    So angry right now ... cleaning lady unplugged aquarium pumps (by accident) and my last two fish are dead.

    Yep Arnold ... still here and with the same pairs producing! Just keeping it low key ;-) Vince, glad to see the girls are putting those beds to great use! :-D

    So angry right now ... cleaning lady unplugged aquarium pumps (by accident) and my last two fish are dead.

    Hey Vince - not sure how we might connect, but happy to give you a couple of my clowns to replace the ones you lost ... PM me and we can try to figure out something.

    Changing Lighting

    Hi all … full disclosure - have been with the club for what seems like almost 20 years now, but am not current at the moment so can't post in all forums (thus, this post here :-) ). I recently have done some switching out of lighting items to move from various MH (remember the Viper clip on?!?)...

    Black Storm X Black Darwin cross

    After a few months of age, the alpha fish in a group will eventually mature into a female. Also, a clown of more than 6-12 months old will naturally turn female if alone in a tank. This is why it is hard to be certain that you have a male when purchasing even a small clown … it could have been...

    Live Brine Still Available Anywhere?

    Thanks guys - appreciate the suggestions. I have cultures of live BBS going, but wanted something larger and live to trigger feeding mechanism. On a couple of the side questions, I do on occasion gut load BS or BBS with either Reed Rotigrow or rotifers that were loaded with Rotigrow. This...

    Live Brine Still Available Anywhere?

    Hi folks ... long time since posting, but still active in the hobby. I was wondering whether any stores in the bay area still sell live brine? The ones that used to that I knew of are no longer around, but I imagine some must still set it. My QT inhabitants might appreciate some :-). Thanks...

    Who actually runs a QT/Hospital tank?

    Hey Vince, I have a dedicated QT for all fish, and dip all corals then keep them in a "QT Area" in the sump system for observation / growout before going into the main tank.

    Need clown breeder experience

    Thanks :-) ! You're correct that the pair will likely go off the nest for some period of time due to the move. Some rare pairs that have historically been prolific may start nesting again quite quickly, but it really depends upon the particular pair. If I can be of help in the future, just...

    Need clown breeder experience

    Hey gang :-) Still around, just been super busy with work so popping in here only from time to time. Still breeding - have fancy ocellaris, Darwins, and true percs (Picassos and limited onyx) on the nest. Happy to help with advice, etc -- just PM me as that's the best way to connect.

    Going back to Metal Halides from LEDs

    Hey Vince, I've been having a similar experience in my 3' deep 225 where I've been getting color fading in spots and then slow wasting away of chalices; also have had some euphyllias slowly wasting away. The tank was great to start when I set it up about 5 years ago running 4 x AI units about...

    neon goby babies in my refugium

    In order to raise these you'll need a variety of live micro food such as S type rotifers and the like. They take a really long time to move out of the pelagic fry stage and settle out, but it can be done. I've kept them alive to about 40 days, but they need super clean water and consistent...

    Breeding Angelfish

    Gresh, I may take you up on that. All my hatching tanks are now filled with clownfish fry so I need to get those to the next stage to free up a tank. The pair puts down nests every couple of days so it will not be a problem to get a group going. I've gotten a good handle on getting a larger...

    Breeding Angelfish

    I have both S and L ... the S have been great to get the fry going, but I need something bigger to get them to the next stage. I may try another batch with increasing the % of L as they get larger to see if that works, however I think there is something missing nutritionally between the L and...
