    Contemplating a CopperBand Butterfly

    If you are looking to get something to control the aiptasia...I have a Klein's butterfly who is also a great eater like the one in your 90g. When I first got her my tank had just gone through a burst of aiptasia....one very large aiptasia turned into about 15-20 smaller ones. I got the...

    Enough oxygen?

    Last night I removed my hob filter and set up a canister filter. I have 1 750 koralia pointed at the surface to help with gas exchange to provide oxygen. The hob also helped break the water surface. Will a 55g FOWLR be okay with just the koralia breaking the water? Right now the only...

    Adding rock?

    I have a 55g FOWLR and want to add more rock. Right now I only have about 20lbs. What is the best way to add more rock? If I buy base rock can I just rinse and put it in or should I keep it separate and watch for any die off...is there even a chance of any die off I guess is my real question...

    Waiting almost a month for fish. Should I reconsider?

    Live aquaria's diver's den has a pair of black and white clowns. You can read all about their facility right on the website. Diver's Den is probably the only place Id buy because it is "what you see is what you get". http://www.liveaquaria.com/diversden/ItemDisplay.cfm?c=2733+3&ddid=114620

    Other water options

    Unfortunately it's not about the money I don't have anywhere to hook it up. Is using distiller water better than just tap? I will see if I can buy at lfs but I know that's not the best option in case of emergency...

    I know everyone recommends a RO/DI system but are there any other options to improve tap water to make it usable in a saltwater tank?

    Thanks so much! The blenny has already gotten into my sister's overflows so he has proven he likes to explore and go places he shouldn't lol :) Just saw you are a new mentor. Congratulations!

    Powerhead question

    I thought of those...is there something I can put over it to keep the Midas blenny from going in there? I've never seen one out if the box but it looks like he could slip in there.

    Powerhead question

    Sorry if this is a stupid question.... I'm setting up a 55g FOWLR tank. The top is completely closed with the exception of room for a hob filter. I'm concerned that the hob filter won't do a hood enough job of agitating the surface, concerned about oxygen levels. I was going to add an...
