    Clam Quarantine Question

    After approximately 14 years in this hobby I will be getting my first clams in about two weeks. Maximas and squamosa from a somewhat unknown source so I need to take all precautions before they enter my main display. Obviously they can't carry ich, but what should I look for? I have never had...

    ACIII Network Configuration

    I just finished configuring my wireless router and wireless game port and now I have no clue how to configure my ACIII so I can see it on my computer. The ACIII instructions leave a LOT to be desired for us non-computer geek individuals. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Which MH bulb to buy? .... these work for me

    Just my opinion, but I wouldn't buy cheap bulbs. I bought some $30.00 That Fish Place brand bulbs when I lived in Pa and was completely dissastisfied with the cheap bulbs (usually get what you pay for). The color was not good, they never seemed to fire up properly, just generally a bad...

    MH bulb question, please help!

    10K would definately be a good choice. It is normal to loose intensity with the higher Kelvin bulbs. The 10K bulb is more of a white bulb. They don't really get yellow until around 6500K. Your PC's should give you all the blue you need and you will probably notice better coral growth under the...

I am almost out of the cheap salt I brought down from Pa when I moved here in July. I found the following...

    Acrylic Set Up Time

    I just slopped together a baffle for my refugium. I had a refugium built a few years ago and only had two baffles put in it, so the water exits the second baffle on the bottom. I threw together some acrylic with upstream and downstream supports plus a ledge off the bottom so the sand will hold...

    Pool Filter Sand

    I went to Home Depot today to purchase some Pulverized Limestone and I came across some Pavestone brand Pool Filter Sand. It looks identical to southdown sand. It is consistent sugar grain size and inside the bag is wet. I would assume this means it is pre-rinsed. Yes, I will rinse it some...
