I dont siphon any sand out when i do water changes. I do have a diamond goby that rearranges it daily, and i also have 4 nassarius snails. Tank is about a year old. So i shouldnt try moving the tank with all the sand still in it?

Im going to be moving soon so my question is should i wash my sand before i place it back in the tank? I have heard that it will crash the tank if i stir up the sand bed. Its a 60 gallon tank and i have 75lbs of sand. I was thinking of moving the tank with the sand inside still so it would get...

Well i called CPR directly today because these bubbles are driving me crazy. I guess i have the old version since it came with the maxijet 1200 pumps and they are now using the accela pumps. So does anyone have the one with the maxijets?/

I have had my CPR dual bak pak skimmer for about a week now and it seems to be working good. My problem is that it is producing micro bubbles in the tank. If i adjust the air valves so that they go away but in doing so it greatly decreases the amount of bubbles in the skimmer as well. I placed a...

I appreciate the help for sure. Tomorrow im going to get the test kits so i can test my ph and alkalinity so i know exactly where i stand as far as parameters go. Then i might start with zoas and a kenya tree.

Thanks this is def good news! I was thinking of starting with a kenya tree, button polyps, and possibly a torch coral for now. And maybe some mushrooms.

Yea thats wat i figured. Wat would u suggest that would be safe with the 2?

No. I usually turn them on around 10ish and turn them off bout 9ish. Each bulb is 54watts i believe. Is that good enough for most corals or should i eventually get 2 more t5's?

Thanks. Def lookin forward to being able to add corals now so i hope it dont take them long to adjust.

So heres a stupid question. I just upgraded my light from a yr old aqueon flouresant light to a coralife dual t5 with the 10k and the actinic bulbs. Turned it on and my fish are going crazy. Dippin in and out of the rocks, dashing from one end of the tank to the other. This normal considering...

Damsels usually do become aggressive too. The only ones that i would say would be safe would be the reef chromis. I have only seen them pick on eachother. Naturally they are a schooling fish but i currently have 2 left out of 5, but my buddy has 10 in his tank with no problems. You could get...

6 lines wrasses are vicious..that is prob who is doing it.

Thanks a lot, ill have to do some research on that.

Yea its a condy..would you possibly kno if that is its natural coloration?

So i noticed these spots on my anemone. Is it anything abnormal? Its eating fine and is always opened.
