  1. Make sure you buy the smallest hippo you can find, they grow really fast and you are right at the limit of being able to keep one. I have a 75 as well and it took about six months to find a hippo small enough for me. I got one smaller than a quarter. I've had him about a year and he's about three to four inches long. I would also wait to add more fish after what you just put in. Patience is hard to practice.
  2. 1+ on the no light. I got a media reactor and ran rowaphos, got more flow than any 75 gal should have and it wasn't until I did a week w/o light that the red menace was gone.
  3. I'd like to look at the zoa's I'm in RR by the hospital LMK
  4. bump and really interested in what ya'll feed for sps growth. Thanks
  5. I use Kalk, I just mix it really thick and put it on the aptasia with an eye dropper. Works great and is supper cheap.
  6. David and Robin thank you so much for the wonderful hospitality and frags. Your tanks are an inspiration!
  7. Thanks it was nice meeting you. If you need help with moving and reinstalling your sump LMK
  8. That was good thanks Pat
  9. I have several different kinds of zoa's and mushrooms. I have a red and purple monti, red and purple digi, and a couple of different acro's, a chalice and a scolly .
  10. do you get much growth with once a week? I was feeding about the same and don't have much growth. I don't think I'll be using my media reactor much would you like to borrow it RJohn? I think it and the week of no lights turned the tide. I've been free of the red menace for two weeks now and it feels nice. LMK on the reactor.
  11. I'd like to pick ya'll brains about what you feed em, how much and how often. I've been feeding very minimally since battling cyano. So now that that's under control I would like to get better growth and want to start feeding them more. So please share your knowledge.
  12. Could you put it in a bucket till this eve? I'm in C.P. and can get it after 6 LMK if that works, if it does I'll dole it out as I won't need it all.
  13. I'd like to see the clam before I claimed it.
  14. My oldest has some minor surgery this Friday and I'll be home nursing her but I'd love to make the next one.
  15. I'd be careful with limestone "holy" rocks as you'll never know the mineral make up for sure. There are some things that can be detrimental to a reef tank that can be in there. Could you get away with it? Maybe. I save my gambling for Vegas not my tank. Just my 2 cents. Good luck.
  16. This is cracking me up. I tried selling the thing for 10 bucks (i converted an old wet/dry filter thus the low water level) no takers. I gave it to Chris no takey. Now poor Mark can't get rid of it.
  17. I don't really care how we do it. I just think having more time in a relaxed environment to shoot the bull and get to know some of you guys better would be fun.
  18. Sounds good to me. I have chips and a tabletop if you need them.LMK
  19. Bill thanks for the coral as always it's a pleasure to deal with you sir.
  20. Can you post a pic of the frag your selling?
  21. SO WE STILL COOL FOR RCA SAT? WHEN?
  22. Day two of full photo period and no red menace!!! JOY!!!!!!
  23. you hit it in your post; the cyano goes away at night and comes back during the photo period. So an extended break from the photo period helps keep it away. I would have a clean sand bed at night and then a matt of the stuff during the day. I kept the lights off for four days and today was the first day with the lights back on (2 250w mh's) and much to my delight no red menace when I got home. I'm watching my corals sway in the current and drinking a glass of victory wine while I type this. Even if for some reason this is not the end of the war I'm celebrating winning this battle.
