  1. Biocube.

    I have a biocube, I ditched the bioballs and just put in a ton of filterfloss which I can easily throw out and replace. Wal-Mart has bags of it for $1.00
  2. Beginner 40g breeder! Need help

    Yea, perhaps the 40g is pushing it for a mandarin. More like a pipe dream. I would stick to other gobies, and clownfish if I were you. Check out the firefish.
  3. Beginner 40g breeder! Need help

    I am a huge fan of Gobies and Clowns. Firefish is a cool addition as well. I bet you can get a mandarin in there.
  4. Beginner 40g breeder! Need help

    Also, check out the Marketplace for tanks, equipment and coral frags. I think I saw a 30g with stand on there this morning for $60.
  5. Beginner 40g breeder! Need help

    Hey Dan! This is the best way to get info. 40breeder is a great size. I would start with 30-40lbs of live rock + Saltwater + Sand + Powerheads and get the cycle going. After a week or two you can throw in your light (T5 I am assuming) and a clean up crew (CUC) if the parameters start to...
  6. Stromatella Snails Spawning

    ahhh Ahhh, mine do that! Thought it was waste though. Learn something new everyday.
  7. What's a good Camera w/ Macro lense..

    My input So, I recently purchased Nikon D3000 ~$500. It came with the kit lens 18-55mm. With the kit lens, I was able to get some pretty good pictures of corals. Corals, for the most part, do not move and are easy to capture. Fish are quicker and may require a faster lens, or a camera with...
  8. Chemchef's New 34 Solana

    Great shots, always harder for me with fish because you need a faster shutter speed than coral. For me I have to burn up the ISO to about 1600. You got some really great shots, you using a macro lens ?
  9. Aquabacs' 50 Gallon Azooxanthellae Tank build

    Just browsing your tank thread for the first time :-/ All I can say is, they could do a "Planet Earth" in your tank
  10. MY 20G first time trying to take pictures

  12. I-Phone 4 Or Droid X From Verizion???

    okay, I have an iphone 4. Before that I had the original iphone, and it still works. I got the iphone 4 because of the video, front camera, facetime, and picture quality. Both phones are great, the droid X and iphone 4. I will say that I am 100% happy with my purchase of the iphone 4. I am...
  13. New Par38 20k lightbulbs

    I am curious how that turns out. I just bought there UVL PC-R Bulbs for the Biocube. Power Compacts with a reflector on the top half of the bulb. So far insane results. I actually believe I saw my GSP push out a base-layer in one day of light...
  14. Oceanic Biocube 14 Setup

    Nanotuners PC-R ! ! ! Nanotuners PC-R INSTALLED ! Sorry about the blurry pictures, I was more excited about changing the bulbs than focusing on the shot. Also, the lights were just turned on, so the corals are still sleeping. But you get the idea ! This is with stock coralife, and then the...
