. Good points: A.Coloring is spectacular in most species of this family. B. Free swimmers for...

    Thee Anenome Fish: Amphiprion .....or why is watching Shakes the Clown such a closet activity in America? Before I put my two cents in on the subject I implore you to look at the linked thread that Elmo18 has been laboring on for a long time, a great read on the clown fish...

    Newbies guide to the nano reef

    Anything to be able to use all those neat toys they get. Yes, metropolitan anything, work their tales off. Only because of packing a hundred pounds of manure in a 5 pound bag. I feel for smaller departments because A. everyone of the citizens own a gun. B. you're usually 10-99, (by yourself)...

    Newbies guide to the nano reef

    I always ask a bed wetter what their full time job is. All kidding aside, rather me walking away from a fire then trying to fight it. As a CFD Battlion Chief said on a news piece "We're not the police, we don't run towards a man who has a gun..." Amen. Stay safe, Mike.

    Newbies guide to the nano reef

    Thanks Nikki, was inspired by this whole Mel Gibson incident and anytime I can "give back" to the church, I never pass it up.;) Oh well, I'm still exhausted from last night, power outtage in an area that contained many senior high rises. I sometimes forget that the elevators don't work when...

    Synchiropus splendidus/picturatus Oh, lord in thee high heaven, you sent us not one, but two of your most dazzling, diminutive creatures to be perfect for our smallest and humblest nanos. But being you are the biggest Parrot-head this side of the Pecos, the smartest of any at the Microsoft...

    Question about mushrooms

    Here is how resilient these blasted things are: Leave a little bit of the foot (attatchment) to the rock, you won't need any part of the mouth for it regrow into it's very only new shroom. Started w/one, now have four, all by their own devices. It's even worse with xeniids.

    Pseudocheilinus hexataenia .....or the sorta chillin' six shooter....the six lined wrasse. Adds a major splash of color to any tank it's put in. It's three types of fish rolled into one. A cleaner, pod eater, and scourage to ornamental shrimp. Reddish, orange, purple w/a jigger full of yellow...

    Water parameters correction chart Pleeeeeaaase!

    In regards to phosphate J i C brings up many great points, though I think there are a few points that could be debated: I agree with your assessment that most carbon contains PO4, it will leach into the system and you have to find a brand that is PO4 free. I started with Kent's reef carbon, and...

    Mostly snails, most people neglect adding nass's and bumblebees but they eat what your fish miss. Brittle stars are great for this too, plus they multiply like rabbits. Your algae grazers are on the money, you just have to have the omnivores as well.

    The rest of the goblinoids. ....or things that go bump in the night. Since there seems to be about 5 thousand of these family members (what a reunion that would be) I'll list some more, if there is any behavior or diet concern that is different than the ones previously mentioned then I will...
