I have about a quart size bag of chaeto available for free. Either that or it and all the little pods on it at that moment are going in the trash. And that would be sad. But you can be a hero. Hit me up before Friday; it's getting clipped that night or sooner if you save the pods.

Trying to decide between the three. The Bipartitus (Blue Star Leopard wrasse) and Geoffroyi (Potter's wrasse) are better looking but supposedly much harder to keep. The Negrosensis (Black Leopard wrasse) is not as colorful but is supposedly easier to keep. I have a 40 gallon tank with only...

I need to complete my QT setup and need the following: -Small powerhead: for a 20g so I don't need a strong one; smallest koralia nano would probably do as an example -HOB Filter: I have a sponge already that's been colonized just need somthing to put it in. I have an Aqueon HOB but it's not...

Setting up a QT/frag tank and have a 20g regular but would prefer a 20 long. Anyone in for a straight up trade? Or have one they'll part with cheaply? I have a standard dimension 20 gallon tank with a plastic/glass lid. I'll throw in the fluorescent light that comes with it if you want it...

I have an Ocellaris that I'm assuming is a female since she's of good size. I want to get her a mate but am not up to speed on suitable candidates for her. Obviously I'd love to get some beautiful little clown boy-toy for her but I'm not sure if I have to get the same species or not. Do...

My skimmer pump started acting up this past weekend. Of course it happens while I was out of town. Luckily my livestock was all fine and healthy. Basically it stopped pumping water and air. It was still on and making sounds but water and air were not getting pulled into the skimmer. I did...

Last night i saw something bobbing up and down in my tank. It was tiny and at first I thought it was sand that got blown into the water column but the action it displayed caught my eye. It was the size of a pinhead and was bobbing up and down in the same motion that a jellyfish does. It even...

Just stopped by Fish Collection on Saturday to cash in my Internet site pearls of wisdom (read:opinion). I had been there once before briefly and remembered being impressed and upon walking in remembered why. Overall in a store I look for livestock health and cleanliness. Livestock health...

I think my GBTA is in the process of splitting. Since yesterday afternoon, half of the foot was leaving the nook it was in and the other half was staying put. And the edges seem to be folding in. Hard to tell from pics because of the spot it's in and my clown also won't leave it alone for long...

I mentioned to my wife that I might buy a new larger tank since Petco has dollar days going on. I wanted to test the waters with her and without blinking she was on board! I was really surprised but definitely wasn't going to question it. Went to Petco and the only tank they had that I liked...

Selling an IVS Portal. Link to video: http://reefbuilders.com/2010/11/03/demonstration-video-portal-action-shows-exciting-product/ Link to IVS site: http://ivsportal.com/ Got it for Christmas but it had some small scratches on the lens. They were unnoticeable once on the aquarium glass so...

I have a frag that has some hard to kill Aiptasia. I've already blasted the previous pests with AiptasiaX but they keep sprouting anew. I'm wondering if a ReVive dip will kill these trespassing fools. One of them is right in the middle of some polyps and I don't want collateral damage.

Any laser owners want to lend or rent their expertise to rid one man's life of Aiptasia? I have very few visible and one of them is in a very difficult spot to get to. If you're armed with a strong laser and want to give, trade or sell your services I'm all ears. Equal Opportunity Employer...

Can I put two acans next to each other? It seems polyps of the same colony won't hurt each other but can different colonies hurt each other? I have a rock where I want to start an Acan garden (like some of the zoa gardens people have posted pics of) but am worried about putting them together...

I have a CPR HOB Refugium who's goal is solely pod production (although it has helped with nutrient export as well). Don't worry, I'm under no impression that this small fuge will produce enough to never feed my fish. I just want it for supplemental natural feed and since the little buggers...

So today I noticed that my derasa looks bleached a little bit in the fleshy part inside the shell. The mantle looks like it did when I got it but the inner fleshy part doesn't have as dark a coloration as before. Should I be worried or could it be acclimating to my lighting still? Two pictures...

Picked up some frags today and just had a great all around experience. Beautiful and generous specimens... friendly, honest, and fair dealing. Some knowledge to boot. I'm still fairly new to all of the best practices in the hobby, and it was so fortunate to have bought some frags but also some...
