Thanks for the advice. My tank is stable for now. I just added about 3 more pounds of LR. I'll keep everybody updated as things progress.

I am only planning on FOWLR for now. I only want a few fish right now. I really like the cardinals, clowns, my blenny, and gobies. I'm not sure exactly what I want. Im not sure of what invertebrates to get. That was going to be my next question after we got my tank situation cleared up. :)

Yeah....coral is a long way down the road for me, but thank you!!

Thank you. I didn't know if it built up bacteria or anything that could harm the tank. I'm a little new...ok, a LOT new. :)

I get salt buildup on the outside of my tank. When I clean it off a little falls back into the tank. Is this ok? Thank you

Ok...I just tested my water and here are my results. Please let me know what this means and what I can do to make it better if needed. NH3--0 No2-- <.3mg/l No3-- < 5 (it wasn't at five, but it wasn't 0 either. there was a slight reading) PH-- 8.6. This is high even from my last readings. I...

I'm sorry for saying I might have come to the wrong place. I know I didn't, but the second reply I got was more of a "you did it the wrong way, now do it this way" kind of thing (at least that is how I took it). It had been a long day and I am a little discouraged by this who process because...

My tank only has 1 damsel, 1 blenny, and the horseshoe crab left. With about 3lbs of LR, how can my tank be overstocked? I've seen smaller tanks with a lot more fish/coral/LR in it than mine and doing fine? Maybe I've come to the wrong place. To start over would probably be silly since...

Hello. I've had my SW for about 3 months. I've had 2 damsels, a clownfish, a cardinal, and a dragonet die. I still have 1 damsel, a bi-color blenny, and a horseshoe crab. I did not put them all in at once. I don't know why any of the fish died except the damsels. I know that the last...

Yeah, I know I need to upgrade to a bigger tank for my parrot and I will. As for the parameters of the SW tank, I didn't write them down so I can't give them to you. Next check I will let you know. I was not aware of how big the crab would get. Holy cow!! He's really cool to watch. He gets...

I had 3 yellow tail damsels and only 1 was mean. He killed the other 2 and my cardinal. I haven't added any more fish since, but when I do, I'm thinking of flushing the little bugger so he doesn't kill anymore. I didn't know they were so damn mean.

Hello. My name is Brandie and I am very new to salt water aquariums and frankly, I'm not doing very well at it. I've had a freshwater for a little over a year and it is running very well. I have a very aggressive parrot fish who thinks she needs to run the whole tank, but I've paired her with...
