I did not mean to imply that he do nothing and just get the probe, I meant get the probe to help prevent further issues. I have several friends who include those in this business 20+ years as well, and they all recommend the probe, so I guess its a matter of opinion.

That's not cheating...its called working smarter, not harder. I do the same thing from 32 gal brute in my garage as well as pumping the water out of my sumps for water changes... :)

I wouldn't go that far. Just take your time adding the recommended amount, make sure everything is doing well. Then you can adjust when needed. I do not know of any benefit to "overdosing" chemicals or for that matter, any negative affects from it.

If you do not already have one, get a grounding probe for your tank. It will save your livestock in case of an electrical charge. Just my 2 cents....

I agree with x...just make sure you are testing frequently for calc, mag and alk. I am sure you will need to make adjustments once you add all that coral.

I bought a frogspawn hoping for the same results...didn't happen....instead, one clown hosted my toadstool, one hides under it and the other just swims around aimlessly....lol. Here is pic of the toadstool cradling my clown at lights out.

I forgot two specimens...a red general starfish which is my profile pic and a choc chip star....

In my 65g FOWLR tank, I have a snowflake eel, brittle star, serpent star, tomato clown, 4 turbo snails, red volitan lion, niger trigger, humu trigger, coral beauty, sand sifting star, royal blue sand sifting star and a strawberry crab, all introduced in that order. I have not had 1 issue with...

Adding anything after a yellow tang can be problematic due the territorial nature of the yellow tang, not just fish of the same shape and color. Obviously not all yellow tangs are going to have the same personailty, however, in general that's just how they act. In my case, I added my yellow tang...

These crabs are also known as "Pom-Pom" crabs because the anenomes on their claws look like pom-poms.

Is it the Frights and Frags show?

Im in Ocala.....just sayin

Thanks! Make sure you either get him at the same time or after other tangs...they are very territorial...

Lol....thanks! I appreciate it.

Oh yeah, one more thing. I hated having to take my light of the tank whenever I wanted to do something with it. I have an aqualight pro fixture on stands, so I bought a hanging kit and suspended it from the ceiling. I used decorative chain instead of the ugly steel cable that comes with it. Here...

Thank you very much!

Thanks! I appreciate the responses.

Some pics of the fish and lights

Wow! Been a while since I updated this thread. Not sure if anyone is still following. Lots to update. I think thelast update I added the black clowns. Since then I have added 5 Ignitus Anthias, a new mandarin, red scooter, harlequin shrimp and a couple pom pom crabs. Added quite a few corals as...

Update....we have a total of three Kelloggi horses and we just picked up a male and female erectus. We think he is pregnant but not sure yet.

I have 3 150w DE 10k Metal Halide bulbs. All three for $50.

Thanks for the link. I am gonna check it out for sure.

Ok well, finally some progress. Got. A light, some live rock and a decorative rock. I put my purple sea fan in there for the seahorse to grab onto. I bought a female Hipp. Erectus and am waiting on a male from my LFS. Also bought a red scooter and a small clean up crew. I've got a marineland...

Lmao! That's funny %$* right there.

Ok, cool. What kind of seahorses do you have?
