    Who sells LRS food in the Bay Area?

    Neptune definitely has it. Although I may or may not have cleaned Robert out of Reef Frenzy a few days ago ;)

    Just got a pair of lionfish

    Last year I was diving in Belize. The DMs all had trident style spears to get any Lion fish. The nurse sharks in the area love to eat the dead fish even though they don’t hunt them. Consequently by the end of the dive we had 7 or 8 sharks literally bumping into us. Never had that happen before.

    AVAST Plank Feeder Q&A

    I’ve had mine down in my sump for about six months. I’m using a clear tube with some holes drilled for mixing vs the included mixing pump. My sump does get a lot of flow given it drives 630 gallons of display tanks. I clean the tube out every couple weeks.

    Hawaii snorkeling and coral recommendations (Kona, Kauai near Poipu)

    I’ve dove off of Poipu a few times. They do have shore dives although both times I tried they had had crazy rains which caused the vis to be so bad they canceled. I told them I’m a Monterrey diver so 25’ for me is a great day ;) Not much coral to speak of, although the lava tubes and underwater...

    DBTC: Sprung's Burning Bush

    Got it. What about a Foxface? I put all my tangs in my big tank and now they love to splash about and break any coral that I mount on the top. Unicorn and Naso tangs in particular are total jerks and hate my aquascaping choices ;)

    DBTC: Sprung's Burning Bush

    Does anyone keep this in the main tank or will the fish demolish it?

    What a really fun event! My daughter Lucy had a blast looking and picking out all the coral. So far everything has acclimated well in our grow out tank. I’ll post some pics after I get everything into its final spots. Thanks again to all the volunteers who made this happen!!!!

    DBTC Black Widow BTA

    I have a CSB and they are notorious for not getting along with other bubble tips. Typically only one survives the chemical warfare. I love the look of the black widow but haven’t been willing to risk my CSB to add one yet.

    I F’ed Up - killed my kids eel… advice/suggestions

    Oh that sucks. I do know Robert has a snowflake eel at Neptune Aquatics that he has had for about a year, so very well acclimated. Although I have heard stories that he has bitten most of the staff who were not paying attention … He keeps trying to get me to take it but boy one eel is enough.

    My CSB split!

    Came back from a few day trip to discover my CSB split! He was/still is huge. I had to put a guard on the wave maker closest to him for fear he would get a tentacle sucked in. I’ve heard they very rarely split in captivity. What’s funny is I had two clown fish paired with him and it seems in the...

    Copperband Butterfly feeding when away?

    I have a fridge for dosing Reef Nutrition (Oyster, Phyto & Roti) using DOS pumps and a fridge with a voided warranty. What fish foods are you fridge feeding?

    Copperband Butterfly feeding when away?

    I’m switching all my auto feeders to the Plank. So much better designed. Once I didn’t get the drum fully latched in and when it went to feed the whole thing pitched into the tank. Talk about a mess.

    Show off what you got from CFM!!

    Ah thanks for the link! I asked and the dealer said he had kept it for over six months with the rest of his BTAs without an issue. I run my system at 78. I’ll report back if it makes it As a side note diving in Japan is on my bucket list. Would be wild to see a whole grouping of these in the wild.

    Sounds like fun! I’m in and could definitely bring something. Good call for the 19th vs the 20th when the 49ers play the Chiefs. My 11 year old daughter is suddenly really interested in football and insists we go to the game ….

    Show off what you got from CFM!!

    I picked up this guy. Supposedly called a Japanese Tube Anemone, but searching the internet tubes doesn’t turn up anything. Robert thinks I just spent a lot of money on some pretty aptasia We’ll see how it does. Sure is bright though, you can see even just sitting on the kitchen counter it...
