    Appetite for Cyclopeeze

    i use the freeze dried cyclop-eeze regularly and my tank loves it. I usually put a portion in a small (baby food) jar with tank water and shake it up before feeding, and then poor in or spot feed with a pipette. My acans get HUGE

    hey man, I pm'd you (on psas) about the 20k coralvue last weekend and you said "Sorry but I'm still using the 20k and the reeflux I gave someone too see how it looks." Is it available now? I'm still interested if so. Thanks- Tony

    question for the SCUBA divers

    exactly. I'm easy, I've even scooped some sandy goop and plants out of the low tide flats on Alki and put them in a small tank, let the dust settle, and stared at the crazy amount of critters that were clinging to the algae for a few hours. Lots of shrimp, crabs, pods, anenomes....

    question for the SCUBA divers

    I got my open water cert ~7 years ago and just started really using it, mainly on Alki. Cove 2 is a nice enough spot to get back into diving for me. I'm up for a dive with divers that are comfortable with a newbie. One long summer during college, I worked doing maintenance on Albertson's...

    Need advice for a new tank build

    great feedback-sounds like a dolphin or eheim will be my final choices, depending on whether I want to pump internal or external. Thanks a lot folks!

    Anyone have input on glass tanks

    Seems like more custom builds are made of acrylic due to ease of fabrication and lower weight, though I've always gone with glass with for the same reason jesshimom stated. An oops moment created with a grain of sand isn't worth it to me. I'm under the impression that oceanic tanks typically...

    Need advice for a new tank build

    Thanks mike and finn-i've been looking at the eheims, good to hear your advice as I have no experience with them. I'll have to look into the poseidon's as well. Looks like there's a dolphin in the equip. for sale section, anyone use them? a lot of folks in OR used iwaki...any word on that brand...

    Need advice for a new tank build

    Hey folks- I'm using a mag drive as a return on my current set up, and it's a bit loud. I'm building a new system, and would like to keep it quiet...any advice? I don't particularly care if the return is internal or external, but I'll need a pump for sump return and one for a cl. Dolphin...

    Hi, I'm a noob

    Seriously, those are great shots. Increased captive breeding of marine species has produced a variety of fish that are hardier in captive environs than their wild caught counterparts-you're just watching out for a few more parameters in addition to the pH, alkalinity, and nitrogen that you're...

    Hi, I'm a noob

    Haha GL! Same thing, only different!!:lol::D Hi Laurel! Be careful here, this forum deals with critters of overpowering beauty. Your post got me thinking about when I first started checking out salt systems and what they were all about. I'd played with fresh water for awhile, and I was curious...

    Refuge methodology questions

    Great discussion-I love da fuge. FWIW-here's my experience... I had a multi-purpose 25g display fuge on my 55g reef in which I wanted to farm pods and other benefitial bugs (worms, stars, etc), export nutrients via macro growth (and removal), and try my hand at denitrification. My DSB was about...

    whos wants free macros? (and LR FOR SALE TOO;))

    I'm moving my tanks today and have to get rid of some larger-sized (basketball) clumps of mixed macros (they've all grown together) and some other stuff. I'll have two large clumps of two kinds of halimeda mixed with razor caulerpa, a few balls of chaetomorpha (larger than softballs), and a few...

    With great remorse, I am tearing down/selling my baby...
