Sorry to hear that Bernie - Luckily, Quite a few of the frags made it around the group - I'm not sure of all who got a frag, but Hopefully this coral stays in the community.

...Which begs the question - when are hermits necessary? I.e. what role do they actually play in the tank's ecosystem?

Hey Guys, I'm trying to start planning for my new tank, and I wanted to get some advice on what I should add to the tank for a clean-up crew. Honestly, I have often have very few snails, hermits, etc., in my tanks, but I am considering adding a few to start the new tank (when the time...

I really wanted to take pics of the empty tank - and totally forgot to do so... the tank is now packed in the POD and we leave on Thursday - I promise to do my best to take pictures of the tank as I set it back up... I trust this group of friends and reefers about helping me on decisions...

I own the 624 - been a great reactor.

Well then I know that this is occurring, since the 2nd stage always does dissolve some of the media. Yes, the first stage dissolves at at least 2x the rate of the 2nd, but, something is happening in there.

Never gone wrong with a Geo - easy to use, reliable, etc. I have used a second chamber before, to try to mimize the pH damage done because of the reactor - I guess, also to try to completely saturate the effluent. I cant speak to Pixel's claims that a "properly running" reactor saturates the...

Sergio - I've used the Dart Gold as my external pump with great results - like any pump - I always recommend to clean it out on a regular basis (3-6 months or so). Another option would simply to go with the 1262 from Eheim, or a Red Dragon or ATB as your wet return. Let me know if you...

No updates on this thread in a few months - so I will try to post a few last pictures...I have some nice shots of the tank just before D-day, and Ill end (for now), with a few shots of the newly cleaned tank, ready to be moved and relocated to my new home. ...I will however, do my best to...

Looking Awesome Bryan!

Hey guys - breaking down the tank, I missed a few snails - call me ASAP if you want them, Ill hold them in a bag for tonight or tomorrow - Ill be out of town tomorrow though - so they will be left on the curb. 650-387-6311 -Kyle

you are more than welcome guys. Glad that many of my corals have found happy homes within BAR. I have a feeling that quite a few of them will be showing up at the swap as well!

not sure If i missed this info...do you have any fish presently in the tank? If you don't, then why are you feeding the tank? If you do have fish, you will be surprised how little food they can get by on. Seriously, I feed my tanks maybe 2x a week, and I feed a few pellets at a time so all...

Thanks everyone! Great to see all of you, please enjoy the frags. -Kyle

not sure any blues are left...everyone wanted them! I'm bringing everything to the meeting...probably be there late, after US v. England. see you then! -Kyle

I've also got a mystery encrusting monti - (looks like a nodosa or danae) - used to be a nice mint green, now brown...needs a good home - has very large bushy polyps, its pretty neat. Also have an encrusted base of Atlantis purple bonzai - needs a home with good algae eaters, since it has a...

Bryan...this is the line for free stuff. And you're too late! Just kidding. Talk to you soon, I have some goodies for you (sort of). -Kyle

wow...look how poplular I am! everyone likes free stuff I guess! Looking forward to finding good homes for all these so that lots of local reefers can add some color! Thanks everyone! -Kyle

Jimmy - Ill see what's left - Ill put you down for some setosa and digi, but they might be gone. See you Saturday, I'm sure there will be something left for ya! -Kyle
