    An Apex controller is great for those of us who travel a lot for work. That is, until your wife removes the fan you were using to keep the tank cool in the afternoons because she was feeling warm....

    Accidently dropped my two largest SPS colonies on the ground while trying to trim off dead branches. No longer have any large colonies. Not a good month for my tank...

      hahaha you're probably right. The whole time I was thinking "don't let it drop, don't let it drop, don't let it.... DOH!"

    Did anyone else know they're opening an Aquarium in Austin in Nov? Or am I just misinformed? http://www.austinaquarium.com/

      They probably want fish that have already traveled and acclimated. If that's the case doesn't it seem more responsible than just shipping more fish and having some die off in transit? You guys are assuming a lot here. Why not keep an open mind and check them out?

      They probably don't have wholesale accounts because they have to many issues importing illegal species. I'm assuming only the known reports and their previous actions.

      Looks like a beast! Will be curious to know what PAR you get with it.

  9. Gig 'em @ NDstructible

    Every time I feed my peppermints one of them has babies and it's insane feeding frenzy. I have too many of these guys for a 50 gallon :/

    Got a nice tax refund. Now, should invest it wisely like a good boy, or buy some sweet corals and MP10's?

      Yeah I caught quite a few, and a lot of BIG'O preggo females. I'm not sure I can keep all of these in my tank, so PM me if you're willing to 'adopt' some
