Ok so I'm helping this girl I'm seeing set up a 2.5g pico(she fell in love with my 37g (really)mixed reef) Anyways we're planning on doing a 4 inch sand bed, 4lbs of LR, a hob filter for flow with a heater in it. For lighting I was thinking a single 13w 50/50 PC setup. We would house...

Water levels and temperatures have been rising and falling forever and will continue to do so, animals must and will adapt. Don't let them tell you otherwise :)

^lol now why in the world would you invest so much to keep a few cat and bamboo sharks.

move the heater to the chamber with the return pump

For that 6g I would do all zoanthid polyps of various colors and some shrooms as well as leathers would work fine. I would also add in a pair of harlequin shrimp and then pick them up a chocolate chip star for cheap every couple weeks. I will be doing this in my 3g

I have personally noticed better coral growth and happiness dosing a bit of trace elements on the weekends I don't do PWCs. This is just IMO, I get free kent marine products so why not :)

Me too! I would love some of that for my reef! Wonderful growth!

I personally let mine go as well. However, thats not to say I would LOVE to raise a few of my true percula fry to selling size and get them into the hands of some reefers in my area. I guess it would make me feel like I'm doing my part in a way. Good luck!

I idea IMO, then feed them to your anemones(if you have them) :twisted:

Hey everyone, I have this creature that I've been trying to snap a shot of for the last few months that looks something like a stomatella or limpet but all the pictures I find do not point towards either. I would say its about 3/4 inch and it moves quick for what it looks like. If I were to...

yea you want to fasten the coral to a small chunk of LR then epoxy that to your reef. I use the aquarium safe marine epoxy that is green with the white core and dries white on your reef. SPS corals are not that hard to keep at all as long as you have good flow, and strong lighting with decent...

I would keep him with some moderate-high lighting with some good flow as melosu suggested. These corals are like weeds, leave it where it is at the very least and aim a pw in its direction.

Ok heres my .02 Make sure the cbs is smaller than the cleaner. I have a cbs who is huge! and I also have a good size cleaner shrimp in the tank with him and they do alright. The cbs does not tolerate the cleaner being in his way though. Just make sure the cleaner has enough outs no matter...
