Wow, the thread that would not die... But it's a great topic, glad to see it still going!
It always amazes me how large a meal some corals can eat. My frogspawn can easily eat a silverside bigger than my pinky finger, and the coral is only...
only other thing that comes to my mind with that description is a tunicate (sea squirts) colony.
you can move large specimens in 5gal buckets and coolers as well... I moved a huge Red belly Pacu and it's Pleco buddy in a 35gal coleman cooler once.
Ah, I see you meant Sand... yes sand is better. I really regret putting crushed coral in my first tank. I have been thinking about ways to get it...
Skimmer needs 1500KVA 480v 3 phase power and a 52" loading dock to do parties outside my place. Lemme know we can probably arrange an hourly rate.
Either way should be fine. If you can get under the floor and add a brace or 2 under the tank that would probably make you feel more secure, but if...

There's an iPhone app to interface with the APEX controller. You can also access from any standard web browser. and I don't think the price...
After like 4 weeks of waiting on it my non-custom, very much stock, should have been shipped the week I ordered it, 180g reef ready tank is here!...
Don't mess with play sand... if not for the silica content because it's just ugly, and usually very dusty. Many local landscape bulk material...
When I ordered my SWC Xtreme 200 Super Mega skimmer it took like 2 weeks to get here, and when I called FedEx to find out where it was I could hear...
re: Permits for live animals. Most states regulate the sale of live animals on a commercial basis. Many (rightly) consider corals to be live...
heh that confused me for a while.... Green Spotted Puffers.... Around here "GSP" stands for Green Star Polyps, a type of coral. ... I got it...
I've heard Condy's are more agro than BTAs. There are videos on YouTube of people feeding live fish to their nems, and most are condys. In nature...
