The New club in the Sarasota/Port Charlotte area will be having it's third meeting in two weeks. If you're a local aquarist and are interested in joining our casual group please send me an email/pm for details. Agu

A friend of mine set up his AGA 125 in the garage to leak test it, passed with flying colors. So he moved it into the house and moved livestock from two or three tanks into the 125. A couple of days later as he's looking at the tank the front pane splits and water starts dribbling...

Coming back from the Latest Tampa club meeting (150 miles round trip) I decided it's time to form a more local club for SW Florida Marine Aquarists, Southern Sarasota to Port Charlotte. I don't know if there's enough interest to form a strictly reef club, but I think there are also a lot of fish...

I have to really question the value and validity of an artificial sea salt analysis at this point. The original reason as stated by Matt here, http://reefs.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t ... c&start=20 posted on March 14 asserts the study is to check Dr Shimeks test results. Have samples of said...

Hate is a pretty strong word, btw have you ever owned a "Le Car"?Or had an STD? Which do you prefer ? "PWNT" a new four letter acronym, care to explain ? All I can think of is "Pain With New Tights". I understand, my wife thinks pantyhose are a drag too :P . Agu

Uhhh Nissan is a Japanese company. You could boycott Renault, a Nissan subsidiary, but what;s the point ? Most people would rather get an STD than a Renault, it's cheaper and easier to cure. Agu

Hey everybody, Kalkbreath is OK with these regulations, it's not an issue as long as he's going to be fine. After all, he lives close to a busy airport, do you? Lets all go back to burying our heads in the sand. Or maybe we could spend 5 minutes to fill out Mary's form. Which makes more...

Hmmm, maybe the link I posted is invisible, http://www.ncpa.org/iss/reg/2002/pd122002d.html And just in case you couldn't find Marys website to read those links, http://www.reefsource.com/CurrentCampaign.htm If we're wrong, and we were proactive we'll never know. But if we assume it's not...

Mary, Thanks for the input !! I highly encourage everyone to check Marys site and respond regarding this legislation !! Agu

Kalkbreath, Don't know about international flights by foreign carriers, but as as I understand it US carriers need to report on every animal. Does your LFS get direct shipments from overseas, if not the animals are subject to these rules. This would also include any livestock you mail order...

I just learned about this legislation today in the local paper. Pending FAA rules would require air carriers to inspect all shipments of live animals and file reports on any dead animals. In a shipment of fish (and corals if they realize they're live animals) each individual bag would have to...

Here's a link to "Sunpipes" http://www.sunpipe.com/ Here's Solatubes website, http://www.solatube.com/ And here's solarbright http://www.solarbright.com/Prices.htm Now that I've moved to sunny Florida I want to try these out with VHO supplementation. But the contractor informed me...

Uhhh Cheese Sandwich, I'm going to file a complaint at RC, your goat is much cuter at reefs.org , ours is kinda ugly . Agu

Since when did reefing become a competitive sport? In my opinion we all have the same goal, that is to take care of our chosen animals to the best of our ability. Where we get our information is irrelevent as long as it's good information!! That means reading and evaluating the input we get no...
