    Thought I would post a few pics of the tank that so many of you knowledgable folks helped with. Don't think I could have done it without your help and support. Thanks to all of you !!!!

    Eeeee-gads After reading about the devilish blue legged hermits, I went looking for the little dudes last night with my magnifying glass. Guess what I saw???? You got it, blue legs sticking out from underneath the shell of my tequilla snail! That's just wrong !!! Thanks for the thread guys...

    Anybody else dislike hermits??

    I originally bought 2 blue legs, use to see them all the time but haven't seen them for a long time. The other day I saw a couple of blue legs laying on the DSB. If blue legged crabs are so mean, what would take them out? I have several small nass, astrea, turbo's. Before they dissappeared I...

    Phosphate

    Mike: I think I have stocked properly, except maybe the worms. I know I have a lot of copods, see them and their tracks regularly. As far as worms go, what kind do I need? I posted another message recently about finding these very long, transparent, thread like worms that I am not sure...

    Phosphate

    I keep reading about Phos test kits, as well as Calcium etc., but I can't seem to find these kits as the LFS. Where do you get them and is it as complicated as it sounds to get accurate results. Is this something that I need to worry about with a new tank with DSB? It sounds bad. Kathy

    Need some input

    From an outsiders viewpoint....... As stated before, I do not live in the WA area and cannot come to your PSAS meetings, tours and the like (although I would love to at some point), but I have considered, in the month I have visited here, of joining PSAS after reading about it, because I...

    mushrooms moving....?

    Thanks Jason... I knew other "things moved", ie; my RTA, but had not heard about mushrooms. Just happy to know it is the norm. Any ideas about my little "thread like" worms? Thanks again, Kathy

    mushrooms moving....?

    Not sure if this is the proper place to post this, but here it is. Couple weeks ago I purchased a rock with several mushrooms, plus other very small growths of different kinds. (I think to small to photograph).......my question, Over the last several days, the mushrooms are sliding off the...

    Lets talk about ~Aquarium Husbandry~

    KISS = Keep It Simple (Stupid), or the not so rude version is..... Keep It Simple (at the) Start. Thanks Scooterman, I haven't stopped reading, it has become part of my daily routine. My oldest said to me when they gave the gift of the tank set-up was, "I knew you always wanted one, and...

    Lets talk about ~Aquarium Husbandry~

    O.K. Tank is about a month old, 30g; w/30lb LR and DSB only for about 3 wks., never really had any big spikes in water. At that time only had the standard light 20W? aquarium bulb. I have since upgraded to the 96W daylight (10000k), + 96W actinic. Running W/D filter with built in skimmer...
