Forgot about this... Well turns out the smaller was also a male , I've since then traded the smaller one for a female... They been great together , do everything together!! Since then I've Supplied a mass population of pods and what not... I also do a daily feeding of brine shrimp in the am...

But it won't be too bad best bet would to set the new sand on top of the old as a a top layer but it's all up to you everyone has their own opinions just what ive gone through :P

Most likely... All new bacteria in the sand as well as the loss of bacteria from the old sand

Corals can go without light for some time... In the oceans there are storms, clouds and even night time when there is no light ... I've shut my lights off for 2 days straight to help get rid of some algae and they're all fine :)

:) no problem

+1 for all Also how old are your lights?

The smaller the tank the less likely you should house fish which occupy the water column, maybe something that spends most of its time on the sand or on live rocks is a better bet +1 for the pistol shrimp/goby combo :) loads of fun to watch!

+1 ^ same with mine

Plastic bottle cut in Half with the top part inverted and taped inside the bottom half with some pellets worked for me but you will also catch other critters just takes time... Caught three xanthid crabs who were digging through my live rocks and killing my snails -____- ... They were food for...

I had the same prob with mine for a month , had been testing water quality always fine but did have a bloom of algae in back of tank... The results were coming out as zero phosphates because the algae was sucking it all up. I changed my feeding regiments as well as using a phosphate bond which...

Sweet :)

If you have shrooms best bet is a plastic water bottle cut in half filled with live rock rubble an just leave them in there for a week in the tank and they'll grab onto something lol

Super glue works great with leathers, zoas, and ricordea ,in my experience, For healing and attaching to live rock. Mushrooms not so much cause they secrete themselves right off of it. Just be careful with small zoas as too much glu can spread and catch on to the sides making it unable to fully...
