Are the blue lights better for coral, as opposed to blue and white lights? What are some of your thoughts on this?? When the white lights go out and the blue are the only ones on, all my coral and everything in my tank look way better..So I was wanting to take the 2 white bulbs out and just have...

Thanks for the info, I have an established 55gal.. and yes this forum has graetly helped me with issues...I went with Fiji live rock, some Branch rock, Plate rock, and dry rock with the other setup...I was wanting some really nice live rock other than the Fiji, everyone has that stuff!!!

Today I lucked out & found a 30gal. Octagon tank at a garage sale today for $40. Come home to set it up...Bought 20lbs. live Fiji sand, a 200GPH Marineland filter...I really want to get the BEST live rock available, I am guessing like 30lbs. or so...I want to go with a Seahorse tank, but really...

Wow, thanks man...That made a HUGE difference, like new...Awesome now I know what needs to be done when that happens again...Thanks to this Forum I have alot more knowledge on what to do now...

Seems as if my main pump for the filter system has slowed down dramatically from what it used to discharge? All my water levels are normal, just is not pumping out very much water into the filter box???

After some serious tank gazzing, me and the wife noticed 4 very small white starfish...Could anyone tell us what type these are they are really to small to take a pic of, but we have seen them all move...Also I think it is a brittle starfish, round body and ugly long legs, is this correct?? Also...

Yeah I have that Magnafloat thing that cleans the glass, and the Maroon clown does not like it, he actually picks at it when I clean...Maybe if issues arise in the future I will remove him, or maybe even trade or sell him...I hate to do that, he is a really dark nice looking Clown..

I am definately no genious, but all of these clownfish are the exact same size..There is no fighting at all in my tank..I would think they would grow at the same pace, and be basically the same size??They wouldn't learn to get along over time??They all actually stay in a school kind of, other...

Me and wife have noticed SEVERAL of these hairy worm looking things. What are they?? Also one of them has a body and six legs kinda like a starfish..Does anyone know what these are, and when I feed they all extend themselves from the rocks to grab the grub??

Why did you have to get rid of the Anemone? What if I bought maybe a Tomato Clown, they host these Anemone right?? I wonder if I could get credit at another LFS here for a trade maybe??

48" T5 HO lighting. It moved maybe a couple of inches from were I placed it when I bought it...Does that mean he likes the spot he is in or what??

I recently bought a sabea anemone, I also have 4 different types of clowns, Maroon, Clarkii, Ocellaris, & Black...Will one of these Clowns eventually host the Anemone?? The Maroon has been hosting a Zoa that I have had for a while, will he turn that one away & eventually host the Anemone, or...

I was just wondering if the black spots on my yellow tang are normal? It seems to be scratching up against my rocks quit a bit too???

I had another LFS come and do a water change and check everything out. He said it would be fine, he only changed 10 gals. I have also been using saltwater on my sump refills, he did advise using purified water..My salt content or whatever that is was way high..He said everything should be fine...

Well it definately cleared the red slime, I will do a huge water change tomorrow!!How many should I do???
