  1. I have another Sherman RBTA for sale. Split over a month ago. Well healed, eating, and probably 6-8 inches across when expanded. It is ready to go and in quarintine so would like to get rid of ASAP Will reduce normal selling price to $80. Thanks
  2. just a suggestion but you might want to rethink the above... We all know that this is an expensive hobby...but arguably one of the most important aspects of a reef tank is lighting. $60 is high for a light bulb however the average MH lifespan is 12 months. That is only $5 per month... There are many ways to save money related to reefkeeping....but for a successful reef tank I think lighting is one area you might want to "splurge" on. Just my opinion...
  3. I would recommend having someone with saltwater experience check on you tank. You can have a neighbor check on it and feed the fish daily but I would recommend a "professional" at least once a week. They can clean the skimmer, do a water change, look for potentional problems, etc. I have used Misti with Sea Clearly maintenance (one of the ARC sponsers) and was very pleased. She would also be available if the neighbor noticed something was wrong. Cheap insurance and peace of mind in my opinion.
  4. These kinds of bags are used for tube feeding and not IV fluids. The tubing is rigid except for a 6 inch section that is soft and designed to go in a "roller" style pump similar to the BRS peristaltic pumps. These do not come with a flow regulator and may be difficult to fine tune the flow.
  5. I hear that Tyree is coming out with an exotic and rare strain of oscars and albino catfish. Might be worth checking out....
  6. golden midas blenny...great fish!
  7. All of hydro's recommendations are good. Hard to tell from the video if it is green hair algae (GHA) or bryopsis. I battled with what I thought was GHA for several months without success. Tried the same things you have. mcallahan came over and thought it might be bryopsis (even though it looks more typical of GHA). Raised my Mg from 1350 to 1600 over a week and it disappeared almost overnight.
  8. Sorry you missed out Laura. That would be a switch...you buying something from me I'll add you to the "clone" list. At the current rate I am getting a split about every 3 months.
  9. Both are pending sale. Thanks for all the interest. I have several on a waiting list for the next clones as well.
  10. Let me know when you are ready. I'll be happy to save the next one for you.
  11. sale pending to Wizardx322 one still available
  12. Not sure what the secret is. I was feeding mine silversides once a week and it split. I got worried that they would outgrow my tank so I stopped feeding them for a few months and they split. They seem to have a mind of their own.
  13. Checking interest for the sale of 2 Sherman Rose Bubble Tip Anemone (RBTA) These came from Mickeyw43 in Dallas and are very hardy, maintain their bright rose color, and split frequently. Mine have been very happy and have never wandered. You can do a search for Sherman RBTA for more info. I have had mine since March and now I have 3. Serious inquiries only. I will not sell to anyone that has not had their tank up an running for at least 6 months and you must have adequate lighting (MH, T5, VHO, or LED). Selling price $100 each

  15. I have one of each of the ornamental shrimp (peppermint, cleaner, and fire) in my mixed 57G for over a year and have never had a problem. The cleaner is always out in the open and the fire and peppermint are a little reclusive at times with the fire being the hardest to find.
  16. Shane at Fishy Business can also help.
  17. There is a Neptune sponsor forum on RC that is very helpful

  21. I live in round rock and have a dremmel that you are welcome to borrow for the weekend. PM me if interested. Caferacermike did the same thing for me and it was so helpful that I eventually bought one...though I have not had much opportunity to use it....
  22. Anyone else having problems with the special grade sand clumping? Does the sugar fine stuff clump also?
