Lye is becoming hard to find since it's an ingredient meth labs use. It's becoming a real hassle for home soapmakers who need it for their hobby.

Back in January, I had a post edited to remove a link to Dr. Ron's blog -- not because it violated the EULA (I checked, it didn't), but because it interfered with the community's "healing" after all...

Deep linking into other, competing reef boards is a no-no -- especially when linking to posts by RC's former experts.

However, do have a poke around Marine Depot's forums.

Pic of my hybrids

Hi folks,

Here's a pic of my maroon / ocellaris hybrids. It's tough to judge the scale, but the dominant one, at just over a year old, is bigger than my dominant ocellaris that I've had for two...

But Edited Doc Ron's blog is not a competitor ;)

It does, however, hinder the healing, so no links - Anemone

Hi guys,

I think I found my tang's yummy spot: some red / purple macro that grows in my overflow. I just dropped some in, and he went NUTS for it. He is definitely eating it. At the very least,...

Food for a tang in QT

I have a 2 inch yellow tang in QT. I've tried him out with a few different foods (nori, Cyclopeeze, marine flakes), but the only thing it's really going for is chaeoto from my 'fuge. I...

Hi Eric,

One more quick question.

How do you acclimate a "dry" coral? Drip your tank's water onto the paper towel?

Thanks for the wonderful article!

Bone-eating snot-flower

Hi Doc,

Try shortening the hose so that the pump is a couple inches under the water. You might simply be making the pump work too hard going against the head pressure for it to make foam.

Yup. Everything on the circuit that is before the GFI is fine. It's just the GFI and everything that's wired after that's out.

I'm thinking the GFI itself is toast because even it's light is out.
