Master Reefer (8/13)

  1. Rik, i will take the A360 tuna blue if still available.
  2. The coupon they had at the time was $4.50 off.
  3. On amazon, IO bucket is $28 shipped free with prime
  4. I used to use bsi. Harbor freight superglue gel works just as well if not better.
  5. They are still too young to sell. I will know for sure in about 2 months. I will keep this thread updated.
  6. Thanks Ha! Shape and deformities are the first thing I look for. I also make sure the fins are intact and big. A lot of the designer clowns have either torn fins or undersized and deformed. Check this one out. It looks great so far.
  7. Here are videos of what I started with as the grandparents of these fish. and
  8. Just want to share my excitement. I've been on and off breeding clownfish for the last 11 years or so. I have a special pair that I've been waiting forever to breed. As I read up on clownfish breeding and seeing most fish breeders/vendors sell fish with deformities, I focused on breeding fish with minimal inbreeding. I started with my Doni's reef snowcasso and a Rod's/Cquest onyx pair. I then acquired a few black picassos from Bali Aquarich. I paired one of them with an ORA picasso that I got from BRK. When those bred, I then paired it with my Doni x Cquest baby. It took about 5 years for them to breed. Anyway, these picassos are now 14 days old have are looking very promising.
  9. Good job! I see a few helmets in there
  10. You can also try one of those circular polarizer filters for phones. I'm not sure how good they work on phones but the ones I used to have on DSLR worked great.
  11. BSI IC-gel has been good for me. I now use coraladdiction super glue I found on ebay. It's similar to BSI and the container/tip does not clog up.
  12. Depends on which clownfish you have. Haddoni anemones are not natural hosts for true percula. I had a tank full of true perculas that I bred and the haddoni I had was ignored. Ocellaris sometimes accept haddoni as a host and I've seen it a few times.
  13. Phosban reactor? No but I think you may have to stop dosing 2 part (at least the Alk portion). Test daily and take a look at your alk consumption. As far as water changes, you can still do them regularly but test the new water. Some salt mixes have high alk/cal levels.
  14. Based on your description, you are most likely at low or ultra low nutrients. Alk may be too high for a low nutrient system.
  15. I for one am not throwing him under the bus. I contacted him on Apr 11, 2018 to get a sump built. Said he was going to order materials. When my deadline came, he said he needed more materials. Told me 3 weeks to completion. After 3 weeks, said white pvc is not available. So I said just go ahead and make it in gray since that is what he had available. May 10, 2018, he said assembly on sump has started. On May 22, he said frosted acrylic was shipped by mistake instead of clear. He told me new acrylic will be delivered on May 29 and he won't be back in his shop until the following week. I waited another week and he said it's still not complete. Asked him how much longer, he said another 2 weeks. Contacted him again on June 27 and he disappeared. Have all the text messages so there is no other story other than he failed to deliver. If there's more to his story, then he should address it.
