  1. Of course you should bring chocolate cake - we may not let you in the door if you don't!
  2. Neither, really, but with a clean slate
  3. You just know he is going to say freshly hatched BBS, don't you?
  4. I would check first, I think he only has his coldwater tank going now. http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showt ... ?t=1080179 See you after you have read the 17 page thread!
  5. Steve is a member here, he hasn't posted for a few years...
  6. Melev's Reef is pretty droolworthy as well... http://www.melevsreef.com/
  7. Pssst.. Nav, do you think she will go for one like Steve Weast's tank? http://www.oregonreef.com/sub_philosophy.htm
  8. Yeah, I know it is only a fraction of the litreage of the RSM, but when you lift the hood of the 250, there are a few T5 lamps in there 8)
  9. Would that be on the XT network, or not?
  10. The tank is awfully small at 50 litres - ours is 108 with no sump and I think stability wise it is a nightmare, if it were not in our basement temperatures would be a problem and it would require a chiller. The tank is too small for the Blue Tang - they grow to 300mm They give no brand names for the equipment, I would not stray from Deltec and Tunze as far as skimmers and streams go, but that is my biased opinion
  11. This may be the case for your type of water, but up here the tapwater is high in phosphates, so RO water is a must.
  12. Not necessarily - but look at all the preeetyyyy colours - you won't be able to resist long!
  13. There is an article here, which is also at the head of the Saltwater section. http://www.fnzas.org.nz/index.php?PG=marinearticle01
  14. The non coral friendly fish are usually the ones that grow quite big for a tank such as a RedSea. I gave a book to Loopy about corals (but it may be resident at Wilson's place) ask around to see if you can borrow it, it's by Eric Bourneman. I also have a couple of books you can borrow as long as you promise to give them back - one on setups by Bob Fenner and one on fish by Scott Michael. I can give them to Caryl to take down your way if you like, let me know before Sunday.
  15. My niece texted her Mum from work asking her to bring her some gay fever pills urgently...
  16. And again... http://tvnz.co.nz/national-news/visitor ... nd-3366028
  17. I hate it - I don't even truncate my words when I text, I suppose having a qwerty keyboard helps. Don't tell Sam, he will be calling me a fossil again...
  18. I use the 10 litre Pure Dew containers for water top up, even then I have trouble not causing storms in the tank, especially when you start with it full and it glops into the tank and splashes everywhere. Do you want some to try with? I can load poor Wok up with a couple to take up there?
  19. You mission, should you choose to accept it... Is to develop a tank filling apparatus that will not disturb the sand using only materials from the recycle bin... Actually what sort of filter are you using - can't you make some sort of filling mechanism that replicates this? If it is returning water at 400 odd litres per hour and not cause a sandstorm, surely you can do something similar?
