    2007 IMAC Registration Giveaway

    I'd be happy to meet everyone that is going to IMAC. How do we arrange a meeting? I went to MACNA in Houston last year and only met up with random people with no planning, I'd like to improve upon that this time :) Brian

    Manjo eaters

    None that I know of, in fact the only thing I've heard of that eats them are nudibranchs. I wrote an article about my experience with them: http://www.reefkeeping.com/issues/2006-05/bp/index.php However, their diet is still poorly studied and it is unknown if they would attempt to eat other...

    Project DIBS

    Jonathan, You are pretty much correct there in that in the future there will be regional distribution centers and Texas will be just one of many. You are in a unique position to have such a large tank and the store that can handle being a regional distributor. However, it should be clear...

    Member of the Month - February 2007

    Sue, Congrats, your tank is very pretty and I really liked that you saved the freshwater fish from certain doom :) Nice to see someone local win the MOTM B.

    Best corals for 20g nano

    Good suggestions of course, but I do want to point out that if you put an Acanthastrea in the tank, make sure there are no other corals within at least an inch (better two inches), they can really do a lot of damage to nearby corals that can't defend themselves: Damage afterwards: Just...

    Dendronepthya, common name carnation

    I think this article by Eric Borneman says it all: http://www.reefs.org/library/aquarium_net/1296/1296_4.html Nothing has changed since 1996 when this article was written, they are still nearly impossible to keep and should not be purchased. It amazes me they are still imported. Brian

    Help ID this please! Good or Bad?

    Usually they don't move, but I have several in my tank that do move! They will slowly stretch in one direction and attach to the rock just a few mm or cm away. It will then slowly let go of the old spot. I have a couple that have moved about 3-4 inches in the last year from this method. This...

    Neon Psuedochromis Suprise

    That is one expensive nest substrate they decided to use! Good luck raising the fish :)

    New research Fronteirs

    HAHA. Convincing the wife hands down. We have an agreement: No more tanks in this house, but I get to do whatever I want in the next house with at least a 10x10 fish room. So it looks like the shrimp project will have to wait for a couple of years :( It will be worth the wait though. Brian

    New research Fronteirs

    Don't forget mobile invertebrates :D There are a lot of possibilities with them as well. Personally I would love to see someone tackle sexy shrimp (it has been done before). Heck, I might do it if I can find the time and convince the wife to let me put another tank in :) Brian

    Reef Salt???

    I've used the following: IO - cheap, readily available, mixes well, but the low Calcium was a pain to me. Kent - most expensive I've used, but typicall mixes up to alk 10dKH, Ca of around 400 and Mg of 1200-1300. My corals like this salt the best and I'm sticking with it. I pay between...

    Correct Long Lived Options?

    Terry, I'm working on making the selections for fish in my 75 gallon tank and wanted to ask a couple of questions. My eventual goal is to try my hand at breeding fish, simply for the challenge it presents, not to make a profit. However, I will not have the time to attempt raising the eggs...

    Merry Christmas from Anthony :)

    Happy holidays to you too Anthony! Good to find your forum. I'm very excited you are coming to the next MACNA. I really hope to get some time to meet you and chat it up! Brian
