No problem about the corals, I guess I'm a bit on edge today with what is going on in the news and having a 2 year old into everything so if I came across sharp I'm sorry. As far as the nitrates, the refugium has really helped us out and I'd say the large piece of Maiden's hair has helped too...

Well I don't know how we got onto corals or what salt you use or uv's, I just wanted to know peoples suggestions for placement of powerheads but I think we've got it worked out. If you want to go into corals, yep we have some, the hardy ones, we have a pipe organ coral that had about a quarter...

Thanks! And thanks for the link, I checked them out, like the prices and the Zoos thanks!

Got this new coral for a good buy 15 bucks, it's not loaded with zoos yet, but it's got some beautiful ones on it, has a flouresent orange kind and a light lavendar and one that green with orange center. Tried to get some from Bryan on Logical reef his are beautiful but unfortunately didn't get...

Do you have any kind of photo program like Paint Shop Pro, or Photo shop? If you bring the image up under that then you can resize the pic, I usually do 640 x 480 which seems to work ok for me.

Nope we don't dose, infact the only additive we've ever added was was reef success Calcium, but our calcium has been around 500. We don't run a sump, it's only a 29 gallon, thought of it, but decided to do a hob fuge instead. Plan on checking the Calcium tonight to see what it's at. How...

Boy this has been our biggest struggle. We either have too much or not enough in some areas. We've been battling the red carpet syndrome on the sand, so we went with suggestions of putting a powerhead in the back right side on the bottom and one on the right side towards the top, and for...

The peppermint shrimp worked real well for us, it ate it on the second day.

Ours has always been at 8.2 never a flux in PH since we started, at first we thought it was in a wrong area and moved it to a better flow and not so close to the light, then it just started to break away. :(

Well tried fragging and cut out most of the bad parts, changed water, but it's still disintegrating no good parts left, do you think it could have been from a bristle worm? Our other leather is doing just fine, I just don't understand why this one died as fast as it did, it was my understanding...

Thanks to you all, plan on doing some water changes, and have been running the GAC too, not sure how much it can be saved, it was going ok for about 2 days after we got it and then went down hill from there, our main tank is doing so well I was afraid if it was a disease it would affect the...

Our green finger leather is dying, something has attacked the stalk and it is disinagrating, our main tank was turning a slight milky color, we ended up moving it to a tank we had cycled and hadn't decided what we wanted to put in there, it's only a 5 gallon, but the water is completely white...

Ooo, can you post pics, I'd love some!

LOL, believe me even the cleaner shrimp scare me when I stick my hand in there. There's No way I'm gonna pick him up! :P

Thanks, isn't he cool!! I couldn't believe how long he was and we didn't even know we had one until last night, boy I love the saltwater part of Aquariums, so many surprises! :P
