Ok, my new tank is just about done. Its close to being plumbed and im getting ready to make the move. My 30 gallon has about 50 lbs of rock and about a 2" sand bed. I bought another 45lbs of rock that is currently curing and another 90lbs of sand. Now Im trying to figure out the best way...

Another area that has puzzled me with my new 120 is lighting. I know basically what I want and how much I can spend, what is the easiest way to get there. My tank is 48" long so i wouldnt mind either using 2 pendants or one full 48" for the top. Either way. I want to have 2 -250w MH for...

Hey everyone! After having my 30 gallon for about a year now, I have finally aquired a new 120 gallon after buying my new house. The 120 gallon sits on an old solid oak dresser that we have modified to house the tank on top and all the goodies (sump fuge skimmer etc) where the drawers use...

Ok so the whole town and neighboring towns in NY were without power yesterday. It was about a 6-8 hour outage. So far it seems all of my fish are ok. I checked on them constantly since I couldnt sleep last night. Everything is back up and running fine today. Is there any post power outage...

Ok so i bought a chocolate chip starfish a while ago and recently it looks like someone is nipping at his things that point out in the front center. Theres like small white chunks missing like someone bit him. I have 2 red firefish, a false percula clown and a bicolored blennie. Im thinking...

So my tank has been cycling for about 2.5 weeks and things are looking normal. The only thing im looking at now is the fact my water level is decreasing because of normal evaporation. I know you guys say i dont need to do a PWC but should i add some more water at all to keep the level up? And...
