Thanks for the response. I have already bought the little guy. He is around 2 feet in length, but very slim body shape. The eel I purchased goes by a few names, ghost ribbon moray, ghost moray, white stripe moray. etc.. Tonight it ate 8 small ghost shrimp out of my hand. This eel from what I...

Does anyone out there have any experience with Ghost Ribbon Eel? The local fish store has had one for a while and while I was there today I saw it eat two ghost shrimp. From what I have read about the ribbon eels the hardest part about keeping them is getting them to eat? I also read today that...

I was hoping some one could help explain how to properly propagate Anthelia. I have been doing some research and I am still a little confused. with anthelia am I supposed to just cut a single stem or go for a cluster. Also am I supposed to try and separate the base from the rock? HELP. I am...

I was hoping to get a little info on keeping a nano reef. I have a lot of experience in saltwater and have read a lot about reef but no "hands on" experience. I know the basic maintenance but i was wondering if anyone had any secrets they could share about products, maintenance, or even just...

is it possible to get a kenya tree off of a rock without hurting it? Thanks.

What do you recommend for moon lights? Brands that work well and look good. Thanks.

The main fish that I want are a naso tang and a regal tang, a goby or two, and a few other peacful non coral eaing fish. I am also going to have a large filter system.

I am a little confused at how the WPG rule work. Couldn't I have even medium light corals towards the surface where the light is more intense, and low light corals lower in the tank? since the tank is only 20" tall 260 watts of light should be able to penitrate the water right? Please advise...

The tank is only 20" tall and I was thinking they could go towards the top of the tank. My main focus is fish but I would love to be able to add some color to the tank. Arn't there a few low light corals out there.

I was looking at the orbit compact fluorescent light it is a 280 watt total output. I know its pretty low light but I can't aford metal halide.

I am looking at a 100 gallon tank with dual overflows, a large DIY sump, a 100-150 lbs of live rock, and a Berlin classic protein skimmer. Is it possible to maintain a FOWLR tank with a few soft corals? I would like to have some corals for colar and character. Any coments or advice? Thanks.

So it looks like I will be getting a 100 gallon tank instead of a 125 for size reasons. What size tank should I use for the sump? It will also be only one built in overflow rated at 600 gph. I would like to overfilter if anything but I also do not want to waste any money. What would be a good...

Sorry I forgot to mention the food. I really don't think it will find its way out.

You can try the two liter bottle trick. Take a two liter soda bottle, cut the top off and turn it around so that the cap part around so it points inside the bottle. Attatch it with glue or zip ties. A little confusing, let me know if you have any questions.

The way I was planning the sump the water will be flowing over the baffles into the next chamber. So does 15" still sound good or should I make them 14". I was going to use the same plan as this guy on a larger scale. what do you think?
