    Water movement

    Boy this has been our biggest struggle. We either have too much or not enough in some areas. We've been battling the red carpet syndrome on the sand, so we went with suggestions of putting a powerhead in the back right side on the bottom and one on the right side towards the top, and for...

    Bummed

    Our green finger leather is dying, something has attacked the stalk and it is disinagrating, our main tank was turning a slight milky color, we ended up moving it to a tank we had cycled and hadn't decided what we wanted to put in there, it's only a 5 gallon, but the water is completely white...

    Suggestions

    We finally got the clip on light it's a JBJ Clamp on Light 11" it came with the lights, the Hang on Fuge has been on the tank for about a week and already has provided a safe haven for the copepods to thrive, we'd like to add some macro algae but aren't sure which kind and where to get some...

    Is this Normal?

    Is this a polyp?

    Found another hitchhiker on the rock that our Green Finger Coral is on. It reminds me of a venus fly trap and will fold in when something gets on or scares it. I am hoping this is a polyp and not something I don't want in the tank. thanks for your help.

    Aiptasia

    Got one of these that I just found in my tank, he is big, at least to me he is. I have read from the hitchhikers faqs area on one of these boards that a Berghia verrucicornis nudibranch would work, but I only have one that I know of but I've heard they spread, I also remember reading somewhere...

    coral?

    On our green finger coral we purchased we noticed this was also on the rock it almost looks like a little it's from the Faviidae family if so will it get bigger and since it's so close to the Green finger are we going to have problems? Thanks!

    Growing own brine shrimp

    We decided to use our 5 gallon tank to raise our own brine or basically food, anyone have advice or recommend a good price on where to get eggs to get started? Thanks! We are using a 5 gallon tank with live sand and possibly some live rock that we will be cycling, should we not be doing this...

    Anyone have a 29 gallon reef?

    If so, where do you have your powerheads positioned? What works best for you? Reason is I'm curious, we have 2 oscilating powerheads with sponges that we plan on replacing tonight, but I'd like to get a general idea of where everyone has found is best to position them, I have seen some high...

    Refugium

    Air bubbles in substrate

    Boy, I feel like a postaholic today, but here goes.... I've noticed lately we have a lot of air bubbles in/under the live sand, is this a good thing or a bad thing? We also seem to have some on top of the sand, the only way I know this is we are have a slight problem with algae on top of the...

    It's Mine!

    Last night our hermits ganged up on another hermit that shouldn't have left his shell too soon, I was able to get a pick of them all trying to get into the Astrea shell, the one that was left out in the cold is next to the glass, he got back in later, we ran out and got them some more shells...

    Discoloration on Clownfish from Toadstool?

    Ok, I know it sounds weird, but I'm hoping that is what is making the color on the top of my percula have a lighter spot. The percula loves to sit under there, it can't sit on top or the Toadstool leather will retract. Is it something I have to be worried about or is it some other disease that...

    Normal Behavior?

    We have 2 small TR percula clownfish, one seems to nip at the other one at times, is this normal? I know I should get that one clownfish book and plan to. Also, they always seem to be chasing things that float in the water, we feed the tank with frozen brine once in the morning and then at...

    Homemade or store bought?

    What do you feed your fish? I'm curious as to what everyone feeds their different kinds of fish. I've read on some boards where they purchase just store bought food for their fish while others will mix up their own food for their fish. I think it would be interesting to see all the different...
