I see the emphasis on should but I am optimistic. I buy my water from the LFS. It's only a 12 gal nano. If he eats the shrimp molts I haven't seen it. I saw my Sally Lightfoot eating the hermit's molt the other day. We shall see. Thanks for answering.

Are you talking about the land hermits? This is a marine guy in my nano cube. I can't see him eating nuts. The shrimp are molting just fine and this one has molted twice already with no problems. He eats bits of shrimp when I put them in but mostly he eats algae. But thanks for your...

Really bad molt! This was his third molt and he ended up with just a claw. I wondered why he wasn't moving. :( I have him in a small glass with algae pellets which he is eating. Will he molt properly again? Should I do something else? This happened during treatment with UltraLife for cyano...

LOL. I like the way you are thinking but its a matter of space. Plus, all I want is a Betta and some ghost shrimp and 10 gal is ample for that. When I go bigger, it will be salt. But thanks!

It's a moot point right now because the tank started a slow leak three days into the cycle. Bummer. It was a free 10 gal aquarium from a relative which I had filled and let stand for 24 hours outside without a leak and it waited until three days after I brought it inside to begin to leak. In...

Waiting for macro algae and who knows what else.

My name is Ann and I've been posting and following the salt water part of this forum. My Nano Cube DX reef tank is cycling, slowly but surely. I have started cycling a 10g aquarium with fresh water which will eventually have a Betta in it and maybe some loaches. They are still up in the air...

Brief update on my 14g Nano Cube DX reef tank. PWC yesterday and today's readings: Ammonia 0 to .25 Nitrites 0.25 Nitrates 80 Getting there. Just kinda waiting it out. Can't order the new hood until next month so there's no hurry to get anything in there without lights. Nothing...

Thanks, Treemanone. Yes, Stuart is nice. I've been here since 1947 except for the time I was with my Air Force career husband and he retired and we came back here. We're having a major water problem right now with dumping from Lake Okeechobee into our waterway. Some of the aerial views of...

Probably don't have any competition to speak of. How does internet ordering work? Have you tried it?

Yes, living in Florida has its advantages. I remember years ago people collecting fish from our local reef for their tanks. Probably illegal now. We have two lfs's, one about 10 minutes from me and one about 15. Heading to one in a few minutes just for the fun of it and to get a nitrite...

Thanks for the welcome and YES I have questions. BTW, I live in Stuart. Tank is cycling just fine and I am surprising myself with my patience. Need a hood which I can get online for $139 next month unless I decide to go with something else, like egg crate and a light. Which would be best...

Thanks. I thought so. I even got money for fish, etc. Now I just need knowledge which I expect to get here.

Hi. My grandson has a 29g Nano Cube reef which just fascinated me so for my birthday just recently the family got together and got me a 14g Nano Cube DX. With my grandson's help it has been stocked with live sand, live rocks and salt water from one of our local vendors. This was done May 7th...
