I've been given a piece of Live Rock. It had been out of water for a week or so. It's been put in a 2 gallon bucket with saltwater from my tank and a powerhead. How long before it becomes cured and safe to put in a reef tank? Thanks.

Peppermint angelfish. It's a dwarf angel. Does anyone have this fish?

I got my NextReef MR1 Complete that comes with a pump, tubing and a hang on adapter. I am considering running a Phosphate removing media. Which brand would you recommend? Here are the pics for those also considering this reactor.

I'm thinking about going from a regular 60 gallon to a rimless one. My main concern is I now have about 16-18 SPS corals from little frags to larger colonies. It wouldn't be a good thing to loose one or more in the process of transferring. I'm not worried about LPS and softies. Is it something...

I bought this metallic green coral (Australian) today and put it in the tank an hour ago. It looks like a frogspawn to me. What's weird to me is that its skeleton consist of a one big head instead of smaller heads like my purple tip frogspawn.

I am trying out different flow patterns in my 60 gallon SPS dominated tank with 5 Montiporas, 3 Stylophoras, 1 Pocillopora, 2 Seriatoporas and 5 Acroporas all placed middle/high level. Some various LPS and Softies on the bottom. For powerheads I have Sicce Voyager 3 (1200 gph) on one side and...

I would like to upgrade my powerheads. For a mixed reef with an anemone which option is better. It's a standard 4ft 60 gallon. I can do one of the following: Tunze 6095 with Tunze 7095 controller One MP40 Two MP10s Which would be a better option.

This clown was sold to me as Platinum (true perc variation). However, the clowns dots on body indicate that it's Frostbite (Ocellaris). Normally I can distinguish Occy from True perc by colors and eyes. However, this designer clown is hard to I.D. due to white coloration. What do you all think...

Got a new pair of clowns after losing my mated pair of Snowflakes during a recent upgrade. One is a Frostbite and the other is a Premium Snowflake. I hope they pair up. Let me know what you think

I am considering this skimmer. It looks like a very recent release. How does it look to you on paper? Thoughts?

Between Zebrasoma, Acanthurus, Bristletooth and Naso families which one is your favorite and why?

Has anyone used or seen an Aqua Euro HOB skimmer rated for 90 gal tanks? I believe it's a BH100 model. Ironically I am looking to replace my reef octopus BH 100 model rated for 75 gallons. Thanks.

I have two peppermint shrimps in my 60 gallon. Last week I tried adding a dwarf angel. He went after a brain coral and I took him out immediately. Today I saw on of the peppermint shrimp eat the coral. I feed my inverts cyclopeeze twice a week plus whatever leftover food from fish. I thought...

I have a brand new Aqua Illumination Vega and I can put my hands on a Sol or a Hydra at a good price. I already have the latest wireless controller. Question is whether or not the Vega can be used together with a Hydra or a Sol using the same controller? Has anyone done this? They will be going...

My Homeowners Association just posted a notice of power outage next week from 8am to 11 pm. I have an HOB skimmer. What can and should I do to continue on the lights and filtration for my main tank and QT? Thanks

So I have a 40 Breeder saltwater tank that measures 36x18x16. Actually water volume calculator says its a 45 gallon. Anyways, I have been toying with an idea of upgrading to a 60 gallon cube which is 24x24x24. It's obvious that in terms of water volume the cube will hold more water. However...

A new Naoko's Fairy Wrasse found its way to my aquarium. It's a male with really cool colors and is very outgoing. He flashes at me sometimes. The wrasse is definitely my centerpiece fish.

It's happening. I have had these two clowns for just about 2 months. They are spawning for the first time. The clowns have gotten more aggressive too. This is so exciting.

I purchased this bubble tip anemone. It was sold as a green BTA. However, it's more red colored than green. It lives next to my pink tip green bubble anemone and you can see the difference in coloration. The closest thing I could find online was "rainbow" bubble anemone. Anyone has an idea what...

I finally got an MP10 because I was sick of looking at my Hydor Koralia and Sicce pumps. Any advice, tricks and tips on setting it up will be appreciated. What settings do you have it on in your aquarium? I have a 40 breeder mixed reef.

Hi, Does anyone have any experience with Yellow Dwarf Angelfish also called Hiraldi? Any information beyond Liveaquaria and similar sites will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

There is an orchid (Fridmani) dottyback in my quarantine tank and it's been there for 4 days. She has not been in my main aquarium yet. It seems a little faded and there is a roundish white little spot on her scale. I am using Coppersafe and anti-bacterial medication. She's tank raised and I...

Is it safe, given proper dosage, to add Coppersafe (anti-parasite) and anti-bacterial medications to a quarantine tank at the same time?

Could you tell me when a bubble tip anemone would split? What are the signs, if any, of it getting ready to split? I was feeding my anemone today and realized that it's foot was so thick and looked like two anemones in one. Now, I am not holding my breath in terms of its actually splitting...

One of my favorite SPS corals. Picked up a frag. It's settling in my SPS nook in the aquarium. I've been segregating SPS, LPS and Softies. Actually thinking about getting rid of shrooms and zoos to add more SPS. Lets not leave out my green Monti cap. Haha
