    Think I could extend the tubing of my skimmer?

    I really hate the looks of my skimmer on my tank. It's a turbo flotor hang on and it works really well. But it just looks so gross on my tank and its in an open area.

    Are corals difficult?

    I'm thinking about having corals but I want to know whether they're difficult to handle or not. Do you feed them? Are there certain things that should be in your water? Or once they're in do you not have to mess with them that much? :?:
