  1. I would like to pick up a few sexy shrimp off the vivid group buy, but I read on there that they do best in nano tanks. I'm wondering if my 40 gallon will be too big for them. Thinking about getting three of them.
  2. We have some folding tables that we could use. They are 6 feet long. They are at my office, which isn't too far from Mark's place, but we would need someone to transport them, as they won't fit in our rent-a-car.
  3. We've never tried the three days of darkness, but we've heard good and bad things about it. Is there anything else you would take for now? Maybe some cash?
  4. Haha! They aren't ready to be fragged yet; I want them to get a few more polyps before start cutting them off. How are the ones that fell off doing? Ours are fully open every day and look great!
  5. We really need to set up our fuge and we need some chaeto. We would really like tp pick it up asap so if you have any to spare or sell, please let us know. Thanks!

    We loved our firefish. They always stayed together and even slept in the same little spot. They never attempted to jump either.
  7. Something happen with your tank?
  8. In the many things that I have built, not only with this hobby but others as well, you always get a better result when you do more than what you feel you should. I figured that there was plenty of surface area to hold the fan on my tank We all now how that turned out. So if you are going to mod the center brace you will get much better results doing it as meticulous as possible. Draining the tank and properly prepping the area is a lot less work then cleaning up the water and trying to find temp housing for your livestock. and buying a second light would be a lot cheaper than having to get a new tank set up again. It is your adventure so do as you will, but feel free to let us know if you need any help.
  9. Looking for a calcium reactor for our 55 gallon. Prefer to get the full setup to avoid having to piece it all together. If you have one, please let us know. Thanks!
  10. All of ours are looking awesome and they have only been in there for about an hour. We're up for another round!
  11. That thing looks scary! Ehh
  12. He's doing okay. He's starting to get pretty soar, as he bruised a couple ribs and hit his head on the stearing wheel. And of course, his back is hurting pretty bad. Innate, if you get a chance, can you forward me some contacts on the chiropractors that you know? I'll send you a PM. Thanks!
  13. We started them pretty low, or so I thought. I moved them a little lower last night, so I'll see how they do. They aren't bleaching any more. I think the two 175's and the 250 were too much for them. We are considering trading the 250 for another 175 depending on how they all start doing. Thanks for all the info.
  14. Yeah, I hate those sites too. You can't ever remember which ones you have been to because they are mirror images.

    Xenia

    No problem at all. Things have been a little crazy, so we probably wouldn't have been able to pick it up until this week anyway. Tomorrow should work okay for us. It just depends on how the hubby is feeling. If your close to 290 and 183, I can probably meet you somewhere around there after work (6ish). JLMK Thanks!
  16. I'm just ready for April to be over! Can someone share some of their luck with us? Yes, I am glad that Kaylon is okay too. He is hurting pretty bad today, but nothing that a little Vicodine can't help. lol Now, we get to deal with the insurance! Yeah!!!!

    Xenia

    We would love to get some xenia if you still have some. Is it Pom Pom by any chance?
  18. So, as most of you know, we had a major mishap with the tank earlier this month. Well, just when things seemed to be getting a little better, something else had to happen. My husband got t-boned this morning by some cracked out old lady that ran the red light. My husband drives a pretty big chevy truck and she was going so fast that his car spun around 6 times and he landed up on the medium under the 183 overpass by Paytin Gin. THANK GOD he is okay; just a little bruised and soar. Can April be over already, please?
  19. We currently have two 175watt 12K and one 250watt 12k metal halides on our 55 gallon. We noticed a bit of bleaching on some our sps peices, so we are beginning to wonder if we have too much light for our size tank. The wattage break down is 10.9 watts per gallon. So, what is the proper wattage per gallon? We have heard and read around 6 to 12 watts per gallon. Not really sure what to believe so we just wanted to get a general opinion.
  20. Ric, your whole tank could be covered in clams and I think you would have enough light to spare! Hope it is treating you well.
