    Strange things popping up on LR

    Thanks guys! I guess I'll have to wait and see. Figured it was a long shot with it being so small. Hopefully it will be a nice little surprise :)

    No, it's not hard. I accidentally squished one into the rock poking at it. It's like a little seedling almost. So strange.

    Not that I've noticed. Got up early this morning and the lights had been off all night and it was still there, flower and everything. I poked at it with the turkey baster and they don't move at all.

    Strange things popping up on LR

    At first glance it looked like tiny blades of grass. Bigger ones seem to have a "flower" head on the end. It's not feather dusters, and not hair algae... I tried to google but no answers. Anyone have any ideas? My tank params are: Temp: 77.2 Ammonia: 0 Nitrite: 0 Nitrate: <5 Phosphate: 0 Lost...

    LED Lighting for 90g

    Wow, thanks a lot everyone! I will have to check all of those out when I get off work. I'm thinking I'll go with full spectrum. Beautiful to look at and enjoy is a big reason for getting into corals in the first place, right? ;) I've heard a lot about Apex, I'm guessing those are timers? I...

    LED Lighting for 90g

    Also what's the significance of colors offered? This one is blue/white but I've seen some that are blue/white/purple/etc. What difference does it make?

    LED Lighting for 90g

    My tank is 25" deep (not counting sand) and 4 ft long. So two of these ridiculously cheap LED's will light my whole tank? This seems too good to be true!

    What to do with Cleaner Shrimp Molt

    It will decompose. If you don't like looking at it, it won't hurt anything to take it out.

    LED Lighting for 90g

    What's the difference between 60, 90, & 120 optics, for only a few pennies?

    LED Lighting for 90g

    I've set aside $450, but I have some money coming back from taxes if I need more. I've seen LED units from $150 & up, so I tried to overcompensate.

    LED Lighting for 90g

    I've been saving up money to buy myself new lights. Looking at LED units, currently have MH & t5's and I hate them. I really, really would love to have some coral! My problem is I know very little about what light (spectrums, colors, & such.. It all confuses me) they need to support them...

    Smoke like stuff swirling around tank?

    I think as long as you keep them well fed they should be fine. Do you have a back up tank to put them in without corals? I personally think they'd look great in a tank with corals. But if you ever do catch one munching they aren't hard to catch.

    I wish I could help give advice on that. All I've got in my tank are feather dusters lol. Hopefully, one day, I'll have corals :)

    I'm sorry yours had an accidental visit with your anemone! He has since learned his lesson I take it lol. Mine is very funny, it seems like my clowns are the boss even though they are a third of his size. For a venomous fish he is ridiculously submissive!

    Good to know! Thank you SO much!! I had actually planned on QT my foxface but after I acclimated him and moved him, he went all camo and spikey on me. It scared me and I thought I was stressing him more than I was helping so I put him in the DT. Luckily foxfaces are naturally hardy and very...
