  1. Lots in the NSR. Just keep trying, you will hit one. I got sick of pike and walleye also, now I am after the Lake trout!!!
  2. I have a 72 and a 110 on my main floor, house is 35 years old. I stick with the rule to have your tank against the wall that runs perpendicular to the floor joists. that way the tanks weight runs along as many floor supports as possible. if it is running parallel with the floor joists, then all of the weight is on those specific ones and not being spead out. but thats me.
  3. USELESS WITHOUT PICTURES!! Sorry didnt mean to yell post pics,post pics
  4. This is from a friend of a friend, but very important none the less
  5. The Scottish Government has ALMOST decided to establish our country’s first Marine Reserve, a No Take Zone that will provide a safe breeding ground for fish and other marine species in Lamlash Bay, just off the Isle of Arran. A Public Consultation is underway; the climax of a 14year long campaign spearheaded by Community Of Arran Seabed Trust – COAST. http://arrancoast.co.uk/news/april08.html Three local divers discovered a maerl bed in the bay – home to a myriad of sea creatures - and have dedicated heroic amounts of time trying to save this marine jewel for future generations. http://www.arrancoast.co.uk Like coral reefs and old-growth forest, maerl beds take thousands of years to grow and are irreplaceable cradles of bio-diversity. Most everyone agrees that a living ocean is vitally important but parliament will only act if it hears a loud, clear voice of approval from lots of people. Individuals and organisations from all over the world are invited to participate in the consultation. Numbers count. Our community is just a few thousand souls. A big show of support will make the idea of a Marine Sanctuary a reality. This window of opportunity is open only until June 5th 2008. Please act now, help Save Our Seabed! Email your comments to lamlashbayconsultation@scotland.gsi.gov.uk It’s free and takes very little time. A short, simple message is fine, for example “Yes to the Lamlash Bay Marine Reserve. Please make it bigger to ensure the protection of sea life.” Include your name / group name and full address. Postal Address, instant email link to the consultation and more info here: http://www.arrancoast.co.uk/news/april08.html Do you have an extra minute to forward this email to your friends and associates? Imagine ripple effect! Thank you so much for your consideration. Best Wishes, Deirdre J.

  6. Will do. Oh and everything else in the tank is doing great!! The kids are upset that "Poon" is gone Yes Poon was the name of the Yellow tang, more for the fact of having the girls say, thats our yellow tang, Poon.
  7. I am sorry toirtis but I was told to keep that to myself, I didnt buy it. What was left was given to me. There were a TON of flat worms tho, and I mean a ton!!
  8. So over the last week I have been siphoning out little red bugs. Flat worms are what I found them to be, and on sunday I did a dose of Flat worm exit. Man that stuff works as good as an H-bomb, As they were dieing I siphoned out the dead bodies and the cobweb looking things that they left behind. I watched carefully and after about 3 hours I noticed non of my coral were opening up so I proceeded to do a 30% water change and again watch. Monday I took the afternoon of to do a little more maint as I wanted the rest of these darn things out. When I went to bed last night everything was going fine. All fish were eating, the crabs and shrimp were doing their thing, corals and such looked good, but this morning I woke up to my Yellow tang dead. Do you think it was from the flat worms? I am at work now so there is no way I can get home to do a water change or even checkon them. I need some Ideas, anything that you think would help fix things or understand what I did wrong, or need to still do.
  9. Oh my, Oh I feel so bad for you. My family sends their condolences
