I can make the drive. April or later is better for me because basketball practices and games will be over. I am in a rut and have lost interest in my tank for the first time in 8 years. Hopefully...

Everything is looking good.
Sorry to hear this. You might want to buy some Dr Tim's or another bacteria population to try to get the beneficial bacteria built back up. I had SPS issues last year and I know it can ruin the...
Glad to hear that Jack. I could host a meeting if people want to come down to Baltimore. It would need to be mid April for me to host. Maybe we could do a group trip to the National Aquarium before...
It's looking good. That pocci is the devil. It spreads everywhere. I am constantly chipping it off the rocks. I guess it is awesome if you like it.
My SPS test frags that seem to indicate my tank is no longer where acros go to die.

I haven't posted a tank update in quite a while. I have not had SPS issues in more than 4 months, so hopefully the issue has been resolved. I am still not sure what caused the problem. I believe...
It looks like it was meant to be there.
It's coming along nicely. I'm still jealous that so many of you can do the wiring and stuff that I have to pay people to do.
Welcome to the club! There are several members pretty close to your location. We try to have quarterly get togethers, but often skip the Summer months because of people's schedules. We also try to...
I would be willing to make the drive. I will be coaching basketball on Saturday mornings beginning December 8, but I can make it any other time.
Looks great!
I am hoping things have turned around, but I have thought that a few times over the last year. I bought a pearlberry, pc rainbow and sunset milli about a month ago and the frags are holding their...
I have an led and t5 combo on my tank, but I will share what I use. I have had tank issues and lost most of my acros but they were doing great under this combination prior to the issues. I used ATI...
Welcome back! I think you could have fit that tank in your old tank.
The tank is looking good. I also tried to cut back on water changes recently with poor results.
I guess he doesn't like chalices. My harlequin tusk picks up mouthfuls of sand and them drops it wherever he pleases. At least the tusk doesn't just pick on one coral.
The colors and growth look great.
I agree anything other than a possum wrasse might need more room. Otherwise it looks like a good list. Do you have any pictures of the set up?
I wish I could find a smoking gun. There is just nothing jumping out at me except dying montis and acros.
Yeah, I have thought of sending a sample of fresh mixed saltwater. I might try that if I find nothing else. I also realized that what I thought was rust on my Eheim pump was just brown salt mix...
I submitted a second ATI ICP test since I have still been having SPS issues. I realized that my first test was done in October and was about a month before my tank issues started. There were only a...
I spent three straight weekends with various traps and nets trying to catch the fish with no luck. Yesterday I watched him viciously attack my copperband and I was on a mission after that. I chased...
The tank has really grown in. My pocci has spread everywhere in my tank. I now have a no pocci policy.
That's some awesome growth.
