Yep, My next task is to open the wall after I pencil the outline. Also the rocks will be centered, leaving at least 6" behind the rocks to allow for flow and access to Vortechs. I would still like to try some wrasse. Are we certain no one has done it without sand? I had Lee Mar install a piece...

Darn, I have been fighting this hair algae problem and it is kicking my a#$%@. Water changes, snails, hermit crabs, no help. Hope this guy is hungry!! Corals and fish are doing great, I just hate looking at the stuff. My toothbrush is tired of it too!

I just got a small lawnmower blenny to try and rid my 72 bowfront of nuisance hair algae. He is in a 20 gallon tank connected to the return mainfold, so no truly a quarantine. I can isolate this tank however if needed. The system reactors, GFO and carbon operate from and to this tank. Question...

Thanks Denzil, Joe from Aquatic Collection recommended him. He built the cabinet and sump for Roberts front display tank at Neptune. Chris is a pleasure to work with. Very polite, businesslike, and does excellent work. I recommend his services to anyone. I told him what I wanted and he exceeded...

I have lots of plans but they are not compete, in any sense. My intention is to start the dialog and get some good ideas from all of you. First, I have decided to go barebottom for numerous reasons. 1) Unfortunate scratching of the existing tank with granules of sand under the mag float while...

Hello fellow reefers, Happy New Year to you all! I am embarking on a new years journey, my new Lee Mar custom starphire 250, with custom stand and sump built by Chris Tran. I'd like to thank all of the members of Bar for the wealth of experience and knowledge available in these pages. I have...

Excellent thread Gimmito! Finally finished the entire thing. You have a most beautiful reef. I look forward to more updates in the future.

Denzil, Having trouble. I cannot post replies in forum. The blinking cursor never appears in the reply box.

I got a piece of this one too. I would also like to hear the particulars. Very enjoyable swap. It's always a pleasure mixing with a group of friendly reefers.

I can be there @ 10 am. Consider this my rsvp. I'll help with whatever is needed.

For what it's worth, I failed miserably. On the bright side, I am in the process of ordering a new custom starphire. My journal will runneth over in the near future. The scratched tank will become my frag tank.

You guys are inspiration!

Thanks Jeremy, I bought some cerium oxide today from Georges Gems in Hayward. I have a dremel, and he sold me some buffing pads to fit. He was very informative on all types of polishing and indicated that if the cerium oxide didn't produce clear enough glass he had some diamond based compound...

I saw a thread on another forum claiming that CERIUM OXIDE will do the trick. Has anyone tried this method? http://www.thereeftank.com/forums/f6/scratched-tank-gt-lt-164171.html

I have one ready to go. Got it from Coral Reefer a couple months ago. Currently on vacation. Psammacoras rock!

This coral is very nice, it has a different look to it. I got 2 pieces from Mike and put them on plugs. I am ready to pass one along. Will it still be second generation?

That is beautiful!

I suppose over time pH, Ca and Mg would be nice. I am wondering how far off my other test kits are. If a person were to, as Denzil suggested, use all digital tests kits then the standards would be a great way to keep the kits adjusted properly. Incidently, how were we fortunate enough to...
