Works great

The cube looks good! Can't wait to see the finished big boy! The floors are awesome btw, I want to do stained concrete bad.

Dang you got them on frozen?! Skills that pay the bills haha! It took me 5 months to get my lion on frozen. Thought he never would do it. I'll take your idea and get a small one. My shrimp is fairly big, goby and coral were the biggest concern! Thanks hash! Where did you find the yellow one?? I'm wanting a red.

Oh nice thanks Matty!

I don't know how to get the pictures to an acceptable size for the site?? I took them all with my iPhone so I figured they would be small enough but it is still too large. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Garett, I had an extremely stubborn lion fish I had to entice him to eat every time but it never bothered me. My cleaner shrimp is about 3 to 4 inches long, the goby is only about 3 inches long.. I really appreciate the info, I'm going to toss it around and decide over a week or so. I've just about hit my limit on coral for a while so its time for a few fish.

Ok cool! I think I'm going to grab one! I want the big clearish purple one I think it's a scorpion fish but 400 bucks for a fish is too rich for my blood, so the red leaf will have to work, haha

I can vouch for the Duncan its an awesome deal! Thanks again for the corals!

Thanks hash! If he ate my cleaner shrimp my wife would kill me lol

I have a cleaner shrimp, soft and hard corals, a coral beauty, and a diamond goby. Will he end up eating my shrimp? Or coral beauty? Messing with corals?

I have not been to Garrett's shop yet but it seems nice from the word from other members, I spend most of my money at Fantaseas, Patrick is very honest and has bent over backwards to help me when I had ich, and didn't know really what I was doing in the beginning. He also will always let you swap a fish, coral, invert, If it doesn't work with your tank. Upscales has really changed my first opinion of them around. I could not stand to be in there but now they are really great to deal with. Tom is awesome and Travis has really been much more helpful and nice lately. Those are the two shops I visit most. Both have good rodi water, both have knowledgable, and kind employees. Which seems to be few and far between in this hobby lately. Seahorse is kind of sketch IMO, but that's just an opinion. I bought water there and had horrible diatom issues for months. Hollywood aquarium in Lake Oswego seem to feel superior to their customers, won't ever be in that store again. Hope this helps, just blunt, honest opinions from experience in each shop.

I like the war and favia, the doughnuts seem to be much more than I expected! I just need some red in my tank haha! Thank you for the info Garrett! I wish your shop was closer you seem like a stand up, nice guy! I might have to make a day out of coming to see your place.

Really? I've found red brains on live aquaria for like 40 bucks figured 30 is fair, the doughnut I know are more. For a doughnut I'd spend more but I thought the price was more than fair on the brain.

Thanks for the corals today rich! The chalice looks awesome under my lighting! To everyone else, he has great pricing and is a great guy to do business with!

Don't want to pay retail pricing haha, I'd like to spend no more than 30 bucks. If you have one shoo me a pm or a pic to my cell 5032674537 please be close to Oregon city area, just can't drive to like Eugene for one. Thanks everyone!

Someone has to have a big tank and need some actinics!

If you lived closer I'd buy you a big Rubbermaid tub for a qt tank, I took one of my powerheads out of my DT bought a big 20 dollar Rubbermaid, put my powerhead in it, and treated with copper, just do every other day water changes, the wrasse is not going to cure your problem, take the money your going to waste on the wrasse and put together an inexpensive qt tank.

I did a lot of reading on ich and all the myths to cure it, a cleaner wrasse simply can not rid a fish of ich, yes it will swim around and clean the fish, but it is not cleaning the ich. Also the wrasse will just end up contracting it a lot of the time. One of the readings I Lund after I was misled into buying a wrasse. No, they can't cure ich for the simple reason that they don't eat ich. They feed on juvenile parasitic crustaceans, mucus, and dead skin; that last one being the most significant for hobbyists. Because the actual ich parasite is located under the skin of the host, it's not susceptible to attack by cleaners except for the very short period when it's burrowing in. That naturally occurs in the wee hours of the morning while the cleaners are asleep, and only lasts a few minutes anyway, so in reality there is no period when cleaners can eat the parasite without wounding the fish. Even in studies where cleaners have been added to tanks and allowed to clean specifically during the attachment period, they ate so few of the parasites that there was no statistically significant change in parasite loads. While they won't eat the parasite itself, the fact that the number of white spots is reduced isn't necessarily due entirely to coincidence. However, the white spots are not the parasite. The size of the parasite itself is at the low end of what the human eye can resolve. If you have 20/20 vision, are sitting close enough, and it's on a dark-colored fish, you could in theory see it, but just barely. The white spots are just nodules of damaged skin overlying where the parasite is embedded. Most cleaners will be more than happy to eat damaged skin, so they can directly reduce the appearance of white spots. However, removing the white spots does nothing to cure the fish of the parasite.

From personal experience your best bet is Hospital tank, something as simple as a big Rubbermaid to treat everything except the shark and ray, as for the wrasse, they do nothing, ich is under the coat of the fish, it's a total myth that a wrasse will help with it. Copper treat, or hypo treat them out of your DT or your sand and rock will be dead.

ARO vho with 4 24 inch bulbs, comes with the mounting legs, this setup online is 240 bucks without the mounting feet. Trade for corals, or sell for 50 bucks. Everything works.

No need to apologize hatcher, I think we all totally understand with making a rash decision with the level of stress you are going through. If you need any help with the tank shoot me a pm I'll do what I can to help out!

I'll take the candy coral I'm in Oregon city can pick up any day

What color is the candy coral?

Interested in any trades? Tools? Other reef equipment?
