Ooo I found an ati 24” 6bulb dimmable for $300 with 8 brand new bulbs. Only problem is it’s 2 hours 30 min away in Cape Coral.
might not be a problem though because my best friend flys there a few times a week. I might be able to kill 2 birds w one stone. Get a couple flight hours and a light

Does anyone know how to get rid of bubble algae? My emerald crabs messed with enough to make it spread, but haven’t touched it since. It’s really getting out of control:(
Lots of people have posted about success using Vibrant.

You always have to add a little more to compensate for the melted ice. :)

Two of the babies died. One was still in the net when I put them in the container to acclimate them...I swore I saw all three. The other started swimming funny when I put them in the tank..moved him to the sump and he was dead 30 minutes later.

I probably won’t be around much. My heart is broken. It hurts when I lose one, but knowing I left one in the net.. I wish I had left them!at the store. At the moment, I‘m ready to give up the tank. Maybe I’ll feel differently in a few days..

stay safe everyone

Soooo, major buzz killer, I've been on the phone with my former employees off and on for the past few hours and it has been brought to my attention that they weren't taken very good care of after I left. Most were left to fend for themselves. I'm feeling very heartbroken for them. Not only were they my employees, they were my friends/family, i feel responsible for where they are now...they say they're ok, but you can hear in their voice they aren't where they want to be. Its heart breaking.

Yeah I really have no words for it either...I hand picked these guys for what they knew and what they could do...wish I could move them all up here where I am currently, because I could put them to work immediately and make it worth it for them.

Sorry to hear. Unfortunately, loss is part of this hobby. There isn't a reefer out there that hasn't been where you are now. Personally, I have never had good luck with those fish and have avoided them since I lost a mated pair that seemed fine one day and gone the next. I never did know what happened to them. The tank was full of healthy fish and corals, yet they perished without any apparent cause. Don't give up because of this setback. You are obviously passionate about the hobby and there will be many good days ahead.
