Thanks Guys, I will plug the protein skimmer back in.... Just don't like to listen to it, hummmmm.. 8)

1 - Hermit Crab 1 - Red Crab 5 - Snails It is a new tank! Cycle is finished, so I am just getting to a point to be able to add... It's 75 gallons with 80lbs LR and 265watt CF, sump pump! I have a PS but don't have it hooked up right now! Everything has been going great?! This "brown stuff"...

OK, I have started to see brown algae on the sand bed... It's mainly where the 2 chromis hang out... Am I feeding too much, perhaps?

Hubby wants "Yellow" Can it grow out or rather not out grow a 75 gallon?

75 Gallon, so 1 Tang, correct? If I get tank raised clowns (2) will they take to an anemone eventually? Also which of the should be added first?

Hi Guys, Well I have gone a couple of days now ammonia free! YEAH! So how long should I wait to add anything (clean-up crew/fish) I am thinking another week or 2. Also, one of the live rocks that I bought has green algae on it. It's actually pretty and looks like seaweed, should I leave it? I...

There is a local board here in the DFW area and I am seeing the same thing. One person already has some frags for me and actually lives about a mile away! This is a Great way to share the Hobby and meet other folks! Enjoy the fun!

Hi JohnS and Welcome... I am a total neebie here too and feel your pain... I don't have to invite people over, it's my husband that is the problem!!! :roll: The brown in my tank is subsiding so there is a light at the end of the tunnel! In mine, the snails even had brown algae on them, yuck...

Hi, Crow123... I don't do "fish" for a living, however I can tell you this! Major in something that you enjoy since you will be doing it everyday for the next 40 years.... I believe in enjoying what you do for a living, it makes you better at it and you will excel! Hope that helps some!
