A shipment I got today that included an Upside-Down Jellyfish (Cassiopeia xamachana) arrived in two parts: the dome cleanly separated from the tentacle tree. The dome still pulses now and again. Will the dome grow more tentacles before it starves? I'm not sure if I should put it in my tank if it'll just die and pollute it. 'Ric

Green Mithrax Crabs are commonly called Emerald Crabs, and Red Mithrax crabs can be called Ruby Crabs, or more often just Red Mithrax crabs. I didn't used to add iodine supplement to my system, but when I finally did (Tech-I) my Sally Lightfoot molted the next day. So, I think crabs do need iodine to molt, too. 'Ric

I don't think it will work with a tee. The "low circuit" would get all the water flow rather than pushing up 1/2 Atmosphere of water pressure.

These would make for a great jellyfish tank! (let me know if you have any extra tubes!?)

I have a leopard wrasse that twice has been gone for three days at at time. He's gone again now. I worry because he has an eye problem I effectively treated with medicated food before, but if I can't find him I can't target feed him.

I have a green-on-purple ric that split, but otherwise my rics just seem to get bigger and add mouths. A couple have at least three mouths each. I keep debating whether or not I should "help" them split with a razor, but I would hate to do it wrong an kill one. 'Ric

What exactly is "AEFW"??

Seeing no takers, I got the RMA number and it goes back to the company tomorrow. I've been playing with the one I am keeping and so far I love it. Unlike my Nikon 8700, it has yet to even flinch at taking shots, even on my cat's black fur, which the Nikon could never get a lock on. The real test is Israel next week!

"little white anemones"? Do they look like these: Is so, they are Hydroid Jellyfish - no worries. 'Ric

I don't have much of a bubble trap in my set up, so I do get microbubbles blown out of the return. They don't bother me to much in terms of looks, but is there a technical risk or downside to them? 'Ric

In my 54g corner tank, the three blue stripe neons don't mess with my yellow watchman at all. The one older neon does chase around one of the younger ones a lot though. 'Ric

I live in Arlington, VA near the Pentagon... MAP I work downtown at the National Zoo. 'Ric

uuuuuuuuhhh... This is a great thread to read as I am planning on going to Israel in a couple weeks! Do any Reef Nerds live or drive past Pentagon City in Arlingon? I was planning on having someone in my building feed them, but a reefer would be much better!

I just found my six-line wrasse last night in a box I had next to the tank. I recently added a much-larger leopard wrasse that probably chased it out. One morning I found my McCosker's wrasse (prior to getting the leopard) carpet surfed during the night. I have a glass lid for my tank, but I am concerned about heat build up and too much of the light from the pendant above being reflected off of it and not getting into the tank. Does anyone have a glass lid on theirs under their lights? 'Ric

{Thank YOU for bailng me out of my goof!} Maybe as a back-up until my life settles down. If I can't get to setting up the next poll, anyone can feel free to step in and do it without hurting my feelings. I will be busy and traveling a lot until after the New Year.

I thought I counted 20 pics, but there are 21 counting the one on the second page. I tried, but it looks like I can only edit the message part. I can't find a way to add a selection or even delete the poll and make a new one. Can someone with Admin rights add this as another option??!

DOUH!! I didn't mean to weed out anybody! I'll go back and look for your pic and see if I can add it.... Very sorry, 'Ric

Well, since I was the last to post a pic... (+ you asked for it! ) Vote in the poll here: http://www.wamas.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=16947

Vote for your favorite by Midnight on Friday, September 28

Don't be so sure! I've got some pretty good pics and vids out of my Sprint HTC Mogul! :wink: I think it's a great idea for a pic contest, too.

Got it, but why such short notice?? I'm lucky I don't have plans. I will try to get there within that tight window, but I have 66W and toll road rush hour traffic to get through, which can be unpredicable. 'Ric

I believe at some point an online poll will be created with each pic as an item and people will vote on their favorite. The winners will be put on the homepage. 'Ric
