My jawfish of 2 years did the same thing. Sad to hear.

Thanks for the help!

Does anyone know of a good place to get a leather riding jacket for my wife? I am going to the city this Sat. to look, but I have no idea where to go. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

I would just love to get out of NY. The taxes, weather, why else stay? The south or out west keeps looking better every winter!

The orange polyps with the greenish blue center are some type of zoa. I don't have the name for them.

Suggestions?

Jim, Its a 92 corner. There is no back to it so it get plenty of air. I could put a fan to blow the heat out or take the chiller out all together to reduce heat. I guess I could put the chiller on the side of the tank. I would just need longer hoses, which will cause need for stonger pumps...

Thanks for the compliments on the tank! Russ, I dont know if the pump has enough "oomph" at all. It doesn't have good pressure pushing the water up to the return. I have the chiller on its own pump. I have like four pumps in my sump, phosban+carbon on small maxi-jet together, skimmer, chiller...

Does anyone have an opion on running chiller and the return with the same pump? Too much flow? not enough?

I guess this is why I had trouble keeping the tank cool even with the chiller over the summer :) I pretty much did it to just look cleaner than having the chiller on the outside. What kind of pump should...

I do run carbon, you could see it in the pic of the sump. I have a lot and I mean a lot of shrooms in the tank that I need to thin out. I think that may be a problem also.

Thanks Russ! I have to give you Props for helping me out on several occasions. With helpful insights as well as coming over to check things out.

I know the leather is gigantic. I need to learn how to frag it or give it to someone who knows how to do it!

Someone from this site is supposed to trade me another coral for it. It got HUGE this past year!
