Tank Entry

  1. In about 10 days...

    ... a delivery truck with 10 guys is going to show up with the 400g, bring it inside and put it on the stand. Marineland's email today wanted to coordinate the delivery date, which will be Thursday the 5th or Friday the 6th. I have to say, not having to lift it up on the stand with a bunch of friends' help sounds fantastic.

  2. Upcoming MACNA trip: Waste collector project

    For about a year, I've wanted a waste collector for the protein skimmer. You may recall a blog where I was testing a float valve in the skimmer's collection cup to disable one pump and stop it from overflowing.

    Well since I have no fish in my aquarium and won't have any for at least 2 months I decided that I should shift my attention to gathering the rest of the equipment for my aquarium. I don't feed my fish on a daily basis in order to prevent from fouling the water. But I did notice that my sand bed looked a little dirty and I could see areas our the lower perimeter of the live rock that was accumulating waste. One of the things I have learned from the many books that I have read is I need to focus ...

  5. First Ever Full Blown Aquarium Disease.

    So the last fish inhabitant of my aquarium is about to pass on and after taking a full battery of water parameter test and going with everyone's suggestions on what I thought was a Bristle Worm problem I think the following photographs below would most likely point to some type of water born disease except I'm not expert on marine disease so if you have any thoughts than please chime in. It doesn't seem to affect any of the inverts, clams or corals within the aquarium. Your assistance in advance ...
