    Finally got a tank!!

    Looks great! Your zoas look really healthy. How do you like the reefer nano? I've got the 170. I've got some nice Zoas growing; vitamin c, emerald on fire, salted agave, blondies, rastas, utter chaos, groovy grape, rainbow smoothie, sunrise sakura and a few others, but most won't be ready for...

    tskiller's Reefer 170

    In my best protoss; CARRIER HAS ARRIVED I'm pretty stoked that my Cardinals have been spawning, but this is the first time they've been successful. The first two times didn't result in eggs that I saw. Unfortunately, I don't have the time or equipment to try and rear them to adulthood...

    DBTC: Phytoplankton and Rotifers

    This may be a better fit for a different thread, but how hard are these to raise? I might be needing my own supply soon but I'm not sure I want to take the next step into active breeding or not.

    Apex Salinity probe versus refractometer?

    Hey rygh, before you calibrated the probe, how long did you let the probe soak in water? When I first got my conductivity probe I got really wacky readings for a couple weeks. Apparently that is normal. I let it sit in the probe mount in my sump for two weeks. After I re-calibrated with a fresh...

    Algae Scrubbers might be too good

    I think you are right. It's possible to have water that is TOO clean and you don't get good tissue growth, or worse. I think that's the cause of the burnt tips that ULNS run into - the skeleton grows quicker than the tissue because while there is plenty of trace elements and CA/ALK, there isn't...

    Fish and coral food

    My cardinals are too picky for pellets, so I mostly use frozen (rods and now fish frenzy.) I have a few kinds of fauna marin pellets that I might throw in now and then. Maybe once every two weeks I spot feed my coral with reef roids and acropower.

    Anywhere to get LRS Reef Frenzy locally other than Diablo Corals?

    With a bit of serendipity, Neptune Aquatics now carries this. I got a pack, and I'm impressed. It seems cleaner than Rod's, less cloudiness in the tank. Nice chunks of food in it. Fish seem to like it!

    Super cute and small Wart Skin Frog Fish at Cali Reef Co

    Really tempting but I'm not sure it would do well in my SPS dominant tank. I cant remember exactly but don't they do not so great with high flow? It might also eat some of my other fish. How hard is it to feed? Does it require live food or training to eat frozen?

    VAG-COM cable

    Is audi special? I have an OBD2 AL319 reader for my Vibe, but its just generic OBD2. VAG-COM sounds special? I don't know anything about Audi cars. :/ sorry. If this would work, I'm in Sunnyvale.

    tskiller's Reefer 170

    Well, I got some more Zoas. A nice amount, some Volcanos PE, Salted Agave, Blondies, rainbow smoothie, and a few more. I've got some pics! I also have some pics of growth on a couple of my SPS coral. I picked up a Springer's Dottyback who seems pretty cool so far! Watching him swim about...

    Any LFS still carry "fresh" live rock?

    I bought my real live rock from T&T aquarium. They had some in stock at the beginning of the year, but I haven't been back since. I will say this though, if I was going to restart my tank, I would opt either for dry/manmade rock, or the Florida maricultured rock from TBS.

    Feeding Chat

    I feed once a day in the evening when I get home from work. I rotate through half a cube of PE Mysis, or Half a cube of cyclopeeze, or a small chunk of rods food. Occasionally I will toss in some fauna marin soft spirulina or marine base energy, but not too often since my cardinals refuse to...

    red sea reefer tanks - anyone got opinions?

    I haven't replaced my ATO yet, (plan on a tunze and a nice big 15-20 gal reservoir) but would you also mount the high in the float arm area? This is the compartment that raises and lowers as water evaporates or you add water.

    Anywhere to get LRS Reef Frenzy locally other than Diablo Corals?

    It's supposed to be the bees knees or something. Really clean really freshly made. 8oz would last me 3-6 months so yeah, its expensive, but its not THAT expensive since I only have a few fish. I guess I could order it from premium aquatics but the shipping is completely unreasonable since its...
