  1. the colony has been successfully rehomed in 1 piece
  2. they are best kept in nanos for a few reasons. #1 they are super tiny...if they are in a 40 you may have trouble finding them to see them. #2 they are super tiny ...which makes them easy prey for larger fish and inverts (the sexy shrimp is a tic-tac to a wrasse) #3 they are incredibly slow...(see #2) they are cool but definitely a invert best suited to a nano IMNSHO. but with no predatory tank mates ....sure...but see #1... let me paint the picture: guest: "hey cool tank" tank owner: "yeah, did you see all our real cool sexy shrimp?" guest: "no" tank owner: " see theres one....and....um....there is another" guest: "where?" tank owner: "there" guest:"where?" tank owner:"THERE!" guest: "not seeing them" tank owner: "******* forget it" (that is all assuming the tank owner can even find them)

    GHA rock

    no more gha but i can make you a gha rock....i have tap water the lta is lower than i wanted him....he and my elegance coral were battling it out...moved the elegance it is quite strange to see 4 clowns hosting in one anemone! have you target fed him yet ?
  4. I know you would give it a good home Dave, and that is all I really want for it....looks like you will get a emerald crab and a lawnmower blenny as they have setup shop in the colony and I cannot get them out. as stated the lower levels are pretty much dead as the top bock all light to them and some of the top is bleaching out but I reall need a home for it asap, I am sure we can work something out
  5. so did you go off on the ATS research/build after we discussed it that one day? I mocked one up on a nasty 75 gallon tank and it cleared everything up in 3 days! May need some more reservations ... might be celebrating a new job here shortly
  6. slightly smaller than the size of one's fist (depending on hand size) smaller than a tennis ball but larger than a golf ball the size of a koralia 2/3? approx OH and there is a baby (slmost dime sized) fluorescent green discosoma/Actinodiscus mushroom on the back of the rock similar to these here:
  7. my wife loves her invert tanks...well MOSTLY inert (the gobies make it where I cannot call them completely invert tanks). she was pissed when the new wrasse massacred a peppermint shrimp in our main tank...
  8. what powerheads do you have? looks like a power head scrape to me...my hogfish got one once
  9. Wow DAVE! it has been a while!...where have you been....you still have that sea apple?
  10. how about a few mushrooms? or a couple heads of trumpet?

    GHA rock

    i might have a tiny bit of gha left...i doubt it but I'll look...hows the carpet? still roaming?
  12. ouch is right!....I am tempted to get the one in dallas and sell it locally....**** these tx summers and halides
  13. there is one in dallas (grand prairie) on crailgslist (the guy wanted 300 I talked him down to $250. as for the local one...it is gone...(it is in the back of my car )
  14. I agree, however, I simply no longer have the room for it
  15. will trade for a fish small frag or anemone...need it gone asap as I have no room for it...if noone comes for it it will be reduced to live rock rubble for my overflows.
  16. well when you frag stuff you generally do it out of water....it will be pissed off but it should be ok
  17. you can buy RO/DI water almost anywhere...if you want premixed saltwater you will pay though the nose....it is cheaper to get ro/di and a bucket of salt... and if you have a 120g buy an RO/DI unit....trust me you will need it.....and skip the canister filter....go sump
  18. uh no...my 135g was far from weak in the glass department, it is all based on engineering and design, rimless tanks have no centerbrace
  19. is there anyway to "cut out the middleman" and buy directly from the manufacture (no markup) nevermind...answered my own question
  20. har har har my tank cracked because the original center brace broke when the tank was full and was then fixed ...THAT initial stress (of it being full of water and having no center brace) did it in... but yes obviously draining it is the better (best) choice...but this also isn't a 6' tank we are talking about here and the new tank is doing fine mike.
  21. awe what do you want and what can you afford...i have tons of stuff
  22. is the bottom tempered glass?
