    Took the nastiest thing outta the tank today.

    Ill take up the least amount of your time cause i see that there are 10000 worm posts. I did a search but didnt find what i found this morning. Its green and red and hides under the gravel. The only reason I noticed it was because it has little green tentacles that pop outta the rocks...

    bright green algea

    160 gal tnak with a sole 4 inch red devil. He's been in there for about 4 months all alone. Went to Cabo San Lucas for a week and when I got home yesterday there is a coating of this bright green slimy stuff on the glass. Its more evident where the filters blow water back in to the tank...

    bubbles? dont like them

    But do I need them?? Its a 160 gal with 2 1000 cannisters, but I dont like the fake look the bubbles give. Other tanks Ive had I used bubbles because I always thought I HAD to, but I never asked if it was 100% necessary. So I ask for your opinions.

    160 gal FO I have 2 cannister filters and topics on here say those are havens for nitrates. Which I have and cant get below 20. Actually its in between 20-40 on my test kit. (Aquarium Pharmaceuticals). No matter how many times I change the water it seems like it wont go down. 15-20% of...

    <-----Frustrated

    All tests were A-ok and the cycle process is over. I put a lionfish in first and then 2 sweetlip clownfish. 2 weeks later I introduced a small bluespot stingray. All levels were fine. 1 week has passed and now my nitrite and nitrate levels are off the chart again!!! My stingray is dead...

    Damn this thing.

    I've been a FW guy for about 10 years and recently turned my 160 gal into a SW. Started this on Nov 26th. Id like to know if I got some bad advise or is something wrong with my tank. Took a sample into the store (Jan2nd) I frequent and he tells me my nitrates are too high and to change...
