  1. Garlic extract from Heb, instead of garlic extreme, you can definetly get nori at heb as well in the sushi section. I hung my pendent lights for less than 10.00 w/ hardware from home depot
  2. check my latest post in off topic mama!

  3. thanks... now im just waiting for it to purple up.
  4. heres mine after i added about 60 more lbs of rock to it
  5. stay on top of your water changes... i thought mine had greened because of mg but i laid off for a few weeks and nothing happened, started doing weekly changes and colors started to come back. someone suggested that the water had been depleted of necessary trace elements and the water change replaced them. my alk was low as well. so maybe get your dkh up and do a few water changes see if thatll do anything for you.
  6. 35 bucks for my fire fish and pearly jaw... Fire fish jumped out of the tank found him behind the tank tonight. jawfish hasnt been seen in three days. i know hes in there cause he made a burrow in my sand bed but he wont come out I figured id barley see the jawfish but still figured hed come out more.
  7. ill take it if it falls through
  8. agree wit the above. just pull out a little saltwater and add rodi watter. mine was a little high as well. This method worked fine
  9. it actually looks like it grew while it was out there ill throw it in a tank this weekend see what happens. I dont have a fuge so if it dies off no biggie really. Thanks guys
  10. I had some sitting in a bucket of waste water for a month or so and forgot about it... no light sealed in a 5g bucket. Does this stuff die or is it still able to be used.
  11. these guys have bred twice allready however i never caught them in the act one day theyre were 2 then 45 and then 90 now im back to 50 or so. I think they may they maybe getting theyre freak on again. they were spewing some junk in the water and theyre all in groups in the tank
  12. how do they reproduce? I flipped my lights on a sec ago and notices theyre all next too each other. when i moved one of them he shot some junk out. my water is real cloudy right now. Im wondering if theyre mating right now
  13. Just wondering what a medium white sebae with purple tips would cost roughly and also maybe a solid white bubble tip?
  14. yeah its a toadstool i have one in my tank those things will live through anything
  15. Theyre bad i had some in my 55 they eat coraline algae
  16. I made the move from a 55 to 90. Set your new tank up as soon as possible to get it cycling. Let it do its thing for a few days. Slowly start adding your rock to the tank. After tank is cycled move your livestock over and tear the old one down. Go with halide lighting, more expensive then t5 but youll be happier with the results. Also pick up a bottle of stability from aquatek itll help get your tank cycled a lot sooner, and its great when adding new fish to the tank too.
  17. Good question... It seems unlikely id say. Ive never had any anemones ingest a fish although i have heard of it happening.
  18. well i awoke to only 3 fish yesterday morning... I figured they were just hiding, but after a few hours and nothing i decided to form a search party I looked near and far and nothing. Finally i decided on a hunch to check my overflow and what did i find... A chromis swimming in my overflow... After an hour of maneuvering a huge net i caught him. Then i decided to search the sump and i found the other... unfortunately he didnt make it. well then i was redoing my rocks to move my mushrooms lower and i guess i scared them and they darted into the rocks... well apparently one decided to take refuge in my maxi jet... Needless to say he didnt make it either. Im now down to three and i officially hate maxi jets. Ive lost a chromis and about 20 snails now
  19. Id say its a close race between the dome and rca
  20. Yeah everyone at aquadome is super friendly... Gary Terry and Hunter are all very helpful. My dad used to take me there when i was younger. ive always enjoyed their place. ill drive from pflugerville to south austin for their prices and service. Hunter has always let me bug him with questions and advice when im in there.
  21. Pick up a bottle of stability from aquatek. Its about 6 bucks and will help shorten the cycle time on your tank.
  22. go to cvs or wal-mart and get some elmers or 3m super glue gel. Ive found those work well. nice and thick so theres no running or dripping

  24. Aqua dome ussually has great prices on their coral... Im a little cautious of their livestock though, Rivercity is the most helpful and has best costumer service. Rivercity also has the best prices on their livestock and their fish always seem to be in great condition. aquatek usualy has some good deals on their corals in the 45 dollar tank. My 2 cents
  25. Yeah these are two small 18" inch lights at only 18 watts a piece so i hope they wont give me any problems.
