i got gracilaria and ulva from ipsf.com in the '9 for $99' special and I still have it 3 1/2 mos later! It was in my main tank but my tangs sort of ate most of it so I put it in its own fuge to 'recoup.' It seems to be growing slowly but nicely under a coralife 50/50 bulb. my tangs get nori and...

does the company have an address you can write to? maybe they tried to deliver it but the address wasnt written down properly? I wouldnt shut up either till I got my $67 back!! good luck.

any updates on the tank??

ooo, i know! its a BEAUTIFUL coral! I know, Im not any help at all :)

I have run into this situation and I have done both things: once I turned the skimmer on once or twice a day to circulate it, and the other time I just dumped the water down the drain, to be on the safe side. Just my take on it....

i personally have dragged my coworkers home to see my tank, and i love showing it off to my sister's company when they come over (I live with her), so I wouldnt care if someone wanted to see my tank if they just knocked on my door! (as long as they werent holding a machete!) :D

thanks :)

nacl-h20, thanks. not what i wanted to hear, but thanks! do you think that it would be safe to put all the shrimps and crabs from this 10g into my healthy 30g, being as that they were in my ich-infested 20g tank a week ago? my pods wont come in the mail till thursday, by then would it be safe...

yeah ive wondered that myself. i would guess that its annoying to the animals, just like excess noise without the ability to escape to a 'happy quiet place' would stress us out.

I have a 10g tank with cleaner shrimp, peppermint shrimp, two blue leg hermits, an emerald crab, and three astrea snails. I am getting a shipment of amphipods (grammarus shrimp) from indo pac sea farms and want to know if they will be able to live and multiply in the tank without predation from...

now I thought I was obsessed with fish. good to know there are less normal people than me out there. now ive seen it all!! :D

I know lots of other people have said this, but your tank is beautiful!

dumbest mistake (among many): before I had saltwater tanks, i had freshwater, and I thought it would be neat to have brackish puffers. what did i use for salt? regular freshwater aquarium salt! never occured to me (I never knew at the time) that I had to use something like IO or whatever. those...
