:ttiwwop: You're about a week ahead of me. Would like to see how it's going. I got diatom bloom for a couple of days, brown spots everywhere, then disappeared. Some green algae, few spots of hair algae.

I would be interested in the red ricordia at the bottom of this pic. Maybe a couple of of the groups: You around over the weekend? I'm near Yorba Linda (Placentia).

A few critters finally!! Well it's been running for just over 2 weeks now, got the ammonia and nitrate spike (very mild) and nitrates bumped a bit but still under 20. So I did a 10% water change and thought I would pick up some CUC members and let them go to work on the algae that's starting to...

Are you really posting an item for sale on another's for-sale thread? Do you or the OP have a chiller? I have $200 for a good one, otherwise will buy new. Thanks!

Thanks Mike. We visited three more LFS today, from LB to HB, been to a dozen of them now. Getting a feel for what kinds of things are appealing, who has what, and what they are like to deal with. Have seen some really cool stuff and met some nice people that are more than willing to help. Not...

Progress Report Finished the hood off this week. White enamel on the inside and stained and finished to match the base cabinet. Got a killer deal on a NAC6 skimmer so it's in the sump but I'm not running it yet 'till the cycle gets further along. Still no nitrite or nitrate spike. I found a...

Very nice. Man, that depth of field is VERY narrow isn't it? Wow. Great color though, and detail. Beautiful!

The colors are fantastic. Everything looks so healthy!

Thanks Gino. So, I searched on GSP and Xenia...Green Star Polyps and Pulse Coral. Seems the former grows like mad, hard to get rid of. Hmmm...no wonder you're willing to give some away. :loco: The Xenia does sound interesting though. I think I may have seen an example or two at a fish store.

Progress Report Rocks are in, water is in, substrate in, temp is up, SG is spot-on, light canopy is built, got some live rock too. The sump sock filtered out all the silt within hours, was clear in short order. Spent all weekend setting up, and waiting for my little Rodi unit to make water...

An inspiration. Very nicely done.

Thanks Chad. And thanks for a great deal on a tank. I know you wanted to clear out some of that old junk for your store remodel. Howzit coming along? I'll be down for some frags soon. :nod: Yes, built the stand, even made the 'shaker' doors, which I have never done before. I've built a couple...

I'm not sure what either is but I'm sure I would want them. Thanks! Will PM you when I get a little further along. The water flow out of the rodi unit is a little better tonight, guess it just needed to get some water through it to break it in. Tank is about half full now, maybe tomorrow it...

Nice forum, just found it. Great that it's all local. I'm an old timer, been in the hobby since before most of you were born. Last marine tank was way back in the 80's. State of the art then was a super heavy duty undergravel filter and a HOB powerfilter. Once you got your bio-load maxed out...
