    Very Nice Coral

    I made my first trip to FJW aquarium this weekend. Very nice coral selection....tons of LPS. I think I found my new favorite fish store. I picked up a very nice chalice and a few ricordea. The owner was very interested in my setup and didn't mind chatting for a while.

    Coral ID

    I recently picked up this piece of coral and when i first got it i thought it was a scoly. Now that i've had it for a week or so I am noticing what looks like new mouths forming on the large fleshy parts of the coral. Aren't scoly's solitary? This definitely looks like it's forming a colony and...

    Worm ID

    I was shining around the tank last night when i came across this big guy. When the light hit him he retracted and this was the best picture i could get. I found out that it is some sort of polychaete but i'm not sure if i should be concerned or if i should just let him be.

    A few pics of my tank

    I snapped a few pics of the tank yesterday after a much needed scraping. The tank has been set up for about 4 months now and is still very much a work in progress. Let me know what you think. 8) [/url][/img] [/url][/img] [/url][/img] [/url][/img] [/url][/img] [/url][/img] [/url][/img]...

    Cloudy Tank

    Yesterday when i got home i noticed that my tank was extremely cloudy as though someone had poured milk into the tank, though when i left home the tank was crystal clear. The water tested fine so i did a ten gallon water change to see if that would help clear it up and it did a bit but the tank...

    Where's the best place to get an aquarium built?

    I'm looking for someone to build a custom aquarium locally. Glass or acrylic, either will do. I would like the aquarium to have the false back wall and the overflow cut into it. Where does the best work and for the best price? Tank Dimensions: 22"X18"X16"

    New Piece

    I picked this up on Friday from city pets. It has an awesome green and blue stardust color with bright yellow mouths. I got a really good deal on it too. My camera makes the color look really washed out but it's super cool looking.

    Tunze 9002

    Just picked up a new Tunze 9002 to replace the skimmer in my red sea max. How long does it take to break in a skimmer? Its been running for 2 days and still hasnt pulled anything but crystal clear water. I have to pick the skimmer up almost an inch from where the water line is or the collection...

    Canister Filter Media

    I was wondering what's the best thing/things to run in a canister filter. I currently have the ehfisubstrat and some filter floss. I have heard of people using live rock rubble in canister filters and was wondering if this might be a better choice. Anybody else heard of this/do this?

    Chalice question

    I bought a frag of chalice from city pets yesterday and it looks like it's not doing very well this morning. Everything else in the tank is doing fine and no parameters are out of control, any ideas?

    I recently received a red sea max aquarium from a family member, he gave it to me because the back glass had a crack. I've read lots into fixing and building aquariums and decided to give it a shot. I've got the back glass off and an exact piece ordered to replace it. My problem is that i'm not...

    Skimmer Help!!!!

    I just bought a maxi jet 1200 to replace the stock rio 600 on my bak pak skimmer. When i plug in the maxi jet with the airline it works fine and blows bubbles but when i connect it to the skimmer the maxi jet quits blowing bubbles and starts pushing water out of the airline, any suggestions?
