  1. That would be great! I work in Hillsboro, so I can come by any evening after work.
  2. I'm looking for some of the clear plastic netting you get from brs to make a cover for my tank. Does anybody have some left over? I need a piece that's 3'x1', and I'd rather not order a big piece and have a bunch of extra. Let me know.
  3. I got a gift certificate for ocean in a box for Christmas, so I went and picked this rainbow pocillopora up yesterday? It's nothing super fancy, but I've always liked how fuzzy they are.
  4. I know the six lines can be a-holes. I won't be adding any other fish though, so it's not a big deal. I just need to figure out a cover for the tank first.
  5. I think I'll try a wrasse for now. Would a six line do the job? It's a bare bottom tank, so I need on that doesn't need to bury itself at night.
  6. I found a zoa eating nudi the other day. It was only the one, and I haven't seen any others so far. Should I just assume there's more in there? Aside from pulling and dipping everything, what can I do?
  7. Breeding already? Dang! You must have gotten a horny batch. I'm still waiting for mine to get started.
  8. I'm an emt. If you stop breathing, feel free to call me. Actually, 911 is probably a better choice. I know a little about a lot though. I'm always happy to help out.
  9. Everything seems to be loving the new light. I've had the acro forever and it has always been pretty solid green and not grown much. All the little tips are new, and its totally changing color. You can't tell from the one picture, but it's pretty sweet. The others are just some random pictures from around the tank.
  10. Found the little mandarin on the floor this morning. [language filter].. I didn't even know they jumped!
  11. I had a few in my old tank that looked like that. I think they were called rainbow yumas?
  12. He's in there. Front and center. Just so small he blends in.
  13. Awesome morning at cuttlefish yesterday. It was great to see some people I haven't talked to in a while. I finally picked up one of the biota mandarins! Then I got this wall hammer out of a grab bag. Very good day! This is as good of a picture as I could get with only the blues on. The mandarin is so damned cute I can barely stand it.
  14. No worries at all. I don't want the plague. Now that I only have the one small tank, it's not worth the trouble to make it myself.
  15. I was pretty sure I was going to lose the green trachy in the water change mixup. It spent 3 days with one of its mouths gaping open spewing brown stuff. Luckily it seems to be doing much better today. I just picked up the purple one from Randall this week. It was too good a deal to pass up. I think I'm going to have to send him a check once it fully colors up.
  16. Thanks! I'm really surprised I didn't lose anything. My containers are different and very clearly marked. Just an honest mistake.
  17. On Thursday last week I noticed that my corals were all looking pretty sad and I couldn't figure out why. I was also having a small red algae bloom and lost two snails. Turns out, my water buckets had gotten filled up incorrectly, and I did a 25% water change with fresh water. The salinity was 1.021 on Thursday when I checked it. I'm not sure how low it dropped right after the water change, but I had been topping off with salt water which must have bumped it up a little. Fortunately, it looks like a couple of turbo snails are going to be the only casualties. I don't know how I for lucky and didn't lose all my corals. A huge thank you to Matty for being amazing as always and letting me come over at night and get some salt. I bumped it up to 1.024 that night, then let it slowly come back up to 1.026 as water evaporated. Moral of the story? Don't overlook the simplest problem. And I'll always be tasting my water before I add it from now on.
  18. It's all yours if you want to come get it. I think the other two are a little far away to make the trip just for this. Pm me and I'll give you the address.
  19. Still have this is anyone wants it. If not, I'll just give take it in to ocean in a box and let them have it.
  20. I got this before I took my bigger tank apart and never use it anymore. If anyone wants it, let me know. I'm in Vancouver, and I'm not going to make the meeting.
  21. Not much to update. Everything seems to be doing great. It's tough to get decent pictures of them since they're so small. They're actually a lot more active than I expected too. I would definitely recommend these to anyone that wants a very low maintenance tank for their office desk.
