My xenia also seems very sensitive to flow. If they aren't getting enough, they stop pumping and their color darkens. I changed my K2 pump direction just a little and they perked up almost immediately.

I think this is a scam. Ignore it, IMHO.

I just picked up a 55 gallon acrylic aquarium with stand, light, and some miscellaneous freshwater stuff from Goodwill for $50. It has the standard freshwater undergravel filter. Would it be at all effective if it used water instead of air? Just curious.
-
I bought mine from aquapod.com. They work excellently and were quite reasonable.

The gorilla nips are opening up already. Very nice. The new 265 gallon tank is gorgeous. We really enjoyed talking to both of you. Thanks again!

I wasn't worried - I was hoping. I had some of these until I bought a spiny box puffer. I was worried cause the puffer wouldn't eat anything. Then I noticed all my starfish, crabs, and snails had disappeared. THEN he started eating mysis and frozen brine. I was hoping to get some little starfish going again. They never caused me a problem that I was aware of.
-
Laura, did I get any of the starfish?

I have a Niger trigger that has drawn blood a few times. He isn't afraid of anything. One day he is gonna bite me and I'll give him the hammer treatment.

Is that tank overstocked?

1) My water quality has improved marginally, I think. 2) I just started running a skimmer again. 3) Still waiting (and hoping) for better results. Seems like my algae "crashed" maybe. It seems to be regrowing now. Jeez, how good a reefer can I be if I can't grow algae?

I only have T5 lighting so I am not doing SPS corals.
-
what's a tennis coral look like?
-
I am bringing a 48" Coralife CF light, some decorative dead coral pieces (real coral - not fake), and a bottle of CO2 with gauge (20 lb I think). I am looking for a T5 light for a 30 gallon, some sand maybe, and a few pieces of dead base rock and anything else I find interesting. What are you bringing?

The UT website has the marked "TBD". Probably it'll depend on what happens at the Shootout this weekend.

It's finding that "good source" that is the problem, I think. My rock in the back yard has not been exposed to any chemicals or fertilizers. It's only been out there a couple months. Fishypets, how does rock baking in the sun trap PO4, NO3 and NO4? This issue is like most all the others. Everybody has a different opinion and there do not seem to be any definitive answers.
-
Excellent. Thanks.
-
I really liked your advice about bleaching the rock outside. I have several pieces that have been in a rock garden for 3 or 4 months and are white as bone. I want to add them to my 72gal as I think I am short of rock. Should I dip them, soak them or in any other way prepare them for immersion?

I have been to Kempner a couple of times to an auction on the main road through town. There was a german restaurant next door. Is that still there? I apologize for hijacking the thread.

I use the Premium Kit from Aquahub.com. It works great and was very simple to install.
-
A list and pictures would be nice.

Welcome back Brooks. Did you ever move?

My first entry! No doubt about it. I have to get a better camera.

Lights are NOT cheap anywhere you buy them. I should say, GOOD lighting is not cheap. If a deal seems too good to be true, that's because it is.
