OK....I have searched on here but I haven't come up with a real "answer" to my question. I recently aquired a 180G tank. Looks like about 1/2" thick Glass. Obviously an older tank but the glass is in good condition and it doesn't even have any hard water film which can be pretty bad down...

This guy should not be calling himself a "Fish Dr." giving this kind of advise!!! http://www.bestpetshopdallas.com/ Sorry, but this seems like a crazy setup and a horrible way to cycle a tank!!!!

Any good for a reef tank? Would they do a decent job? I see them on Ebay and they offer like 300 for $35 and I wanted to know if they were any good. I see some people have caught them wild and put them in, but I didn't know if anybody had any experience with them.

I did a search in the forums and didn't see much on them in the way of keeping them with other fish and in a reef. I have a 125G Reef with a Clown and a Damsel. I am thikning that they would be a meal for the cuttle fish but I don't know for certain b/c I know they mostly prey on Shrimp and...

I was just wondering if anybody had ever tried this? I am about to put together a 125 Gallon Reef tank from a 75 Gallon Reef Tank. I am also getting 2 400W Metal Halide fixtures. The question is: 1) How high to mount the Metal Halide lights. 2) Would two of these work for...

Ok. Here is the scoop: 75 Gal Tank 4-5" DSB ~150-160 Lbs. Live rock 2 2x65 Coral Life Deluxe Aqualights = 2X130Watts = 260 Watts Wouldn't 260 Watts be divided up by approx 55 Gal instead of 75 since there is the DSB? Would you divide the light 260/55 = 4.72 Watts Per Gallon? Would this...

I tried on the ID board and nobody answered, so maybe the someone over here might know... I bought what I thought was a really small BTA at the LFS. But the more I look at it, I really don't know what it is. Can anybody Identify it? I am hopeing it isn't a majano or whatever those bad one's...

Figured I would ask over here too since some might not make it to the Getting Started board. I was wondering how this would work on top of a 29 Gal Reef? I have a regular old light strip right now that came with the aquarium. I know it's not enough with it's 20W for a reef. Would this one from...

I am going to be going to South Padre Island Next week and I am in need of a DSB in my tank anyways. There is no problem with going quite a good ways into the water and getting a few buckets of sand and bringing it home to Houston right? South Padre is about as clean as you can get when it...

Does anybody know about the Green Leg Hermit Crabs? I have seen a few auctions with them and I was going to get some since they are running about 20 for $16. They say reef safe but I wanted to get some expert advice first! Thansk!

Quick question.... When i do a water change, should I remove the snails that will be above the water line before I do the change? All I had during the last water change I did was turbo snails that moved out of the way before I ever had to think about it. Now I have 50+ snails that lots of...

Has anyone been able to find Southdown or Oldcastle in Houston? I searched about 10 places this weekend and everyone has playsand, but none passed the Vinegar test. I really don't want to spend $40-80 for Argamax sand to switch out my CC if I can help it!

Ok.... First of all I am VERY new to this saltwater tank thing. I just bought the tank, fully setup, from somebody that had to get rid of it. After setting the tank up I am having a problem getting the water flowing over the back of the tank into the back filter thing. From what I have seen...
