So found out that on monday we are getting the house sprayed for bed bugs. Have NO IDEA on what to do with my fish tank, I have know where to move it. and not enough buckets for everything.... Any ideas? Maybe just run carbon that day and then hope for the best?

Good news guys. It's polyps are open, and getting color back. Hopefully it will turn back to purple. I'll send pictures when it looks better.

I would but in an hour it was gone...

I noticed today that my elephant snail was on my birdsnest coral, then I looked at it later today and half of it is now gone/slimed up to where the jet is just blowing the polyps and stuff away... I thought that elephant snails were reef safe, anyone have advice on...

Calcium is because of the salt that I use.

Last time I checked it was around 8-9

Thanks. Is my water quality fine? Like anything I need to tune up or down?

Not fully bleached, and no, there all in the middle now. Still trying to find the right place but idk...

I've had it under LED's for a few months, I drip acclimated them, then set them on the bottom then moved them up. By fragging a few to place I mean I placed parts of it in different spots of the tank to try and see where it would be best for it.

Alk is around 8-9

Sal-1.025 sorry

For some reason all of my monti caps are bleaching, but some times the polyps will open? Any reason why? I've moved it all over the tank letting it stay in a spot for a few weeks. Even fragged a few to place for a month, and that didn't help. I'm running 15K LED Kissil lights that is = to 150w...

I have some questions about how to get the most out of your corals, I've read using vodka, sugar, peroxide, and Epsom salt are all great for your corals, but how? What do they do? How much do I use?

Thanks guys. Just did a 50% I'll keep you guys posted and try and get some pictures. (blue tang is in there so the lion fish won't get him)

And it won't kill anything? I have some pretty nice corals, and my clownfish finally started breeding after 5 years. I am afraid of losing them.

I was told doing that would make your tank re cycle

So I have a 29g bowfront and full of corals, and 4 fish. No hob filter, just a skimmer, 50 lbs of live sand (3-4 inches) and 50lbs of live rock and alot of micro algae. I do 25% water changes weekly, but neglected my tank for a few weeks and now have 40ppm nitrates. Should I do 50% changes every...

It really is. Lol isn't there a smaller one though?

So I heard of this GREAT LED fixture and it has a lightning storm mode along with clouds and can make your power heads increase when the "storm" hits. I can't find what it's called or what all I need. Anyone know? It would be great on my 29g bow front reef tank. I also think the lighting can be...

So I use to have this thing in my tank a few years ago and I am seeing it again for the first time in 3 years, it's not a bristle worm, it looks like a centipede, it has pinchers, and little thick legs. Every time I see it, it goes away. Can't take a picture of it, or take out that rock. Any idea?

I went ahead and put him in the refug part of the sump just so he will have a chance of getting the shrimp, he's only 3-4 inches and he has some swimming room it's only temp. Once he looks better I'll place him back.

5-10 gallons in the middle. :/

Tried the garlic, not raw shrimp though. I'm also thinking ghost shrimp till I can get him back to frozen. Should I put him into the sump/refug?

Or a parasite. When he did eat he made sure he was the first to get the food, then a week later he would take a bite then spit it out, 3 days later he just stopped showing interest.
