Hello, I have a tank that is over a year old now. Are there any products you would suggest to get coralline algae to start growing? I don't have a local fish store or anyone else in my area that had saltwater tanks, so transfer isn't an option. Thanks for any help!

I have had one once before but can't seem to find one anywhere. I need a plastic clip that will sink so i can attach seaweed and feed snails and crabs. Can someone point me as to where to find one? Thanks!

Then its definitely coraline because I couldn't get it off with a sponge. Thanks for the help!

I over fed and my phosphate got too high. I also think there is coraline grown on the glass. The tank is about 2 months old.

Good afternoon everyone! I have a simple question, how do I clean the bowfront of my tank? It is getting very dirty and my magnetic scraper won't clean it. Any advice on what to try? I prefer not sticking my arm in to clean it once a week. Thanks in advance!

Because I live 180 miles from anywhere that sells frozen food.

Hello everyone, I got 2 clown fish on Wednesday and I tried to feed them on Thursday with flakes but they just spit them out right away. Tried again this morning and same thing. What can I do to get them to eat flakes?

i stand corrected, they are not shipped with CO2 but with Oxygen but they excrete ammonia and CO2. There will be build up of both CO2 and Ammonia, which should normally be a bad thing. But the CO2 will keep the water pH low meaning Ammonia, the undesirable and the conveniently more toxic...

As much as I have read on it, yes that's why they use CO2. But I'm not scientist so I may be reading it wrong. Thanks for the advice, hope I don't kill my clowns today!

I read online that if your fish were shipped to just get the bag temp to match the tank, open bag, drain water in bag in a sink, throw the fish in the tank. I'm obviously not a huge fan of this idea but the thing I read said that since they are packed with CO2, that once the bag is open that the...

Redsea reef mature kit. I've followed the instructions to a T.

Good morning, i need some knowledge as to why i had a spike in ammonia. I am currently cycling my tank, i have no fish at this point, only snails. Everything was looking good on Thursday, 3-31-22, and then yesterday 4-3-22, i noticed my snails not moving. I tested my ammonia and the level was...

Good day everyone. Has anyone tried to use frozen shrimp from Walmart to feed? I'm talking about the bags of frozen shrimp you would use to cook and eat, not the actual frozen mystic shrimp. I was thinking about using one and grinding it up in a blender and feeding them to the fish. I just want...

I am not running any filters right now. I don't want to ruin my canister or scum.

I put in 50 LBS of live sand over 48 hrs ago and i still can't see the rocks inside because of how cloudy it is. I turned my power heads off for a day and it improved a bit but nothing like it should. My question is, should i keep running my power heads or leave them off? Also, I am using dry...
