  1. Got a new phone today so that means time for a new FTS

    I had a mishap with my kalk reactor and ato about a week ago. That caused a lot of color loss on the sps but everything is bouncing back nicely now.

    I love this tank.  Your rockscaping is beautiful, one of the best I have seen.  Keep posting pics!  I want to see how the corals fill out.

  2. This is for my smaller, 15 gallon frag tank.  It is shallow--maybe 7" deep.  I have a lawnmower in my big frag tank but he's huge, maybe 4".  I love his little grumpy-face.  But I need something smaller.  I tried a couple of black mollies but they are so lazy that the algae grows on them.  Is there a smaller blenny you'd suggest?

  3. What are you using to keep your frag tank algae/pest-free?  I want a fish that can get the algae between the egg crate grates, won't jump (good luck with that...), is relatively small, and won't hurt my corals (duh).  Thoughts?

  4. That's how I feel about eagle eyes, radioactive dragon eyes. Gorilla nipples, cherry charms, and toxic green palys.. They can stay in the shade and melt for all I care.. To common and bland, but I gotta have a single polyp to count towards my total morphs

    "Gorilla nipples"???  I want some of those just so I can say, "I have gorilla nipples."  Would be fun at parties...

  5. I'm sorry, I know these are legit corals but I just can't seem to warm up to them.  Let me just say it:  They're ugly.  Ugly, ugly, ugly.  Ugly.

     

    I know I'm not doing a real good job selling these things, but I'm sure there are some of you out there that see the potential.  I just want them to have a happy home.  And not at my house.

     

    I'm happy to trade for maybe some mushrooms (love those discosomas) or maxi-mini anemone (or any anemone for that matter).  Heck, I'll even trade for your toe nail clippings. 

     

    The first is a forest fire montipora digitata and the second is a blue ridge coral, which looks like an SPS but is really more of an LPS.

     

    Here's the forest fire (it looks like it is giving me the Evil Eye):

    And here is the blue ridge.  Look!  He's holding his arms out for you to pick him up!  He just wants to be loved.

  6. matty, I have a BRS RO/DI that I don't need.  I thought I'd donate it to the auction, if I can figure out how (I'm new here).  I'll spend some time today taking pics and getting it up there.  You might be able to get a really good deal!

  7. Once upon a time, a girl dreamed of having her own saltwater tank.  Then one day, a prince (okay, not a prince, just Jeff) set her up a 110 gallon.  She filled the tank with fish, and coral, and love.

    But like any girl, she wanted more.

     

    She longed for an anemone tank.  So she sold off her grandmother's jewelry and bought a 36 gallon bow front.

    As her addiction grew, she knew that there was only one thing that could quiet the beast...a FRAG tank (or two).

    This made her happy.  But soon she started hearing her family and her friends used words like, "crazy" and "obsessed."  And she began to worry. 

     

    Until...she found this awesome forum with other "crazy" and "obsessed" addicts and she felt like she had finally come home.
