    Rena Filstar-Now I HATE IT.

    I have four and they are perfect. Nearly silent and all I've ever had to do was replace fine pads and rings.

    Fish dying.

    My first fish came straight from a bag that I got special at the local Petland. One month later it got ich and died.

    Water changes

    I think it's about 3 months old now. I haven't change in 3 weeks and I just tested nitrate at 5.0 No Reef.

    Fish dying.

    There is a shop about an hour away that has nice tanks. Do you think that it would be better to buy acclimated fish from that shop?

    Water changes

    I've done many water changes since I set up my tank and I was wondering if I should keep up the weekly change if my Nitrate doesn't go above 5.0?

    Fish dying.

    I bought a Clown and a Royal Gramma 2 days ago from the only local shop that carries marine fish. They have horrible conditions but these fish hadn't been in the shop more than 2 days. When I brought the fish home they wouldn't eat and I found them both dead today. I have a PH of 8.2, temp of...

    Set up advice

    Yeah unless you bought a hundred dollars worth of Bio Spira you need to take that fish back to the pet shop.

    Set up advice

    You're going to need a heater like yesterday, it's really bad that you have a fish in that tank with no heater unless your house is 85+. That filter is also not going to come close to cutting it. I have that same filter on a 20 gallon tank. You are also going to need a couple of powerheads. You...

    Protein Skimmer

    It's adjustable with the air intake and then how much water it returns. As far as describing the air intake I couldn't do but I have the return full open. It's starting to work now but the foam doesn't stay at the top. It's constantly rising and falling. Plus it's crazy loud.

    Can anyone identify this Aenmone?

    Wow, I sure am glad I have the option to return it and trade it for something else.

    Current question

    Sweet Ziggy! I was just little worried cause he never goes near the current in the middle of the tank.

    Can anyone identify this Aenmone?

    Yeah I called the LFS after I posted this and he said he didn't know what it was called..."Something like a Condy" he says. HA HA! He also told me that it would be great for my Clown. Gotta love small town LFS who are in it strictly for the money.

    Protein Skimmer

    When I turn down the air intake I don't get foam. Why no on the Bak-Pak2? I've seen other Mods on this site suggest it...just wondering.

    Current question

    I hate to flood the board w/ questions but I guess that's what it's here for. My 1 1/2" Percula Clown tends to keep in the back right hand corner of the tank. All my water parameters are very good, he eats well and the fish was bought 3 weeks ago from a very reputable dealer. I was wandering...

    Protein Skimmer

    It is a ODYSSEA AQUARIUM VENTURI that I bought off of ebay on the cheap. It is now working but the thing is incredibly loud. It sucks that I bought it because my tank is in my bedroom and I cant sleep w/ it on at night. I can barely fall asleep w/ my Emperor 400. My new question would be...

    Can anyone identify this Aenmone?

    The tips have a hint of brown but I have zero actual experience w/ these creatures and I'm worried at it's near solid white coloration as I've read that that is bad.

    stocking tips on a 30 gallon

    OK I now have this tank tocked with Royal Gramma, Sixline Wrasse, False Percula Clownfish. They are all great fish and I thank everyone for their help. I also got three blue legged crabs and I'm working on the snails. Now, today I was at the LFS and they had banded shrimp. I thought they were...

    Snail suggestion

    I asked my LFS if they could order me some snails and the guy said he could get Turbo Snails. I only have a 30 gallon tank. If I get Turbo Snails should I only get one and if not what should I get?

    I can't figure this thing out at all.

    Protein Skimmer

    I just got a protein skimmer. I was wondering how long it takes till it starts collecting crap? Also, do I leave it running all the time?
