    Need Oxygen

    in Reef Keeping

    Posted

    At home depot you can buy oxygen bottles, really small ones for a mini toch kit they sell, I have one but its an hour from you.

    Cool! I found it but it looks like it is capped off. Any suggestions on how to dispense the oxygen in a controlled manner?

    I'm shipping my fish tonight to their temporary home and would like to oxygenate the bag. However I don't have an oxygen bottle laying around.

    Does anyone have one, or know where I could go to oxygen injected into the their bags?

    Maybe Robb could hook me up at the hospital!

    ECOTECH CORAL GLUE

    in Austin Aqua-Dome

    Posted

    I used to use the Dollar Store glue and I ended up going through so many of them, then having to go back to the store, it just made me mad. Now I have a 295 mL bottle of the EcoTech glue that I still haven't used up and it actually works.

    12+ polyp of Armor of God Zoas

    in Livestock

    Posted

    I've most commonly seen these called "armor of God" zoas so that's what I'll call them too. Metallic orange body with white mouth.

    This frag is some of the babies and I've included a picture of the mother colony so you can see how big they get.

    $15
