Is the use of LR Rubble something new, I've never heard of this before. I have Bio Balls in my wet/dry. My overflow is also filled with bio balls, should I get rid of those as well. I have 75 lbs of LR in my 92 Gal Tank and my Nitrate level is very high with to much algae growing on my rocks.

How did you modify your wet/dry once you removed your bio balls? You modified your sump to be a refugium, what exactly is a refugium? You added Grape Caulerpa to your sump. What is that and why add it to your sump. Is your sump your wet/dry? I ask all this because I have a algae problem as...

you can add lots more to your tank. I have a huge snowflake eel in my 92 gal. 1 maroon clown, 3 tangs, 1 angel, 1 huge panther grouper, corals, mushrooms, etc.. My snowflake will not attack your hand in the tank unless you have food in it. My wife learned the hard way. She was talking on the...

Your anemone is going to move all over until he finds a place he likes, unfortunately not where you may like...

you footing the bill all the way to Canada

He is about 3 1/2 ft now and very wide, starting to rearrange my rocks!

Anyone have any tips or tricks without removing all of my rocks, on how to get my snowflake eel out of my tank? He has grown to big for my tank and its time to sell him back to my LFS. I've tried luring him out with food then trying to net him, but he is so damn fast he always gets away.

lando my Blue Tang is very low maint., I'v had him now for 1 1/2 years. A few months after I got him he developed ich, someone told me to try adding a cleaner shrimp to my tank to help combat the ich problem. My tang instantly went to the shrimp for constant cleaning, within a week there was...

I put my first Sponge in my 92 Gal. tank about a month ago. It is a bright orange sponge, very healthy looking. It is now developing black spots. Does anyone know how to make them go away?

Your Trigger shouldn't get sick from eating fins. Triggers are very aggressive. If I were you, I would work out a deal with your LFS to exchange your Trigger for another non agressive fish. :roll:

Bubble Alge Thanks for the info, I have the Bubble type, I think they look cool and after reading your attached article I think I will leave them alone. They started growing after I added a Metal Halide light to my tank.

I'v noticed glass like black/silver balls growing on my live rock in the past few months. Anyone know what these could be?

Blue Tang My Blue Tang found a hole in my LR where he wedges himself in at night and then comes out in the morning. When stressed they have been known to play dead. Mine has been battling ick for some time now. He will have white spots on his body some evenings and the next day they will be...

82F ??? Hara, Why would you raise the tank temp. to 82F when the fish get ick. Does this help ward off the ick? Thanks, Rich
