  1. Question...Maybe Idea?

    Hey all,

    Been a little while since I've posted anything. I've been stupid busy here lately. I pop in here from time to time and read the latest blogs etc...

    On to my question or maybe a idea I am sure someone has thought of, maybe even tried. Let me start by prefacing that I hate filter socks in my sump. I have tried all different sump socks...

  2. Aqua Cultured Fungias

    when I moved my corals from my old 150G tank to the frag setup (around 1.5year ago) had this purple plate with green tentacles die. I just tossed the skeleton in the back of the frag tank. months back saw these growths on it which initially I thought were some Mojanos... only to realize afterwards that Funghias ave been known to emerge on the skeletons of dead ones...

  5. To foam or not to foam......

    I am getting set up to receive my new tank,which will go on a metal stand. Should I use that white insulation stuff under the tank to take up any gaps. I also plan on using a piece of plywood on top of the stand. The pic of the stand shows how versatile it is as it is upside down.
