Little bastards are starting to pop up all over. I was thinking about these... http://www.ebay.com/itm/MEGA-FORCEPS-HEMOSTATS-TOOL-S-STEEL-24-LONG-CURVED-/110933257427 Any other suggestions? Even though I'm sure these are just good to have in general. :)

...and let's say you got 4 pieces of glass cut for the baffles, and then you stacked the sheets of glass in the tank to keep them safe (ha ha), and then you put your skimmer in to measure where to put the first baffle, and then like an idiot you knocked the skimmer cup you forgot to take off...

Starting the build thread - still in progress but here's where I'm at! Upgrading from a 29g Biocube. Already outgrew it and while everything is growing and thriving, the glass has some clouding so it gives me a good excuse to upgrade. (My boyfriend said he knew it wouldn't be long :P) Already...

I picked up an emerald crab the weekend before last to try to take care of some algae. Mr. Crabs was awesome, even though he insisted on hosting my frogspawn. He ate a bunch of my problem areas. But then he killed one of my stomatellas... I caught him in the act. It was kind of cute how he...

Okay, here's the deal - mixed reef, 65g 36x18x24, not set up yet. I'm in analysis paralysis on lighting. I want LEDs, not T5 or MH. Options are: 2-3 Reefbar Pros, full spectrum, 36". They claim 120 PAR at 24" with two fixtures. Price: About $110 each. Con: have to use their own controller...

Was taking a look at this - the price seems pretty good, although you have to buy the solvent/glue and spend a bunch of time putting it together. Anyone done this? http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CCTDX7O

Was looking at these... the price is sure right, but looking for opinions. I'd probably go with 2-3 for a 36x18 tank. Or maybe swap one out for a 50/50 blue/white. http://www.21ledusa.com/aquarium_led_reefbar_pro_36_ultra_actinic_p/rbpua36.htm...

Guy at RAP said it's a duncan, just a different type... it's putting my other duncan to shame with how showy it is. Has about 15 heads, I couldn't resist. :) (Unless, of course, it's not a duncan... what do I know? I'm a noob!)

Have an issue with my Biocube's glass so time to upgrade! Looking for 40 breeder setup (tank w/ overflow, stand, sump, plumbing). Above all looking for something already drilled & bulkheads in. I'm 5'2" so stand can't be too tall. Thanks. :)

I'll be adding my final fish in a couple of weeks, and I want to get a pair of baby ocellaris. Anywhere around the valley a good place to get them? SPS Coral is closest to me but they mostly have fancy clowns. And I want healthy young'n's. :)

Built in overflow, custom stand, glass tank. It's really dirty. REALLY dirty. But when I was there tonight they offered it to me for 50 bucks just to get rid of it. It's too much project for me but maybe someone else wants to head to Canoga Park and check it out. :)

I want to buy the 1/2" circle flow assembly (and an elbow) and put it in this weekend but it would be like $21 for shipping from Marine Depot to get it here on Friday... any other options?

I just introduced fish #2, a small (1.25"ish) royal gramma. Prior to this I'd been spotfeeding my invisible YWG mysis and Spectrum pellets. Now he's being territorial (at least he's coming out) and the gramma is being shy so I need to give the little guy a better chance at being able to eat. I...

Looking for Apex VDM module... thanks!

Nah, I don't have the room, maybe someone else would be interested. http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv/fuo/4683753590.html

I started with a dead sand bed and would love to get a cup or two of sand from someone with an established tank with critters... I'll be at the frag swap this weekend to make it easy. :)

After talking to RapidLED they recommended (since it's easiest) swapping out the middle strip of LEDs in my setup to red, green, and UV to bring it closer to full spectrum. This will give me, strip by strip from the left to right side of the tank (it's just a Biocube so the strips are only about...

Picked this up several months ago but I just can't get into digital art and really prefer working with real media, even though this has 2048 levels of pressure sensitivity. http://smile.amazon.com/Wacom-Intuos-Creative-Stylus-CS500PB0/dp/B00ER52ES0/ It's had maybe an hour of use and comes with...

I finally got my first fish yesterday - a watchman goby (and his pistol shrimp buddy, who unfortunately got lost somewhere in the live rock :( ). How do you know when it's cool to add the next fish? How long should you wait?

Now that I have all the equipment for my tank (for now) I'm facing trying to manage all of the cords and timers. Please save me from just throwing up my hands and buying an Apex out of frustration and analysis paralysis. What are you non-controller reefers using to manage lights and timers...
