    75 Gallon Mixed Reef

    Figured it was finally time to post this lol. Been a rough ride. In later October/ early November, I got Bronchitis, Strep, and a Sinus Infection that put me out of comission for almost a full month. During this time, the tank suffered pretty badly. Had to leave it to my fiance to manage things...

    60 Gallon Cube

    So, I fell in love with cube tanks back when I had my 29g Biocube. Since then, I've had Aqueon tanks (4 and 8) and then switched to the Nuvo 8. Yet, no matter what I did, my craving for a nice cube just wouldn't subside! So, I got a call from a buddy, who was looking to get rid of this bad boy...

    A used metal halide fixture

    So, I picked up a 36" Metal Halide fixture from a friend in NJ reefer club. It's got two 175 watt bulbs, and two 96w PCs. All of the bulbs need to be replaced, and I don't know the brand name of the fixture. How should I go about replacing them?

    Yay! :)

    So, I had my 10-12" GBTA in my Biocube for a few days. It was fully extended, and I didn't really like it, they are supposed to be more compact under the proper lighting. So, I moved it to my 55 under the 6 bulb t5 fixture. Within 20 minutes of being moved, it's tips started to look better, and...

    Cyano out-break.

    How do I get rid of it? It's taking over my 29g Biocube, as well as Bubble Algae. I'm going to pick up a few more Emerald Crabs for the Biocube to hopefully combat the Bubble Algae, but I'm at a loss for the Cyano. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    10 Gal Reef set-up

    So, I had a 10 gal set up that I had to break down and rebuild. My girlfriend and two children (One four, and the other 11 months) were trying to help daddy by "feeding the fish". Needless to say they over-fed the crap out of it. I had 5Lbs of Sand and 5Lbs of Crushed Coral that was just...

    Clownfish?

    So, my two clown fish are damn near inseparable. Does that mean they are starting to form the pair bond that will eventually lead to mating? I've seen the larger of the two charge the smaller and he almost right away turns submissive. Are these all good signs?

    A really good sand sifter

    So turns out, after I'd feed my fish a cube of frozen mysis and I'd leave for work, my gf and four year old son would wake up and feed them more mysis and a piss ton of flake food :frustrat:. Need a good sand sifter now. Opinions?
