Hi fish people,

Are we having the usual holiday party for the next meeting in Dec.? Just checked the SFAS website but it hasn't been updated since last month.

Hey guys,
I have free abundant and healthy Java Moss sitting outside my home for free to good aquariums that don't mind a stowaway or two... (baby rams horn snails). One collection of moss is actually a carpet pulled off a large log in my aquarium.

First come first serve, you'll find this sitting inside a red retired Examiner newstand box, right in front of Covet jewelry store on the corner of Arguello and Clement. I'll post once the collection has been fully taken. The java carpet is in the pitcher, and the rest is sitting in a tupper ware. Feel free to pick and choose.

Fragging corals in-tank?

e...@knudstrup.org (Eric Knudstrup) — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 02:45:30 UT

I was wondering if there's any technique to fragging corals in tank? I
have a couple beauties that are going to be interfering in the not too
distant future but can't take the rock out.

DIYLED lights for plant tanks

Choose some 5000-6700K ranges and you should be fine.

I've seen some, I'm not yet impressed, lots of hoopla, not much as far as aesthetics, look ugly still. Some DIY folks have done okay/well.
But as far as watt per unit PAR for planted tanks, I've actually got a light PAR meter, and both a LiCOR and Apogee, so I know what/have actually tested and measured this stuff much more than I care to expand on........the T5 lights from Tek are really good.

Due to the high cost of electricity and the number of tanks I'm keeping,
I had to really limit the use of high powered lights on my plant tanks
awhile back. Low light plants like Java fern, moss, and Anubias are ok
with me for now, but I miss having the variety and color available with
more light demanding plants.

Any landscape places that sell rock usually have a large assortment of
rock, and are excellent sources for decorative rock as well.

Garden supply stores. Do you want it for the Ca or to raise pH? Gypsum will supply the calcium w/o raising pH. When I was young in Illinois, the gravel that was produced locally and used for making concrete and on roads and driveways was mostly limestone.

If you are looking for loose aggregate, you may want to try Broadmoor

Depending on what you want it for, you might use oyster
shells. Easy to find and free.
I'll even eat the oysters for you if you need help....

If you are looking for loose aggregate, you may want to try Broadmoor
lumber. They have great rocks there too that can be bought by the
pound (and ton).
