I want to get a new tank thats a bit smaller, maybe 15, but can't bring along my 20L. Its had a crack near the top and I don't want to keep it any more if I move. I have paired clownfishes, 1 large ywm goby x pistol shrimp, 1 cleaner shrimp, a handful of snails and a halloween crab that is...

i only have 1 tiger conch in my 20 long, and all this time i never saw him. I would maybe see him once or twice a week, but my tank is very dirty with 'sand' every week. I finally came to the conclusion it was all done by him, the snail i never see, has poop all over my rocks, mainly the ones in...

im just getting like 3x faster water, it goes as fast as the black tube now. Every 15 minutes it seems to completely stall and i have to turn my hose on faster again for the water to start.. but it reads 12ppm coming in and 0 coming out, thanks! also my third canister(sediment) is turning brown...

my ro/di unit is reading 0 tds, but i ran extremly hot water through it and i think messed up my membrane because my pressure gauge isnt working and the clean water comes out 2x faster than normal BUT, the tds is still 0. I am filling up my buckets as we speak and will use it, but im worried...

im gona guess and just throw out 6 months, def not a year but at this long my biggest concern was that my pressure gauage was stuck on 0, so maybe the piping is broken? and if its my membrane, how do i replace it? is the membrane one of three canister? i know when i bought it, i read that i...

i was doing a water change today and noticed my pressure gauge was not working, next thing i notice was that the water was burning hot than i realized im getting way more water than usual, and i hear that is bad i have a 75 gpd ro unit from bulkreef supply and have NO idea on what to replace...

i noticed i have a red looking apitasia, that retreated in the rock, but than i noticed a tube i have never seen before. I had my tank a year, and i inspect it weekly, i was shocked to see a red feather duster?, which is extremely tiny. The tube part of it, was not here a few weeks ago, or maybe...

is there any safe crabs / starfish i can add? ?I want to add something even if its not a fish maybe sexy shrimp pair?

i feed like twice a week sometimes three times, but i used to feed everyday but I stopped. I still get diatoms like in a week..

everyday I baster it off, everyday it comes back. Is there something I can buy that will eat that stuff? I have a good cleanup crew but my powerheads get dirty fast, I will eventually just clean them in my next water change but it would be nice if something ate that kind of algae, i have a lot...
