Alright so I was looking at my 8g BioCube that just finished cycling and it has some what look like little grey insects crawling around the LR and the sand and stuff. What can they be???

So I have found lots of what look like baby snails crawling around on the rock and glass of the tank. Unfortunately I can't post a picture until later tonight but they are tiny and crawl primarily on the glass of the tank. They are white and have colored backs for the most part. Are they baby...

Hello all, its been a while because Ive been away but now Im back and have missed everything. Sooo, the tank is doing well except I think I may have some cyano bacteria. I took pictures but will only be able to post them later this evening. As for now, I have found several patches of reddish...

Quick question for everyone: My clown is acting a little strange (even though I know they usually act strange). One is fine and swims all over but this one hangs out at the top of the water level right over the heater for most of the day. Sometimes he swims around and hangs with the other clown...

So I decided to move the tank myself this weekend since I didn't want to wait for the 24th for the LFS to do it for free...(I'm very impatient, its amazing I let the tank cycle for 6 weeks, lol). Everything went smoothly and all the livestock is doing great! I read, reread, and read again all...

Alright guys here is a question - Does anyone know if the Oceanic BioCube lighting is sufficient for anemones? I am not sure and was wondering if anyone can enlighten me on this. The standard lighting that comes in there is said to be sufficient for corals and things so here it is: 36W 10K...

Alright guys, I need to move my 29g BioCube this weekend about 12 miles to my new house. My LFS as some may have seen from previous posts will do it for me for free but not until the 24th and I could technically wait that long or I could do it myself this weekend. What I need from you guys is to...

Hi all, I was wondering if I could get a Xenia frag for my tank while I have a chocolate chip sea star? Would it be ok or would the sea star harm it? I know the CC sea stars like to munch on coral but wasn't sure about the xenia?

Alright guys, I'm now adding to my 29g BioCube and getting an 8g (mainly because the woman a.k.a. the boss wants one). I am not entirely sure what to do with it. Should I do FOWLR, should I do just reef with maybe one or two fish, should I do just inverts...???? Let me know what you think...

Alright experts, would it be alright if I got a peppermint shrimp to add to my tank? I already have two skunk cleaners??:???:

Hi all, so last night I was looking at my tank and on one of the rocks I noticed a small aiptasia hanging out there. Does anyone have any good suggestions as to how to remove it? I hate that thing and it actually looks **** ugly. Everytime I go near it, it retracts into the rock. :shotgun:

Alright, so the tank has been up and running and has gone through its cycle after 5 weeks. Here are the pictures and proof of its progression! Inferno, these are especially for you! :onfire: Hope you all like the tank! 1) The first picture on the top left is 2 weeks into having the tank with...

Ok so I need your help! On Thursday there was nothing but overnight into Friday afternoon I noticed that some parts of the substrate and some of the LR has this brownish-coppery colored stuff on it. Please let me know what it could be and if its bad. We put our first and only fish in the tank on...

So on Wednesday we bought 2 snails and 2 cleaner shrimp as our CUC and they are doing excellent and yesterday we bought our first fish addition to the SW aquarium. We got a blue-green chromis and he is doing very well. When I finally put him in the tank after acclimating him, he kind of stuck...

Hello all, wondering if you could help me out with some advice from the experts. I dont have any fish yet in my FOWLR tank as it is undergoing its cycle but one of the fish on my wish list is a clown trigger. My LFS told me it would be ok and wouldnt bother any other fish, they just cant be with...

1) I have a 29g biocube, should I invest in getting a powerhead (there already is something like it from the third compartment in the back that has a pump)? 2) What would be the best equipment for water changes. I have 2 new buckets already for old and new water but can someone recommend a...

Ok everyone, here's my first posting for my new tank. I have the Oceanic BioCube 29g tank and bought a 15lb bag of crushed coral/aragonite substrate. I also wanted to put some sand in there. Should I put livesand or just some aquarium sand, or should I put in any sand at all?

Hi everybody, so I am new to the forum and new to saltwater aquariums. I am looking to become experienced so that I can expand from my 29g beginner tank and grow to a bigger size and possibly more than just one tank (eventually). I am willing to take any and all advice provided to me!
