Sorry folks, I just realized that photobucket has suspended my account for the rest of this month (5 days left).
I checked my account info and found out that I have had about 25,000 hits in this last week and that, in just one week, I have apparently exceeded my "photobucket bandwidth allocation for the entire month of May. Frankly, until a few minutes ago, I had no idea that bandwidth would be a problem. I have written the hosting service (photobucket) to see whether the account can be activated immediately. I am waiting for an answer. As I suspect that I will run into this same problem in the future, I am considering alternative/supplementary hosting services. Suggestions greatly appreciated.... |

you could always donate to them, maybe then they give you more leeway. check with them...
Otherwise, your ISP might give you some webspace you can use. Of course you can always post them in your personal space here at reefcentral. That's what I do.

Well at 25k hits you tell them to run ads on your pix and put them back up. Darn, I want to see those. Maybe they could cut you in on the ad fees.

You can right click the Photobucket banner, go to properties and copying the URL information into a new browser window and the pictures will come up.

Unless you plan to get a website or pay for more bandwidth, I would resize your photos. You could cut them in half and make them 72 dpi and you would save lots of bandwidth.

THANK-YOU LHHF !!
for the hint as to how to access the pictures while I deal with the issue of "Bandwidth allocation - (2 e'mails to photobucket so far and no-one has gotten back to me yet). I have, also noticed that, if you follow LHHF's directions: ie. "You can right click the Photobucket banner, go to properties and copying the URL information" but paste it into the SAME window that contains the ReefCentral post that you are looking at, then, - hit return (to bring up the picture); and then, - hit your "back button" the picture then appears together with the relevant text in the original post. |

.....
...... First of all, I should like to confirm that I was able to communicate with "photobucket" late yesterday evening and that my bandwidth has now apparently been reinstated. ...... ...... and now to your questions.... Quote:
Briefly put, I think that it is an excellent food. The fish respond to it well and it doesn't appear to pollute the water in the way that most foods do. Quote:
I also put provide the fish with: - 2 stalks of romaine lettuce every second day; - pieces of that brown seaweed (I believe it is called Nori and is used in the preparation of Sushi)which I buy very inexpensively at a Chinese grocer). Finally, when a new fish is introduced, I will add a frozen brine shrimp (Hakiri) to the flake. Lighting schedule - a total of 8 hours in Stages: - 1st hour 1,400 watts, - 2nd hour an additional 1,400 watts (2,800 total); - 3rd to 6th hours - another 1,400 watts (4,200 total); - 7th hour 2,800 watts; - 8th hour 1,400 watts. I don't follow any precise schedule of water changes. I would estimate that I change a maximum of 5% (or 50 gallons a month. I know this goes against the grain of expert opinion....but that is the simple truth. Now, what I do do is make sure that all of the top up water is RO and reasonably pure. Again, I am certainly not suggesting that anyone follow my lead and curtail or reduce their water change schedule. You have to remember: - that my reef aquarium is a 1,000 gallon system (800 in the main aquarium and 200 gallons in the sump); - that I have 2,000 lbs of live rock; and - 500 lbs of coral sand. What I suspect is that the rock and sand serve to buffer the system by leaching certain necessary substances into this enclosed environment Quote:
I will post pictures that illustrate just how much access I have. Quote:
Quote:
In terms of access. I actually have 2 side doors (one on each side of the aquarium). There is also lots more access via "windows" an 8' hatch (at the front) and an elevated walkway (at the back). The pictures that I intend to take and post will illustrate what I mean when I refer to "design" and "planning". No, the tank isn't against the back wall. There is actually about 18" of clearance. I installed a hinged elevated walkway in this rear space (at the level of the top of the stand). This allows me excellent access as when I am on the walkway, the tank appears to me to be at floor level and 18" is more than enough when you are essentially referring to "leg room" Again the pictures will help explain this feature. Quote:
I did not feel comfortable with these two technical tasks and felt it would make more sense to entrust them to skilled professionals. However, I did most of the rest of the work and all of the ongoing care and maintenance. Quote:

and yeah, I'll take and post a picture of the "bar" set-up Thanks again for all of your positive comments about my tank, basement and, of course, "the bar" . |
