  1. Very nice!! I am setting up a 14 biocube for the wife and were debating weather or not to bother with a skimmer. Do you run one in you12?
  2. CoralHind I had to move the clam to the bottom. I saw it sneeze and it nearly toppled over the birdsnest!!!! Thanks for the compliments being new to the hobby you always wonder if your doing it right.
  3. Hello everyone. Im new to the club and only in the hobby about a year or so. I started with a 55 and moved up to a 150 tall. So heres a couple of photos of my 150 in wall.
  4. Ok I bought one similar size from radio shack and the fans seem to be working fine. Im sure the output"ma" will determin the speed so id like to know if im under powering or over. Thanks!!
  5. Yes
  6. I need a favor from someone with a 14g biocube. I need to get the info off the transformer controlling the fans. My sticker is worn and can only see half the output. its located under the shield in the hood two screws thanks!!!
  7. The terrarium is pretty very cool in the video also.
  8. If your basement is unfinished you could put up a temporary load bearing wall up directly under the tank. Use pressure treated on the concrete and two top plates. Make sure it fits nice and snug shim any joist that isnt snug.
  9. If its only off a little you could try shims. Basement walls generally arent load bearing. There is usually a beam that runs the center of the house with steal posts supporting the beam. Generally the front and rear walls are load bear if theres a second story the center wall is load bearing or another bean is used depending on the floor layout.
  10. Its the part you plug in the wall with the skinny cord.also you can get a needle and inject lemon juice into the aptasias mouth then pull out after they die.
  11. Thanks we just filled up my wifes 14 bio. Im waiting for new fans and I need a transformer for them too. Can you tell me the output on yours by chance?
  12. Cool and the clam is doing ok with the pc? One 10k one actinic?
  13. What light and combination are you using?
  14. What did you use to start the cycle? amonia shoulda been the first test and one thats present the cycle will begin.
  15. Also check how many conductors on the cable compaired to the ac3 pins. Normal phone cords are one pair.
  16. Whats the bulb configuration? Im still tinkering with my t5s
  17. Looks great!!!!! What lights are you running?
  18. Heres the large clam shell
  19. I used maracyn it cleared it out with no trouble and it hasnt returned. Petsmart and prestine carries it.
  20. From what I saw there wasnt really anything out of the ordinary to photograph. The nautilus display was really cool but they dont allow photos of that display. I did take a picture of the 3ft clam shell ill post it this evening. Too bad its not free like the rest of the museums in the city.
  21. Thanks hoyden for clearing that up. I found that same article. Someone from another club is setting up a trip there although its a nice place to visit I wouldnt make it the main reason for the trip.
  22. I was told there was a large acropora "elkhorn" on display here. We went yesterday and enjoyed the little they had but didnt see any live acropora?!?! We saw the nice sign for wamas. Does the club help service the tanks there? Is there a plan in the future for an elkhorn display?
  23. the eyes are all cleared up thanks for the input.
  24. Ok just got in an inspected everything. The eye hasn't changed but now both eyes are equally foggy and a bit swollen. No personality swings and eating fine. Also a bit of red sheet algae growing but i suspect that's do to my skimmer be full of water d'oh!! The frags are growing from the rtn episode except one, i will drag that in the morning. I test the water tomorrow as well. To be continued...
  25. I will post an update tomorrow. Im on my way back from disney atm only six more fun packed driving hours lol. Coral hind can elaborate on the acro more. Its more brownish now its started to rtn from the base so i fragged the whole colony.
