“Old Tank Syndrome” Pt 2; Enter the Dragon
As I was saying, I got a dragon gobi to work on my substrate. It seems that after about 15 years of use, the sand-bed had become too full of debris that was decaying at a rate fast enough to feed the Cyanobacteria, but not enough to pollute the water. I say this because all parameters were good, filter bags/socks relatively clean, and all looked well.
The fist thing the Dragon Gobi after acclimation was to start eating Cyano by…

“Old Tank Syndrome”; Experienced; and Resolved?
Old Tank Syndrome Pt. 1
This blog is obviously about old tank syndrome, but more importantly, it is about a fish.
A while back I posted a query about “old tank syndrome”. Something I had heard of, but never really understood why it occurred, or when. I have heard that 20 years is about the “life span of a reef tank”. I never really have heard an explanation…

On-line Store Ethics and WYSIWYG "Enhanced" Photos
After a recent blog post on another site, and a comment by a good friend of mine, I started thinking about the ethics, or lack there of, involved in selling corals on-line as "wysiwyg" but at the same time using editing software or blue lights to enhance the look of the coral. Take for example the coral above, it is very obvious that this photo was either taken under very blue light (safe to assume LED lights) or edited using a program like Photoshop. This coral is…

Switch to Ecoxotic LEDs
Although I love new technology and how it changes our lives, sometimes I hesitate to just jump right in with the newest tech. In our hobby one of the biggest changes has been the move to LED lighting. When I first started this addiction of a hobby the only options we had were metal halides (Mh) and VHO lights. After several years of running Mh lights I made the switch to T-5 lighting. T-5 lighting worked great on the tank I had, a 120g mixed reef, and I was able to keep…
