Patty and I again want to thank Joel, Archie, and Tien for allowing us into their homes to see their beautiful aquariums. We also want to thank you, Gerwin, for arranging it. We got to see how meny of the things we have been looking at (to add to our tank) actually work! We also saw several new ways...

I just came from a local plexiglass supplier. I was told by him that a couple other people who had bought his plexiglass to make sumps complained that within 3 weeks the saltwater had melted (his words) the surface turning it white. I have never heard ot this. Has anyone else? I would think that it ...

He appeared to be recovering as his mantel has been extending further. He had also attached to the rock where he had been placed. Ye...

At the store today I was trying unsuccessfully to describe a recent new discovery. They are almost transparent (like a jellyfish), rounded at the front with two pointed tail like shapes in the back. They are about 1/16" to 1/8" long (expand and shrink) and have no skeleton. The rounded fro...

I just started in this hobby last March so to say "newbie" is an overstatement of my knowledge. I have started a 75 gallon reef tank and currently have just a couple of fish and corals. One of the first things I read on the web was to pick one person who is extreemly knowledgeable and foll...
