    Socalireefs lack of participation/activity

    Reddit as a forum is a terrible mishmash. It is simply open source and has plenty of apps available to it that can make it ergonomic for the user. It's apps allow it functionality that the website alone only is a database for the client program.

    Asterina stars gone wild

    I'm not sure what the rate which an asterina population decimated due to the presence of a harlequin shrimp, but while i have had mine for over a month and is still alive i question whether it is actually making any sort of impact. My wife wants to make jewelry out of the numbers we have in our...

    Socalireefs lack of participation/activity

    You are absolutely correct.... ...about the use of fb over generic internet forums. It is due to ergonomic accessibility, but not anything to do with function or form. It used to be that any forum could be created using any generic forum builder, or a .phpbb version or similar, and within a...

    You are correct. I cited *MAS as examples,but stated that the consensus of the forum has established those as a standard. They do not have to be. They should not be in relation to their disassociation to the board.

    Socalireefs lack of participation/activity

    My main complaint about the fb groups is that there is absolutely no structure, categorization, or formatting. And to boot, while there is no limit on the private messaging, depending on the user's settings, there is a higher chance that a private message will not be received unless both users...

    Socalireefs lack of participation/activity

    I understand that you have your opinion, but the problem is, you are already knocking this idea. I'm not saying that it has to be IEMas or SCMAS. I'm saying this would be a board of members from PR/SCR and would occur as a monthly meetup specifically at hobby related locations. Auctions do...

    Socalireefs lack of participation/activity

    While they are two separate entities, they can both benefit eachother by direct integration. By incorporating a responsible board of members who would establish a meetup with auctions that would bring a portion of proceeds to the board would limit the number of FS threads and increase revenue...

    Socalireefs lack of participation/activity

    I understand that this forum feels that Friday meets are the bees knees and ihop is appropriate enough, but a large, active board of supervises that market monthly meetups at hobby related locations have been known to benefit the group as a whole. I've brought this up on multiple occasions and...

    List of best SoCal LFS

    Aquasd is pretty sick for corals, and pet emporium nearby has a pretty nice selection of fish. Going west down the 10 from you : shillington's (calimesa) has very healthy copperbands when they are in stock (call in advance) and scarlet legged hermit crabs. Ocean aquatics (redlands) will...

    Asterina stars gone wild

    Harlequins are such a beautiful addition both functionally as well as aesthetically, but as you have those larger stars you want, i would find out of you can get credit for it from your store or trade it. Eventually i will have to do the same with mine, but i am unsure how i will catch it, as...

    What do you guys run in your nano?

    I recommend siporax, especially for nanos, over ceramic. I also like running purigen or chemipure,as well as a decent magnetic fuge light and some ulva for your pods.

    Clown doesn't host anemone

    I have two aquacultured that have never figured it out. It does happen. Pointing an isolated spotlight in a dark tank for several hours at the rbta will also sometimes work, but the strainer is one of the only methods that also works.

    Frogspawn heads falling off

    Check your salinity and your parameters. When euphyllia get stuck in a brackish lagoon or an estuary condition they drop their heads.

    Whats wrong with my sps?

    Always double check your salinity as well. It's amazing how staked up one can get in the "important" stuff, and forget to check the basics.

    Nick's Inamorata Nano (25g)

    Tank is now setup in the office. I really dig this light despite having a terrible controller interface. It is a shame they never revised it.
