Okay, I have had my 60G hap/peacock tank running for a while now. Stocking for a 70 should be around 15-20 Cichlids. You are free to pick just about any peacock species. I would stay away from Dragonsblood, OB, Red Empress and Red Fin Borleyi. They are the most aggressive and become the most...

The corals you like are great beginner corals

Added a nice frogspawn today

Thanks! I hope it likes where it is! Unfortunately where we place corals and nems never seems to be where they end up. ?

Picked up a nice plate coral for a hefty discount because it had barnacles on it. I don't mind them and I love discounts

For the ro/di water you can just use a distilled water from your local grocery store. It's water that is strictly water with no additives or trace elements

A refractometer tests the sG of your water (specific gravity) or salinity is more commonly known as. You want to keep it right around 1.025 and 1.026. They are self explanatory to use.

No it is directly infront of the orange sponge. It blends in nicely with it actually. A deeper hue

This is a progress pic of the whole tank

Not sure why the pictures double posted. I also plan on getting a Smith's blenny and maybe a Randall's goby to round out my stocking

and an orange sponge with another coral that I don't know attached and a mushroom came on the rock as well

kryptonite candy cane

Devil's hand

Cup coral

Just a little update: Found my tailspot blenny carpet surfing when I went to feed him one morning ? RIP little buddy. But since then I got 2 baby clowns and a few new corals

BUT on the positive note.. Go test your sea water near your house. If it tests out to be clean then by all means use that in your aquarium

Sure you could.. BUT things to consider if that's what you want to do.. beach sand is generally extremely salty so you would need to clean is very well. Also note that unfortunately a large majority of the oceans water is polluted, so you have to take that into consideration as well. TL;DR You...

I've considered all those things. While they're good options.. I was thinking something more unique like a possum wrasse

Hi all, I recently upgraded my reef tank. Light: Current LOOP Heater: Aqueon 100W Live Rock: ~18LBS Live Sand: 15lbs Corals: Hammer Mushroom 2 button polyp colonies Red zoa Green clove polyp Daisy polyps Livestock: Tailspot Blenny Cleaner shrimp Sexy shrimp (expendible) Nassarius snails...

Yes it is! Items you'll need: Refractometer Power head Live Rock (or dry) about 20lbs live sand AT LEAST 10lbs Sump (not needed but would help) Refugium (made in an AC 70) reef crystals/salt RO/DI water

I believe liveaquaria sells live grass shrimp. I've never heard of anyone selling frozen ones though

60G Peacock and Hap Tank

would another one significantly increase my light quality? because I feel like it's really lacking

Hi all, I'm currently running the Innovative Marine Fusion 20. I have the Current Orbit IC LED lighting. I don't think my corals like it so far. (hammer, clove polyp, button polyp, zoa, mushroom) So I'm either going to get another one of the lights to plug into the system or I will get a...
