my pistol shrimp is a nuisance at night too...wife is always asking "what is that." Hard to explain that the terrible noise is a shrimp in the tank that you cant see...yeah, that goes over well.

Welcome to BAR! Where are you located? Many folks have some chaeto to offer - I like many others, throw the stuff out on a regular basis. Your tank design looks great so far - what are the plans for fish, corals, etc? I think the C shape is fine - might just want to blow out the...

Not to start a flame here about LFS, but there are many other excellent LFS stores in the east bay. I believe that a few of the stores who sponsor this forum are excellent and would, in my mind, be a better choice than Aquarium Concepts. As for flow in your RSM. The amount of flow you...

Are you stuck on an all-in-one tank, i.e. the nanocube? Honestly, nanocubes are very difficult tanks, becuase of their limited water volume and lack of a sump. I would try to buy a used system from someone here on this board, or Reef central instead. There are some really nice 30-40...

saltyunderground... however, they are not cheep - prices have gone up in the past year. It was a real bummer! I lost a few hundred bucks worth of stock to a few $3 peppermint shrimp! Bad shrimp! Bad!

yep - lost all the parents and juvi's on vacation...berghia and peppermint shrimp do not mix well! I carelessly did not close the lids to the berghia tupperware containers and all were eaten by the peppermint shrimp. I know the shrimp eat berghia, but they still dont seem to eat...

I know, since my piece is the first auction edition!

Sergio - I believe its called "Martian Moon." It was a Tyree auction piece. -Kyle

And with that...its gone! The house is quiet, no blue lights...fish smell mostly gone (crossing fingers - wife comes home in about an hour from her weekend trip!). I have 2 small temporary tanks set up right now with the few remaining pieces that Andy is going to pick up...

Man, sorry to hear about the losses. If you're looking for a controller, I have an ACIII available - just broke down my tank - 2 Ph probes, dc8, dc4hd, plus other stuff. Ill post it for sale in the near future.

Lots of stuff posted for sale - all needs to go this Saturday! http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1749646&page=3 Make me an offer - I also have a bunch of frags of stuff to give BAR members. -Kyle

Cardinals are all spoken for - and most, if not all the coral as well - just waiting to see tonight what will still be left. I promise, Ill post with all that is left as soon as I have a final decision from some folks who are taking the corals. -Kyle

ok folks - almost all the coral is gone - 4x54 powermodule is sold - Beginning this weekend I "should" be able to start actually breaking down the tank. I would REALLY! prefer an offer for the whole setup - there is a lot of stuff. I will have live rock, sand and some frags left. I'd be...

I also wear a pack snowboarding - Its a hydration pack with 950cc? of space in the main compartment - it nicely fits 8-12 dehydration drinks - generally pabst blue ribbon variety. I generally only go on powder days (powder whore for sure), and generally get in 4 runs and have a few frosties...

ok guys - Parting out has begun and everything is for sale - Please email me at kstrache@gmail.com for more details, questions, pictures, etc. Ill wait to sell the 10x54 powermodule until the corals are mostly sold. 48x36x24 acrylic tank - $200 custom critter tanks sump - $300...

Bryan, If you're free- Maybe I can finally stop by your place and check out your setup - send you a PM with my info. -Kyle

Hey guys, So while I do the tank breakdown - I would like to DBTC one frag from each of my corals - I have heard from a number of folks, and it looks like I have a few buyers who will take the majority of the large colonies, which is key! All the rest of the colonies, parts, corals...

Make the trap small enough so that the dotty can get in, but not larger fish - a 2 liter bottle works well for this - the dotty's are inquisitive (in my experience), so drop some mysis in there and let it sit in the tank. Patience is key - you may want to wait a few days after beginning your...

I did get the clowns from LA - I'm willing to include them in the deal to help the sale - they are a beautiful mature pair of A picasso's - they were purchased about 14 months ago. Pictures to follow probably this weekend. -Kyle

I agree Arnold - its just that once I agree to part out, there's no way to go back... However, I know its a lot of cash - so...tonight I'm taking pictures of all the corals, lights, etc. Absent a decent offer in the next few days, Ill part everything out. Best, -Kyle
