News

I have added the Photo Gallery to the site. I’m not using the best camera in the world, but there are a few nice shots in there. The Photo Gallery and Reef Log pages are still being tweaked, so minor adjustments may be seen. I’ll also be making small adjustments to the overall appearance of the site as this project winds down.


New additions. I’ve added 3 new coral frags.


Purple Monti Digita


Dragon Eye Zoos


Blue zoos

Progress

Well, the Reef Log page is about 90% complete. I have some tweaking to do, but I’ll leave that for a later date. I’m moving on to the gallery which I’m really looking forward to adding, but it will also be the most tedious part of this project. I have tons of coding, image choosing and editing before I can mark the Photo Gallery as completed.

Red bugs - aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!

While taking a look at one of my favorite corals (Starry Night Acro) in my 10g frag tank I noticed a bunch of tiny red dots toward the base of the coral. My first thought was "No, this can't be what I think it is", but I soon came to grips with reality and began to research treatment methods. After doing a brief 30 minute search on RC, I now realize that this treatment has the potential to be a huge pain. It's not the treatment itself that is going to be the problem, but more so the lack of needed equipment. Here are a couple of link showing the treatment method that I'm going to try.

Treatment Method #1
Treatment Method #2

I'm definitely going to try the quick method first since these are small colonies and I lack the necessary equipment to run QT. I'll try to post my treatment process. It will not me fancy like melevs's method so don't get your hopes up.

First Blog

After months of thinking about completing this site, I've finally decided to get it done or should I say "GIT-R-DONE!”. I've recently sold my show tank so I don't have much livestock or equipment to list. I'm currently running a 10g nano which is home to several sps, lps, soft corals and pods. The 10g tank is serving as a show/frag tank at the moment, but I'm working on setting up another tank that can function as my reef tank. I'll definitely post updates on the new tank as it comes together.
