    First anemone/light needed

    I am looking into getting a anenome for the first time. I am about to buy a new light also. I had a power compact with 2 blue 2 light and a moon light but that I was told wasn't enough. What do you need for anenomes? Is there easier ones than others? I have two clowns also.. Advice please!

    Acrylic tanks

    I would go up to a 72gal at best- unless I displayed it in a wall ( which would be great- but I would lose a hall closet) how much do acrylic tanks 50/60/70 go for? I haven't shopped around for them at all... Have been shopping lighting though.

    Lighting- help!

    Ive had the same setup since 2003. Power compact lighting with 2 blue 2 white and moon lighting. This comes with 3 cords for each light grouping.

    What made you want a REEF aquarium?

    I have had fish since I was 7. When I was 23 I decided to do something different and do a saltwater fish only tank. I was guided by someone very knowledgeable and got started up right and easily. Almost 10 yrs later it's still going strong and pretty easily for me. I think I am ready to upgrade...

    the cyno that wont leave

    I just read that article on the link and it said:Since Cyanobacteria are especially nasty to the aquarist, it can be difficult to remove once it’s been established. If water changes have not begun to make a significant difference in a month or so of diligence, check your light fixtures to be...

    I would like to see it. I know Choc. Chips are usually stuck to the glass in the petstores....Do brittles hide? They are good sandsifters right? Are Choc. Chips good sifters?

    Copper Testing?

    How many of you have tested for copper? Ive been having a issue of my inverts staying alive. Ive used water from my 1st "old" tank to start up my 2nd "new" tank and I think there may be a trace of copper in it. Is it best to do water changes to get the copper out or down, or should I use...

    How many days do you wait for a NEW fish?

    Is the grace period about 10-14 days? b/c of the ammonia--->nitrite---->nitrate cycle Does it matter if the fish are small or large the cycle and days are still the same?:confused:

    Fish stuck in Protein Skimmer?

    I was just thinking size wise too. The spot for the water to go in is bigger than the Chromis that it had stuck on it. I have 2 other tiny fish(smaller) I just didnt want to see that happen. Im used to much bigger fish than these small ones I am getting for my 2nd tank.
