I have a 24" Coralife 24" Lunar Aqualight (2x65W) for sale. It has 65W Actinic 03 and 65W Daylight 10000k PC bulbs with 2 blue LED moonlights. It's only been used for 3 months and works perfectly fine. The only reason why I am selling it is because I invested in a metal halide fixture so I have...

I came home today from work and saw this guy munching on some zoos on my frag rack. Sucked him up with a turkey baster, examined him for a minute or two, took a couple pics and flushed him down the toilet! Hopefully he didn't lay any eggs.

It's been unusually hot in SF the last few days and when I got home last night, my tank was at 90 degrees. Everything has somewhat recovered except for the frogspawn which looks like it's dying, the GSP's haven't opened up yet and the the hammer coral looks bad (although it looks like it might...

I just upgraded to the Sunpod 150W HQI 14k metal halide fixture for my tank and so far, I love it. The one thing that I miss is the actinics because I loved how the corals fluoresced under the blue light and having that sunrise/sunset look with just the PC actinics on. So I got a coralife T5...

I recently purchased these zoas about 2-3 weeks ago and they have been doing find until this past week. I think something might be feeding on them but I don't know what. I don't see any nudis. But I see a lot of amphipods running around in them which causes them to close up. There is also that...

2 days ago, my protein skimmer broke but unfortunately, I was on my way out to Tahoe for a snowboarding trip for the weekend. I'm going to buy another protein skimmer but if I buy online, it probably won't get here until Wednesday. Is this too long? Will there be serious damage to the tank if I...

I hope this hasn't been discussed too much already but I did a search and haven't seen anything quite this specific. I have some zoas on small rocks and I would like to secure them higher up in the tank because every time I place them, my hermits and/or snails keep knocking them down. My goal is...

I currently have a Red Sea Prizm HOB protein skimmer and would like to upgrade to an Aqua C Remora skimmer. I just have one question though. My tank is a 25-30 gallon tank so an Aqua C Remora would fit the bill. However, would it be ok if I were to get the Aqua C Remora Pro skimmer so in the...

Anyone know what he is and if he's good or bad? I just noticed him for the first time as he was crawling out of a little cave today. I tried to attach a link to a video too but I don't know if it will work. http://s79.photobucket.com/albums/j160/DurTBear/?action=view&current=Newcrab.flv

Has anyone ever experienced their clownfish getting black spots? Black spots started developing a few days ago and they seem to have multiplied. I've read that it could either be blackspot disease (a form of ich) or burns from the frogspawn. This guy has been kind of testing the waters on...

I saw my emerald crab eating a new frag of blue zoas today and had to scare him off. Is this normal?

Does anyone use a Red Sea Protein Skimmer? Mine seems to make a lot of noise and I was wondering if anyone else has the same problem and/or has an idea how to quiet it down. It seems to be something with the air intake tube as it generates a loud bubbling sound. I guess I'll try to clean it out...

I don't know what happened but one of the heads on my hammer coral doesn't look good. I've basically tried to extract all the slime on the middle head which must've been the remnants of the head. Is this brown jelly? I hope it doesn't spread:

I just got what I think is a frogspawn and a hammer coral (I will post pics when I get a chance). What's the best way to place them in the tank. They come as branches so how do people secure them within the rocks? Do people use putty? Or just wedge the branches in between rocks? Thanks for the...

So everything seems to be progressing nicely. I'm currently experiencing a brown algae/diatom bloom so I've started to add a CUC. I have 3 scarlet reef hermits, 2 dwarf blue-legged hermits, 6 astrea snails, 2 nassarius snails, 1 fighting conch, 1 emerald crab (started to get bubble algae) and a...

Not sure what this is. It came in on some live rock:

Spotted these two guys the other day and I was just wondering if anyone knows if this is aiptasia and whether or not I need to get rid of them. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Has anyone ever purchased LR online? I just recently purchased about 15 lbs of LR and 10 lbs of base rock. However, I'm a little disappointed in the condition of the rocks. I don't know what to base it on because I've never done it before. But the rocks definitely don't look like the pictures...

Just hopping on board this thread...I have a 25 gal tank and eventually want to have a reef. I am wondering how people position their PH's. I currently have them on opposite sides of the tank pointing slightly upward and toward each other.

Hi everyone. I just started a 25 gallon SW fish tank a few week ago and have been cycling it for a couple weeks now. I have 2 small pieces of LR in it from the LFS because I got impatient from waiting on my order of 35lbs of LR which should arrive early this week (FINALLY...ordered it nearly a...
