Which Silicone?

Posted: February 3rd, 2012, 1:11pm CST by llewellyn

Hi Guys, I've seen many tanks with black silicone and not sure which brand is best for this application so I payed a visit to builders looking for the Den Braven brand. They did have this brand but none in black. Do any of you know which type it is and which is the best for bonding glass together? Please point me in the right direction.
Thanks

Hi guys. I know this a Sea Cucumber but have no idea what type. It is about 10cm in length. When I first saw it he was about 2cm which was about 7 months ago. How big do they grow and are they good to keep?

Black Tang ID Please

Posted: February 24th, 2011, 4:33pm CST by llewellyn

Hi guys. My friend and I were at the beach last weekend and caught 2 of these black tangs. They are quite common and have seen quite a few in the rock pools. I couldn't really get a good pic cos he darts away everytime I try to take a pic. It is full black with a neon blue stripe at the end of the dorsal and anal fins. I will post a pic when i manage to take one.;)

A must see!!!

Greetings to everyone at MASA!
My name is Llewellyn. I have owned a fresh water tank for the past 5 years and have recently decided to start up a marine tank.
So far I have purchased a 4 foot tank for my setup and still have a long way to go.
Although I have done some research...I am needing alot of help from the experts.
