    I'm back!

    In September 2009 I emptied my 65g tank and sold it to a friend thinking I would be moving out of Texas for work. It's been nearly 3 years and I'm still here! So I bought my tank back from my friend and had it up and running in April. Thought I'd get back on Marsh and reconnect with my fellow...

    Why?

    As I was staring into my pico today I thought to myself, "why bother with sand in a pico?" Don't get me wrong, I have sand in my pico, and my biocube and before I took it down; my 65g. I just thought that a BB pico would be easier to take care of, i.e. clean increase water volume etc. I...

    Who's got Harlequins?

    So I am curious to know how many marshians currently have harlequins and how they like them. I want to get a pair but don't know if I want the expense of feeding them. I like the idea of having 3-4 Choco Stars in my sump to use for harvesting limbs (a-la The Island) but that brings my initial...

    Homemade Filter Socks

So today I went to the fabric store, bought a yard of 100% Polyester Felt($4.99) along with some plastic stuff($.99) for the ring, all for $5.99! I asked my lovely wife...

    12/28/2010 R.I.P. Sprinkles the Snowflake Eel

    You will be missed lil buddy we went through alot, thanks for scaring my family the first time you lept out months ago. When my decorator crabs became a nuisance you took care of them for me. You were just plain cool. You died doing what you love; most chasing feeder shrimp and trying to get...

    Anemones have no brain

    This morning I wandered past my tank and thought something is not right... everything looked fine except... what's that in my k1400? Last week my other GBTA floated into my powerhead chopping itself the bits (fortunately I was able to gather all remains and avoid a massive water change)...

    New Sump... Old Fears

    Well after waiting for what has seemed to me a very long time, I finally found myself a sump I could afford (thanks to a fellow MARSH member selling cheap). The only problem is I am nervous about setting it up on my 65RR tank. I only started in the hobby about this time last year! This is...

    r_jay's nano/pico thread

    Here are a few pictures of my BC29. This tank got me started in the hobby in December. When I upgraded to a 58 then to a 65 it went dry and into the garage and I tried to sell it. When I would look at it day after day whenever I went into the garage I had pangs of remorse and decided to keep...

    Top for aquarium

    I have a 58 gallon Oceanic aquarium that has no top and I want to get a jawfish. The problem is I don't know what to do for a jump proof top. I am unsure acrylic would would keep from warping under my clamp on HQI Lamp. Glass would be a nice choice but heavy and theres the chance of breakage...
