Pet Forum / Aquaria / Marine Reef / January 2004

I got some frags of mushrooms and some were loose flosting in the bag, what
is the best way to attach these to live rock with minial stress to them, for
the ones that were not attached to the rock I can't seem to find a crevice
or anything to wedge them in? Here are the frags I got.

I know, I've asked this before, but I've forgotten, and my archive search
didn't turn up what I needed.
Why should one not use a canister filter (for ex. an Eheim 2320) on a
marine/reef tank?

Allo,
I've had my salt water setup (±280 ltr incl. sump) running almost 2 weeks
now and have just added some live rock from the LFS.
I'd like to rather get my own sand stone and live rock from local beaches

I built my first overflow. (Marc's design) It has a 1" Tube for the line to
the sump and a 525 GPM pump for the return. The overflow line is very noisy
and sometimes the  will flush like a toilet and that is really loud. The
pipe from the overflow is submersed in the sump water. I ...

Just get some feedback from the group. I'm currently running 250w 10K Ushio
(plus actinics) on my SPS tank. And this bulb seems to allow SPS to lose
some color.
I've read up on the XM 250w 10K bulbs and the CoralVue 250w 10K

Governor Howard Dean is married to a Jewish woman and their children are being

I got this cute little crab.  If you've never seen them before, they are usually
white with rust-colored spots on the shell and arms.  They hang out near
anemones, even getting in the tentacles, and extend fan-like appendages that
catch planktonic particles that the crab eats.  ...

I finally ordered a decent skimmer!
I got the Aqua C Urchin Pro w/ Mag Drive and drain fiting.
I ordered it today along with a couple of salifert test kits from
MarineDepot.com.  Thanks to King Marc and a few others for all your

I have a new 120 g tank that I bought used from a local guy.  It was a FO
system with minimal light and no chiller and a bunch of dead coral skeleton
stuff.  My LFS says he'll trade for livestock, coral, lights, etc to upgrade
my lighting and help me get a chiller.  That's good I'm ...

I'm looking to start a SW aquarium, and I'm only looking at a single
fish, a small living rock and a cleaning crew.  
I'm wanting to start small and if I can maintain it for some time
progress to a larger reef.

    I resarted a reef ( 3 month old ) 90 Gal reef. Right now I have 1
Flame, 1 Yellow, 1 cup coral, 2 leathers, 3 shrimps, 1 feather duster
and star polyps, everything is happy. I put B-Ionic every morning. I
have a Bac-Pak Skimmer ( I moved it from my old 30 gal. I know it is

Hi Boomer,
We were just talking about Target Mandarins recently.  Look at the *orange*
