  1. caulerpa attack!

    It has been quite a while since I have posted anything on here due to time restraints and my schedule. I did have a cyanobacteria problem which I have not had in about 6 months but you know if it isn't one thing it's another and now I have a problem with two different caulerpa infestations. Caulerpa taxifolia and grape caulerpa the grape sprouted up within the last week oddly enough nothing has been introduced to the tank in about 10 months so I assume it was all just laying dormant this whole time. ...
  2. auto top off up and running

    It has been a while since I have had the time to make any changes or upgrades to my tank let alone post anything on here but this morning I finally got around to getting my diy auto top off up and running to get this one mounted I got a left over piece of pvc from my closed loop setup and used a bastard file and my dremel to cut a notch on both sides of the pipe so it would have a snug fit over the acrylic that makes up the sump. using heat shrink and but clamps as well as wire nuts i not only extended ...

  3. Update and stock question

    Well the 7 gallon has officially been moved...as of last night it has been moved from one room down three stairs to another and I can honestly say I never want to have to do that again. Unfortunately during the transition my anemone that was already looking a little ill took a turn for the worst and is no longer with us but fortunately the rest of the tank and occupants seems to be doing fine with the new location the corals are not in their final positions nor is all the rock work but for now ...

  4. Spent Father's Day and Tuesday with the tank.....

    My wife and son were kind enough to let me sit around the house, leave me alone, and work on the tank all day father's day and today. I completed 2 out of 3 things I set out to accomplish. The First things was to tackle my Ph issue, I noticed while the canopy was off the Ph would rise meaning that it was not getting enough fresh o2 in the transfer between the top of the water and the air so as you can see by the pictures I set out to try and remedy that particular issue. I have a cat the jump on ...

  5. clownfish are starting to get a little out of hand...

    Well as some of you may remember I recently posted on how my ocellaris female was starting to ravage my hands, well it seems to be progressively moving towards me and my poor yellow tail damsel as they are now keeping it isolated to it's own little area and do not allow any other fish in half of the 75 gallon except for the small clown goby. I write because I am considering taking my ocellaris pair that I have had for over a year in to trade them for a new pair I believe that I have given them ...
