    Quanta Lights

    I use several of his lights as supplemental lighting -- form factor works great for that. They're so good though that I might use them as my mains when I replace my radions.

    How difficult is planted compared to reef

    I've tried a very small planted tank in sort of a side-hobby not too focused way, and failed because I couldn't stay ahead of algae. It was a ton of work keeping it off the plants and eventually I just lost the battle. Had a few snails, but maybe not enough.

    New display at HTA

    Saw the new tank last Thursday. Looks fantastic! one more reason to stop by HTA that I did not need.

    Tank tour sign up thread

    I'm in Castro Valley (very close to Arvin I think) and have a couple tanks I'm happy to show. Plus a bunch of frags I'd like to give away if any interested.

    Nori feeder… what do you use?

    I feed nori every day, but I just drop the sheet in the tank. It's gone in a couple minutes.

    Moving a waterbox Infinia 215.5 from Vacaville to Castro Valley… help? Lol

    I'm in Castro Valley and might be able to help with the unloading (depending on soccer schedules etc). I also have suction cups, and I've moved a 225g solo.

    Goni Care

    I think gonis are hit or miss depending on the species. I've had some thrive, and some wither away, all in the same tank. Here's a vid showing 5 I have now. 3 are growing (the red one is a couple years old and was a frag from @under_water_ninja ), and 2 are mostly just hanging in there.

    Chalice coral growth

    The Hollywood Stunner definitely grows outward with no substrate, but it is one of the thin chalices. It's like a potato chip thickness at first. This pattern might not happen for the thicker ones .

    Coral ID please

    Thanks! I've had the Moorish idol for over 7 years. Yes, I think she does pick at some corals. I can't be sure though. Acans and zoas get eaten in that tank, but the MI shares it with an Emperor Angel, and Queen Angel, and a Flame Angel, among others, so can't be sure it's the MI, but I...

    Coral ID please

    Not sure, but I think I got the frag from Aquarium Concepts in Dublin (before the fire obviously). Here's pic of a piece in my frag tank: and a too-blue-no-orange-filter shot of it in one of my display tanks (it's the huge colony front left): so there's plenty more of it available if...

    Stylophora, Hollywood Stunner, acropora -- Free pickup in Castro Valley

    Thanks for your efforts getting these to the swap. Unfortunately I don't know the name of the acro. I've had it in my tanks for at least 8 years, maybe longer.

    Stylophora, Hollywood Stunner, acropora -- Free pickup in Castro Valley

    Stylo and acro colony are gone. I hear it they might make appearances as frags at the swap. Most of the Hollywood Stunner is still available.

    Stylophora, Hollywood Stunner, acropora -- Free pickup in Castro Valley

    I have to clear our my 57g and these corals are taking up too much room. I can't fit them in my frag tank, so before I throw them away, wanted to see if anyone her wants frags or colonies Let me know if interested. --Steve
