Is there a compatibility chart WRT different types of anemones or should they be kept by region or something like that?

any plans???
small jelly fish like thingy

Posted: June 21st, 2011, 8:33pm CDT by Keeganp

Hey guys,

As some of you may know I have a Jewul tank and it still has the standard filter that is comes with,

Ok so anyway the top of it has a lid and some water stands there, but has a little flow,
So I was looking at it today and I saw two small jelly fish kinda things, well the swim like jelly fish,
They look like an upside down feather duster,
They move with small busts, like they will stand still for a while then move for a few seconds and stop.
I hope this make sense.
And noo I cant post pic's they are a little bigger that the size of a needle head...
Courier

Posted: June 21st, 2011, 5:40pm CDT by Hermanus

Anyone know a good courier that is willing to send live stock?

I want to send coral frags to cape town from Harrismith. Just done one with a courier and the time is perfect not even 24hours. But they didn't handle it with care so everything got there broken to pieces.:( Sounds like all the couriers have an issue to send live stock.

So after trying to get my new tank from @Adee into my house and where 8 of us couldn't manage to get it past the first step, arrangements were made to get Nemo and his team to assist... and this is how my 2metre tank got to its new home...

So mega kudo's to @Nemos Janitor for providing the help, @ADVdiver for arriving and participating with the help, @Adee for the tank....
Wanted: Co2 Regulator.

Hey guys...

I'm looking for a Co2 reg to borrow for about 3 months. If anyone can help, that would be wicked. If you really want to sell rather, and the price is right, I will buy.

Starting up again after 4 years

Posted: June 21st, 2011, 9:42am CDT by DNA

Hi guys, it seems that when the reef aquarium bug bites, it don't let go. I had a 1.8m reef, for several years, but due to some personal issues, and job relocating had to give it up. Always said i will do it again, now here goes.
At present, im collecting gear, busy with the tank, sump. Have loads of aragonite, and good "dead now" LR.
Will post pix of previous setup when i can find them...:blush:
I was using NSW before, but think im going for the mix this time... less PT and vehicles rusting away!
