What the cabbage is pickling lime (i asume its something used in the pickling of foods) and is it an american thing or can you get it here???

ok, cause i have a four foot lid that i made for my tank that i dont need and its got 4 4' tubes in it

hey surphew what size was your tank??

mine closes about one hour before lights out every day

well no amount of smoke and mirrors is going to make my tank bigger i dont think i can risk the hydnophora in a tank my size and not with the proximity i am planning to place the sps that i get (not that close but i'd prefer not to kill any pretty frags i get from people)

How many watts of T5 are there?? you might want to move it up

from the little bits that i can make out it looks to me to be lack of lighting, the exact same thing happened to the xenia i gave to various people that only had minimal lighting (one was a LFS that has since upgraded its lighting as it has started bringing in corals) if i remember correctly you have a Via aqua tank??? if so the answer is quite simple, get one or two more PCs and throw them in the dead space in the lid (check out www.nano-reef.com if you need some diy tips as they do it a lot over in Usa) the guys here are pretty knowledgable when it comes to techy things as well. the xenia will recover from its present condition (the feathery look will come back and the pulsing as well

is this the monti capricornis that you where advising against iduncan?? its pretty http://images.google.co.nz/imgres?imgur ... s%2520(Feb).htm&h=600&w=800&sz=66&tbnid=SRdms4sTdloJ:&tbnh=106&tbnw=141&start=11&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dorange%2Bmonti%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26sa%3DG

actually reef i'd love to come see your tank when im up next, (and if you have some frags even better) 1 cm a wek is crazy, ( by crazy i mean wow) it wouldnt take long to fill my tank. might have to stay away from the hydnophora if the tenticles come out that far

lights not really an issue as the place i have set out for sps in my tank is faily high up and is right under the 150W mh, how long are the sweepers on Hydrophora? i could always keep it a little further away from the others, are all monti's the same?? or are the branching easier to keep than the scrolling or encrusting?

Hey any one have some suggestions as to what a good sps is to start off with?? anyone with some small frags let me know.

with what would you cover it?? a towel, peice of wood??

my clown fish eat out of my hand and my cleaner shrimp will actually "clean" my hand get a marine tank, the salt makes them smarter

awesome caryl they didnt start developing stutters or swimming in crooked lines?? i think ill doo some painting tonight

is there any problem with painting the sides of my tank??? fumes???

why??

scary i assume you knew the grouper was in your tanK????

thats pretty cool are there any signs of movement? what are the chances of survival?

what do they look like??

sevrums are nice

it's hard to do one that size without a sump where wil you put the skimmer??

very nice fish

so does the four way work in conjunction with the motor your waiting on or does the alternating motor replace the 4 way unit?

when where you guys looking at ordereing?

i need an excuse because i usually spend money when i go (even if i already have absoluty everything that i need) and yesterday was pay day
