    I've got a tiny jellyfish

    Having no filter helps, not sure how happy with life they'll be if they make it to the sump and pump though.

    I've got a tiny jellyfish

    After looking all morning to no avail, I have at least 2. Just found 1 even smaller than the 1st. My last rock addition was about a month ago so they have survived this long without ever being seen or being eaten by fish. Curious how many I'll end up with.

    I've got a tiny jellyfish

    I was looking in my tank today and saw this little guy flash by, 1st time for this kind of hitchhiker. He's maybe 1/3 a pinky nail big. Video was tough as the current throws him all over. And yes I know i need to clean my glass. :)

    How are you keeping your aquariums cool?

    Back when I used some hot lights for my corals I fought temp swings be keeping the tanks heat up around the clock. Being warmer than normal all the time is better than going up and down 15 degrees every day. Now I've got low temp lights and just run a room ac, stays 75.

    And it begins again

    So after a hiatus of a few years here I am starting new. I had a bad move destroy my multiyear project and off a couple thousand in livestock and I didnt have the heart to restart. I gave away the remaining stock, sold everything and moved on. When I quit, LEDs as moonlights were relatively...

    Gfci outlet tripped

    Fluorescent liggts tend to not play well with gfci. I wouldnt hsve too much issue moving lights to a nongfci circuit, but moving the entire wet circuit over is a bad idea.

    Boiling Rocks

    I had good luck killing them with boiling water and a turkey baster. Leave the rock submerged and spot treat vs killing the whole rock.

    Hydrometer not working

    Ok,take a deeeeeeeep breathe and say "there is no hurry". Nothing good happens quickly in saltwater. If you are adding salt now youre at least a month from your first fish. Your tool while basic is fairly foolproof. Odds are, as long as the arm swings freely it will work. Its easy enough to...

    Sand Waterfall Decor

    Forgot about those things, had one years ago. Looked very cool but was very frustrating. The sand you use is really low density and either water current or the fish always emptied it out so you constantly refill it. I think it was more the fish at the time as it always looked like it was...

    Bonding Acrylic to Glass?

    Going out on a limb here, but why not just buy some silicone at your local hardware store? Last time I bought pet store type silicone I paid way more for a little tube than if I had gone to the hardware store. Personally I think there's a little old lady somewhere making a killing using a...
