  1. Just the standard variety red mushrooms and the blue/purple ones. They are not rare, not special and you can pretty much get them anywhere. (laugh) I'd say I have at least a half dozen of them, maybe more. Free, come get them soon. I took the lights off the tank yesterday.
  2. We've had this guy for a year and a half, and he's not going into the new tank. If you want him he's yours.
  3. Also its posted its sitting on a 5g bucket so u should be able to get a pretty good idea of its dimensions. Ok height i guess could be confusing, but width is what ur looking at sitting on a bucket, im sure yall have a bucket and can be a good judge.
  4. rough dems: top to bottom - approx 10 inches. side to side at its widest is 9
  5. We just broke down our 35g and this is the only piece we have left. Beautiful rock approx 20 lb. THICK coraline on entire rock various sponges attached. It is sitting on the top of a 5g bucket for size reference. $75 cash or trade for high end coral, no sps though. whatcha got?
  6. I used to use it, before I started making my own food. Works great!! Corals and fish both loved it.
  7. Kim, If there's still room on the alternate list I'll take 6. Thanks!

    My Tank...

    Very nice looking tank! I would say depends on the candy cane. I have two in my tank: the green went from 2 to about 6 heads in one year. The brown ones are still at two heads - one w/ two mouths but not split yet. Both in the same tank. Feed them mysis and they will grow faster.

    My Tank...

    LOL, I get this same comment, but from my husband! (laugh)
  10. Ha Ha my son has that on his ipod. He found it, not me! Too bad that was the closest I can get him to like the tanks. (laugh)
  11. Setting up my new tank, I made sure to get the right amount and right grade of sand. In the small tank we have crushed coral which I do not like at all. My whole poing of putting a 2.5 inch sandbed was for a goby/shrimp pair. I REALLY wanted one. Shortly after we put in the new sand, and 60 more pounds of rock - I found out I'm supposed to put the rock first, then sand. I did the opposite, which means no shrimp/goby pair for me. SO sad. DOH! (sad)
  12. we have had ours for a month and a half and we dont see a fraction of the starfish we had. We had a problem with the starfish eating our zoas.
  13. We got it to take care of a asterina starfish over population, he has served his purpose and eliminated the problem.
  14. For sale one Harlequin Shrimp $20 or will trade for: Diamond Goby, peppermint shrimp pair, sand sifting starfish or any other cool reef safe fish you might want to trade.
  15. Fast5 - welcome to the site, I hope you stay. The help, advice and corals I've gotten from this club have been invaluable to me.
  16. Excellent idea! Great for members who normally wouldn't be able to buy a spendy piece, great to build (or rebuild as the case may be) rapport w/ the sponsors. Love it!
  17. Bulbs, and fixture, are all brand new in June. I'll try to take pics tonight. Thanks all! PS - it's definitely not fuzzy. Hard and crusty, I need a razor blade to get it off.
  18. Agreed there are some excellent points made, and I don't think I've read all of them. In my opinion once items are donated you can no longer direct what happens to these things. Whether it's items to various charities, fund raisers, schools or what have you. Personally, I have entered several raffles just for the sake of helping said fund raiser. A donation, just as a gift, is given away and not looking back. I can't give a gift for Christmas to someone and then look over their shoulder to make sure they use the gift in they way I prefer, it just doesn't work that way. Having said that, thank you to all of the generous sponsors who have donated.
  19. I kinda figured that LOL. Maybe someone can organize another club sponsored one? I had a lot of fun the last time around.
  20. I've been testing once or twice a week, expecting something to be a miss. Everything looks good. I can retest tonight and post to verify. I'm pretty sure the coralline isn't dying, I've had that happen when I flipped my pink window rock around and put the wrong side facing forward. This is new stuff, growing not declining. I will see if I can take some pictures of it to show.
  21. I don't know - but it's beautiful! Is it that blue in person? By the way, my new PEs are doing great!
  22. I've had my 36bf up for about a year and a half. I have pink coralline growing everywhere! Very thick on the rocks, filter, koralia, pretty much everywhere. In the last few months I'm getting the same thing, but it's GREEN. YUK. On the corners of the tank where I can't get the magfloat, on the back wall of the tank, and also on the crushed coral sandbed (which I hate anyway but now that it's green it's even uglier!) When you just glance at the tank it has a major green tint. What's the deal here? I've considered using purple up, but I do have tons of pink coralline, and I've created this tank by only having to put chemicals in it once (for red slime.) Actually - now that I say that - it's been turning green since i've used the chemi-clean. No clue if there is any relation to that or not. I've scraped some of the pink hoping to get it to seed some more. It hasn't helped. I'm going to be tearing this tank down eventually anyway, slowly putting everything in the 75 (dang there's not as much room as I'd hoped in there!) But I want to avoid this in the future for the new tank. Any thoughts on this? Do more/less of any certain nutrients sway the color of the algae? Sorry, no pics. I'm REALLY hoping Mrs. Claus will put a camera in my stocking. (naughty) Thanks.
