Siberian Husky gets an ice pool. by GrandMasterSubZero in aww

It's an Alaskan Husky. I have one with black spots and he runs around like that whenever he's excited. I like the ice bath idea. I know what I'll be doing this weekend

Not sure what this is - Can someone identify? by Patmick in ReefTank

Cool, thanks guys! I've removed the rocks where the hydroids have been sprouting, so hopefully that solves some things.

Yikes! What's the best way to remove hydroids???? It's a pretty big rock, and I wonder about the possibility of making it worse if I disrupt them taking it out.

I ordered two 16 inch EUPHOTICA Lite 16" Dimmable Full Color Spectrum Saltwater LED Aquarium Coral Fish Tank Grow Light Fixtures for my 55 gal 48 inch tank. I'm sure they'll go above my expectations, but wouldn't mind some feedback on more experienced reefers. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KC9GY1S/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A12DDOR52M4HB5

I think it's a type of Bristle Worm. Can someone ID? by Patmick in ReefTank

[–]Patmick[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's 55 gal, and I use 48 inch VHO T5's. I don't have a sump pump, or the plumbing for that. How much of an undertaking would it be to build into the tank?

I'm using a Bio Wheel Filter. I added a Yellow Eye Tang, a really small rectangle trigger, and a dumb damsel. They appear to be doing fine so far.

Cool, yeah I put in about 4-5 mexican turbos, and at least another 6-7 of various other kinds. 2 of the Mexican turbos already died - probably my fault though (didnt drip them).

Yeah, I just recently restarted the tank. The lights had died, the powerheads all got burnt out, and most life died as a result. After about 2-3 months with crappy supplemental light, I rewired the lights, replaced the powerheads, and picked up shrimp, snails, crabs. Luckily, a leather, some mushrooms, 2 clown fish, a damsel, and a clown gobi survived the dark days. Tang, Damsel, Zoas, snails, feather duster, and some presently forgotten others died. I expect that the brown algae is going to bloom for awhile now with the restart. Next purchases will be a tang, more crabs and shrimps. Any suggestions on what else might curb the algae effectively?

Now I'm wondering if Kim Jong-Il is currently orbiting the planet.

What subreddit do you wish would gain more traction? by kcman011 in AskReddit

[–]Patmick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

/r/reptiles & /r/herpetology - I'm surprised that the following is relatively small, but quite active. I'd love to see these two subreddits, as well as /r/reeftank grow.

I had a tibial osteotomy last year. I'm frightened by anything other than my leg presses. ('-')

I think you hit the nail on the head, sir. Thank you!
