It's only for flavor as far as I know....maybe the higher heat it generates helps cook the starch in the beans to thicken them? -Gregory

Oh.. and to bring this thread back to its purpose I shall be attending also. I'll bring a Bombay Ball for the potluck. Its a combination of cream cheese, curry, chutney, peanuts, dried cranberries, and coconut that's spread on crackers... very Yummi -Gregory

When out of lard a pound of bacon rendered down for the fat and cracklings does just fine..... :) However, if your objections are health related this may not be a viable option.... Note: I prefer bacon fat to lard in refritos... but lard makes the most awesome pie crusts!!!! -Gregory

If you please I would like one..... I'll be at the meeting Saturday -Gregory

Very cool... thanks for the replies guys. Everything is pretty stable in the tank. Like I said the montis and pocillipora are doing very well and growing... They were procured at the swap and are already encrusting the rocks with new growth and forming plates. I haven't started testing for Mg...

I am having very good success with monti's and pocilopora (sp?). They look great and are putting on what I consider fast growth from what I was expecting. So now I'm thinking that maybe I'll try an acro or two. 1) Are they really that much harder? 2) Are there some that are more forgiving...

Note: This was with clown fish and they are VERY hardy to begin with. I'm not sure how your other fish would fair with a 20 min dip. Afterwards the original tank was allowed to run for 60 days with no fish so the brooklynella could run its course and die with no host. I think the I read 30 days...

Had this issue a few years ago...... Formilin didn't work. Nor did any of the other remedies and I lost 5 fish..... Based on the advice of Tuberider (Jeremy) I did a freshwater dip. BUT it was a loooooong one. Water was buffered with 1/4 tp of baking soda per gal and brought to temp. The dip was...

Well I'm getting good PE/colour and the growth is noticeable. Just wanted something more concrete. -Gregory

OK... really stupid question. How do I know if my sps are eating? When I had softies and gorgonians it was easy to tell by watching the polyps... with sps there really is no change. My monti digi retracts a VERY small amount. But all the others never change. The food offered is a variety of...
