Thanks! I do regular 25% water changes now, so I guess no need for the iodine!

Wow! Thanks so much for your help! Yep, that little nudibranch started moving in the bag! LOL! There are actually two of them. Now, all this stuff is reef safe, right?

In the top pic, the item is actually hard and green in color, and looks like half a clam shell (that's the best way I can describe it). It is attached to a small piece of rock or sand. The second pic, when you look at it from the top, it appears to be maybe another type of coral or polyp...

We just received our order from Etropicals. We originally ordered the BYO reef cleaners, but they messed our order up. I called them and they said that because our order was similar to another, they must have sent us theirs in error. Anyways, they told us to keep this order and they would...

Hi, I actually use proper PH 8.2 I was wrong so it is 8.2. I checked the anemone this morning and found him with his bulb buried in the sand and my clownfish actually in it,the crazy clownfish however was busy last night,he dug holes in the sand right down to the glass and made the water...

thanks for the info,after looking at the tank and waterflow it looks like there isn't much flow hitting the sand because my skimmers drop water into the water instead of being forced out a tube in the water,and after doing the math I am only getting a flow rate of 11,seems 20 is the number I...

Hi, I will take your advice adding a power pump for more waterflow,and my wife does tend to overfeed and for cleanup crew we have a new attack pack from fosters and smith,about 40 crabs,snails and shrimp plus what we already have from old attack pack,which seem to be getting smaller. Is there...

Thanks so much for welcoming me to the forum :) I went ahead and tested my phosphate levels. In the aquarium, the level registered between 0.1 and 0.2. The RO water(from the grocery store) is registering 0. Currently I am only running a penguin bio-wheel 330 and a seaclone protien skimmer...
