Inland Reef

That is, if rain doesn't evaporate in free fall or upon contact.

You can also get in on the BRS group order and order directly from them. Get exactly the amount you want.

There are a few other people ordering stuff, so you could probably split shipping if they didn't already qualify for free shipping.

Very cool John. Glad you were able to take advantage of the group buy!

Looks like it wants to be frag'd!

Ok, so I was a couple days late on the monthly pic thing. I was meaning the red white and blue one....

I'm sure it won't be hard to get another group buy together.

When I called yesterday, they said it would be about a month until they got some more in, but they don't know exactly, so it could be longer.

If you want to start cycling the tank, you could always buy some of the eco rock to get it started.

Depending on how you do it, it could be a 4-6wk process. May as well get it going sooner rather than later.

Besides that, after the tank is established you can always sell the rock to make room for the Pukani and you'll have a cycled tank. Just a suggestion.

Yep. Group buy is open. If anyone wants to get in on it, BRS will add you to the order if you'd like (while the group buy is on going 8/2-8/8).

Ya, I was wanting to buy a bunch of that myself.

I called them yesterday and they said it'll be about a month until they get more in.

Very nice macro shot. That should be in this months pic contest!

I've always liked Monti's. Superman, & Rainbows are my fav.

That worked. Thanks for the tutorial.

You so smart....

Sorry all. Fairy Dust Paly's have all found new homes. Not sure how to change the title of this thread, or I would mark it as Gone....

Next time I prune em back, I'll put up another post.

I need to do about 15g some time this week.

I live way S. but work up in RR.

Shoot me a PM if you want it.

Paperwork for the BRS group order has been submitted.

Everyone on the list should receive an email which opens the group buy tomorrow.

If you don't receive it by the end of day tomorrow, shoot me a PM and I'll contact BRS.

Thanks to everyone that signed up.

Hi Renee.

Welcome to the club & the world of SaltWater.

I don't have any more fairy dust palys, but I could tear you off a frag of Green Star Polyp (GSP). That stuff grows like wild fire and it's super hearty.

Nice man.

I've seen some pics of Blue Boobies full colonies & love em.

Congrats on some nice pieces.

Hi Brandon. I am very intrigued by your projects & the work you've done with these micro pico tanks.

Do you have a web page or forum thread where you've documented this in more detail? Lights, circulation, water changes, sand bed, feeding, clean up crew, dosing etc.

It's fascinating how the coral's have adapted to the micro environment and changed their normal behavior.

Anyone else like to get in on this?

I'll be submitting the paperwork around 11am Monday morning, so get your name in before tomorrow.

Very interesting. I never thought about keeping a reef environment in such a small space. Congrats on your success.

Short answer is yes.

It really depend on how big it is. If your a decent size (diameter of a pencil or so), then gently separate it as close to the rock as possible. Then stick it in it's new location. It will re-attach itself within a couple days.

Things to note. In my experience they are relatively hearty, but can be hit or miss. Some have relocated with no problems, others have not been happy and completely abandoned their tube. One took a while and build another one, one dissappeared completely. Generally they handle the move just fine.

You should be prepared that the fanworm may not come out for a few days, even up to a week or so.

I recently moved a tank and there was a loose tube. I wasn't sure there was even a worm inside. I gently squeezed it and it felt like there was something in there, but I wasn't sure. So just in case, I stuck it inbetween a couple rocks. I didn't see it come out, then one evening after the lights had been out a while, I looked & it was out. Couple days later it started coming out during the day.

It doesn't hurt if feed your tank phyto, reefroids, oyster eggs, or some kind of filter feeding food. When I feed, all my fan worms pop out.

Great! I'll probably just piggy back off you if you don't mind. One of the items I wanted I ended up getting cheaper through someone getting out of the hobby on another board. Saved me $15 bucks and it's still new in box. Can't complain there. So I may be looking to spend around $40.. I might look around more.

Cool.

We now have 10 members signed up for the BRS group buy, so we are in.

If anyone else would like to join in, please send me your last name & the email you used to set up your BRS account.

I will prepare the paperwork & submit it on Monday (8/2). Then what? Here is what will happen after your list is emailed to BRS:

• On the pre-determined Tuesday (8/3) each participant will receive an email notifying them that the Group Buy has started.
• Participants can start buying as soon as they get this email. Please wait for this email before placing orders!
• During the group buy week participants will login to their own account to place their own order, which ships immediately.
• At the end of the Group Buy each participant's account will be changed to Preferred Customer. BRS Preferred Customer pricing is generally between our retail and group buy prices. This permanent upgrade is our way of saying thanks for getting your reef supplies with us!

Your PM is full.

haha I've been meaning to ask if you were an Aggie! All the A&M stuff tipped me off.

We were just in Bryan/CS this past weekend. It pains me to visit that place, but my in-laws are there, so it's frequent. I make sure to represent the Burt Orange while I'm surrounded by a sea of Moron. I mean.... Maroon
