  1. Has anyone seen a Frogspawn randomly pop up in their LR? I have a small, 12 head, colony of frogspawn. I noticed this morning about six inches away from the closest branch was a little tiny frogspawn head coming out of the LR. I thought this was pretty cool, but I was curious if anyone else has ever seen this. Alright, well I tried to upload a pic, but for some reason the forum keeps telling me "Error No file was selected for upload". I am 100% sure this is a frogspawn head and not a hitchhiker.
  2. Well, how's it working? Hopefully you got it all fixed up.
  3. Buy your own rodi unit. It will save you money in the long run.
  4. I still think this sounds like something that should be able to be remedied. What kind of impeller does your pump use? needle wheel? mesh? or just a standard impeller? It might also need to be cleaned as well as the housing around the impeller. I would start by pulling the whole pump and cleaning it all with vinegar and water. Also, are you sure the air intake side of your pump is clear? Might try getting a small drill bit and running it through the whole just to make sure there is no obstructions.

    EASY SPS

    I have two multi branch frags of purple digi and one frag of green milli. I also am selling the mini colony of purple digi. It is encrusted on a small rock and is approx. 4"x4". I am asking $5 for the digi and milli frags and $10 for the mini colony. These are great starter SPS.
  7. lol...wish I did. That would mean I was still on vacation.
  8. Here is a link that has a pic of one. http://www.crystalcovestatepark.com/newtidepls.htm
  9. Looks like a sculpin to me. I don't know much about them except that they are found in both SW and FW. I actually caught a few of the FW variety last week and was using them as brown trout bait.
  10. I knew I recognized that tank. Should make an awesome set up. Congrats!
  11. aww...I was gonna jump on this for $15. Wish I could afford $150
  12. agreed...wouldn't chance it. Just not worth the risk
  13. I know they have that problem. I have been very lucky so far and haven't noticed any troubles. I was told by my vet that a good vet should be able to examine a young puppy and including X-rays should be able to rule out whether the pup will have a problem or not. Another thing we do is give our dog glucosamine which is supposed to help. Thanks for the compliment. We have really enjoyed them.
  14. Personally, my favorite breed is the boxer. I have two here at home and they are both excellent dogs. They are incredibly smart; even if they look dumb as a post they usually are a very intelligent breed. Also, they can be quite the deterant to would be criminals. Ask any of the members here who have seen my dogs. They look and sound like they would eat you alive, but they really just like to announce their presence. They have become quite protective of my kids so they don't like strangers, but I am fully assured that they would never hurt a fly unless truly necessary. They have been excellent with my two young children. My kids climb and jump all over them, and they just lay there and let them do whatever they would like. My older boxer weighs about 65 lbs. and the one year old pup weighs around 40 lbs.

    Thanks very much for the advice and the offer. I actually picked two up from the Dome yesterday. After watching last night I wish I had added those little guys a LONG time ago. They are awesome. I littlerally had a little fish assembly line running across the front of my tank with the two wrasses taking turns cleaning the fish. I was amazed at how fast the tangs knew exactly what the wrasses job was. Pretty awesome symbiotic relationship, if I do say so myself. Plus, I saw one of them eat a planaria flatworm yesterday. That's the first wrasse I have actually seen eat the little boogers. Hopefully, I am killing two birds with one stone.
  16. Love my new cleaner wrasses. I literally have a line of fish running across the front of my tank just waiting to be cleaned, and a fish buffet for the wrasses.

  17. That's AWESOME!! Wanna sell the 1262?
  18. Dare I ask how overloaded your tank was? Sounds like your fish were probably already stressed and the cuc dying just pushed them over. I only say this because a 30 gallon tank is small and in no way should you ever have had a hippo tang in that size tank. So how many other fish were in the tank. Hope this doesn't come across wrong, but I want to make sure zenofix understands everything before getting rid of an excellent filter feeder. On a side note I also kept two cucumbers and they did an excellent job of keeping my tank pristine. One did die and everything survived without any issues.
  19. I agree boiling kalk paste works extremely well, but if you can find a peppermint shrimp that will eat them then that is much easier. I don't know if this helps you at all, but mine only come out at night. I never see them unless I get out the red light and start looking.

    hmm...hadn't thought about the UV sterilizer and the bio-pellets together. I actually already bought a UV sterilizer it just isn't hooked up yet. Thanks Stephen for the offer though. I guess I'll go pick up some cleaner shrimp and see if maybe those help. If not then I'll hook up the UV sterilizer.
