    Has the hobby diminished in the Houston Area?

    Agreed, I also think it would be helpful to ask the LFS's to get people to join Marshreef. Might add some interest when they see others involved. Yep, I saw the same after Harvey. I saw one guy throwing away a 200g tank, equipment, corals, everything. Was really sad. He said that he lost...

    Has the hobby diminished in the Houston Area?

    I recently returned to the hobby since leaving in 2012. Back then there was a lot more activity on the forum. Also, I am a home inspector by trade. I have inspected over 9000 homes and about half are occupied. However, only a handful of those occupied homes had saltwater tanks. When I am in...

    Is the RODI and mixing station still available? If so, I would like to get it all. I recently started back into reefing after a 12 year layoff.

    Getting back into Reef Tanks

    Went to FJW which was my "goto" place about 12 years ago. I understand that overall, coral prices have gone up. I just wanted a couple of starter frags that would be easy to keep to get the tank started. But the Zoa prices were ridiculous. I bought a Zoa frag from the $30 tank because...

    Getting back into Reef Tanks

    Yes, that is the Xaqua return. I had a little problem with a leak when I first set it up. The leak was due to a small chip in the glass where the Xaqua o-ring seals. I drilled the holes in the glass from the inside out which left chips on the outside surface. Because the sealing o-ring on the...

    It is now running. 90l with a AI Prime light. DIY 20g Long Sump and Nyos skimmer. Just has some hermits and snails until I get through the ugly phase.

    Getting back into Reef Tanks

    Been out of the reef tank hobby since 2011. Still been doing freshwater stuff. But going to start back small with a 60p (17 gallons) reef tank. The sump will actually be larger. Going to use a 20g long for the sump. Because of the sump size, I will be building my own stand. I will post...

    Power issue

    On Monday, My son called me after I left work and he said, "Dad I cannot get into the house, it looks like the power is off". I called Centerpoint and they said a transformer blew and they were in the process of replacing it. They said the power has been down since 1PM which means the tanks...

    Bubble Algae Death

    I had a massive outbreak of Bubble Algae in my BC14 so I started doing massive water changes at lower salinity. Either the lack of nutrients or the lower salinity started destroying the algae. Here is an example of the results. http://youtu.be/Z-c_jnKRPo0

    For Giggles

    I have a 29g tank that I was about to give away. But decided to upgrade the stock light to LED. Just grabbed some aluminum u channel, 12 LED's, a couple of small fans, a Meanwell driver and a 5v wall wart. Everything is snugged into the original fluorescent fixture and the original on/off switch.

    I tried uploading an Avatar under the Settings menu using the remote file option. It says that the image cannot be more than 50x50 pixels..... That is kinda small. I looked at other members avatars and they are quite large. Any ideas?

    Cable rip off rant

    Ok, I have to rant a bit. I wanted to change all of the composite cables between my DVD player and TV to one HDMI cable. So I went to Best Buy to buy a simple 4ft cable. I could not believe the prices. The cheapest 4 ft. HDMI cable was $25 bucks. The last HDMI cable I bought from EPO was...
