Here is a pic of the colony

I have several pieces of  briarium you can have, Look it up it's in the family but it branches

I bought one at the Batteries Plus shop in Tualatin, It came with an assortment of sizes for the little plugs

I was planning on being there but my wife decided she needed a break like soon! We are headed to Kona on the 9th, I'll PM John and see if he responds, maybe we can meet up on the 15th and toast you guys too.

I got my letter yesterday and signed up for the 1 yr of free credit protection that BRS is giving everyone. I didn't have any red flags show up, but it was a relief to see the clean summary and to have the monitoring in place. It is something that I should be doing anyway.

Same here, we had a similar instance with a bank a few years back and they also provided this service, good job BRS thanks for following through with the free credit protection.

Anyone have a fish go blind, I have a large Blue Chromis that I noticed this morning on the side/top of the tank like it was in distress. She is several years old and a bully to the smaller one, Maybe she was bolting after the other one and smacked her head into something. This evening she was swimming around, backing up and running into things, she swam right into a Rose Anemone then backed out. I put a net right in front of her and picked her right up, she never saw it or tried to move.

She's in the sump for now I'll see how she does. 

I use a heater thru my apex, since I switched to Led's I have had to heat  my tank. 

With my wife Peg

There are small kits that go up to 12000, lots of elbow grease but they work

That's cool, didn't know they could do that, do you keep them plugged in all the time?. I have Linksys cams, one to watch the fish and one on the sump to watch the water level when traveling 

I have the large brown ones you are welcome to

This is like Green Star polyp, same purple leathery skin but it curls into branches. This piece is on rock and the sand bed, it needs to be isolated  or given it's own rock to grow on. Trades welcome or this is a good starter coral for beginners you can have a piece.

Since I switched to Led's I have to heat my tank to keep it at 76 any higher and the heater and Chiller/heater would be running a lot more

What's the best way to get the zoas off the rock to frag, mine are on rocks that i can't remove

I have a couple of soft corals for you when you are ready, I can drop  them by

Have to replace everything, probes will work though!

I have a 3/4" hose the goes from inside tank room out near a waste line and the 55g water/salt with a pump inside circulating. I take the pump out of the 55 into the tank room slip the hose on and pump approx 55g out of the sump, Then take the pump back out to the barrel slip on same hose and pump 55g back into the sump. Takes about 30 min, I don't always do 55g sometimes less, I could use a second pump but it only takes a minute plus I can clean and check the pump from the mixing barrel.

Having a line in place to use for both pumping water out and then back in makes it very quick and easy water change 

Thanks for the info, I have tried the same with pasting in the thread with some working and some not I'll try the tree pic

Yep that works a lot better, my turbinaria coral on it's way out. That's the bottom of a 50g barrel i cut to put it in. The red spots are on my phone camera after it got wet, had to get a new S5  

Let's see some more or post if it doesn't work for you on your computer,phone etc

Same here, labeled both rows on the outlet box and the cords  

Rock work looks amazing! did you build it outside the tank?. I like the clean look of the rimless tank, very nice job

Have a large bright green sinularia soft coral to trade, Two pieces both have separated from the colony, still on the rock for now. These are multi branch large pieces

All gone for now

Thanks for stopping by Calvin

pieces on bottom right

Have another on that needs pruning soon which my clowns are hosting

We have a generator with a transfer panel on our house for a power outage, only used it once or twice in 10 years. 

I'll join in, sending info  let me know if it goes through
