Re Use Dead 'Live Rocks & Livesand'?
Comments (4)The live rock and live sand you have now is dead. It should be safe to use. Live rock/sand is just rock and sand that are good hosts to beneficial bacteria, algae and animals that provide the ideal nutrients and texture. Usually the sand is aragonite and the rocks aragonite/or somthing with a high calcium carbonate content that has a porous texture. Too make the "dead" rock "live" again you add quality pieces of new live rock to the tank. The live rock will "seed" the dead rock as long as water parameters and good circulation are present. The site below has a better more detailed explanation of these things as well as tons of articles for beginers to experts.I would advise you to be patient and follow advise of "fishless" cycle with live rock. Don't add fish until the live rock has cycled the tank. Here is a link that might be useful: reef central...See MoreDead Bees in Townhouse!!

Comments (9)"I'm from the philippines and i have also observed dead bees in my two hives. I see them scattered on the ground below the hive opening. What could be the cause of this?" One would need much more information to determine the reason. Is there a mite or nosema problem? Robbing, pesticides,starvation,etc, etc? We could make all kinds of random guesses, but it would be best if you did some research, and a thorough inspection of your hives. Are there other local beekeepers more farmiliar with your situation that might be able to help you out?...See MoreProblem with bees inside my apartment
Comments (2)I'm having the same problem, almost exactly. I have checked everything as well, and can't find how they are getting in my house. I have two small children and this is huge concern to me. I can't post a pic of the bees, but they resemble a big honey bee or a small hornet to me. I'm not a bee expert so I could be way off, but thats what they look like to me. It's only happened in the past few days as the weather has gotten cooler, and usually only see 1-2 once a day mostly in my kitchen where there are no windows/doors. I have evEn checked my fireplace and had it cleaned, so what could the problem be? Any advice will be greatly appreciated. THANKS!!...See MoreSally_G
