just another update

I haven't been posting much in a while, so I'll update on what's been going on. On November 1, 2008, I attended NCPARS' Fall Frag Swap. It was my first swap, so I had no intention of buying anything live, as I have problems with the stock in my existing setups as it is.

I couldn't figure out what membrane replacement would work with the old unit, because it was a Sand Point (and they don't exist anymore, from what I can tell), and I think that something in the water I was gett… Continue

Xenia update

The pulsing Xenias not only aren't pulsing, they are all but gone to the great coral reef in the sky, at this point. Only a few visible polyps are left on two of the clumps, the other places are just smudges on their respective rocks. Never determined the cause, but I suspect that whatever environmental component that did in my Palythoas was to blame. Easy for me to say. After running the aquarium with 100% LED lighting for about a month, I reintroduced one T5 strip. The only other thing to re… Continue
