    Hello! Moving to Walla Walla

    Hello! I was happy to find a relatively local club, as I wasn't sure what interest level there would be in WW. I have been keeping nano tanks for about 5 years (started with a 14 gal and moved up to a whopping 29!). It's all pretty stable and low-profile at the moment, with a mix of SPS, LPS...

    20 Gallon Mixed Reef

    I'd love to know how it works. My nitrates are stubbornly higher than I want. Just started some macro algae in my fuge, but if that doesn't work I may be in for a reactor.

    New DIY LED build

    Beautiful fixture... Takes DIY to a whole new level. Doubt I'll ever do a build this big but still inspiring. Thanks!

    All About Liverock

    Just wanted to chime in with a thanks...I had essentially the exact same question, having only used live rock before I was a little unsure if I had to let the dry rock age or not. Think I'll toss it in the sump until I am ready for the big move and then from the sounds of it I will be on my way!

    Rothany's Half rimless Shallow Reef Build

    Nice tank! You've had some nice sps growth. What is the wide green strap macro in your fuge? It looks really cool.

    Big Black Bristle worm... A murderer?

    I know! I came across that one while researching eunicids. Can you imagine that 6 foot monster in my 12 gal nano? My little 4-incher (that's how long he was stretched out to feed) did enough damage!

    Big Black Bristle worm... A murderer?

    I definitely got the heebie jeebies while "hunting" for him! Now I just hope there are not dozens more!

    Big Black Bristle worm... A murderer?

    Now Have a Pic Well, after a tip on another forum, I got the idea that it might be a eucenid worm, and that these guys can occasionally munch zoas and corals, so after some searching online I decided to use the tried and true method of flushing him out of his hole with soda water. (Luckily I...

    Big Black Bristle worm... A murderer?

    Yet another ID question.... I have recently lost 2 Pederson's anemone shrimp within 3 days. Since there are no other signs of trouble, I started looking for "hiders". I discovered a worm that has built a small lair in a cave under some rubble ( too deep and dark for a good pic). The first...

    20 Gallon Mixed Reef

    Bummer! Sad way to lose a fish, and I know the pain of trying to catch any fish in a reef. Good luck. Your tank is beautiful though! I am upgrading from a 12 gallon display and am torn between a 20 long and a 29 right now...thanks for the small tank inspiration!

    New DIY LED build

    @ Boomer; the picture with the LED's on the ceiling blew me away...what is that, a 20 degree optic? 0pens up all sorts of possibilities, and what a great clean rimless look. @ Mojo; thank you for the reply on color choice... definitely food for thought before I order my LED's! I researched...

    My 12 Gal Nano Mixed Reef

    Hello, I am new to this forum, so I thought that I would share a little about my tank, which is a 12 gal display with a 10 gal sump/fuge. This is my second tank, my first was a 29 gal that had to be dismantled when we moved to Germany for awhile. This little tank has been up and running about...

    New DIY LED build

    I am planning my second LED build (MUCH smaller at 24 LEDs for a Nano), and have been looking at some of the newerCree colors. My first build was 50/50 royal blue and cool white, which my SPS has been growing well under, but I theorized that adding a few blue and red, maybe even green, might...

    LED conversion on a Biocube?

    If you want to DIY, I have had great luck with RapidLED. High quality Cree LED's. They now have solderless kits available, and a new retrofit kit for the biocube 14. Talk to customer service (very helpful), they might have some good suggestions. PS, I am just a happy customer and am not...

    Hello from Gig Harbor

    Hello all! I have a 12 gal mixed reef with a 10 gal fuge/sump, although hoping to expand to a 30-40 gal display in the near-ish future. Looking forward to getting to know the local reefing community!
