Couple questions- sorry if they have been answered previously. First, can we get a shirt at the event? Second, if we buy the $40 registration can we go for the day and come home with frags? The site doesn't really say if coral will be for sale or when.

Thanks for the coral deal and even throwing in a couple others that were on my list. Great service and good looking corals!

Anybody know what this is? And, is it good/bad? I have some growing on a single piece of dead coral that some palys grow on. Not sure whether I should be worried. Haven't had any algae that looked like it before.

Where can I find one at a reasonable price

So Ive never ordered a koralia before. I usually just get them from fellow reefers. I ordered this guy for my nano cube, but it doesnt have a plug. Anybody know the cheapest solution?

What supplements should I use for Alk, Calcium and Magnesium? Is there a buffer that covers all three?

So to start I can rely on water changes. But I need to work on getting testing kits for Mag, Alk and Calcium?

14g cube with MH lighting. I used to have a 55 and a 75 that I had SPS in but I want to add 2-3 SPS corals to this smaller tank and see how it goes. Do not currently have supp's or testing kits for Calcium or Alk

I have had SPS in my tanks before but I never dosed or did anything outside of normal water changes- things seemed fine. I am adding: jedi mind trick starbust cap toxic green tort Anyone want to give any suggestions/advice or general dosing information that may be useful? Thanks!

I recently added a GBTA to my tank to compliment my 2 clowns. In the past i have either had clowns that went to the nem right away, and other times where I could never get the clowns to hang out in the nem. In the past it usually goes one way or the other without me being able to fully encourage clowns to try out the anemone. The clowns have not given the nem much notice yet. I know there are several theories out there on this! In the past I have put food in the anemone to coax the clowns to go into it, and I have done the pictures on the side of the tank. Any opinions or advice on this?

For sure- any suggestions or just a regular fan? Have plans for a nem, acans, chalices per my usual tank likings-but I am also considering a couple SPS just to see how they do in the nano. Have had SPS in larger tanks but think it might be worth the challenge in a nano

70 watts I had issues with heat the first couple days but with some change to the room temperature I have gotten it down to normal temps.

Started up again! Here is my 14g cube with MH lighting. More pictures to come as I slowly add corals on my list.

Yep, definitely chalice. Nice!

+1 glue wont work with softies. Just use string or rubber band to loosely hold the bottom down on a rock or frag plug and a couple of weeks later it will be attached

Thanks everyone! I am set up with a 14g biocube with metal halides Cant afford fish or corals yet on my budget but will post pictures as things get going

Thanks! I am starting up again. I have a thread under FS/WTB with what Im looking to get. I need all the basics again such as hydrometer, salt, tweezers, magnet cleaner, etc

Thanks everyone! Posted a thread for what Im looking for and became a member!

Are there any saltwater fish stores in DC? If not, what is the closest or any accessible from the metro?

Hey there! I just moved to DC for law school. I am from Colorado and did my undergrad in Wyoming. I had several saltwater tanks, ranging from nano to a 75g. I miss the hobby and am looking to get back into it. That said- trying not to spend the kind of money that I used to with my big tank. <edited> Thanks!
