  1. Put together a very cheap and easy frag rack consisting of 2 zip ties, 2 3/4" PVP Tee, and left over egg crate.
  2. According to the article unless they don't have their facts straight then it's Idaho Aquarium Director and Owner Ammon Covino Aquarium Director Christopher Conk So Chris Conk was convicted 2 years ago with his ex wife. Regardless of who officialy owns the aquarium they are brothers (Vince Covino and Ammon Covino)and knew what they were doing was wrong since Chris Conk was already convicted and is probably still on parole. Doesn't look like we really wanted them here anyway http://www.zoochat.com/22/idaho-aquarium-review-262820/
  3. Although I'm all for an aquarium in Austin I cannot allow these guys to ever open shop here. Sorry guys doesn't look like this is going to happen.
  4. Wow good find jestep. After I get my new tank up I can start accepting 50,000 visitings a year at $3 a pop. It would be nice to have an ARC co-op at the aquarium where each member can pay in to rent/have donated a tank and aquascape/stock it to their liking and care for it.
  5. Nope, water change and carbon should do it.
  6. I have some you can scrap off my glass if you'd like. I've also had great sucess in using purple up in conjunction with dosing to really boost it.
  7. Agree with everyone else. Your tank is just in the beginning stages. I would do a 20% water change weekly for a month without adding anything but a clean up crew which should include some turbo snails and peppermint shrimps. I would stay way from hermits.
  8. How long was the acclimation period?
  9. You can also paint the pvc and the paint will cure the same time the glue cures. Just scuff up the pipe a bit and your good.

  11. From my understanding it appears photos need to go in 2 different spots. A build log and somewhere else right? Also the 1 picture a month does not specify having water or even being a FTS. "Each participant will be responsible for a build log (min 3 photos) as well as photos at the beginning of each month (min 1)." Edit... I guess it's this piece your talking about in the Livestock section "All tanks must be set up no later than February 15th, and no sooner than January 15th."
  12. Not ready to put water in my system. Still waiting on a main display piece for my tank. Does that disqualify me?
  13. You can get them at petsmart for $30 but thats for the full setup, hood/filter/light. http://www.petsmart.com/product/index.jsp?productId=11459461&f=PAD%2FpsNotAvailInUS%2FNo
  14. Decided not to do 2 47g talls side by side and buy a rimless. Too bad I have to wait 3-4 months for it.

      Oops, gave you the big tank itch aye?

  15. I use the modified durso standpipe method for my HOB overflow. When I was running an under rated pump I would just close one pipe so I know it'll work in your instance.
  16. We also have Kill-a-watt meters available for premium members along with other items. http://www.austinreefclub.com/forum/138-available-equipment/
  17. same thing goes with fish too now with all the "designer" clowns being breed.

    Thanks for the fish Rob. I'll make sure I take care of him. He is indeed a large goby and is easily 2x bigger than my watchman.

    Sorry Jake. He's also for once right by my house but if you just want to go to the landing strip and have a reason he's got 2 other fish available.
