    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.

    MEMBERS ONLY Frag Swap - October 19th in the South Bay (PLEASE RSVP)

    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...

    Peninsula tank questions

    Wow CDA really is gone. That sucks. They built both my tanks and did a great job. They had a three to four month backlog last I checked. I wonder what happened.

    Peninsula tank questions

    I have a big 10’ long peninsula tank. Absolutely love it. Almost like having two different tanks. For the flow mine needed to have a separate closed loop system installed to increase the water movement. Good luck! That is a beautiful tank!

    Neptune Trident NP and new DOS!

    Really straight forward. Maybe takes 5 minutes.

    TheRealMadMax Monster Tank Build

    That’s a good tip. Currently if filled to the top that is about one month of dosing. I was considering adding small magnetic stir bars that would mix everything on a schedule. One more thing to break and having magnets enclosed in plastic submerged in liquids over time could cause a problem.

    Avast plank extension mixing tube

    My setup. I am not getting as much water movement as I like. I might try cutting some slits in the clear PVC to create more whirlpool.

    TheRealMadMax Monster Tank Build

    Got the dosing DOS system all setup with Robert’s help. Will give me peace of mind when traveling. Also hoping some of the NPS I’ve been struggling with will be happier.

    The Money Pit: How much are you willing to spend on livestock?

    I’ve got two Haddonis I paid over $1K for each. I’m such a sucker for them even though they usually proceed to trash half the corals in the tank before settling into a spot they like ;)

    Avast plank extension mixing tube

    Maybe not, the return area has a lot of water movement but not whirlpool effect. That’s why I think I will still need to use the included mixing tube and mixing pump to ensure the food makes it into the water column.

    Avast plank extension mixing tube

    I’ve been considering mounting mine in my sump return. I have tried adding the freeze dried food manually. Only issue I’ve seen is sometimes the food never makes it off the surface and just floats for the entire day. The other issue has been some of the big pieces get stuck on the return mesh...

    2 PSA -general apex and trident alternate housing

    Oh no! That could have been so much worse. How did the Trident flood? Anything to do with the alternate housing? I have been so busy I haven’t gotten a chance to repackage mine yet.

    Where to get chaeto in the south bay area?

    Pretty sure Robert harvests a good amount of chaeto from my sump every month ;) He says it is to feed the hermit crabs …..

    300 Gallon Tank Substrate Media Poll

    I love sand. I have a pretty big cleanup crew so they keep the bottom looking nice. Also getting a lot of good mushrooms growing in on one side which is really cool effect.

    7/19 Behind the Scenes Steinhart Aquarium Tour!

    I would love to go! A few years back my daughter and I did an overnight at the Academy of Sciences as part of the YMCA Adventure Guides program. She wanted to sleep in one of the tunnels under the fish ;) Really fun! Not that you get much sleep on those overnights ….
