Hatchling

Hatchling (3/13)

  1. Its okay. if BRK sells them I'm planning on buying one there. I'm asking because I'd prefer to support a great local business regardless of price (and yes I know BRK has great hardware prices).
  2. Heh. I was planning on going on Monday. I would have checked the hours before I drove out there though. Really I want to get out there soon anyways, but if they don't have these pumps I would like to order one online sooner rather than later (also I would prefer to buy in cash so my wife doesn't have to find out. )
  3. After a water change I took a small bowl of some tank water and mixed it 50/50 with 3% H202. I then dropped my frag in there for maybe 10 minutes. Rinsed it off and put it back in the tank. The palys opened right back up the next day as good as new. The briopsis did come back though. I repeated this process during my next two water changes and I haven't seen it since. I know this is a popular method for freshwater aquarists but I don't think it's typically used in reef tanks. A lot of people on another board I'm on have tried it with great success. It at least seems to be okay for palys/zoas. I think it will kill some SPS though (some people tried dosing the whole tank with it).
  4. A hydrogen peroxide dip would nip that in the bud real quick. I was in a similar situation with a frag of palys and had great results. Here's some before and a couple days later pictures.
  5. After almost a year, my clownfish finally decided he was ready to settle down. Of course it chose a colony of palys to live in, but I'm not complaining. Anyways...I was pretty excited so I took some pictures. http://steviebe.imgur.com/clowns_new_home
  6. Do you guys sell TOM Aqualifters? I'm looking for an excuse to drive out there.
  7. Yeah. I guess I was a bit vague there. I just know there are people in the club that live really far from the city. I've got a car so I can really go anywhere I need to go. Good call on Woodcraft. I wouldn't have guessed that they rent shop time from their website. I'll give them a call. Thanks for the help everyone!
  8. Hmm. I haven't read that you have to router the edges before. I figured it I couldn't get a water tight seam with Weld-On #4, I could just run a thick line of Weld-On #16 down the seams and it would hold. Then again, I've never done this before so i really have no idea. I figured with such a small container, it wouldn't be that big of a deal. Maybe I'm wrong though.
  9. I'm in Logan Circle. I'm making a small reservoir to hold water for an ATO. I want it to be really small (8"x8"x12") so it will fit in my tiny little stand for my 12 gallon cube. It doesn't need to be too pretty, but it needs to hold water. Any ideas?
  10. I would like to cut some acrylic sheet but I don't have access to a table saw. Does anyone know of a wood shop in or near the city where I could rent time in a wood shop? I'm assuming I can use regular wood blades to cut the acrylic, but it won't mess up their blades or anything will it?
  11. Haha. I can totally see myself doing that! I won't be fragging it for a month or two anyways, so I'm not too worried about it.
  12. This definitely does not help me out. Now there is a controversy! What to do, what to do. Just kidding. This is certainly a more interesting topic than what I originally asked.
  13. Wow. That 2 minute video was packed with good info. Thanks. I guess I really don't need a cutting disc after all. I just figured I'd emulate what the girl at the LFS did when she cut my frag.
