More Pics Posted Here are more pics. Yes, I know I can make more if I part. Some of the Corals you could get more than 100 bucks. But, is like giving up your children and let the twins be separated, lol. I am going to Guatemala and manage some construction projects there. Here a few more pics

URGENT Relocation Sale of GREAT NANO Dear MR friends I have to relocate out of the country for a great opportunity, and I have to give up the reefing while I am there. That means that I have to sell off my nano tank It is over 2 yrs old mature and with some incredible corals in it. 12 Gallon...

if you have worms in your tank, they bore into the live rock. just like in the great escape... the dirt from the holes have to go somewhere, lol. That happens to be the top of your rocks. Use a turkey baster to blow it... and let it settle down.

I am going there from Staten Island... so if anyone on the way needs a ride, and you have wings... let me know. PM me and I will send you my Cell #

What can I bring? Dessert perhaps?

I have the saphire aquatics 12G nano skimmer, in my opinion it works very well. It take out lots of green tea from my tank every day. you have to tune it. But once it gets going it is a decent lil skimmer. I've had it for about a year and it works very well.

If your parameters are good, and you said they were, do a 10% water change. That won't change the parameters of your water that much. Make sure that when you are doing the water change you have plenty of buckets. Make sure that the water that you replace is about as close to your system water...

Wow, I still remember when they had the GRAND opening of the store on 5th ave near 34th St. What's next? No more tokens for the subways? Damm I feel old all of a sudden :sick:

wow, I know I am still sort of a newbie in here, but one thing I know for sure. And that is to wear gloves when I am adjusting corals, moving rocks, etc. Paly's are about the most dangerous things in our tanks, I was reading about their toxin, and found out just how nasty they are. I was...

When it comes to a reef tank, you are better off curing your LR in your tank, it might take some time, but you are better off than curing in a bucket.. bringing it to your tank and then shocking the tank and waiting for it to cycle. As for the LED's, the main gimmick of them is that they are...

I like to open the tube... and smell it... ohhh I guess we're talking about a different kind of glue party? damm, me and my big mouth:pimp:

the film is definitely protein scum, because your skimmer wasn't working. Do you have a canister filter for your system?

WOW Awi... amazing before and after pics. When I started, way before I knew of such a thing as manhattan reefs... I was guilty of using tap water. I thought it was coraline algae... but it was cyanobacteria growing all over my rocks. I work in water treatment now, and one thing I can tell you is...
