cheap refractometers can give you a false sense of security. They need to be calibrated before each use. You get what you pay for. Usually a hydrometer is off but it can be consistantly off, so if you know weather it reads high or low, you can adjust for it. If you get the refractometer it's...

Wow, what's up with that kproxy? You guys have all the tricks. This site is great, there is room for everybody.

We dago people are drama free. I always lurk around here but don't participate much, very nice of you to make us feel welcome. I'm sure the site will be back soon. It's nice to have a place that lets us talk about another site without getting all competative, there is enough room for...

I don't know, that's funny though this is the first place I came to see if anyone knows whats up. I'm going to try to e-mail blake if I can find his addy.

Sounds like a frogspawn morph. Thats one of the trade names that used to be used for frogspawns years ago. There have been some really neon green "glowing" euphilias being imported lately.

Just bag each fish seperately in big enough bags WITH OXYGEN (your lfs can help with this) and bag each coral seperately as well. Then keep live rock wet(wrapped with wet newspapers or towels), and bring as much of the old water as possible(At least 60%imo). Package them in styrofoam boxes and...

I've done plenty of rubber coral systems, these tanks will be full blown reef tanks, that is set in stone. From there it's up to me to decide the livestock. I can build the tank of my dreams on someone else's nickel- and do it twice. Two identical systems with something special to set them...

Hello, I run an aquarium maintenance and installation business in San diego and I am planning two identical 400 gallon reef tanks to go in a business. They will be in two seperate buildings. The tanks and equipment will be Identical so I am looking for a way to make them distinct from each...

I didn't realize it was a nano. A tiny blue would take a while and they stress so much in small tanks. Maby someone could rent you a Kole tang for a few days. It is however not as hard to manage as people have been made to think. Not that you should keep it but if you thin it out regularly...

I have to disagree. In my experience, most common tangs, Blue especially will make quick work of this stuff. When it was legal I used to have to grow it in the sump to feed to tangs(because they loved it), they wouldn't let it grow in the display.
