Hi Mike I too can give you some cheto when your ready. I'm pretty close to you. Beckie

tec kid says : If you like the lap top and all else is good then $40-50 is fine If you can afford a new one than go for it Beckie

Frag Competition - Picture Update Ok, here it is for now, picture update as of 1/8/10. Currently has 6 heads and a "nub".

Once again a family emergancy has kept me away from my tank and computer. I just got on line & hope to have a picture up loaded to photo bucket to submit. I will understand if I need to be DQ'ed. Beckie

I removed the turbos because they got so big they just ran over every thing. Beckie

Looks like what I have as well. Hubby hates it and bugs me all the time to get it gone. It does add a dirty look to the tank but I don't want and urchine Beckie

It sounds like thats the answer. I put my sand sifters & serpant in the refug. I guess I will be pick up one right away. Any thing else I need to watch for? Will they eat or bother any thing esle? Beckie

I have always had great growth with zoos. Lately I have seen tons of astrina (sp) stars all over them and closed more often than not.:eek: Will a Harliqiun shrimp eat them. I have pulled some zoos that were covered with them. My purple hornets have gone form 20 to 4 (flame). Is there any thing I can do. It's killing me and my zoos !!!! Beckie

Looks good. I have had the mini cycle when making major moves rearranging the aqua scaping. Lots of room to grow..... money, money..... oh yea tons of smiles. Beckie

Steve Oh man to bad. Now that you have 1st hand using them what do you think? I don't remember any real high like sps. Beckie

Great... waiting is hard but I'm sure worth the wait. Beckie

Get suction dish like you use in the kitchen or bath. Make sure it has small drain holes for flow in this case, put rubble in it, stick to side of tank or sump in low flow area. Drop them in an wait. Worked well for me. Beckie

Is that the T5 tank from your experiment? It is great! Beckie

Welcome... well I can only say really think about going with the best you can afford. I said "oh I only want easy basic stuff I don't need all that. 1 1/2 year later I have up graded the lights, moon lights, and planning the new sump/refug. Yep Nicks a great guy and yes........gone way beyond the bacis. Beckie

Not me, I am not a fan of cold. Spend as much time as I can in Hawaii. I guess it would be fine if I could stay home! I am the slow driving parinoid idiot every one should stay clear of. Beckie

I wish I coukld, gotta do a family gathering in N.E. No way to get out of it unless....... freezing rain...... whats gonna be worse is the question? Beckie

O.k. Guys you forgot to mention that he'll love every minute of it. The frustrations really never go away but your ALL still in the hobby. LOL Welcome Beckie

Very funny stuff! Beckie

Congrats.... I now have my 1st grand daughter and forgot what joy the little ones bring. Beckie

Two thoughts..........Great job dad! Very interesting & informative! Beckie

I show hubby the tank every time I can. Now if only the kid would get his own place... perfect spot in the basement. Beckie

I am guessing that there must be differing way's. I have seen many treads talking about dipping but nothing detailed. I know I question for details. Beckie

I'm sure the great dogs are part of that.... not kidding! Beckie

O.k. so after dipping than do you do a acclimation drip before putting back in that tank. Has any one tried antibiotics in the dip? Beckie

When you fresh water dip your fish how long, and do you then slowly drip them to reaclimate them in tank drip?(scratch) Beckie
