This is after about six months of work. It rained a little and already holds water from just an inch of rain. It's about 150 ft long and 50 ft in the widest spot. Probably will stock with bass.

So after I had a heater explode, I started running copper/heavy metal remover. I have run two bags in a month and they turn black within a week. Should I keep adding it till there is no color change? Will it ever stop changing color?

I just think it is crazy when people like repair men or cable guy or friends come over and don't comment on the fish tank. I had a cable guy say "nice discus". I have clown fish! I mean come on. Who can look at our tanks and say nothing.

So I had 40 gallons of fresh sw for a water change for me and my neighbor. I maintain his tank. My daughter was playing in the mud outside and came in and kicked off her flip flop and there it went, straight into the water. Should I throw it out? I cant really see anything in the water...

I guess this is how they propagate. My duncan dropped a head. Thought it was sick. But it turns out, the head that dropped, is doing great. My current duncan has 20 heads. The new one landed and has a new head growing. Has anyone else had this happen.

Everyone I click on it says I need to spread the love first. But it seems like people I have never seen before. Anything I need to do. Coincidence?

How do you know if you have stray voltage? Should there be any? I ask because I put a voltage meter on my tank and it showed .3,.2 and went up and down. Should I get a probe? How exactly do you test your water? What should I ground the negative on voltage meter to?

My brand new finnex titanium heater exploded. Ruined everything in fuge and all coral in dt are looking dead. Aquacave blamed me and said nothing they could do. Called finnex and they said oops our fault, bad silicon, send it back and we will give you a new one. It was less then a month old...

Before LEDs the tank was spreading like crazy. I was selling weekly to lfs. Got new LEDs and growth has stopped. I have a biocube 29 with a 20 g refugium. Tunze skimmer and mp 10. I turned light time down to only 6 hours a day. Shrooms are all retracted as are zoa. All sps bleached out...

I just found this on another forum. Kinda interesting http://www.aquariumwatertesting.com/AWT_Salt_Analysis_0208.pdf

I looked in my refugium tonight and found these. Anyone know about the shrimp. The rocks were just live rock. The clam and the shrimp appeared out of no where. I had these shrimp in my dt before but not seen them in 8 months. The shrimp can jump down to the sand and "vibrate" until he is...

Last night noticed fish eating. Grabbed flashlight and there were at least a few hundred pod looking things swimming around. Then from a hole on a rock, a couple hundred more blew out. What could it be? Were very small. Looked about size of micro bubbles. They were jerking all around. :eating:

So I built a fuge for my 29 g biocube and it is up and running. Has 2 types of algae in it. My water parameters are perfect. Phosphates show less than .25 or whatever the lowest color is. So should I remove phosguard and let algae take over?

First off, I built a 16x16x16 sump for my 29g biocube. My question is, what size pvc do I use for the the plumbing? How do I figure out what the lines need to be. I have read that the return pvc should be smaller than the feed pvc. Is this correct? I am using a 1200 magnum for the pump. It...

I just got a spider sponge. Anyone have one? Any success? I got mine for very cheap. It is so cool. I want it to live.

My friend bought a forclosed house and it had a fish room. She hates fish tanks (good for me) and said I could have all the tanks. So I got a 165g and a 110g for free!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The house was on the huge side and also had a 10 foot tall, 10 foot wide, 6 foot deep tank(as in to the back)...

I bought a vortech ecomarine mp10 es. It is a wave maker and cost me about $260. I have had trouble getting it to perform to the level that I have seen and lead to beleive it should. It is suppose to have huge swells like the ocean. I have not been able to get it to do that so I called...

I went to sea world yesterday and went on a behind the scenes tour to feed stingrays. As tour started I ended up taking over because I knew more than guide. I then offered to donate coral for their propagation program. When I did that they invited me to go into "Lab". I was not allowed to...

I have been trying to post pics and it says a security token is missing and notify a admin.

I change my water 25% once a week. I went to a lfs and their jaw dropped when I said that. They said that is too much. What's your opinion?

I found this polyp eating a sponge. It took me a min to figure out what was happening. Still kind of confused.

Water parameters PH 7.9, ammonia, nitrate, nitrite all 0. Calcium 440 I cant keep bubble bee shrimp, cerith. Nassarius and turbos are almost a year old and are ok. Could it be a lack of food?

This is a kit I bought from nanotuners.com. 30 3w leds. 6 blue 12 white and 12 50/50 (which is 3 blue and 3 white) This a before shot. Sorry about the flash.. I can't figure out how to turn it off.

I had a friend give me rock that turned out to have 4 sun coral polyps on it. I have had it for about a year and it is a pain in my butt. I only feed it. Everything else just eats then. The polyps are small and have slim bodies. When I got it they were just orange spots. So I have brought...

My fish with ich died. I have two clowns that do not have ich. My question is, since my clowns seem strong enough to not get the ich does that mean it will run its course? If they dont get it then won't it die off? So when I get new fish I want to feel safe that tank is clear (I am not...
