      but regardless of how cold it gets outside, don't you keep your house at a consistent temp range inside?

      Our house holds heat pretty well, so should not be a problem.

      The AC guys recommend pour some bleach down, once a month IIRC, to prevent further issues.

      lol - ya'll are funny :) Unfortunately, I am seahorse-less for a couple months while I let my tanks re-cycle. I learned the hard way that patience pays in this hobby. But I'm still impatient anyway :P. I can't wait to see the pics and be jealous!

      Yeah, we've been waiting for the new one! No sense in spending time on old technology.

  6. I am starting to feel like Ty... every time I clean the glass in the 24g I break some Birdsnest tips and the top of a hard tube worms tube.

      I saw one porcelain this morning in the big tank. Though he was hiding down in a mini cave. The sexy shrimp are in the little tank where I can see them (except when they jump into the overflow).

      Mine does that sometimes and I don't see it for a week or so and then it magically appears. They burrow in the sand

      Hello James, I have a couple of questions I was curious about and was wondering if you might be able to answer for me. What determines a members status as far as guppy, reef keeper, zen, elite and so on. Also what does it mean when a member has a Reputation on profile.....Thanks

  16. Why do single rock moves always result in a complete re-aquascape?

      Not blind jenga. Once a few pieces started moving, it got all cloudy.

    3. Peter Gott

      Peter Gott

      That just means you had a really good aquascape...so of course moving one rock throws it all off, and then the chain of moving starts, haha.

      Yeah, even my wife said it looked good before. Still waiting on the verdict of the new layout.

      They like sand, so when I got mine I just put him in the sand and turned off the flow for 15 mins or so, didn't take him long to bury into it.

      Thanks. He is down in the sand. Still hasn't attached, but the clownfish is keeping it in place.
