I just bought this light but it's too big for my tank. I'm gonna go with a clip on instead. It's a 20 inch Sunpod with a 14k light and it has the little white and blue leds on it. It's been modified and has blue and purple actinic lights on the sides. $200 shipped Here are some pics of it

So learning more about my tank, I noticed a couple weeks ago I have some spionid worms. I also saw some tentacles all over my LR and thought they were the same thing. Looking at them closer today, they are definately Digitate Hydroids. Up close they look totally different than the spionids...

So I got my first coral the other day, a Kenya Tree. It seemed to be doing well though one minute it would open up and the next minute scrunched closed...I assume it' s normal for them to randomly open and close? How hardy are they to being touched? I had to remove it to take out a piece of LR...

I took out a rock to do some aptasia cleaning and saw a wierd thing on the bottom. I didn't get a picture but just wondered if it sounded like anything familiar. I assumed it was a sponge and since I had the rock out of the water, I just got rid of it with some tweasers. It was white and was...

So amongst all my new tank troubles, Im sitting here wondering...how would you know if your snails are starving? Ive had the tank 2 weeks now and I never see any algae in it, it's alway been clear. Im becoming quite attached to "Bubba" my big fat turbo snail. He's big! Is there anyway to...

This looks like a very interesting tank, does anyone here have one? Im wondering how you would light it since a lot of the view is from the top. Deep Sea Aquatics 34 Gallon NEO Aquarium, Glass Sump & Black Cabinet Stand

Probably a silly question, lol, but where do these random critters come from? I just found an Asterina Star on my glass that appeared out of no where (I assume they are ok?). The tank and LR are 6 weeks old. It seems like suddenly random things just happen to grow in there, which is cool, but...

I just did a water change and had to move LR to catch a fish. I have several of these long tentacle/stick like things both on the underside of rocks and a couple out in the open. They don't move so not sure if they are alive or not. They are all covered with sand. Ive had some major issues...

So when I get my new tank, Im still debating what size to go with. When it comes to costs, I know the initial cost is high and getting all the fish, coral, etc. Once the tank is complete, can you all give me some estimates of costs? Im having a hard time seeing where all the money goes. But I...

Well, just as you all told me, the tank would nuke. Just to refresh, bought a 10g nano tank on wed. (5 days ago) The tank was pre-stocked with everything. It had cycled and been running for 6 weeks. I, the newb, bought it from LFS who told me what to do and take care of it. I can name a million...

Was searching the forums but all threads on this are old and a lot of links don't work. An suggestions on where to buy live rock online?

Just tring to read up and learn. Reading about sumps with refugium tanks and wondered if they were same thing. If not, do you have to keep QT tanks up all the time?

I just brought home my little 10g nano tank a few days ago (was pre-built for me). I'm seeing these wierd little tentacle things on some rocks that weren't there the other day (wondering if these are the same thing like in the other post). Here are some pics, but my tank is half moon shaped...

I just topped off my little 10g aquarium for the first time. It has one of those whisper filters on the top. The water was flowing down off it before, but now that lip is under water. Should I take some water out or is it ok?

I swear, people don't keep fish in Boise. Are any places decent online to buy tanks? 50-75 gallons?

I am brand new to this and have been reading up and researching but have a lot of questions still. I know I am asking a lot, so please feel free to just answer what you like. Here is a video of the tank to go along with my questions. YouTube - Video 1.AVI Within the next year or two, my...
