  1. The plan on the stand is to build hardwood skins that will connect using rare earth magnets and will be stained to match my cherry kitchen cabinets. The hanging light canopy will also be hardwood and stained the same. This is the last item in the build to complete.

  2. Hi All,

    I have a Sea Hare that eats a ton of Hair Algae that is free to the first person to come get him/her. This animal, with help from my Refugium, took care of the rest of my Hair algae in my 55 fish only tank. That is all that it eats is Hair Algae and it eats all the time. :-).  I was going to take it back to River City and get my money back, but thought that someone in the club may need it. 

    Let me know soon or it will be residing at River City. 

    thanks,

    John

    The fat rabbit is gone to another reefer needing algae help. Thanks all!

  3. Unless you have some absolutely awesome rock that you can't bear to part with, then in that case I would bleach the **** out of it, clean it really good with a pressure washer, and then leave it out in this heat/sun for a few days and it should be pretty clean. No guarantee that everything in the deep crevices is gone, but I would think most everything should be at least dead. 

    Then I would  put it in a tub of salt water for a while to leach out any remaining bad stuff, test the water for nitrate/phosphate, water changes, when those are mostly undetectable start the curing process again. You pretty much need to to the same process with dry Pukani, but I personally would feel safer with the new dry rock, then rock that I know had some issue. 

     

  4. I know this is horrible to think about, but if you have to start over I'd recommend new rock, re-seeding and the whole ball of wax. That way you are sure to remove anything related to the rock. I would get rid of the sand as well. (replace rock, sand, water, thorough clean out of the sump - start over).  If you are nuking the rock you are pretty much starting over anyway, it would cost more $, but be more certain if you start with new/cycled dry rock. Just an opinion.
