Yea, 1 gallon is going to be a serious pain.

Ordered another powerhead a few days ago, should be here this week. Also, got some more free frags! Not sure what they are called but hey, its a start!

I bought these off eBay. So far they are pretty awesome. No problems Quad T5 48" Light w/ Timer and LED moonlights

I finally got a background. It's reversible so if i get tired of the black, I can change it to blue. Everyone went into the tank great. The guy I bought the polyps from is a great guy. He gave me a little rock w/ 3-4 polyps on it, 2 mushrooms and some red thing lol. There was also a little star...

You can look at my Build Thread. I started out FW then converted over to SW. I used my HOB filter for a while and it worked out fine but eventually you will want to go with a sump and overflow system. You would need a powerhead. I went a good bit without a Protein Skimmer till I found a good...

It's been a while since I've done an update.... Haven't had any issues lately. Had some hair algea but took care of that with some water changes. Just cleaned the glass really well and re-aquascaped for my new addition coming Saturday. I really need to get a background lol Here's what I'm...

Update: Brought a water sample to the LFS and they said My nitrites are low and my nitrates are good. I think my test kit may be malfunctioning or something. They also said my Salinity was low @ 1.016, which I was very surprised because last time I checked it, it was 1.023. So I got more salt...

Well a little update.... I did 5 days of the Instant Ocean pills and his color was coming back and looking good again. The damage behind the fin seems to not be going away but is looking better. I also went to my LFS and they gave me some more meds and I asked them about what his illness could...

Thanks! A little update.... The angel is starting to look worse so I finally got my 10g Hospital tank set up. Got the salinity exactly the same as the display tank. Hospital Tank (10g, lil 10w Heater, air stone and a little hiding place) The flame angel is starting to lose its color and just...

Tanks fine. Other than the cyno outbreak and a little hair algea, I've been lucky. I acclimated them but putting the bags in there, letting it sit then slowly adding tank water to the bag very 10-15 mins for an hour then finally adding them to the tank. Thanks! My son loves Toy Story and they...

Well finished the move. A bit of a pain but overall not too bad. Got all the rock and tank all nice and clean. Added new water, new salt and several hours later, the fish. Temp was right around 77ish degrees.

Well I'm moving sometime next week and get to break the tank down and clean it really well. I found a few tips/techniques on how to move it and all. Any suggestions? Since I have this Cyno Slime outbreak, what could I do about it? Can I take the rock and lightly scrub the cyno or what? From what...
