Trials and Tribulations of a Reef Aquarium: Aquarium Recovery
http://reefaquariumtrials.blogspot.com/2011/09/aquarium-recovery.html
Trials and Tribulations of a Reef Aquarium. Wednesday, September 21, 2011. Shown here is the aquarium at the old place. Strangely enough, it looks almost identical today. It's recovering very well since the move. It's been about 1 month so far. The elegance coral, which we were most worried about, has grown, yet again. The thing is taking over! All-in-all, everything is good in aquarium land! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). San Diego, CA, United States. View my complete profile. Sweating and Loving It.

Trials and Tribulations of a Reef Aquarium: August 2011
http://reefaquariumtrials.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Trials and Tribulations of a Reef Aquarium. Tuesday, August 23, 2011. Moving an Aquarium- No Small Feat. Recently, I moved to a new apartment. At first, I was devastated, thinking I would have to sell my aquarium, just over 1 year old. It was doing so awesome. Tearing it down would break my heart. Luckily, my fish guy, Mike, agreed to move it for a small fee. It was a lot of work but totally worth it! Mike takes apart the plumbing and the sump in the cabinet under the aquarium. The tank is running (note ...

http://reefaquariumtrials.blogspot.com/2011/10/aquarium-update-and-new-fish-6-line.html
Trials and Tribulations of a Reef Aquarium. Tuesday, October 18, 2011. Aquarium Update and New Fish (6-Line Wrasse). Meet Julius, the newest addition to the aquarium! He's a 6-line wrasse and very active and quite gorgeous. He loves to hide in the rocks and sleep in the sand but he's always out and about, swimming and darting this way and that. He's a meat eater and, although it's been rumored that his species can be aggressive (mostly to other wrasses), he gets along wonderfully with the gang! Mr Roper ...

http://reefaquariumtrials.blogspot.com/2011/07/1-year-anniversary.html
Trials and Tribulations of a Reef Aquarium. Tuesday, July 12, 2011. We have a lot of catching up to do on the home aquarium start. The tank is officially a year old! It's definitely been a success but not without its share of ups and down. On the whole, the aquarium centers around an equilibrium that cannot be greatly disturbed for sustainability. Today, I'll go into the nitty gritty. Stay tuned for an exciting ride! First, let's get the stats over with:. 5 dkH (used to be 7-8, although 8 was a fight).

On an impromptu trip to the east coast to visit family, we had the chance to see the George Aquarium in Atlanta, one of the world's largest aquariums.

Trials and Tribulations of a Reef Aquarium: Help! Power Failure!
http://reefaquariumtrials.blogspot.com/2011/05/help-power-failure.html
Trials and Tribulations of a Reef Aquarium. Monday, May 2, 2011. After consulting with the local aquarium stores, I was informed that most fish and inverts will be okay as long as the power outage is 24 hours or less. The main problems are: sudden drop in temperature, depletion of oxygen from the water, and build-up of nitrates from waste (not to mention changes in pH as a result from oxygen depletion, the lights being out, nitrate build-up, etc.). Finally, this experience has made me consider looking in...
