  1. West Coast Coral source minus one

    I used to drop in to ReefHotSpot a few miles from LAX to pickup a coral or two. Noticed their website said, under construction. Well, I took a drive and found that "under construction" meant LITERALLY .... Empty warehouse all tanks gone, building for rent. Spoke to a guy inside and he said his buddy bought the biz. That's all I got. Don't know when or where they will resurface. The previous owner had redid the whole place and built it out nicely. Won't speculate on why, could be the ...

  4. Clown Fish

    I've noticed now for the second time that one of my 2 clowns has a dark spot on it. The 1st time I noticed it, I believe that it disappeared on it's own. I've only had these 2 clowns for about a month now and was wondering if anyone else is has ever seen spots on clowns....( No, it's not a "funny" lol.... ) Although, I do sometimes hear circus music in the background...


    Thanks all,

    Aaron
