Thanks Joe that is good to hear...

I had a little boxing match with a mantis and a pair of tweezers one night. It was entertaining trying to catch him the first hour or so. Then I got ticked and stuck some epoxy over the hole and made him a nice little TOMB!!! If there are two exits then try two globs. Seemed to do the...

I have also seen these advertised at Jeff's Exotics in LA. It seems to be priced well and I have considered ordering one too. If anyone has tried one I would be interested to hear how it went.

And we are counting to ten before we touch the key board for a little "time-out"

The CPR debate...This is new....NOT.... haha, I have a CPR on my 80 gallon tank. I do however back it up with a 30 gallon refugium. It does pull out a lot of gunk and I am pretty please with its performance. I think it is a little small for my system and didn't really change it just to see what...

I agree with Jawbone. I would make sure I had a good size pump in it to keep it moving well. I keep my water in the garage too. In the winter I have been mixing my water a little extra salty then dilute it with a couple ptchers of hot freshwater to bring it to temp. I am sure you could do the...

Hope things clear up for you... I had something that went wrong in my tank and I never really pinned it down. Like you all the parameters seemd to be right but the animals were not acting like they normally do. Frogspawn wasn't open and my softies didn't open up. I ended up losing a couple...

I kinda like the bumble bee snails. IMO they can get in the small spaces that the bigger snails can't. I have also had about 6 bumble bee snails for over two years. The turbos don't seem to last as long. Anyway, I would suggest a few. I will probably get more...

Some of you guys have Wayyyyyyyy to much free time Ernie, I am back! Did ya miss me

The author of "The Conscientious Marine Aquarist" Bob Fenner says they are not worth the money generally. He also points out that they can kill benificial microbes as well as the bad. Funny I just read through this section last night during dinner.

I have been reading it and I like it alot. It is written so that you can stomach the info and a little funny too. No pictures to speak of but very good info. I would recommend it.

I have a blueline bulb that a bought from Champion Lighting. I added a 10k PC and an Actinic PC 55 watt bulb. I really like the color. You can see pics on my website, and a breakdown of the equipment used. [ April 02, 2002: Message edited by: HARRISON ]</p>

Hey Guys, long time no see!!! I have only ordered stuff on-line through Champion lighting. They made a small mistake on a lighting order that was no big deal. I ordered some halides and upgraded to a 10k bulb. They sent the lights as they would come "stock" and added a 10k to the order. Simple...

Go to the feed store and buy an electric fence. Put it up around the parimeter of the tank. You might also want to pick up a cattle prod in case they get too close. Kids can be such a pain. If you don't get them trained quick you may have to sell them. The bad thing is that the pet store will...

Nice work Cheese...
