    That sounds like a great way to get carbon monoxide poisoning. Enjoy your garage nap.

    I run our reef on tap here in Reno too! I had it all tested when we moved. It was funny, the water I had been buying from the "pure water" store was actually worse than our tap! I tell you, you never know what you are buying.

    Well.... just read all 18 pages of this thread, sorry I have not been keeping up Pack!

    Great to meet you the other night, I mean really, "Hi, my name is Jason, here is a beautiful pulsating xenia and starry blenny for your tank." haha

    Speaking of those little gifts, I owe you a beer or six and the blenny is very happy. The xenia seems happy as well; I have placed it at the top of my tank where there is a lot of light and the lowest flow possible. You rock! :)

    If you need a hand with that stand let us know, our labor rate is affordable. :p

    No worries dude. I am the one that should buy you the brew. Taking the blenny was doing me a favor. And the xenia is like crabgrass ;)

    Nah when the xenia starts growing crazy just frag off 98% of it and chuck it into the trash can. Then you still have the 2% left to start over with :D

    If I lived across the country...I'd help. But oh darn I guess I don't have to do manually labor after all. so sad. ;)

    Really? Well, I'm not sure it will ever be that prolific in my tank. I seem to be able to sustain things, but nothing really grows too fast. :(

    Trying to figure out my camera so I can get a pic of the Belnny (his new name is Leonard :p). He really is pretty, about 4 inches long with vibrant yellow dorsal and pectoral fins. He has staked out his three favorite hiding spots and in the evening he comes out to play a bit. ;D
