    Stores on the South East side?

    I'm jumping back into the hobby after a nine year hiatus and am trying to figure out where all the LFS are located now. Obviously I'm aware of the sponsors but are there any other places worth visiting in the Clear Lake / Galveston County area? I'm located in Seabrook.

    Good gunsmith in seabrook area???

    I know there are some gun people on here. My weatherby 30-06 rifle has its safety stuck in the fire position. Can't seem to get it free. Anyone have a reputable gun shop to take it to and have it worked on? Thanks

    Gonna switch over to FW but have a few questions first.

    Since I lost everything this past week and don't want to reinvest my time and money quite yet I am thinking about setting up the tank as a freshwater/brackish puffer tank. My question is this. I would like to use my rock from my reef tank in the new tank but don't know what I should do to it...

    Any wine lovers / collectors???

    One of my other "hobbies" is wine, if you want to call it a hobby. I started drinking it regularly in college and along with my parents have expanded my knowledge and taste in the past 5 years. I have been fortunate enough to meet a friend with a very large personal collection and taste some...

    My 2 year old 15 gallon

    I took a quick pic of my nano today and figured I would share it with yall. It has been set up for about 2 years now and I have only recently started to really focus on its upkeep again. But in that time the few corals that were in it had ample time to grow out (especially my zoas). My...

    ID help

    I noticed a couple of these in my tank tonight, and have no real idea what they might be. They appear to be some sort of anemone, but I don't think they are aiptasia. They have a pink base, white tips, and small green spots in the disk. They do not extend out from the rock, but are rather...

    Help with lighting, MH related.

    I am thinking about setting up a 20 long nano with two 70 watt MHs. I was planning on using the home depot work lights as housings and putting them inside a hood with some fans. My question is how high off the water do I need to have them? I'm hoping I won't have to have an outrageously tall...

    Clear Lake people, have an insurance question

    My wife and I are looking at buying a house in El Lago off of Nasa 1 and are wondering who still insures out there. I have heard that it can be tough to find insurance for that area. Does anyone in the area know of a company to go to for a coastal area? Thanks.

    My new pair

    Got these two yesterday. Put them in my 5.5 gallon nano. The pistol went straight to work making a burrow and the yasha patiently waited. They have since dropped into seclusion (big surprise there), but they seem to have made significant progress with the burrow since last night. Hopefully...

    Aggie05's step back into the Nano World

    Well I have transfered everything over from my 58 and have picked up a few more things to start my 15 gallon. I decided to go back to basics with this tank as I have had great success with basic setups in the past. So that means no skimmer, no fuge, and even no powerheads thus far. Specs...

    Coming back to the Nano world

    Well after I dismantled my 20 long when I left college I setup a 58 gallon tank that I thought would be my next reef. But things have proven to be a lot more frustrating with a larger tank strangely enough. I evap about a gallon to a gallon and a half a day, my tank has never really settled...

    58 gallon tank on third floor of apartment???

    I am going to be moving into a third floor apartment in June and am really starting to think about whether or not I can keep my 58 gallon tank. Besides the restrictions that the apartment puts on tanks, what are the thoughts about having at least 750 pounds on the third floor? It would be up...

    New store on the north side

    I was driving down 2920 the other day and saw a new fish store. I was back up that way today and decided I would stop in. The place is called Ultimate Fish and is located on 2920 about a mile east of Kuykendahl. They have a large section of freshwater fish and probably about 10% of the store...
