    I've been moving alot more stuff, lately, without using gloves. I have no sense of what i am grabbing if i am not using bare hands. It is a funny compromise.

    My pair of Ocellaris Amphiprion Idiotus... Redemptus

    Well, the problem with getting clownfish these days is also the great thing. They're successfully bred, born and brought up in aquaculture. But their biological impulses are not always natural. So many of these AC clowns will not host an anemone. I've had 3 Ocellaris Amphiprion, and the two I...

    is there only 2 settings on the 32 biocube LED?

    There are upgrade/mod/retrofit kits. They are expensive and most folks choose to just replace the hood with an open top light. However the kits do exist, and if you're a minor tech/gear head, it is not very difficult. I had the jbj version, and made some custom blue light and Magenta mods...

    Top Lids for your tank?

    How much IS the cost of your lid? As impressive of a build that fits into a custom product like that, it really bugs me when they have no baseline on the costs for what they offer.

    How to replace a ballast on a TEK

    Nice job, Ev. Little trick i learned on stripped screw heads from doing hundreds of elrctrical outlets at a time, is a multi head oscillating tool. Get a metal cutting head, and stick it right over top. Turn it on, and gently press onto it and cut a new slot. Goes by very fast and will avoid...

    OGA 20g Nano_Reef

    It is indeed a spear with a rubber band gun because they flex under s water just as good as above. It's horrible, but it works.

    Dragonette quarantine question

    Well, technically ich isn't going to be carried by them unless they're slime coat is truly damaged. They're a stinky fish. So, if you want to pull yours out of the water (delicately) by hand it will stink, and so will your hand, and it should be a sign that it is just fine. I only add a...

    Cleaning filter socks WITHOUT bleach.

    Btw, the skin bleaching is, typically, only very temporary. After a night, they will go back to looking normal.

    Cleaning filter socks WITHOUT bleach.

    (ran out of room for embedded pictures) This is what they look like after the washing machine is run in a heavy duty cycle, no detergent and no bleach, after two completely run empties. I should have just run the delicate, as that is more than adequate for a good clean, but i wanted to see...

    Cleaning filter socks WITHOUT bleach.

    I do not enjoy disposable products, and when i learned that some filter socks were DESIGNED to be reused, i went looking through Amazon for reviews from individuals who had reused theirs. The 200 micron ones that I chose were $40 for 8. While some folks change theirs once a week, i tend to...

    Which LFS stores are you going to this weekend?

    I went to ocean aquatics to pick up some tisbe pods, phyto, and cobalt foods. I always go in thinking that i will have a quick visit no more than 15 minutes, but end up talking for over an hour. Sweetest store owner in the world. Really beautiful ricordia and some lps right now.
