ok, I've been diggin through the history, and I've found answers to almost all my questions, except one, haha. I've decided to cover my 75 gallon tank with two 250W MH bulbs, I've decided on the icecap ballasts, a bit pricey, but appear to be the best. I've designed, and will be building a...

I have never seen marine ich before, but these white spots dont' look anything like freshwater ich, they look more like isolated fungi spots or something. except that they don't look external, it looks more like white coming from under the skin, and it's only on the fins, I've never seen...

I'm trying to find out what's wrong with my clownfish. I have two, one looks totally healthy, the other, the smaller one, looks very sick, he was fine yesterday. I spend about 10 minutes every night sitting and watching my tank, and tonight I just realized that my smaller clownfish is sick...

Yes, one bristleworm, that I've seen. It's huge, and seems to prefer sand sifting, from what I can tell it's not of the violent type :D I am still waiting on the camera, but I will get it soon I hope, I got the Key's rock btw, I ordered gulf rock, but they upgraded me to keys for some reason...

Well, rocks in the tank, came with a ton of life, couple brittle stars, a bristle worm, about 5 inches long, tons of little corals that will probably die in my tank :( :( :(. Also one of them mantis shrimps, but thankfully it didn't make the trip, beautiful shrimp though, all blue and glowing...

LR's has shipped my new 40 lbs and it's due here by noon tomorrow!!! I'll post pics when I get them taken and all. Zach has been great to work with the whole way, and I'm glad to hear that they are back up and running after the hurricanes!!!! Joshua...

Well, it seems as if the tang died of starvation, I'd had it for over 3 months, and it always ate just fine, but apparently it just stopped a few days ago while I was out of town. A few other people have told e that this isn't a totally uncommon thing for powder blue tangs in non reef tanks...

I don't know what to say, I just got home from the bars, and my blue tang is dead, I'm almost in tears, this was my all time favorite fish without a doubt... Joshua...

Haha, I meant to say it would be in the spray paint section, that is what they said on trading spaces. I am by no means above typing, or speaking for that matter, things which I don't quite mean, my bad, and thanks for the catch. Joshua...

Your gonna fight ths problem for at least two weeks, you should be able to leave the valve totally closed without it filling the cup though, I close mine often when I clean out the cup so it doesn't foam over. I wish you to know that this skimmer was designed to be used in sump, and then they...

We can classify this between the junk and needs tweaking categories :D If you are using it hangon, you will ALWAYS have bubbles, the way they are, used in sump, not to bad, but good?? not so much Good luck with this skimmer!!! HTH, Joshua...

That is great, and I'm happy for you. Unfortunatly you belong to a group of around 10 people in the entire world who have had good luck with this skimmer!!! The vast majority of us don't, and in fact HATE this skimmer, I am planning on giving mine away free when I can finally upgrade. Joshua...

These are some of the worst skimmers made, hands down. Two of them will run you around 200 dollars USD, you can get the AquaC for less than twice as much. To me, this is one of those mistakes you DON'T want to make. I am currently using a Seaclone, and wish every other day when I have to fix...

Again, welcome to AA!! The biggest suggestion I can make is to order your rock from lrs.com instead of dr foster and smith. LR's rock won't need to be cured for NEARLY as long. Also, much better quality, and a lot better life. I dont' get in the habbit of recommendations, but I'd look into...

My clowns Oddly enough I think they are paired, not 100 percent positive yet, but almost there. I actually just picked these two out at random when the lfs had a 14.99 special one time. They have both grown beautifully and I'm wondering when and if they are going to start spawning, haha...

My fishie tank :D This is my newest full shot. www.nyghtone.com/images/09212004.jpg Enjoy, Joshua...

YES, please share, please plaese please!!!! Joshua...

I think the term nemo is cute and a good way to ATTRACT new people to the hobby, we always seem to get to caught up in being "right". We need to remember that nothing had a name until humans gave it one, and language has evolved for thousands of years. If the movie changed the name of the fish...

There is a calculator on this website that will tell you exactly, it's on the menu bar up top, FYI, those measurements are 360 gallons. HTH, Joshua...

I'm just curious. Is there any reason why you couldn't make saltwater out of simple kosher salt from the 50 cent a pound box??? It's basically pure sodium with no trace minerals I know, but are these nessesary for a FO tank? Or are they very important??? I searched like crazy and couldn't...

Great idea using the bigger pipe, amazing how something so simple is something I NEVER would have thought of, bravo!!! HTH, Joshua...

How come they get to stock their tanks with so many fish and we don't :( :( :(, hahahahaha Joshua...

I have four right angles in my plumbing, it supposedly slows down flow, but according to my fluid engineer best friend(aint it great to have friend), in a 1" tube flowing 500 gph each right angle would only account for around 5 gph loss with 3" of head pressure. So if you have your pump and...

I have a slightly different suggestion for you. I think that you should go with a brackish tank, seeing as how you are already familiar with salt a tad bit :wink: You can keep a Beta, which is just beautiful, and I'd recommend some, as in two, haha, bumblebee gobies, they are incredible little...
