  1. My 180g Build Thread - Finally!

    I remember visiting Bob's place and seeing all the solomon disks in his living room. He also made the reactors in his garage! Nice to see you again, James!
  2. some eye candy (borbonius, ventralis)

    I'm thinking about getting some ventralis anthias and was wondering if you guys had an update? I know that they are real delicate. Thanks.
  3. Centropyge joculator photos

    Nice bicolor :D
  4. Is this "true blue xenia"?

    Here's an updated pic of my colony of cespitularia:
  5. How do you know how many heatpacks to use for shipping?

    I would still use a minimum of 2, imo, unless you were shipping within CA. If you were shipping to another state back east, with temps in the low 40's, 2 would be preferable.
  6. How do you know how many heatpacks to use for shipping?

    Hmm, I don't have a tang in my tank.... :D
  7. How do you know how many heatpacks to use for shipping?

    I dont know about a formula, but with that much water, I would use at least 2-3 heat packs. I would also use a large igloo cooler. Way worth it in the long run and is vrtually indestructible. Are you shipping the black tang?
  8. Baby Regal

    Karl, I would go to the store and buy some clams. I've heard a nice, open clam may entice the regal to feed. Good luck with the fish.
  9. Skimmer choice.

    Take a look at the Tunze 9010. I just got one and this small skimmer just plain kicks ass! I think it produces 600+lph of air!
  10. Please help me identify this unusual frag.

    Wow, looks real neat. It could be a gemmifera? I am not sure though.
  11. a pic of my "real" tank as of yesterday night...

    Nice Chip! Your tank would be real as opposed to who's? :D
  12. Thanks for the help. Caught the FOXFACE!!!

    I'd prefer to deep fry him myself :D Nah, he should be fine. That's why you use a barbless hook. It will prevent the damage caused by a barbed one and should slip out easily. If he doesn't go for the hook at first, you may want to starve the tank for a couple days. Make sure you keep an eye...
  13. Thanks for the help. Caught the FOXFACE!!!

    Use the smallest hook you can find and cut off the barb, bait it with shrimp, and voila! I am dead serious about this. I use this method to catch all my fish. Do it and you will be amazed at the effectiveness of it.
  14. The Genicanthus Thread!

    LMAO!!! :D
  15. New acquisition from the Bay Area Farmer's Market

    The Maxima went for $180 I believe.
