Welcome. Glad you found the board. Don't forget that everyone on here is a potential trade, buy or sell for you. You are not limited to just shops. Depends on where in SE you are, but I would try to find Nano reef on Stark west of I205, and Saltwater Fantaseas on Sandy to the east of I205. Rose City on Powell somewhere in the 30th or 40th block is also not a shop to miss. Also The Coral Mafia is a great place, Isaac has some awesome corals at good prices. If you are into high end corals, don't miss Ocean in a Box in Vancouver. Perry has some great ebay auctions about every other week, and now he just opened up his store to the public. Those are all sponsors, but there are some that are not sponsors as well. dsoz

You are welcome. It was nice to see you and your tank again. Thanks for the coral. dsoz

Yep, fish tank, rock band, big TV, PS3 and Wii all in the same man cave. My rock band drums don't make it into pictures because they are separated by a wall. I have rock band, rock band 2, and The Beatles Rock band. Of the three, I like the Beatles one the best. My friend had guitar hero and rock band and he says that the rock band drum set is better because the guitar hero drum set falls apart faster. dsoz

Chocolate chip stars are cheep, and you can cut an arm of one and feed it to the shrimp each week or so. At that rate it is about $5-10 a month to feed the critter. If you have enough stars in enough different tanks you can rotate through cuttings and keep your shrimp fed and still keep the food supply around. The star will grow back a new arm in a month or two. It is a gross practice that I can't see myself doing, but some people like keeping the shrimp enough that they will sacrifice a star a month to keep the shrimp happy and fed. On the other hand, most of us eat meat. Some people must keep cows, chickens, and pigs to keep us happy and fed... dsoz

Did you see the asterina in the lower right corner of the picture? Maybe that is what the shrimp is looking for... dsoz

share the love. Mystery zoas are nice. dsoz

Are you decreasing your nicotine dose yet? Congrats are still in order... How about that new frag? Is he here yet? (been out of town for a week) dsoz

Jay, I would be interested in your moon crater zoas that we talked about before. Can you PM me the price on them? dsoz

I am in. And I fit the 3 block rule. Share the love dsoz

Steve, I am at the beach right now, but I will be home on Monday or Tuesday. You can keep it in one of my tanks if your other prospect falls through. dsoz

I like. Especially the little orange fungia. dsoz

That would be a nice score. Too bad that I won't be around. :( dsoz

So the flood finally came... Early congrats are in order. dsoz

Hope it works for you Eric. The kids are worth it. dsoz

Yep, I like fungia too. I think that it is fun to watch them eat. I feed mine a couple of times a week just to watch. Those are some nice ones in that picture. I like the middle row, furthest to the right... I take that back, I like all of them. dsoz

Yummy looking yumas! LOL dsoz

150w halide would be good too, as long as you control the heat. I have one that I could sell. Sending PM. dsoz

Nice fungia. dsoz

Looks good. dsoz

It looks like little tentacles sticking out of each "spot" or head. The tentacles are white or clear. Have you ever seen a candycane coral extend feeder tentacles at night? Looks like that. FWIW, I have a couple acans that will extend feeder tentacles whenever there is food in the tank. I have another one that NEVER extends them (as far as I have seen). dsoz

The large ones are cold water. THere are several smaller ones that are warmer water. THey are carnivores, but unless they get big they don't pose any threat to livestock. dsoz

I have a bunch of man-made LR. You can come over and look at it if you want. Cheep too. dsoz

+1 strawberry anemone. Corynactis or Pseudocorynactus is the probably genus. I got a bunch of these from some live sand that I got from J&Jr (former member) when I first started my tank. dsoz

Nice pics. I love the aquariscope for taking pictures. The best part is that you get a top-down shot, and there is no coraline to get in the way. Make sure you wear the neck-strap for the camera just in case you let it slip. Then there is a chance that it does not go all the way to the bottom of the tank. That would be bad. dsoz
