what's the best lighting for a refuge. or for growing macro algae

hey guys, i had a bright yellow assessor that went missing 2 months ago. was very small so i thought i had lost him. today while i was adjusting some tubes under the tank, i saw him. at first i thought he was dead, but he's alive. really alive he looked real healthy even. he is stuck in...

that makes sense... crap... thanks for the info

i don't know what happened, i got home today and my anemone was missing. the water has become cloudy. there are bits and pieces of what looks like shrimp scattered everywhere. me refugium has white crap floating on the water's surface. what's going on? has my aneome died? and does it...

these are all small fish, only the blenny and engineer goby are over 2 inches.. i'll try adding some more rock.

my nitrates used to be around 20 ppm but now they are around 30.... so worried about it getting worse i need help trying to get it under control. help please 72 gal with 18 gal refuge 80 lbs live rock 3 inch sand bed lots of cheato macro alge 1 red mangrove 5 shaving brush plants 18 hermits...

yes they are the color of the zoos.. ellisz i think you're right what do i need to do?

sorry, but it's too small and my camera wouldn't pick it up. i did find one of those Heliacus sp. snails in my tank so i'll remove it as soon as i can.

there is this weird bug like thing that came on my zoos.. looks like tiny porcupine bug. brown color like a tiny snail with spikes.. does anybody know what this is?

the carbon has been in there a few weeks (3). i have a 72 gal tank with a 18 gal refuge. it also has a canister fliter, the carbon is in the canister filter.

i already have carbon in my filter

my water conditions are good. ammonia - 0 nitrites - 0 sl - 1.024 nitrates - 20 however i can't seem to get the water crystal clear. i have lots of really small white snowlike things floating around. everything in the tank seems to be doing fine. should i try to do something about it or is...

thanks everyone!! i'm think i'm going with 1 inch of live sand bed. wet/dry with extra rock rubble. and a skimmer of course.

what's the best way to set it up? sand or no sand? wet/dry or refuge? i only plan on putting in 25-30 pounds of live rock. opinions please, thanks

ok so i'm getting a larger tank have my options changed? or are they the same? no more 30 gal, it's now a 75.
