    What camera do you use?

    Pretty simple actually. 1. I watch the stormt o see where the most activity is and about how long between strikes... and where most of them are concentrated.... Then I set the camera on a tripod and manually focus it. Then I set the shutter speed for 45 seconds. Take a picture and wait for...

    What camera do you use?

    and another, both pics were originally at the largest format of the camera, which is a RAW format or approx 7.1 mpx. The clarity is awesome. I was able to zoom in 600 x before it begins to pixelate. I love this camerea. BTW it is a Canon Digital Rebel.

    Have you experienced this?

    NaH20 I have not removed the dead aptaisia. They just melt and if I remove the Jj and dead appy it has a better chance of returning. I have a substrate... .5 - 1.5 inches CC and LS. Slime grows on rocks, substrate, and blue ridge coral (all areas of good water flow... but lower than the rest...

    Have you experienced this?

    I have only dosed with JJ in 4 bouts. each time I went after about 30 or so aptaisia. My skimmer hardly ever produces anything unless I feed a liquid food or powder food to the tank. It does not react with JJ. Just a thought. I will see how it holds over the next month. Although, I am...

    DIY auto top off for cheap and easy

    I just completed an auto top off system that was super easy and cheap... thought I would share what and why I did it. Why: My tank evaporates about 5 gallons per week, so I need to top off once a week at least. I am about to leave on vacation for 10 days and don't want to have to explaine to...

    Have you experienced this?

    Just wondering if anyone else is seeing this too. I have had my 85 gallon reef tank up for 5 years. I have not seen red slime since back when i used tap water... 5 years ago. Now I have it again. Water tests returned this: ph 8.0 in morning, 8.3 by mid day, 8.3 in evening Gh: 12 nitrite...

    how do you kill mojano anemones???

    Joes juice warning part 2 I have been using joes juice ever since My 6-line developed a taste for peppermint! I have noticed that joes juice will bleach by lue ridge anywhere it comes in contact with it (despite my best efforts). Joes juice seems to not bother any other coral I have even if I...

    Entertain my thought it's entertaining ;)

    I have one in my house. I love it.... never have to flush twice... and it scares the hell out of people who aren't expecting the loud whoosh when it flushes. Here is how it works: The plastic tank is air tight. When the water gets turned on to the unit water fills the tank half way before the...

    Please ID these LR inhabitants ?

    My 2 cents: My Meathod for killing aptaisia: 1 (newest meathod) buy 3 Berghia. They do great when you can see them. 2 (newer meathod) Joes Juice. Love the stuff. Accidentally dropped ALOT on a couple corals without any side affects. (although my BTA reacts everytime I use it) 3 Cover with...
