Very good point carey. Sorry I wasn't more clear. I don't use it in my main tanks. I use it before anything is added to my tanks in bag or cup ect. Its a good practice since we don't know whats hiding on new additions. From store or others home aquariums

You don't want flatworms at all !! They are unwanted pest/hitch hikers and multiply quick. They make a solution you can add to bag or what ever new corals and all you get come in. It will kill off flatworms and than add to your QT tank. I have used this and works. Salifert Flatworm Exit

+1 wait till levels drop to 0. Than I would still wait another week or two when the do. Just to be safe and retest water levels. You still will prob have a algae bloom after cycle is done. Better safe than sorry, and cheaper.

Sounds good. Clowns are in the damsel family also. Sounds like u have good luck, my clowns have never taken to a anem. Gratz !! Just keep up on water changes, really consider getting a skimmer, test water at least 4 times a week. You could add a couple T. snails, but try to get some food...

I don't think the crush coral is the problem, but I have only used sand or bare bottom. I would invest in a good skimmer. To me its a must have. It will pay for its self in service it does for you. Tank is still new and going through changes so nitrates are normal. Skimmer and water changes...

you could try to put some shims under it. Only cost a few bucks.

yes, but not the way you are thinking. its the micro and macro marine organisms that live on it and inside of the rock. If you soak the rock in boiling hot water and sit it in the sun for prob a week. Afterwards clean it again let it dry and see if it has a odor from die off. I bleach my...

If I do a pleco, prob one of these: Thomasi Pleco - Rio-Negro Pleco Shoal of corys might not be bad. Even though I don't think they shoal, but still be cool.

List of fish that I like. This is (only) a list to start narrowing down and picking apart. Other suggestions are very welcome !!! Danio: Zebra glowlight Turquoise ____________________________________ Tetra's cardinal neon tetra rummynose glowlight sliver tip head and tail...

Thank you both !!!! I have had A. Cichlids , SA Cichlids , Piranha's arowana's , gars, red devils, green terrors. If it was aggressive I prob had one. All kinds of saltwater. I did alot of down sizing. I sold my 220 and stored my 75, 55,30 long and 20 long. 5 cardinal tetra -- like a...

Haha, well I'm new and wasn't sure... ;-) I will have to check, I think they are on my old pc still. And I was wrong, my Black Diamond Rhom was 250.00 -- Piranha 12" wild caught
