This afternoon my yellow tang starting swimming erratically in circles. From a quick google search it seems to be whirling disease?  Anyone delt with this and was able to cure it?

I’m sure I’ll have some available then if you’re still interested. I’m thinking of setting up an anemone tank too. I have 6 in my display and it really limits space for other corals

Located in tigard. 

Went from 1 to 5 anemones in 6 months. Looking to trade for other anemones and corals. Not looking for anything specific just trying to add color and variety. Last pic is the original rainbow that split, second pic is the result of a second split left in a neglected tank that I haven’t taken down yet, and the first pic that looks like 1 rainbow is actually 2 that resulted from a third split.  

Just curious if anyone knows what region the torches are from. Also interesting how differently they react. My purple one has just recently started opening up in the last month or so while my green one has tripled in size

Hi is the fish still available?  I may be interested in it. Also, how much for the sunnyD’s?  Any chance you could meet on Sunday halfway, around Woodburn or so?

Sorry, I plan on keeping the fish in the tank.  Seems like I hit the jackpot and don’t want to take any chances. Also, it’s very skittish and doubt I’d be able to catch him.  I’m assuming the majano and aptasia are never fully gone and the filefish nibbles any that dare to expose themselves. If it helps, I believe it’s a female bristle tail I bought at Upscales. 

My file fish ate all my majano and aptasia, so no need for this. Asking $50 or trade for corals?

These fish are great for majano as well. Cleared out my 150 gal tank in about 3 weeks

Looking to expand my anemone collection. Anyone have a green bta they’d like to trade for a rainbow or red?

I’d be interested in the harlequin tusk. 

1. Sump water volume: remember, the max water height as shown is 9”. So your actual volume is about 50gal

2. I’m assuming you use an ato? The smaller the return chamber is, the less that needs to evaporate to activate the ato. Although, with the total volume of your system it probably doesn’t make a huge difference. 

3.  I prefer a separate chamber for the skimmer so that the water level never changes. I like to turn off my return pump when feeding so none of the food goes into the overflows. When I had my skimmer in the return chamber, it kept overflowing when I turned off my return pump. 

I have a bicolor angel that’s been nipping at my corals and banished to the sump. Anyone with a FOWLR interested in trading for a reef safe fish or corals?  About 4”, fat and healthy.

Hi Parvo - I could stand to thine mine so will try and remember to bring a bag along.

Thanks!  Unfortunately, I have to work but I’ll be there briefly around 4:00 to pick up my torch corals. I’ll be the bald Asian guy 😅

Looking for some chaeto to add to my Refugium. If anyone is about to dump some I’d love to get a handful. I’ll be at the meeting tomorrow for a short time if you’re coming. Thanks!

Payment sent for 2!

Purchased a 150gal fully stocked tank and, unfortunately, the seller said he could get some guys to help, but now he can’t. Anyone available this Sunday?  Mostly just need some muscle to move the DT. Located in Tigard.  Of course food and drink provided

Also, is it possible to move the tank with just the sand left in the tank or will it be too heavy?  How bad of a cycle will I get?

Here’s my plan of action  please give any suggestions

Remove corals and rock and place in a temporary 55 gal with existing water

Catch fish and place in 55

syphon rest of water and save as much as possible in buckets

move tank with sand, or remove sand and move tank  

set up tank and add rock and livestock right away or wait and check cycle?  

Also, approximately how many hours will it take?  Should I start in the morning or can I start in the afternoon?

Jeff I’m confused. How come parvo99 did not win this.   His 904 timestsmp was after alephnull at 904 also. Just looking for clarification.  

I tried to bid $32 last second but alephnull bid the same amount before me so he won.  I should have refreshed before placing my bid 😋

He’ll probably fix it when he sees it. Same thing happened on my bid (except I lost in the correction). I think he quickly looked at the last bid based on time stamp instead of who bid the highest. 

33

32

Ok. Thanks for the clarification! 

Hm. Not sure how the time stamps work because I hit submit reply exactly at 5:30. Figured I might have missed it by a couple seconds, not 36min 😳

Dang I missed the cutoff? Bad sniping skills :/
