I currently have a clown and yellow watchman goby in my 29 gal reef tank. I want to add another fish that is beautiful and not shy to show itself. Anyone have any fish they have or know that meet this requirement?

I saw it in my rocks today. I hope it's not harmful cause I would hate to take the rock out to kill it.

Half of hammer on one of the head has died off. It turned brown so I siphoned it off from the head. Well I was wondering if it's possible for the polyps to grow again and cover the head.

One of my cleaner shrimp keeps pestering my new additions. I added 3 turbo snails a few weeks back. One of them happen to have a hole on it's shell. The hole was just big enough for the shrimp to put its legs in there to pull the flesh out and eat it. The snail was actively eating at the LFS and...

I was checking my tank out and saw a hermit's leg in one of the polyp of the Yellow Polyp I got. I found this pretty amusing. I would have never thought something like this could happen.

I got this new xenia but also something that looks like a frog spawn coral. They are right next to one another. I was wondering if this is a problem.

When cutting corals into frags and attaching frags to live rocks are they done out of water or in water in a bucket? If attaching is done in water is it safe to have wet super glue in the tank?

I have an old ro/di unit that is atleast 5 years old. I know the filters and membrane has never been changed. I'm thinking of using this but don't know if it's a good idea/investment. I'm thinking of either buying a new unit on ebay for $120 or only changing the ro membrane and use it as is. How...

I had to restock my tank because of Katrina so now after countless water changes I'm ready again for corals. The only problem is around here all the LFS were also hit by Katrina and are not currently carrying frags. I've been looking online but can't seem to find any frags for cheap. Does anyone...

I noticed something small on a small rock today. It's quite small and I can't make out what it is. I haven't bought any corals for my tank yet so I'm doubting it's a coral. Maybe something of algae? Any guess?

I spotted a small bubble algae a few days ago but didn't remove it. Today I checked and now there's tiny speck of these bubble algae (that I could barely see) everywhere. I was hoping that leaving one in there wouldn't be a problem but now there's atleast 20 small ones. What to do now? Leave...

I'm thinking of making my own hob overflow and sump. I have an idea of not having overflow box on the outside. I would just get something to connect to U tube and run it all the way into the sump. Would this work? And would the siphon break during power outage? Any comments are welcome.

I'm looking to get some fish for my new tank but don't know which to get. I plan on having corals and anemones, and my tank is only 29 gal so I know the list might be limited but I'm looking for maybe at most 5 fish for the tank. Does anyone have any suggestions on what fish would be good to have?

Hi, I don't plan on having corals or anemones in my new tank for another 6 months, but I do have live rocks. My question is do live rocks need light to start coralline growth? (I'm cheap I don't want to turn on the light and waste money if I don't have to.) I'm using Instant Ocean salt. Do I...

Hi, This is my first time ever setting up a saltwater tank. I REALLY need help with pretty much everything and was hoping for some help. I'm currently looking at a 29 gallon tank with fish and live rocks and maybe down the road corals. I'm also doing all this on a tight budget. So to start...
