Count me in!!

Some lousy close ups:

I have 6 large frags of that leather waiting for your butt to get over here. Thanks Kim.

Thanks. I also switched the frag and refugium areas in my sump. My frag area is twice as big now and I put a D120 over it.

Thanks Laura! I'm going to try to get some close ups tonight, but my photography skills suck. That is normal for her. She's a spaz! She'll just be swimming around and decide she's going to do some laps.

And here's one showing the wall:

Ok, just cleaned the tank and thought it was time for an update. FTS Right side Middle Left side Sump

Maybe you can work out a deal with QR. They have a customer that's looking for a 120g tank only. DDiver has a like new 120g tank and stand FS cheap.

Talk to Marcos (monkiboy). He can give you all the information you need.

Hey Gary......good to have you back!! I've got the D2040s over my tank that is 27" tall and I can grow SPS on the sandbed. They do not have true dimming capability, but the blues and whites are on different switches and the intensity on each channel can be controlled. For sunrise/sunset I just do the blues on light 1, then 2, then 3 about 10 minutes apart and then the whites on light 1, then 2 then 3 about 10 minutes apart. For sunset I just reverse it. You'll pay an additional $100+ to get more granular control. Let me know if you ever get up the Woodbridge way and want to take a look at them.

If there is an area where the tissue didn't RTN, just leave it alone. Are you sure it's RTN and not bleached? I have had bleached stuff come back.

Yep, go get the tubs and get them warmed up. Let us know what else you need.

Ok, nobody is calling anybody out in this thread. My question was about the questions that perspective buyers were able to ask in a thread where, let's say, everything doesn't add up. If we are going to start throwing members names around or making accusations, do it in your own thread. Not my intention here.

Thanks for weighing in Tom and Dave. I can imagine moderating a forum is about as easy as herding cats.

I don't want this to turn into a "man I hate when sellers/buyers do that" thread. I'm just trying to determine what questions can be asked where and what can't. I know that if I were getting ready to buy some livestock and the seller doesn't mention anything that is wrong with it, I would want someone to say, "hey - I thought those fish were sick" or "you didn't say anything about your flatworm problem". I guess I'm just looking for a little seller accountability. Tom - I believe it was a sales thread, but I can't be sure. I just know that the member had very publicly stated how sick their fish were (not just the fish for sale, but the whole tank) and a month later they were miraculously cures and she wouldn't give any details on what was wrong and what was done to cure them.

I have seen a few posts in the last year where legitimate questions were asked of the seller, and the asker gets a warning from a moderator. Here are a couple examples: -A user had posted that her fish were sick and she couldn't figure out what was wrong with them. 3 weeks later she posted them for sale and was asked if they were healed and what had been done to heal them. The member never answered the question, but instead went running to the mods to complain. All of the members that asked about the health of the fish were contacted by the mods and told not to post anymore questions or we'd be in trouble (I was one of them). Now, with all of the diseases being passed around by members because they don't fully disclose their tank inhabitants maladies, why were questions about the health of the fish considered to be inappropriate? Any potential buyer has a right to know the health and history of their purchase don't they? -Recently we had another member offered up a coral for sale. He then raised the price of the coral, and when asked about it he said it was someone elses. Then he said it was a gift. Then he said that he didn't want a cap that big in his tank, but at the same time took a large cap from someone else for free. People in the threat were inquiring about all of the inconsistencies with what was said in the thread, yet the post that closed the thread said that some of those questions were inappropriate. So I guess my question is, why were those questions inappropriate? Not trying to start something here, but it's a legitimate question.

I know that he had gotten Lyme's disease and was really sick.......just wanted to make sure he was ok.

Haven't heard from him in a while and saw he hasn't been on the boards since September. Anyone know where he disappeared to?

My favorite solution would be to get a bigger tank!!

Redundancy. I have one in my display, one in the skimmer section of my sump and one in my return section of the sump. They are all set to 79 degrees and my ACIII is set to cut them on at 79 and cut them off at 80. I know that folks complain about having one in the display, but if your return pump quits on you and you're not around.......well, at least your inhabitants won't freeze.

No more MH......and that stash is getting much smaller. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

I try and try to get decent shots of my tank and it's inhabitants with my cell phone camera, but they always come out jacked up. Either too blue, too dark, or the pic just doesn't look like what I'm looking at. Is there a secret to this?

Are those Yellow Coris Wrasses? Beautiful!!

Coralvue makes tubular LEDs.........not a 1:1 replacement, but close enough. Ice Cap used to make them but then they went away.

Good luck with the project. Be sure to post pictures as you go through with this.
