    Yeah as much as I would love radions, I think my kids would rather I get them food. :rolleyes: LEDs have come so far now that companies are getting better at making good products. I would be more comfortable mod'ing an Onyx than an expensive Radion, too. I didn't get a dimmer yet. I want to...

    Took advantage of Thanksgiving/Black Friday deals -- after deciding I don't want to shell out $1200 for 3 Radions or even 3 AI's, I was going to just diy my LEDs. But then after seeing the Onyx from RapidLED and reading reviews and watching youtube videos, I decided to just go with that. After...

    You can put whatever you like in my barrels anytime ;) I have to reorganize my sump room. It's looking like a fish store in there with tanks and pipes and old equipment LOL Then I'll have room for it. Spent the last 3 days trying to find an o-ring for my tfc membrane canister. It's got a...

    I contacted Petco via their site about her. They replied thanks, and that they have a program called "caught in the act" or something where they praise their employee and they become elligible to be employee of the month. They said they will forward it to her manager. I hope so. She was...

    Yeah, all the Petco's are different. It really depends on who they hire to run the fish department. This was the first time I found a knowledgeable marine hobbyist in a Petco. I think Erin worked at a Petco, so at least we know THAT Petco had a good employee :D Hopefully the other Petco's...

    ok. Been a while.......holy crap, 2 years since I last posted! LOL Bear with me while I get this out of my system... I lost steam for a long time and was just maintaining the tank. I had every intention of breaking this down and downgrading, keeping just the clownfish. I gave all the fish...

    Nitrates off the chart

    +1 mario.....looks like you got your nitrates down. Slow is best. If you do too much too fast, you will stress your fish and corals.

    January POTM - Anything Goes!

    Here's a thought...can we have just a "Dennis' photo of the month" contest? That way, he's always a weiner...I mean, winner! :D Is that the li'l munchkin in your avatar D? Starting her young! I bet she's already got her own tank that you're training her to take pictures of so it would pretty...

    HELP! My occellaris isn't doing well

    If it keeps happening, it could also be the kole. I had one...got rid of him because he was a butt munch. Bullied my goby to the death. Once he was gone, everyone was copacetic.

    Really Bummed. Lost my FoxFace

    I lost my beloved foxface after 4 years, too :( I was devestated. Sorry to hear about yours. They're awesome fish! I think mine got an infection...one day, I noticed he had lock jaw. Next day he was a goner. That's probably why I got a bit disheartened with my tank lately.

    My poor fishies

    +1 all of the points, plus, how's the anemone doing? Did you acclimate it properly? A dying nem will release toxins and kill tank inhabitants, too.

    Tank has suffered from a major electrical shock!!!

    Wow, sorry to hear, Ariel! Hope everyone comes out ok, but seems like James has you covered. At least it was in the sump, so hopefully that helped lessen the amount of current that flowed back into the tank, even if just a little bit.

    Starting over

    LOL yeah, have to thinking about what I want...if I want it custom built or just pick out a prebuilt one. Definitely has to be predrilled. I found someone to take my tank. It's my friend's brother. I already warned him of the initial costs for the equipment, and he's ready to take it on...
