    walking dendros

    My Co-Worker had one in his office tank. It died in a tank crash though. He had it about a year. They don't climb. It's best to obstruct cave entrances also, so you can keep it in view.

    Hello from the n00bster!

    Having started with a 28g nano cube. I would suggest going with a setup like the one you found on craigslist. Reason being, is after awhile, you want to mod your all in one, try and fit a small skimmer on it, try and set it up to a refugium, etc. It is harder to do that with an all in one...

    My 90 gallon tank: video update! (with narration this time!)

    Make sure that what you get is something you really like, and wouldn't mind spreading. I had some mushrooms that came in on my liverock (bought from another reefer) they ended up spreading all over and I didn't care much for them. I think they are like the terminator, you can't stop them, I had...

    No heater, no worries

    I had turned the return pump off on my tank doing maintenance and forgot to turn it back on. Two days later when I noticed something didn't seem right (fish sense) I checked everything, and turned it back on. Everything was good. No blanket and my lights are LED, so no heat coming from them. I...

    Ochre Striped Cardinals Apogon compressus Holding Eggs in his mouth.

    Thanks Erin, I saw one of your old threads about it, but there wasn't anything in it, other than a link to marinebreeders :D I was pretty sure I wouldn't go down the route of raising them, but I was curious how hard it would be. If it meant just feeding some smaller foods, I might be down...

    Ochre Striped Cardinals Apogon compressus Holding Eggs in his mouth.

    I have a pair in my tank. I noticed on Saturday one was holding eggs in his mouth. Today it looked like he may have eaten them his pouch was smaller. Anyone breed these? Curious on care.

    Erick's 57G LED Tank

    The problem is you would have to find a new home for the fish. Just getting the fish out of the tank would be a job and a half, depending on how your rockwork is set up, and how much the fish doesn't want to get caught. Then you would have to find another reefer who is willing to take it off...

    Steinhart Aquarium Tour

    I took a lot of shots of the cuttlefish. When I got to the display tank they had just started tangling tentacles. I tried getting my camera ready to take pics then they let go :( But they were nice enough to stick around, change colors, get close and stop moving long enough for me to put my...

    I don't think you're doing anything wrong. You just have to click on a picture to see them larger. My lens is a 50mm prime with a raynox 250 macro lens attachment. Nothing special, actually pretty affordable.

    Steinhart Aquarium Tour

    I took a ton of pictures. The ones I got of the behind scenes portion of the tour weren't that great. My lens isn't really great for capturing a lot of stuff in a confined room :( So I have a couple photos of the top portion of the big ass skimmers etc. I think the photos everyone else posted...
