Funny you mention this I was just going to post up a 40 breeder with sump and skimmer that I got from someone who used it as a qt tank. You can have it for a nice frag or two that I can donate to the frag swap on Sunday. I live in SE portland Happy Valley area.

Sounds good 😊

50 dollars . Are you going to the meeting next Sunday I can bring it then.

I have one Darice that I was using on my 25

You are correct the snowflake is imposing its dominance on the black ice and as long as the black ice does the twitching probably will be fine but you are also correct if there is not much of a size difference could be a problem. I feel like your instincts are good. If it is still showing that kind of agression it’s not feeling ver secure. I usually know within the first day or two if it’s going to work. The snowflake sounds super aggressive and I have only had luck with those when I added a much bigger clown. It was kinda funny to see.

Like someone said the twitching is a sign of submission. As long as the snowflake backs off and doesn’t attack that’s a good sign. If you have an acclimation box and can separate them quickly if it gets more physical you can wait it out. I find usually things go better if there is a significant size difference between the two fish. I also find that trying to mix a percula with an ocellaris species doesn’t work but you have two ocellaris.

Thanks Novin for organizing this!

Glad you’re okay sorry I didn’t see this sooner 🤗.

Nice plumbing and cabinet work. It makes all the difference.

Awesome thanks for the offer to help out !

We could certainly do one again we were definitely doing one for December . Yes it was . David did an excellent job with the organization

You’re welcome. There are a lot of people who love automation and I understand that because I love my auto top off and it’s the one automated piece of equipment I will not do without. I just personally hate when things break down or tubing gets clogged etc and honestly if I don’t want to get up and miss a day of dosing it doesn’t hurt anything. I was gone a bit longer in the summer and told my wife to dose for a week but she didn’t dose alk dropped to 7but nothing happened it just slows growth. Nature tends to tolerate gradual changes.

Was looking at the Macna Facebook feed and I spotted a familiar face 😎 Can anyone guess who it is ?

No it doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg. I have a 25 lagoon that has been up since 4/2021. I use All for Reef and hand dose about 5 to 7 ml per day. I dose about a half tablespoon of magnesium per day. I test Calcium , mg and alk once a week. I use chemipure nano and replace every 2 months I do water changes every 2 weeks and mix a batch of salt that lasts about 2 months. I heat it up and put a power head to mix it up the day of water change day. I use the tropic marin salt because I saw on BRS when they did studies it tends to stay more stable They say dose in the evening but I dose early in the morning. I actually enjoy getting up early and feeding the dendro so don’t mind hand dosing. When I go away I just bump up the dosing of the alk to about 10. (Which is why I run my magnesium higher ) I don’t run a skimmer and just change out the filter floss once a week. I always say it can be as simple or complicated as you want and as automated and manual as you want.

When: Sunday September 25 1:00 to 5:pm Where: All Things Aquarium 30299 SW Boones Ferry Rd Wilsonville, OR 97070 We will have pizza and drinks ! Daniel from ReeFi will unveil his new ReeFi Uno 2.0 and answer questions about LED lighting. We'll also raffle off a ReeFi Duo Extreme led light.

Sounds like a Nuvo 10 might work then. I saw something that petco has its tank sell going on too.

I have a Nuvo 20 I have in storage for our TFT program that I would give you if it is for a classroom. I think it has the ai prime light too

That’s awesome that you are trying to grow them. The people I know that have tried found they are such voracious aiptasia eaters it’s trying to have enough aiptasia to grow. Good luck! I wish I had aiptasia to give but then again I’m glad I don’t . Joes juice in a small tank has kept my aiptasia at bay.

Why don’t we just let them auto renew and just give a notification that payment is due and they will be charged ? Is this possible ? It happens with my Apple subscriptions now.

Thanks for posting this. I do hope people do consider being a supporting member. As everyone knows prices for everything have gone up and providing food has become more expensive. One raffle ticket is 5 dollars and I have had people with just one raffle ticket win. There are Member only raffles we do and will do at the Holiday party. Supporting members will get a free ticket. This place has always been member focused we aren’t reef2reef where we get most of our money from sponsors and we are selective with who we have sponsor our site because we want honest sponsors who support our mission. Are there thoughts as to why someone would be hesitant to pay the yearly 24 dollar fee ?

Lot of good memories watching this tank. Free is a good deal. Your money back if you aren’t satisfied.

Very nice classified well organized good luck with sale!

Looks good !

Would have been nice to see you. It’s been to long but I’m sure Hawaii was better. ☺️

Wasn’t the same without you there ! You were missed for sure !
