  1. WWW.SEAHORSE.ORG mods quiting?

    http://www.seahorse.org/cgi-bin/UBB/ult ... 1&t=000019 There were 4 replies to the request for input, FOUR. All the replies were from the people who were about to dump the site just days later. What's up with that? What's going on SS? We are left to conjecturing. Let's face it, you guys...
  2. WWW.SEAHORSE.ORG mods quiting?

    I can't get a straight answer out of either site. Everyone is being a politician. Regardless of what went on to cause the split, I've lost any respect I had for the folks at the new site, especially Chris Burns. According to Seahorse.org the moderators copied all the files from Seahorse.org...
  3. need advice on troublesome algea ,help!

    DarkA, It sounds to me like Cyanobacteria. I did a quick search on this board and there are tons of threads that discuss it. I have seen it before in others tanks but have not had to deal with it <to such an extreme extent> first hand. You might want to post a reply that gives some detailed...

  6. Swim Bladder Problems in Clowns

    After months of tank preparation, I finally bought my very-first-ever salt water fish on Wednesday - two clown fish. One of them isn't doing so well. He can't swim for very long. He swims when I feed and he eats like a hound, but then he goes right back to lying on the bottom. I spoke with...

  9. Weekly Debate

    I think that as long as the tempature is within a range that is considered acceptable, and the tempature is consistent, you would be less likely to see problems. When tempatures in a tank spike or drop, I think the corals suffer as a result of the change and not necessarily what the resulting...
  10. Lower electric bill reef

    I've been reading "Aquarium Corals Selection, Husbandry, and Natural History" by Eric H. Borneman and, not all corals he discusses in that book require high lighting. There's alot you can do in a medium intensity (lighting) REEF tank. BTW I have one heck of a Xenia forest thriving under PC's...
  11. HELP!! Overrun by Aiptasia

    I've had great success with my "genuine" peppermint shrimp. Although it's reasonable to assume that not all peppermint shrimp will take to eating the aptasia, I think some of the failure rate may be associated with hobbiests who obtain a like species called the camel shrimp. This article...
  12. Will I infect my friend - am I contagious?

    I had an outbreak of aptasia in my tank when I got my rock. I got a Peppermint Shrimp and he's got it down to one. It's been under control for the last month +. A friend is starting up a tank and has asked me for a sample of my sand. Is it possible to transmit the aptasia to the other tank...
