Wow, looking super good

Thanks for coming all the way out to my house and bringing the seaswirl. It is hooked up and working great. It was nice to meet you and the wife. Hope you enjoy the anemone and coral. Doug

Tailspots are awesome and have great personalities. I had one for several years and just loved him. I highly recommend them.

I have an almost new Koralia 1 and a Koralia nano I have use for a couple o months. I would like to trade them for some cool sps or chalices Doug

That one is a bit different than mine. Mine is black with blue stripes

Are you referring to the blue strip cleaner wrasse. I have one that eats cyclops like a maniac. It seems happy and healthy in my tank. In fact it was one of only two fish that survived the sudden death of all my other fish.

I think Mick used to have a euroreef for sale.

I would look for a used euroreef or asm skimmer maybe a G3.

.....and know that I have helped out Davy Jones Locker, I just wanted to let you know that I will no longer be helping out with things at the shop. Dave will, of course be there to help out and your best bet for getting a hold of him is the phone number listed under his sponsor page and leave a message. As soon as I can get a hold of someone who can remove the sponsor tag, if anyone is reading that can do this please do, from under my screen name it will be removed as well as any of the privileges that go with being a sponsor. If I decide to continue with the club I will just pay my dues like everyone else. I have greatly enjoyed helping all of you and hope to still continue some of the great relationships I have built here but just as a hobbiest. It is very unfortunate that a few, on the business side of this hobby, go out of their way to make having an lfs or helping out an lfs so miserable. That being said it is just time for me to do this as a hobby, get out of the drama and have fun with it again. Plus then I can say what I want about who I want again. I also want to add that Dave from Davy Jones is, with few exceptions, one of the most ethical lfs in the area. I will still continue to do business with him and the short list of other lfs that maintain a high level of integrity and treat the hobbiest with the respect they deserve. These are the shops that will get my hard earned cash. I am always happy to share what I have learned and help folks out so don't hesitate to get in touch with me. I also love trading. Hope to see you all around, Doug

What type of overflows does your 120 have Jen? My oceanic 120 has the large center overflow and I can easily run my mag 18; however I used to have a 120 with corner overflows and I had to dial back the mag 18, with a ball valve, quite a bit. Doug

I am looking to buy or trade for a nice working 3/4" seaswirl.

That level if obedience is awesome. My last dog was a highly trained German Shepard. I have found that well trained dogs are also happy dogs. This lab seems to be a much faster learner than my GSD though. I taught him to sit in like 15 minutes the first day he came home.

That is awesome. That's what I plan on training my guy to do.

I got to pick up my new puppy yesterday. He is a Chocolate Lab and my future hunting and fishing partner. If anyone has any experience hunt training dogs let me know and I will pick your brain.

This came after I set up this tank. So the coral beauty was already gone. I think it must have come in on the clown tang I bought later, since he was the first death. I am pretty sure the CB would have already been dead. He has been out of my system for a couple weeks.

This is terrible. Never had velvet in a tank before. I guess I need to get some more corals and go to a coral only tank for the next 6-8 weeks. :(

So in the last week I have lost 6 fish. A week ago I lost a clown tang that I had for like 3 days. Last night I lost: 2 Picasso Clowns 1 Tailspot Blenny 1 Lawn Mower Blenny 1 Blue Throat trigger Of course I checked my params and everything is just perfect. My sps and a Cleaner Wrasse look fine. The temp sways between 80 at night and 82 during the day. I do have a maxi mini but I cant imagine it stinging 5 fish in 24 hours. I only found the body of one Picasso and it had no signs of injury. None of the fish had any signs of illness last night. I have had the two blennies for more that a couple years. The other fish were new but I got them from differant places. I have seldom lost a fish so this is new ground for me and pretty upsetting. Some wierd disease? anyone have any suggestions?? :( :( :( :(

If this is the one that you got from Colton. I never saw it pick at anything and never had any damaged corals in the two years I had him. It could be stress related or he could be grabbing some little pod that is hanging out amongst you zoo's. Hard to say. I would make sure he is well fed for a couple days though and keep an eye on him. Doug

I think James may have it at his shop but I am not sure

Still up for trade

Bump......

I think James at envision recommends brillianize. It is good stuff.

Pm returned.

That is a weird way to go shark fishing
