Just have to share! Today I came home and took a look at the tank (usually the first thing I do when I get home) and was pleased to see not one, not two but THREE stomatella snails broadcasting eggs...and one male doing his job as well. My clowns were eating these things up as fast as they could and I assume the corals were enjoying the bounty as well?? Do the corals eat these also? I already have a fair amount of these snails so if anyone wants some.....

I have a number of florida ricordea and recently I have noticed that most of them have two mouths now. Does this usually mean they will split on their own soon? Is this fairly normal? Thanks all -Mark

Has anyone tried this with a Florida Ric?

PM sent - interested in the candy cane and hammer

so did I get ripped off when I bought my false perc for 20,000.00? Do I need to put this to a vote? ha ha ha!

PM sent about that clam, if it is not sold yet!!

Well, just finished my second Portland to Coast relay race yesterday and boy am I sore. Does anyone else to either the Hood to COast or Portland to Coast (speed walk)? Our team did much better this year and we came in 64th place out of 131 teams in our division.

You have seen the light!

sql injection?

PM being sent JeffP!

Hey everyone! Orange is my fav color, thus my drive to find some good bright orange Zoas. In looking at zoaidI .com have found the following that I would love to buy: bam bam orange Argent orange Creamsicle Envy Orange KO's nightmare Oxide If you have any of the above and would like to sell please PM me Thank you Mark

I want to see some pictures! I could not make it but wanted to!

I have nuked all of mine with aiptasia x and my tank is clear now...good stuff so far.

I hear Chili's closed its doors on a number of locations as well!

I had some red slime growing on my gravel...sucked it up and added a powerhead and it has not been back since Good luck.

dsoz....my deck project went exactly like yours last year..it snowballed really fast. I have part two to finish up this year!

I recently switched from PC to MH lighting (150W 14k bulb) in my 15 gallon nano and I have had no issues with any of the corals. The first week I cut the photo period to about 5 hours and slowly ramped up from there. I have noticed my corals are growing faster and things look very good now.

I have switched from red sea to Tropic Marin that I won at the fenner talk. Things are growing nicely but I do have to suppliment with calcium daily.

I need to do a heavy pruning in my FW tank tomorrow. Anyone want some Jungle val and dwarf saggitaria? I have a few other 'bunching' plants to thin out as well. Thanks Mark

14 gallons and the xenia is probably 8" from the 150w MH light. Thanks all!

My new halide has been running for just over a week now - my photo period is only 6 hours right now. One of my xenia's at the top of the tank is starting to look not so happy - some of his 'arms' have shrunk and he just doesn't look well. I'm guessing the new light (had PC's up until last week) is blasting him. How to I pry him off the rock to move him? HELP! Thanks Mark

The title says it all...I would like to add a few of each to my tank. Are you willing to sell some? Thanks Mark

I will be doing a water change with the tropic marin on sunday...my 'water change' day

I scored a 55lb bucket of Tropic Marin! I usually change about 2-3 gallons per week in my nano (14 gallons) Thanks for the advice everyone...keep it coming!

OK, so it looks like the Tropic Marin sea salt I won at the Bob Fenner talk is a good salt. Do any of you folks use it? What has your experience been with it? I currently use Red Sea salt, but if I wanted to start using the Tropic Marin is it OK to have both types of salt in my tank? How should I go about introducing a new salt, or should I? Also, my new Sunpod 150 MH just arrived (I wish I were home) and how would you guys reccomend 'breaking in' the tank to much higher lighint than my current PC light? I have a 14g nano. Should I just run the Halide for 2-3 hours the first few days then ramp up the time by an hour a day until I am at 8-10 hours? I imagine I will need to move my Xenia down lower in the tank so it does not get 'blinded by the light'! Any help and advice will be greatly appreciated. thanks Mark
