I have a very gently used Coleman Powermate 3,250-Watt Gasoline Powered Portable Generator. It's been run two occasions for a total of about 8 hours. Generator was properly drained of fuel after each use. I used to have a large 150 gallon aquarium, after downsizing I no longer need the power...

I have a good sized tub of live rock (base / dried out) left over from a tank consolidation project I did a couple of months ago.  Free to the first member to PM me.  Only caveat is you must haul off the entire tub.  Pickup in the Flower Mound area (a few miles from Grapevine Mills Mall).

I’m having to do flooring work in my home, and to simplify things for myself I am consolidating my tanks from 3 down to 1.  As a result I have an assortment of livestock and equipment for sale.  First the livestock, I have to move it before I can sell the tanks. Livestock: 4 RBTAs mounted to a...

I picked up this little clown and need assistance with an ID please. He was sold as a "Black Ice" however he lacks the scalloped black borders seen on the average snowflake. I thought he might possibly be a fancy white, but seems to have a lot of black. Hopefully someone who knows more about...

I picked up a Splendid Pseudochromis at a LFS this weekend. She/he was listed as an "Aurora Goby" for $60. It was obviously not a goby, but was a beautiful fish, so I took a chance and offered $30 for "the mystery fish". I figured if I could not keep it someone would certainly have a suitable...

I got what I think is a great shot of my PBT today, so I thought I would share it with everyone here. He's not my most expensive fish, but he is my favorite! Tim

I have a horrible bubble algae problem in my 150, and after trying everything else have decided to add a foxface to see if that might help. I have had the foxface in quarantine for six weeks now, and I am nervous about adding him to my display. I have both a powder blue and yellow tang already...

I have been loosing Chromis in my quarantine tank for the past several weeks. I have had a total of ten and am now down to three. I suspect some sort of disease, but can not really identify what might be going on. At this point, I have decided to remove them and am going to be starting a...

You win some you loose some… I was feeling cocky after getting my PBT all the way through quarantine into my 150 gallon setup. Next on my stocking list were green chromis. I picked up six on Saturday, and have now lost 2/6 of them. Both to the same disease/symptoms, they pretty much...

I have a small orange barred shrimp goby, and am interested in obtaining a pistol shrimp to pair up with him. Other than a clicking noise, are there any drawbacks to keeping a pistol shrimp in your tank? Has anyone seen one for sale at any of the LFS? Tim

This fellow is roughly 2.5” and is currently alone in my established 30 gallon quarantine. After 6 weeks he/she will be headed to my 150 gallon reef. So far the fish eats flake and is happily picking at a nori sheet placed in the tank. No signs of ich (yet) but if it does develop I have...

Tomorrow afternoon my new 150 gallon Oceanic gets delivered. I am upgrading from a 75 gallon setup which I have been running for three years. I have been planning this system for months, making choices, second guessing them, and researching every detail I could think of. In my 75 I have...
