I would turn your MP40 up to 100%. I never worried about pointing that pump directly at a coral myself. It's fine. Kinda needed if you want to chop up some Monti's IME. I found a good way to rotate them was to turn one pump off for a few hours a day, then have both on, then turn the other pump...

You are looking for an auto top off unit. If you are only gone a few days a 5g reservoir would be adequate for you. I used to use the 5g water change jugs and switch them out, but any food safe container will do it. The cheaper auto top off units will just operate off of a pair of float...

What would you want to rent it out for a few days? I don't mind driving to Fullerton to pick it up. I still have 11 more days on my acclimation cycle but if we could plan something for after that would be great. I need to get back down that way to go to Bottle Logic anyways

Thank you. I saw that, but try to stay local when I can. Love BRS though

Thank you!

Does anyone local have a PAR meter they rent out? My old club in PNW had one member could check out. Does this club have something like that? I just set up a narrow reflector on my Kessil and I want to PAR map my tank in about 12 days from now. If anyone has one they want to rent out so I...

BIOTA is a company that breeds manderin fish. Their fish accept frozen and pellet food as it is what they were raised on.

Have you tried BIOTA?

I bred RBTA's for many years. What I would suggest you do on a tank that large is to freeze some water bottles. Forget ice cubes. You need something bigger. A water bottle will work. Also get a fish net, easier if it is big. Put the water bottle on the foot of the nem. Right on the edge...

Has anyone here used the narrow reflector they sell for the 360x? I ordered one, mainly so I could cut the glare from the light while sitting at my desk. I am reading that the reflector can increase the PAR of the light by up to 3x. If you have used the reflector did you go through the...

19 years in the hobby and LOVING it myself. Homie you picked one of the harder beginner corals to start with. Not bad, but it's a thing. I would get that off of the sand bed ASAP. You can either wedge it inbetween two rocks and let it grow there, or take some super glue gel (I find the 2-3...

I get all that too, but for me when I am buying a coral for my tank, I want to have an idea of what it is going to look like when I am sitting in my recliner, sipping my bourbon and admiring my tank. I don't wear coral glasses when I look at the tank. I don't have my tank wrapped in film. So...

I ain't mad. Super nice guy. I get businesses have to do their thing and I might not be their target customer. As a customer though, I spend the $150 on a frag that I can't see the actual color. Not mad at all though. He can do business however he likes. Dude was super nice.

Never out of the game. I was living in a different state. It hasn't caught on in Oregon yet. In Oregon they use insane amounts of UV light on specific tanks to generate different colors. Same doctored photographs with shooting in blue and switching the white balance to yellow as they do here...

I guess the silly name thing was taken.

The glasses thing cracked me up the first time I saw it. I was at LAX Aquarium, right after I moved back to Long Beach. I took pictures and texted them to my friends. We laughed and laughed... then I was worried I wouldn't fit in here anymore. Glad I do. Kinda reminds me of when they used to...

You guessed it. I really wanted to buy a few of the acro's they had there, but I couldn't see them without the film, so I got some beers at Bottle Logic and drove back to Long Beach. Long trip to come home empty handed.

I went to a LFS today and was very surprised to see a film covering the glass on the SPS tanks. It appeared to be the orange filter that people use for photography. They had it completely covering several tanks. Is this getting common now? 19 years in the hobby now, first time seeing it.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I have clean Cheato in Long Beach, I don't want the trigger though. I grow Cheato in my pod cultures. Happy to fill up a bag for you. I can leave it on the porch if you are concerned about meeting someone. I am by CSULB
