  1. moving and need nano advice

    Hello, I am moving in the near future, and since I will be somwhere temporary for probably at least a month, I do not want to have to set up my 90 on the other end initially (in fact I want to reengineer it before I set it up anyway...). To that end, I would like to set up a nano that would...
  2. dab's 36 gallon bowfront

    A couple more pictures of my bubble coral and some green soft coral that I do not know of what kind (anyone?).
  3. dab's 36 gallon bowfront

    Hello, Subject line pretty much says it all. My plan for this aquarium is to move the current fish and the bubble coral over to a new one that I am a few weeks away from having set up. Then I am going to get some nice peaceful fish and some more soft corals and have a good bit of soft coral...
  4. evaporation rate question

    Hello, My continuing work on getting a new 90 gallon setup continues. I still await my light fixture (which has shipped, but now that it has I wish I had selected two day shipping which I usually do rather than ground :? ). While I am waiting, however, I have the setup running. It seems that...
  5. Charley's Angel

    Fortunately, here in North Palm Beach we got one feeder band early Friday morning as the system was passing over Cuba and nothing else. I spent most of Friday night doing business with my counterpart in Orlando who gave me a literal blow by blow of the winds hour by hour (2100 or 2200 was when...
  6. mud or sand in sump

    Hello, On IT BBSs sometimes it is impolite to ask a rehashed question that could start a flame war. If I am doing that, I appologize... Anyway, rather than sit here on the midnight shift, in South Florida, watching feeder bands from a massive hurricane come in on the radar, I figured I would...
  7. new setup lighting anemone and clam

    Thanks all for the replies. Intelligent discussion is exactly what I was after and what you have provided. Now I just have to get busy and order some lighting. Ain't cheap...
  8. new setup lighting anemone and clam

    Hello, My interest in my new setup is twofold. First, I would like to obtain an anemone for a couple of percula clowns I already have in an existing tank. I am also interested in keeping clams. Other corals/fish/whatever will be added such as are compatible with these. My question is the...
  9. Metal Halide positioning and setup

    Not bad at all... I am sitting here thinking "now why didn't I think of that?". Might be a good way to put a shelf to house some aquarium related stuff at the same time. Thanks.
  10. Metal Halide positioning and setup

    Hello, I am posting this to DIY for lack of a better place jumping out at me on the topics available... I am in process of setting up a new display aquarium, designed principally around the needs of tridacnid clams and an anemone for a couple of percula clowns I have in my current display. The...
  11. of darwin, a bubble coral, and a tang

    Hello, Last week I decided to add to my aquarium for the first time in a few months, and took my wife along to assist in the picking out of what to get. She (mostly) and I chose a bubble coral of maybe four inches in diameter and a juvenile yellow tang of about an inch and a half. At that time...
