  1. The 60g cube is on its stand

    Last year after MACNA, I got a 60g cube tank made by AGE. It's a very pretty starphire glass tank with a PVC base. Undrilled, it needed an overflow. It's been in the backroom waiting for that to get done, and time passed like usual. About two weeks ago, the steel stand arrived which I blogged about. It's going to house the anemones and clownfish, so I need it ready to go now that I'm about to transfer all my livestock from the 215g into the 400g and the 60g at the same time.

  2. Lionfish don't belong in the Atlantic Ocean

    Around Bermuda, lionfish are being studied by divers wearing rebreathers. They need this specialized gear to be able to descend to 200' and have time to stay down long enough to study them more closely. CNN shared the story in today's news:

    While diving last month, Jessica shots this video of a lionfish being taken out by one of our dive party. Lionfish lay 30,000 eggs or more at a ...
  3. A few iPhone pictures from today

    I was looking in my tank today and enjoying the corals. Everyone is about to be moved to the big tank, so I took a few quick pictures to share. What prompted this was my Bubble Tip Anemone, which was actually forming bubbles. I have seven currently, and none have displayed bubbles in a long time, so this half-hearted effort was still different from the norm. It would be nice to know why they have bubbles, and why they lose them.

  4. Help find a thief ($1000 reward)

    If you've been in this hobby for a while, you've probably heard of or run into Dirk. He brings a truckload of equipment to reef-related events throughout the year. Recently, he was robbed - they took his entire truck and all of his inventory in the process. He's looking for any tips from the saltwater community. If you've run into anyone that seems to have a truckload of drygoods for sale, it may be stolen. This is Dirk.
