Toaday I walked past my tank and saw all these pink "things" floating in the water. At first I thought my daughter threw something in the tank, but then I saw the GSPs just covered with them. I then realized the GSP were spawning. Very cool indeed. Here's a pic.

I haven't posted a FTS in a while so here's a few pics. enjoy! March '09 Aug 18 '09 Sump Tank and Sump

Well not a brand new tank but rather a new-to-me tank. A friend was generous enough to give me his entire 90 Gal SW setup. So in addition to the hardware, I now have a few new critters. 1 Blue Tang 1 yellow Tang 1 Bristletooth Tomini Tang 1 Starry Blenny 7 Green Chromis 1 Clarkii Clownfish 1...

Is this an Aptaisia or just a plain old anemone. I was given an entire setup and this one piece of LR had this growing on it. the previous owner said it was his Clown's anemone but the clown wasn't hosting it. its about the size of a half dollar. When touched with something ( not my fingers) it...

Ok guys I have a question . I am getting an existing 90 gal tank setup ( fish , rocks soft corals etc for FREE :D )and I currently have a 46 gal with some fish, rocks and coral frags. so basically I have two tanks to combine into one, the 90. how should I deal with the water? do i keep some...

I'm looking into changing the substrate in my tank. Currently I have a very fine sand that tends to blow around allot with any movement near the sand bed. If I happen to use my mag float to clean the glass anywhere near the sand bed I get a mini sand storm. Its become even more evident of how...

Picked him up this weekend. He seems to have adjusted just fine. He's eating frozen foods ( Mysis and Blender Mush ) and has already dug out a spot under a rock. Although I must say he's creating quite a sand storm in the process. but he's a cool looking fish.

Got some of these frags a few weeks ago and I'm just now getting around to posting some pics.. Enjoy Red Mushroom Green Mouth Zoos Sun Coral Pocillopora

My LFS has one of these guys and I want to pick him up. Liveaquaria says it should be kept in a min 50 gal tank. I have a 46 bow. Will I be pushing it if i put him in my 46? Saltwater Aquarium Fish for Marine Aquariums: Tiger Watchman Sand Sifter Goby I was also looking at the Diamond...

The other night i noticed one of my trochus snail high up on the glass releasing some "white smoke". it did this for a few minutes off and on. I had no clue as to what was going on. it seemd to have stopped but then it released a small pellet. then another , some smoke and another pellet. about...

Just thought I'd post some pics of a few frags i just got. These are my first corals, but not my last. I'm hooked now. Green Candy Cane with its feeding tentacles extended Branhcing Hammer, with some smaller ones at the base Pulsing Xenia

I want to try feeding some blender mush for the first time. I tried some squid and shrimps and nothing else. The mush came out more like a paste. and smelly :crazyeyes:. I put it in the freezer and i'm going to try it tonight when i feed the tank. What does everyone put in their blender...

Hey all, have a question on the best location for a pulsing xenia frag. A friend has given me a small frag and from what I've read on AA and Fantasyreef this coral grows and spreads quickly. I was thinking on placing it on a small rock located near the corner of the tank separate from the...

Hey all, When I first setup up my tank I used tap water to fill it. I know I know, I shouldn't have, but its done. I, unfortunately, didn't test the tap water for Phosphates until now. My tap water shows 1PPM phosphate, yet my tank water shows none. Now as my tank is still cycling, I've left...

Is this a hydroid or some sort of feather duster? Theres a cluster of about 5. the pic shows the larger one with its appendages flowing in the current. If its too hard to see I will post a larger pic if i can. Also in this pic are some leafy looking plants. Algae? Sargassum?

Is this a diatom/algae bloom? My tank has been running for just over a month. Its still cycling. I've been keeping the light on for a few hours a day to help some polyps that hitchhiked on the LR. So, should I be concerned? Do I have to siphon out all the brown stuff on the sand? The brown on...

looks like as the weeks go by on my newly setup tank all kinds of things are popping up. These things look like sponges and appear to not move or do anything else. Thanks for all the help so far. I'm sure I'll have more questions as time goes on so thanks in advance!

I have a bunch of these on my LR. they are tiny and translucent and look like a hollow tube with the "tentacles" on the edge of the tube. they also retract the tentacles at times. I can't get a better pic since its so small.any ideas? bad? good? Thanks!

I setup my 46G Bow a couple of weeks ago with some LR (45lbs) and sand ( not live ). I also have some LR rubble and some live sand in the fuge. I checked ammonia after a couple of days and got a reading of .25 . There is nothing else in the tank other than the LR ( 45 lbs) sand and some rubble...

I have a 46G bow with one Koralia #4 in it. It seems to move the water well but is it too much? When I eventually get some fish will it be to much and prevent the fish from swimming freely about the tank? :confused: Mike

what is this burgundy colored thinng in the center of the pic? Is this something "bad" or just some algae? Thanks, Mike

Got this hitchhiker with some LR I got from DR foster&smith. It poked out while i was setting the rocks in place and has since retreated back into its hole in the LR. I hasn't come out completely since i took this pic ( camera shy i guess) but it looks like its still alive since it does somewhat...
