Yea pretty much. i have a 250 watt MH, 2 95watt blue actinic 2 maxi jets 900s and 1 koralia 1. Also wanted to say those are some beautiful corals there. The coloration is blowing me away on a few of them. that Acropora Sp taht Ziggy's has really has caught my eye. Thanks for the...

Hey all. Say i was wondering and trying to do some basic reasearch on coral compatability. I've heard about the possibilities of chemical warfare on one another. So far i have a pink octabublle coral, a galexia, and a colony of button polyps. I want to add a few more but dont know what my...

just because i'm a newbie, what exactly is a hypo? and is there a safe way to treat the entire tank for ich? Is there any recommended product that anyone has had success with? And i heard that there are products that you can use regulary to prevent ich in your media, are there any...

Good Mornin All. Happy to say that everything is back on track. The octacbuble, galaxea and buttons are in full bloom. Really need to invest in a QT but does anyone know of a really simple version/model. Is there a sepcific size for a 46 Gal Bow? Again space is limited and i dont have any...

Thanks for all the help. I'm embarassed that did something so stupid. I'm gonna take the corals out and still perform the water change. Luckily i only put one cap w/ just that i just noticed that the Polyps are starting to reopen. I'll keep u guys posted. Thanks!r

lol, my mistake, its called Para Guard... Fish and Fister Safe Parasite Control.

Hey all, i just started to slowly start my reef. I started w/ a octabulble pink coral and a green neon galaxy, and i've had a colony for orange button polyps that came w/ the live rock. Started off w/ about 4 and i now have over 60. My concern started last week i picked up a reef chromis that...

i had a carpenter wrasse and a flasher wrasse. Both They both had to be sent baack. Not because they were too agressive but because they were soo timid of the other fish. I went wrong by adding them after the clown and devil damsel. Another mistake was that when purchased they were in...

Thanks for the quick reply. I really liked my damsel though. Loved its colour and he was my first fish. But i know if i keep him he may become more problematic when adding other additions. Now, w/ me having only a 46 gal, most of my fish cannot exceed 3 inches. I'm also noticing more conflict...

Just picked up a carpenter wrasse. Really like him though i already have a Fiji Blue Devil Damselfish and he is making the wrasses life a nightmare. It has only been approx 3 hours though he heeps stalking him. The damsel is a pretty fast swimmer. Its kinda funny because the damsel was the one...

No i dont have any cats. I'm allergic:o. Thats a good possiblity. Still no sign though i'm still hopeful that he is just really spooked and will come out sooner than later. Thanks again.

Got home from dinner w/ my girlfriend and just had a glance at the tank. She asked where's her fish ? (her fish since she picked him out). I just assumed that he was hidding in the rocks. It has been hours and no sign of his bright purple and yellow colors. I moved some of the rocks in search...

Wow, that sounds pretty good. Is it a hang on or in a sump? I dont have a sump so a hang on is the only option right now. Thanks for the info.

I was also considering this idea. When purchasing my equipment, the LFS advised that the 2 Maxi 900s would be enought. After reading the instructions, at that point i noticed that they only produce approx 230 gal per hour. So thats only 460 gal per hour in a 46 gal tank. Does anybody know a...

Hello all, Just a thought though i wanted to know if my skimmer could be the result of the constant battle that i have w/ excess nutirients/phosphates thus resulting in a littered sea bed. i do partial water changes, approx 5-10% every 5 days, try to siphon as much debris on the the bed as...
