    Do serpent starfish

    It just showed me that either that guy didn't care about coral or fish or he just wanted it done and over with.. It was $100.00 and I left a $20 tip for the guy since I wasn't home.. Not worth it

    Do serpent starfish

    When they did the water change they didn't bother turning on my lights so they were only going by the moonlights so they were kind of doing it blindly.. The water they brought over didn't match my SG like they said it would I run 1.027 and they dropped mine down to 1.023.. They also just dumped...

    Coral empty by morning

    I went to bed with this coral fully open last night and I awoke to it empty and odd enough my clown was pecking at it.. I recently bought a copper and butterfly fish to help with aiptasia so maybe things turned for the worse with him.. Anyone ever seen this?

    Such thing as to much?

    Money isn't a issue but I am far from a baller.. I was not aware of that being able to stress my fish..

    Mine also does that and I plug unplug plug unplug untill it starts .. Even cleaning it doesn't seem to always fix it. Sometimes mine even does reverse flow which is weird..

    55gl reef build

    I think I already ran into a problem.. This wet dry has a maximum water level marker and my skimmer water level adjuster is right on it.. This is my first time with a protein skimmer so I don't know if this will be a problem..

    55gl reef build

    Yea I agree also ! I have white sand in all my other tanks so I was trying to spice my substrate up a lil bit for this one :) I'm glad to see my return pump came with a ball valve so I can manage the flow becouse I think that it might be a bit powerful
