    Need Identification - Creepy looking stuff

    Was doing some night time (no lights) viewing of a newly cleaned tank and saw this... After a few mins, it appears the "tentacles" choked the white tube worm looking thing, what appeared like "smoke" came off of it and it started to droop. needed to go take care of non-sleeping kids, so didn't...

    Light Upgrade Suggestions for 46Gal Bowfront

    Hi All, I've had my 36" Coralife Lunar Aqualight™ with 1-96 watt Actinic and 1-96 watt 10,000K Compact Fluorescent Lamps on my 46 Gallon Bow Front Tank for a little over 2.5 years now and I'm considering a lighting upgrade. I've been pretty happy with the Aqualight, and have had success with...

    "Floppy" New Toadstool Leather?

    About the same, but he/she moves around (stretches out and back) some and I am seeing the "tentacles", which I KNOW is the improper term, extend from the face or top of the leather. Lights are already out, otherwise could post a new pic... SW2

    "Floppy" New Toadstool Leather?

    I added this to my tank this Week and it seem's 'extra' Floppy. It came connected to a smallish flatish rock. The "Stem" area under the head is about 6", but seems to "curve" around and connected to the rock. This is my first leather, and I'm not sure if this is normal until it acliamates or...

    Need new Fish Suggestions

    I'm thinking Sixline... the Gramma is similar in color to my Purple Firefish (Purple with Yellow tail), so I think the Sixline would be more of a contrast with what I have already. I also want to try some other (medium light - 192w PC) coral, but will have to frag off some of the Hairy...

    Moving new Xenia from "shipping" rock?

    Today I received a small White Pom Pom Xenia and just finished acclimating and such but my question is about the "rock" that the Xenia came on... it's kind of this ugly Pink, Perfectly square thing that looks way out of place in my tank... Should I, or can I move the Xenia somehow off this ugly...

    Where to buy fish

    Has anyone ever done a little Martix of the online fish stores, minimum order $, Shipping $, Extra Fees (Box Fee, Gas Surcharge, etc), and maybe a "score" from feedback from people who have ordered from there. I know on other Fish Forums (some hosted by the Online Stores) you can get banned for...

    Help Setup Quarantine Tank

    I bought a used 25 Gal (used to be freshwater) Aquarium from a Co-Worker and thought I might set it up as my quarantine tank for my 46Gal Main Tank. I am thinking that I would prefer to keep it running all the time if possible as I don't really have the time to bring up and down every few...

    Where can I find lights.

    x2 ^I was VERY happy with Hellolights.com... Prices wear nearly 1/2 LFS and less than most others I found online... shipping was fast (from CA to CA) and everything I've ordered from there was packaged perfectly and arrived safely... SW2

    2 New Clownfish! 8^)

    My Camera is a Sony DSC-P150 - 7.2mp, and I was taking the pics using the "P" Program Mode, and tired both ISO 400 and AUTO, and of course Macro Mode. I have a small tripod that I was using it, and my Sony has the same 1/2 Button push for AutoFocus. The rest of the pics I took (that I didn't)...

    2 New Clownfish! 8^)

    Have been planning FOWLR for quite a while now and would like to "think" about an anemone down the road for the Clowns... Although not sure if my current light setup would support (36" Coralife Lunar Aqualight - Compact Fluorescent, 96W Actinic, 96W 10,000K Daylight = 4.17Watts /gal) SW2

    2 New Clownfish! 8^)

    Thanks for the Reply, I cycled with 80 lbs of Cured Live Rock (LiveAquaria) and 50 Lbs of Live Sand and didn't have a HUGE spike, but did see the Ammonia and Nitrites go up and then back down to Zero after about 2/2.5 weeks. At that point 5 Blue/Green Chromis were added to the tank as...

    Hi All, I'm pretty sure my 46 Gal has been cycled for a couple weeks now with Ammonia and Nitrites at Zero since about week 3 (Fishless Cycle using 80 lbs LR and 50 Lbs Live Sand).

    Leafy Green Algea? after Clean Up Crew

    I just added my clean up crew last night into my 46 Gal and they have started on the reddish\brown algea that I had on a bunch of my glass and quite a bit of my LR, but today I noticed in its place on the glass a sort of "leafy" small green stuff replacing the redstuff... I know I have good...
