Very impressive!!! Very nice work. With regard to: I'm not an engineer but I suggest leaving the corner as is. I wouldn't worry about the space or "blocked: light. Keep in mind that the canopy is hinged and there will be some tension on the structure when it is opened and closed. I think you corner design is neat and will help maintain the integrity. Finally, in the WAMAS tradition, you can never have TOO much structural integrity

Fragging? I though Flowerseller was moonlighting as a Sushi chef.....

Frankly, I wish I had you level of maturity when I was 14! Welcome to WAMAS. I'm sure things will improve with you tank. Stick with it. Steve

any thoughts?

We have pipe organ about the size of a baseball. To keep it in place it is wedged between two rocks. I was thinking about glueing the base of the pipe organ to a rock to keep it attached and allow it to self propogate on the sides. ANy thoughts on any cons of gluing the base of the red tubes to rocK? I'm also thinking about fragging this in half. Does anyone have any experience? If so, any tips on how to do this? Thanks. Steve

I had a few a few years ago and am down to 1. I consider them beneficial. I noticed that their suction to glass is MUCH stronger than snails. I may have harmed/killed one a year ago (by accident) while tring to remove ir due to a tank move.

They pretty much taste the same. Just use a spoon for dry and a straw for wet.....

To the gang at Aquarium One, Thanks for hosting the social. I live in Virginia so it was nice to have a chance to see you place and pick up a bargain. Doug (aka dbartco), Thanks for organizing this and Justin's tank tour. Steve

Justin. Thanks for the tour. I look forward to hearing more about your green house project... Steve

That's my understanding...the bags need contact with air for the exchange. That is not possible when they are floating...

I don't get it......

Are these are problem or are you just tired of so many?

from http://www.saltcorner.com/sections/zoo/1024frameset.htm (Gobies) : "Trimma This genus consists of 39 identified species, with many still waiting to be identified. All are quite small, i.e., less than two inches (5 cm) in length. One male usually dominates a group, with all others being females. If the male dies, one of the females will become a male. Should a larger, stronger male become the leader of the group, the less dominant male will return to being a female. And do so quickly, sometimes in as little as four days! All species are peaceful and in the wild feed upon zooplankton and benthic invertebrates. In the aquarium, they will accept meaty foods such as brine shrimp and mysis shrimp. They are perfect inhabitants for small nano reef systems.

http://www.wamas.org/forums/index.php?s=&a...st&p=189742 I'd welcome hearing from anyone that has experience with Orangestriped Cardinalfish. Steve

Dear Gang, See below for what I have now. I wonder if it would be OK to add some Bartlett's Anthias Orangestriped Cardinalfish? I'm interesting in adding a school of 3 or 5 but were concerned about Anthias feeding habits and gender-change issues. I'm now thinking about Orange Cardinalfish. What do you think?

I think that is a valid point. I toss most the liquid and dilute the gunk in 4 gal of rodi waste water.

Perhaps we can provide freebie samples at the next meeting..... Sorry, just 1 bag per customer

Nice job!

Just wanted to share that, except during winter, I try to use RO/DI waste water on the lawn. During weekly skimmer cleaning, I also throw most of the brown (salty) skimmer water down the drain but rinse the skimate gunk/sludge in a bucket of RO/DI waste and use it to fertilize the lawn. I'm thinkin' about a lawn tour.... you should have seen my lawn two years ago!!!
