    Please tell me this isnt aiptasia... Pretty please

    Thanks for the speedy reply. I never looked up hydroids before but upon very quick research the white ones are no big deal unless you have seahorses. Correct? They look kinda cool. My tank is pretty much empty one Clarki clown and one mini carpet anemone. I'm trying a slow come back to the...

    Please tell me this isnt aiptasia... Pretty please

    I have hundreds of these tiny thing all over my new live rock I acquired from someone taking down there tank. I have been very diligent in making sure nothing that even remotely looks like aiptasia has entered my tank but it was doubling my live rock for free. I am hoping they are just feather...

    Acrylic cube thickness question

    Great idea with the water. I didn't think of that. I was thinking of taping it up like crazy and using a table saw with a high toothed blade ( metal maybe). I really want to save enough of the top to turn it into 2 matching tanks.

    Acrylic cube thickness question

    So I have decided I don't want to risk it. I am going to cut the tank in half in make a rimless tank. But I want to one up it and make 2 out of it. My plan is to cut the top off then cut it in half. Next i want to attach a new base to the top half... making 2 identical rimless tanks. My only...

    Acrylic cube thickness question

    It is a bottom, a back and a top with one solid piece that wraps all the way around the sides and front.

    Acrylic cube thickness question

    By the way the dimensions are 24" cubed on the outside so it should be slightly smaller on the inside. I figure it to be just shy of 60 gallons.

    Acrylic cube thickness question

    I was given this tank by a gentleman that never used it. I filled it with water to test for leaks, which I found none. The issue I am having is I noticed a slight bulge in the middle when it was full. At first I wasn't concerned but before I drill it and set it up I wanted to double check. It...

    Back at it 75 gallon acrylic

    I haven't had a lot of money for my hobby... lately just food and water changes but when I saw this beauty on Craigslist for 90 I had to bite. The crazy part is I just pulled the stand out someone's trash pile 2 weeks before. Hopefully stocking this thing gets me excited enough to drop some...

    Kuhli loachs

    I loved the Khuli loach when I first got it and then it was gone... I thought it was dead but when I upgraded the tank I found it inside one of the decorations...It was over a year later and at first I forgot I had even bought it

    My tank

    Nice.. I like the charcoal colored tank as well. It's not something you see all the time.

    Live sand

    That should be fine, that is what most people do. The more 'live' stuff you get the shorter the cycle normally is. I did my first tank with damsels during the cycle like the LFS told me and found out later that fishless cycle is the way to go. I helped my cousin start his with 3 small pieces of...

    Live sand

    Live sand is a waste of money if you are getting live rock but either way most people get like 10% live and the rest dry. It will all eventually be 'live' anyways. I just went with live rock which seeded to my sand.

    Not sure what to do . I could use some help

    I was just reading and a couple other sites recommend some other types of food... some even say krill causes some kind of lockjaw... here is a quote from one ""-Fresh Shrimp (buy maybe 2-3 large/jumbo shrimp UNCOOKED) -Squidd (fresh or frozen, just a little bit of it. Tentacles are better than...

    Tiny bugs?...and Aiptasia.....and diatoms

    How new is your tank? I know recently I missed a couple water changes and when I did a large water change I had a huge diatom outbreak. It looked really bad and I didn't really want anyone to see it but they burned out in like a week. I am interested in the little bugs... I haven't had any...

    Not sure what to do . I could use some help

    I read somewhere on here that you mix it with something he will eat and then slowly increase the krill. Ive never actually had one but I have done a little research on them because my son wants me to get one...eventually... I'm sure one of the pro's might be more help though... good luck

    This is what is wrong with our Society

    I find this funny also but on the flip side you would be surprised how willing people are to just give stuff away. At one point in my career I was really hard up but I was doing enought to support my one 55g cichlid tank. I had a set of convicts that just kept breeding and I wanted to try and...

    DIY sump on Corner tank...stuck

    Awesome tank, I really like how you your bubbles are coming out of the substrate everywhere. Great work on your sump. I found a way to get 2 ten gallon tanks to fit on top of each other with a 1 inch gap between( they stick out the back just slightly). Top is going to be a refuge and the bottom...

    DIY sump on Corner tank...stuck

    I have been researching all day at work and came up with a dual tank sump and seperate refuge. I got home all excited and grabbed one of my standard 10 gallon tanks to size up for my shelf and it doesn't fit. :facepalm:My heart sank a little. I have a 54 gallon bowfront AGA. Someone has had to...

    Who wants to see one of the worst tanks ever.

    Well to be honest, hopefully I never have to go back out there. If I did my job right my goal is to never see a customer again. Not to give out to much info... but I do troubleshooting on internet and phone systems.
