Firefish are great, I would love to have one but I know that they can be jumpers and putting a lid on a bow front isnt a easy task and not one I want to embark on. I think most cardinals are relatively peaceful, but they need a tank at least 30 gal if memory serves. The engineering goby needs a...

It may just be feeling hotter then you are used to. Honestly the best thing you could do is take your temp over a few hours and see what your tank tells you. Still not a really accurate way to judge your needs for the summer, but it would give you an idea of what it could be capable of :) How...

What are you using? An algae clip? Over time (and not a long period of time either) the algae just sort of disintigrates away from the clip, also depending on the size of your CUC, they will crawl up there to much. But just because you dont see him eating it doesnt mean he is not. Put some more...

If I were to go with a bigger tank I would do Starphire as well. Acrylic scratches easily. To coarse of sand can scratch it....lots of things. While it does buff out, the eventuality of buffing it out is that it will wear thin (at least in my opinion) Starphire, while expensive doesnt have the...

I had a more detailed response in your other thread but honestly with your tank in front of the window like that....your options, imo, are limited. I would consider the chiller. It got pretty hot here this summer, and even with my lights on legs and the A/C running my temp swing was still 10-12...

Honestly I would turn it on and see what the temperature does throughout the day. I know in the summer with my light my temp can go up over 10 degrees.....about a degree an hour. Its winter so it wouldn't be as drastic but still something to give you a bit of an idea. The glass top IMHO is...

Great shot

Smitty quick question, that looks like the Bentley emblem on the black car, is it? And is that yours??

Site meltdown?

I would really buy the chiller. my MH lights get insane in the summer, which heat up my water like you wouldnt believe. Right now it isnt a problem because its winter, but I will have to get one to keep my tank stable. Plus in the winter, people just get rid of them for pretty cheap

A great many reefers have ordered from online and had great success with it. I know Aquarium Fish: Tropical Freshwater Fish and Saltwater Fish for Home Aquariums is a safe one to go through, others will chime in with where they get their stuff from and who not to go through. I have ordered...

Highly recommended.

I went 75 through a school zone, passed the bus while it was unloading children, stole a bottle of your favorite liquor and went to the store and bought a bomb coral with the money I saved from stealing the liquor. Youll need all your handcuffs.

Ok well here is my thought process, the coral beauty is only in one tank. Something is still eating at them in both tanks........Whatever is eating one is eating the others. You should look at them closely and see if there is anything on them

I put my chaeto in my main tank. I dont have the room for a fuge and a HOB isnt really an option for me either. Putting it in my main tank eliminated my phosphate problems, as for the nitrate issues, honestly water changes once a week and a good skimmer were all I needed to make that go away.

Do you coral dip? The only reason why I ask is because I noticed some of my zoas had gone missing. Upon closer inspection I noticed that nudi's were eating it. I see your stocking list in one of your tanks has a coral beauty, the other doesnt have one but both are missing polyps?

Smitty I am very bad, I broke the law. Come arrest me....and I am hiding a weapon somewhere....youll have to do a full pat down.

Agreed. My BTA only has purple tips, Ill be honest when she is all out and happy she really does look translucent.

Maybe that should be a new rule........I give him credit, Ive seen a few of my friends take in unhealthy nems to nurse them back to health. Done sidetracking the thread now.

No offense to anyone here, but Ill be honest that should have been something the mods put in the rules. If its sick, dont enter it, no matter how "pretty" it looks. For something that sat up there for a month and was the face of LR....POTM should promote health and responsible reefing. just my...
