  1. Clueless as to why it was used to do whatever it did and why and what.
  2. Interesting...And not being a science type, why did they measure for that? How is that useful?
  3. TOTM is running again... To me the amazing part is the super wow factor when you see it in person, then start really seeing the color, variety and clarity of the tank. I hope you put a chair in there, Marina, since there wasn't one before! But then no one would leave...
  4. Forgot to mention: He can come with his full 20 gallon long tank set up.
  5. I have a single deep red tomato clownfish available for donation to a school. It was captive bred & born here by member and raised out in my tank. It is healthy, about 3.5." and about 3 years old. It is a very quiet,shy one. It Loves to hide in his caves and peer out. Marine spectrum pellets and frozen myisis shrimp are what he normally eats. It is free. I am going to need to consolidate down to 1 tank and would like a class to enjoy him.
  6. Go slowly. Some like to use an ice cube to begin to detach the foot. Others just sell the rock with it. I have done ice to start then used an old credit card to gently pry the food off. Several members have used powerheads blowing towards the 'nem to loosen it and put a rubble rock next to it to hopefully reattach itself to. Hth.

    Congratulations, Troy! Hope your wife is doing well with recovery. Just a warning....you could be back as soon as he wins the goldfish as a prize bcs then you will want to show him something better like a clownfish! Lol. Have a great time enjoying parenting!
  8. Well, to add to the discussion, I have the black ones pictured at the beginning. They ate the red slime/mat/film that had developed in my tank and brought it under control. I had tried other things like removing it or scrubbing but to no avail. Put 6 of these in and in a week it was gone. They bury themselves at night and come out when I turn the lights on fully. I have another tank with both tiny snails and these but haven't seen any predatory or overly reproductive issues. On the other hand my nassarius don't ever last more than a month while both of these types last and reproduce reasonably. Do we have a pinned topic with photos.and descriptions for good vs. bad vs. caution with these parameters?
  9. By any chance is the tank going to Fairfax Inova on Gallows rd.? We have spent many long hours & days there.
  10. Lol on the MIL bedroom! If you can I would have someone come look. Ybe is a good choice.
  11. ...so your not tempted to set up rockwork in the hallway. Lol! I say go for it! Can't scratch up the tank with a rock slide if it is not in the tank! You could also start to make it live by seeding it & letting it sit in SW with a power head. It cuts down on wait time.
  12. Tightline-You need one of those cold wraps that entertainers use. You wet it, freeze it, then wrap/put on your neck to keep chilled. It definately works. Meantime Enjoy the bass!
  13. What about the new vet here on WAMAS? Was his board name Vetdoc? Hmmm.... Maybe vetdog?
