i think she may be right. my tank is 6 yrs old too. when i moved it i had to replace my sand. i could not get a hold on the cyno until i did that. i had absolutly no problem with algae before that. now i stir up the sand when i do a water change. sounds like maybe that food has given your...

he is so cute. sure that guy is reef safe?

yes please do. i would be interested to see how your project comes along. sounds like it will be a real learning experience. always a good thing

i just watched a documentery about that area. very interesting

happy days, happy days- no more visible ick. my tangs are back to behaving like they normally do and my corals are looking better and better. everything loves the gyre pumps. i have never had corals open up this much before. i have purchased an american aquarium led light- the aquabeam 2000hd...

i guess you have to look at the space you have to put it in and how big a tank will work in that space. sounds like you have the same problem i have. bigger is better. i have seen some really nice corner tank setups. just not in salt water. i dont see any reason you cant have a good setup with a...

why dont you get a custom tank? then you can get exactly what you want. cost a little more but you will be happier in the long run.

six yrs i had him. piss me off. my yellow and my regal are looking better all the time though. i think the sterilizer is finally getting the parasites down to a level that the fish can cope with. i'm going to keep the sterilizer on, wait a month and start working some new fish into the herd

ya, i thought about it but decided to try one more kick at the can. It just that i'm in such an isolated are that it costs me substantually more for livestock. i lost my foxface yesterday but my regal tang and my yellow, my 2 shrimp goby-pistol shrimp pairs and my possum wrasse seam to be doing...

So my tangs are still hanging in there. The sterilizer has been on for a wk now, and yes i know it wont iradicate the ick in my tank. I am just trying to give the tangs a fighting chance. The regal and the yellow are starting to look a lot better, the foxface is really looking mangy. I...

thanks a bunch you guys. i started putting in new corals but it will be a while for the fish. i have to wait for the ick problem to die down.

you can also place them in a small container of coral rubble and they usually attach themselves to a piece, then you can put it where you want.

so after a lot of effort and BULLSHIT my house is sold and i have moved. a month later my 265 gal tank is emptyed and everything is is in pails bags etc. boys are supposed to show up to move the tank. NO SHOW. they got in the truck to come over and ran into a friend. come on out to the camp...

well if you had found it out in your yard i would say it was a slug. it is probably not harmful BUT you never know. i think if it was me i would take it out if i can't identify it.

i have a couple big pieces of rock that i have placed on the bottom of my rock structure. they are unusually flat on the bottom. i drilled holes and inserted frag plugs so my pistol shrimp could tunnel under and not tip them over.

put the vinegar in a spray bottle. spray down the inside of the tank. let it sit for a bit, but you want to keep it damp with vinegar. probably spray it 2 maybe 3 times then use a razor knife, the kind for taking paint off of windows. it will strip right off like nothing. thats how i cleaned off...

tangs or triggers do not stay small. if you feed them they grow. if you dont they die. its very difficult to have schools of fish in a salt tank. you are thinking something like a school of freshwater tetras. you dont get that unless you have a tank in the of thousands of gallons. marine fish...

i would get live sand, but you could use dry sand too. if you use dry then rinse it very well before you add it. use a small container and slowly and carefully sink the container under the water and slowly pour it out where you want it. leave your rocks on the bottom so they stay stable...

doen't look very healthy. if you really think it on the way out get out it and put it in you qt tank. see if it recovers. those things give off huge amounts of toxins when they start to rot. not good

wish i could say that. i bought a green spoted female that was eating pellets in the store. put her in my tank which had a huge pod colony. i have never seen her eat fish food since
