see thats the only thing, i dont use dechlorinators in my water. i just let the water sit for quite some time before a change. and my test kit is about a month old or so. so its not the kit. its the water.

Mine does that too after i do a pwc, all i do is let it run and within a few hours if not just a day it will stop and continue as always.

ya everything died in the tank about a month ago because my dad dropped the ball i guess you could say on a water change. i have done 2 25% water changes before i restocked. currently its 2 3striped damsels. 5 hermits 2 snails and 1 emerald crab. do you think i need to do another or possible...

I just tested my water in my tank, because diatoms have been starting to show any my tank is like 9 months old. well everything zero but ammonia at .75 ppm and nitrates at about 10 ppm. anyheld would greatly be appreciated

My dad just recently brought home 2 striped damsels for me and i was wondering what is the best food i can give to them. Right now i am feeding TetraMin Tropical Flakes. And i also have some freeze dried bloodworms. what do you recommend i feed or is this good enough just mix it up so they...

okay got it. when i was reading it i was like what? get a smaller skimmer and toss the bak pak well things do change alot in this little hobby and i thought small skimmers were in or something. sorry about that

what is the benefits of getting a smaller skimmer. kind of weird because i was told by the forum to get that skimmer as it would be the best for my tank. and now get rid lol. just nuts

I want to make an update to my filtration (currently a penguin303 biowheel removed and a bak pak rr). I want to get rid of the penguin. my decision is between getting an XP2 or just adding a few power heads. I also have about 25lbs of lr, if you were wondering. Tank is 20 gallons by the way.

No...they will also do this when your aquarium is to as class as their natural homes. Pretty cool ordeal to see.

lol are you home?

maybe you should keep with your 20g since you always are able to crash them. If it goes a year without crashing i would then give you the go ahead.

I bought a scooter blenny from my lfs about a month ago. well the only problem is that i dont know what to feed him. They said that you dont need to feed him anything because he will eat on his own. Well, the problem occurs right there, i dont know if he is eating since he is like the...

Sorry it took me so long to post back on this subject....but they are both doing great...each one of my clowns has taken to a anenome and are each hosting one at this time

I was at the lfs and i noticed that she got in a bicolor angel. Right now in my tank i have a blue devil damsel, and i was wondering if it would be an okay addition to my tank. my tank is 20 gallon high, with 130 watt pc. it has about 30 lbs of live rock. do you think that he would be okay in...

I have had my anenome for about 8 months and 3 weeks ago it split giving me two...which was great but i need to know if there is anything i need to do to keep the smaller of the two alive....it seems to not be as healthy, it wont stand erect(sorry for use of words, couldnt think of another way...

ive heard that they can be fully converted over to sw over a period of time. so maybe the lfs had done that already, anyway for you to know how long they have had them. that would be the easiest way to find out if they converted them.

would boiling it on the stove work. just put a lid on it and when you take the lid off make sure all the condinsation is all dry. and bingo. SALT??? well just a thought. i tried

Amazing

i went to the lfs and they didnt have blue silicone tubing. they had green so i thought it would work since it was silicone still. i guess i will tell you when i get it all on.

also if i start a nano reef, do i need any additional hardware. or will my current set up work fine for it

i have been using ro water and i also use oceanic salt mix. which i have heard can cause more algae growth in some cases.

anyone

well i went to walmart and got some tubbing. they didnt have any of that blue tubbing so i picked up the clear. and i dont think it made any difference. i will pick up the blue tomarrow when the lfs opens.

I have had a 20gallon set up for a while now (almost a year) and i want to do something new to it. all i have is a damsel. which im getting ready to sell back to the lfs for some store credit. then im going to rinse all my live rock because it made my tank go crazy with the algea because it...
