Rapid LED is definitely legit, I wouldn't hesitate to use one of their kits

So, I got this brain a little over a year ago, and recently its started bleaching out. I've been pretty busy with work lately so my tank has definitely been a little on the neglected side. It's about a third of the way up my tank that is lit by AI LED's This is what it looked like when I got...

I have been running the AI Sol's over my 180 for about two years now. I'm currently debating an upgrade to the Hydra 52's once AI finally gets around to releasing an upgrade path for previous customers

Going to need more info here, nitrates, phosphates, water temp etc

Need water tests to help but 99.9%,of algae problems are nutrient export issues. There are more nitrates and phosphates entering the system than leaving it

Submerged or external? If submerged, look at mag drives or ehiems

The conscientious marine aquarist by Robert Fenner

Looking good so far, I love leopard wrasses

Just make sure that valve is on the OUTPUT side of the pump, not the intake

While an amazing fish, it's definitely better off in the ocean

Make yourself up some saltwater and take a hard piece of hose and try to siphon as much of that out of the tank as possible. I had dino's REALLY badly when I started from using well water. I siphoned them out every single day for like 3 weeks while also doing extra water changes and they...

I had one that went carpet surfing - it was a great fish. I also agree that it shouldn't be kept in anything less than a 6' tank

Running LEDs like that should be fine, my schedule is similar. Mine start sunrise at 9 am, and over the next 4 hours ramp up to 100 percent, at 4 pm, I start a sunset that ramps down to the moon cycle at 10 pm

With that kind of algae, and readings of 0 nitrates are false negatives. He's testing positive for phosphates and algae needs both phosphate and nitrate to grow. There is a threshold for both phosphate and nitrate where algae cannot grow. Because of the nitrate process, it is easier to treat...

Lobsters are opportunistic predators, they can and will eat fish, shrimp, snails, and all that jazz. It doesn't matter if you feed them, they are still willing and able to go after other inhabitants of your tank. On top of that, they are very shy, and tend to live in the sand / and or caves in...

You'll likely never see it, and it will potentially go after fish, not a good choice for our tanks

Not really sure what you are asking here. You will want to wait until you have gone through the various algae stages of starting up a tank, and you'll want very stable water and flow conditions in the tank. Having some success with lps or easier SPS is also probably a good idea. The one year...

No, if you keep the live rock wet you should not have to re-cycle the tank. Starting with new substrate is a really good idea, it prevents the biggest potential source of problems

What pest are you trying to control? Keep in mind that as the Melanurus ages, it will start to go after snails, and small shrimp as well. I have had two that needed to be re-homed after they aged a little

False. Megalodon is a SHARK, not a dinosaur Erin wins... Again
