    lighting upgrade

    you would have seen my ones, made out of polished stainless and welded together. you could jump of these puppies without leaving a mark.
  2. is that the definition for a BB tank?
  3. good point. but nutrient poor tanks is not the problem its that we try and put all sorts of different corals together that can be from different locations, depths etc. that require different conditions

    copperband not eating

    well if he is picking then you would assume he is eating something? just not enough. I would just keep offering him food and see how it goes. How long have you had him? 2 weeks?

    copperband not eating

    This helps a.. Do you have any access to live adult brine shrimp or mysis shrimp, you could try those. They are a hard one to keep, where did it come from, was it eating there, did you see it eat? Do you see it picking at your rocks?
  6. cookie or anyone, what is the latin name of this coral?? the only thing i could find was a leather?????

    fish room

    I hope you are going to wrap this with some kind of plastic...
  8. Was there air going into main tank?, maybe the tank was fine but not for the trap I would leave the food in for 12hrs max
  9. What would the dia be?and height? I assume acrylic? Price range?
  10. The cold should not have been to much of a problem, when stuff comes in from over seas they use ice packs
  11. you can get little batt air pumps, about $20 i think. Better than nothing
  12. hows the o2 in the trap?? do you feed brine shrimp?
  13. how about the temp swing, if it is really cold you don't want your tank on ice. I would say o2 (water movement) and temp first then the rest. lights could be off for a couple of days with little effect.
  14. just made 4ltr of ca and bs up. Took about 10mins. Bs did not take much to dissolve, added warm water first (about 1ltr) then added the rest. Try mixing as much as you can, then leave over night then mix again, you should have no problems.
  15. If it was my tank i would move them down, the damage has aready been done, but you may be able to save them. Can you still see polyps on them, you may have to look at night
  16. what type of light were they under, what are they now
  17. Yes, sitting under my overhang. I feed it 3-4 times a weekon mushie mussel, then the tank get reefroids and reef booster 2-3times a week.
  18. and watch the price shoot thru the roof.. I have been trying doxytetracycline (sp) 100mg. Quite happy with the results so far. Will let you no as things progress
  19. just wack it thru the bench saw or you could try wacking it in half with a chisel..
  20. arcardia bulbs about $160 - $190
