  1. purple or powder blue tang?

    I also agree with the purple! I've got one in my 90 reef and he/she is very active and even schools with my angel! Their best buddies! It was a toss up between a purple and a hippo and the guy at the LFS said purple all the way! I really wanted a hippo, but I'm SOO happy that I went with the...
  2. Was this bad??

    That's what we though...but we searched the tank and couldn't find hid-nor-hair of him/her. Unless he/she is hinding out in the rock work really well! Possibility? Probably! Angel got hungry? Maybe. Guess I'll find out after a few days and if it comes out of the rock work! Thanks for...

  4. Was this bad??

    Wow...thanks for the attitude. I've been doing reefs now for almost 10 years on and off, so you don't have to tell me about planning it and doing my research. :roll: I even went to school for marine biology and got my degree in it. I know that angels are prone to nip at corals...I was asking...

  7. Problem with IceCap

    We've checked the fuse and it's OK too. It's driving me crazy!! The canopy has been on my living room floor for 2 weeks now and I just want it to work. :cry: :cry: The wireing looks just like it does in the diagram. We don't know what to do, and IceCap is closed for the night.
  8. Was this bad??

    Well, I've been watching this Cortez Angel at PetCo for the past 3 weeks and I just had to have her. So I went out last night and got her. She's doing absolutly wonderful in my 90gal with the 2 tomato clowns. The tank they had her in at PetCo was about a 30-40gal long and she was with a huge...
  9. Problem with IceCap

    We just got back our 660 from IceCap after sending it in for repair, and my husband tried to hook it up again to our 4 bulbs but it still wont light anything. What are we doinmg wrong????? It's driving us crazy and we want this to work already. He has set it up by using the 4 bulb diagram but...
  10. bacteria death

    Trust me...the bacteria won't die!! :lol: I work in a microbiology lab and I've cultured some of the bacteria from my skimmer, put them on blood plates, manitol salt, etc incubated them, and THEN let them sit at room temp and they STILL thrive!! It takes a lot to kill the bacteria in almost...

    Is no one in favor of little blue legged hermits anymore????? I was never a fan of the red legs, but I've had good experiance with the blues. Why are you not in favor of the blues?

  13. Aluminum for reflector

    We went out yesterday and bought a big piece of Alum to make a reflector for our VHOs for our custom hood. This is going to be OK right?? I've seen some saying galvinized steel for MH, but this is just VHOs. Thanks!!
  14. Which do you think??

    What is a yellow banded butterfly? I've been looking for one on line to see what it looks like. Is there another name for it? Thanks!
  15. Which do you think??

    Ok...we're thinking about what kind of fish for our 90gal reef and this is what we like: Regal Angel Sohal Tang Hippo Tang We would prob go with another kind of tang/angel but my husband wants a fish with beautiful colors. I told him that sometimes it doesn't work out that way. :roll...
