Great Pictures Mermaiden! I have some good pictures of Herons around here somewhere, but no idea where. They make a great subject.

cut / break stuff, put them in ziplocks, bring them to the meeting :) For softies, if you have time to get them to stick to something thats always appreciated I am sure. I like to use scallop shells I find on the beach or little pieces of live rock rubble. For zoa's I've always superglued them to th...

Pensacola has 3 dog parks and it looks like they will be getting another, and Gulf Breeze is getting one also. Alabama has 1, and it is in Birmingham. Pensacola has has an active dog owners association goin...

I guess I wasn't clear, I mean have regular meetings, etc where you accomplish stuff, setup frag swap dates with local clubs, arrange for field trips to aquariums, manufacturers, etc.. that kind of stuff, and then have an occasional party, which is what we're doing now, but schedule the parties in a...

1st off Summer is always a bit slow for reef stuff with a lot of us, lots to do outside, etc, it has always been more of a winter hobby for me. Also confused on what would be done with "club funds" I can see the importance of maintaining a balance in something such as an RC club where ther...

I think the dog actually turned out ok, a little more scared up , but I've read the dog is doing just fine.

that some people should have to have licenses to be aloud to breed themselves not just to own a dog. AMEN TO THAT! :) On what Salt-n-Lime said... remember the bull vs porcipine pictures that floated around a while back? How many other breeds could / would do that? I know my poor dog would stick him...

What are you interested in raising in your new tank? Mostly corals, softies, etc, or what? Depending on what you're interested in I'd probably stay away from the Florida live rock unless you like battling mantis, etc... It's also denser than a lot of the pacific stuff. Maybe it's my cheapness, but I...

Increase the ph, and lower the nutrient level in the water. Better skimmer or more water changes, or activated carbon will help lower the nutrients in the water. The algae can't grow so fast if it doesn't have an available food source. I say increase PH, because higher ph helps precipatate phosphate...

I don't "blame" the breed, but they are inherently more agressive than many other breeds, especially with other dogs. Not all of them of course, but being more agressive was an asset with dog fighting and bull baiting. And when they are young they are really really sweet. You just didn't t...

Sorry if I sound like a butthead in my original post, I just feel pretty strongly that many people shouldn't own pit's, people who won't work with them and provide the foundation for them to be a good dog citizen. And like you said, about bad breeders... There are different kinds of pits the Showdog...

We will probably just have to agree to disagree on this one, but I think for the most part I agree with not necessarily a breed 'ban' on pit bulls, but I don't agree with just letting any thug wannabe or bubba own them. Pit bulls account for nearly twice as many fatalities as any other breed, yet th...

would be interested in Reefflo dart or Ampmaster 3000 let me know when you get that far, I know you might need a circulation pump while you still have corals, etc. :)
