Hey everyone I have had my 20 gallon nano up and running for 5-6 months now and the last 2 weeks I have been dealing with an algae outbreak. I syphoned it out 5 times and have done 2 30%water changes to get rid of it. Nothing works so far. Now I will say I did add about 3 or four pounds of sand...

Hey everyone, I have an innovative marine 20g Nuvo aquarium that's been set up for about 5 months. There are no fish in the tank. Only corals, hermits, snails, emerald crab and the Fire and peppermint. I noticed the other day that I have about 40-50 baby shrimp in my tank! I have never heard of...

Hey guys I just wanted to show you guys my innovative marine nuvo 20 gallon tank I have had set up for 3 weeks now. Now I do have a bubble tip in my tank since this past Sunday. I am keeping a close eye on it and if I feel like it is not doing well I will acclimate it to my 60g cube that has...

Hey guys! First off, it's good to be back on the forum. Haven't been on in close to a year! here is my question. I have a "true" Percula clown and I purchased a "false" Percula about a month later. They have since been in the same take together for the last 9 months. They don't fight with each...

Hey guys! So here what I got going on. I just picked up a 180g reef ready aquarium (dual corner overflow/returns), stand, canopy, 60g sump, and a danner mag 18 return for $250! Great looking tank and great price, however the trim on the bottom is broken on the left side... I inspected the glass...

Hey everyone. So I have been Aquascaping the last 2 weeks and I finally got it the way I wanted, so I epoxied the rocks into sections that fit together like a puzzle so I have no risk of collapse.... But I just put it all in the tank and now I am thinking it's not high enought!!! :0 :( so I am...

Hey guys, so I am putting together a new tank and I have yet to add a refugium or reactor to any of my previous tanks. My questions are... If the point of a refugium is to lower phosphate levels through macro algae, then why would I need a phosphate reactor on the sump as well? Won't the reactor...

Hey everyone, I just wanted to show u all my little evolve 8 pico reef. I do have one fish in the tank, a yellow tail blue damsel and the rest are inverts and corals. On the tank is mostly LPSs. I just added a tyree green toadstool and a yellow gonipora today so I hope they acclimate soon...

I bought this coral from my LFS, but their reef guy was not there so no one could tell me. I think it's a brown torch coral. Thanks guys!

Hello all, can someone identify this coral please. I got it from a LFS thinking it was a torch, but not really sure. Thanks guys

A friend of mine gave me this coral because it was too big for his Nano. He got it from a LFS but he does not know what it is. And I don't either. Lol

I have had my foxface for only about 9 or 10 days. And he still has a brown tint on the top half of his body where he should be solid yellow. Now I know that this is a sign that he could be stressed but I can't figure out from what and I want to make sure it's nothing serious. My tank prams are...

Hey guys I have a GBTA in a tank that does not have the optimum lighting for an anemone. I heard anemones can live in less than ideal lighting if supplemented with meaty foods, my girlfriend basically forced me to get an anemone for the maroon clown, and I was actually trying to find out what...

I got this from a LFS a few months ago. The frag had 5 heads when I got it. It's grown but I am not sure what it is.

Hey everyone. I just picked up a Bubble Tip Anemone from my LFS today so my maroon clown would have something to do... I figured it would take a while for the clown to host, but she took to the BTA instantly. I mean as soon as the nem touched down on the rock she was in it! I am super happy...

What are the talk tell signs that your tank has too much flow? My sand is ripples in it. Is this a sigh that I need to cut a powerhead off?

Now I hate to beat a dead dead horse but is is this whole 6' tank minimum a preference or is it a proven fact? I can't get a clear idea. I have a 125g tall tank so it's only 48" long. Safe or do I stick to tiny nano fish?

Hey guys here is my question for u guys really quick. I am trying to figure out what size heater/s I need for my sump. Does the wattage need to be able to cover the volume of the sump or the total volume of my system? And is 3watts per gallon good? I live in the desert so I am more worried about...

Ok so here is my problem. I don't have an RO/DI system yet and won't e getting one for another month or 2. I am going to be filling my 125g tank this week and I can only carry 10g to and from my RO dealer at a time so I am thinking of using tap water. Now here is what I am thinking and let me...

Hello everyone i just wanted to show off a little of what I am putting together on a budget. So that others can see and give input on ways I can improve my tank. Ok so I got the tank off Craigslist. It included the tank, stand, lighted canopy. What got so far is: - a protien skimmer rated for...

Hello everyone.... I am very excited to say that I am now the proud owner of a 125g tank with a center overflow box. The tank is 48L x 18W x 31T... So my question is what return pump should I get for it? Building a 30 gallon sump

Ok ok ok. Before you all start grilling me , let me explain. A friend of mine has 2" - 2 1/2" Yellow Tang left from breaking down his tank (crazy dude is getting out of the hobby) he says I can have it or he is donating it to a LFS. I have a 29g biocube right now but plan to get a 125g in...

I got this from my LFS today and they called it a Titan Paly but I can't find anything on them. Here is a pic. (They have not opened up yet because I just put them in the tank)

Anyone know what this is?
