I have two Aqua C Remora Pro Protein Skimmers with Mag-Drive 3 Pumps for sale. They were in use for only a month and have been sitting around my house ever sense. They worked great but we are moving to Madison, WI and plan on getting a sump. I pulled then about two months ago to try and sell...

I had the same problems with my two lions. I switched over to Krill soaked in garlic and they will eat that up like it's going out of style. Perhaps that can help you out. Good luck.

OK after much research I have decided to go ahead and build myself a sump. I'm planning on a 30 to 40 gal. sump that pushes about 700 GPH. I was planning on Protein Skimmer > Refugium > Return pump. I was wondering which in sump protein skimmer you guys recommend? I have an idea as to which...

Yeah the Opsanus tau is one of the fish I was thinking it was. The only thing holding me back is that I can't find pictures that match the two I currently have. Perhaps they are just too young. I have become quite content just calling them Toad fish. Thanks for the help guys, Brad

That is exactly what I expected to hear about this. Everywhere I go I find that some people love it and some people hate it. When I look at reviews for my current filtration setup all I hear is that EVERYONE HATES IT. So I guess a split group is better than what I got. :roll: I’ll have to...

As you may have read in the “How to quiet a noisy filtration system?” thread I have been fighting with two Skilter 400 Power Filters for about a week now. My ears are bleeding from the noise they produce and after doing much research and experimentation I have found that these filters are...

Well I modded the Skilter filters and now instead of being extremely loud they are just loud so I guess that’s an improvement. :roll: For the mod I drilled a hole in the collection cup cover lid wide enough to firmly insert some rigid airline tubing. I positioned it right over the skimmer...

The toad fish ARE venomous. That is one of the very few things I do know about those fish. LOL I went to the store the other day and picked up a plastic basket for a dollar. Then cleaned and re cleaned the thing out with warm water. Now when it’s feeding time all I have to do is scoop the...

Well I have looked into toad fish, leaf fish, scorpion fish and now rock fish. I have yet to have any luck identifying this dang fish. The more research I do I’m almost certain that this is a member of the Batrachoididae family of the Batrachoidiformes order. Now all I have do is to narrow...

In my research of this filter I have found that this is a VERY BAD setup to have. I’m almost certain now that my girlfriends brother did absolutely no research before setting up this tank and just went and bought whatever the aquarium store suggested he buy. I have found quite a few amusing...

LOL! :roll: Stupid me, I should have put that information into the first post. I might as well have posted a thread titled "HELP" and then left it blank. :oops: OK I have two "Powersweep 228 power heads" that are submerged at the bottom of the tank for circulation. I also have two...

Yes these fish are quite beautiful but they hide under the coral and sand almost exclusively. I really only see them if I turn on the light at night and at feeding time. These pictures don’t really do them justice either. I’ll try to snap some better ones over the weekend. "Adventor...

You see it’s exactly this type of welcoming behavior that I am so readily impressed with. I have posted on tons of forums under various names and this has been the first forum I have EVER posted at where I was welcomed with open arms as a newbie. A huge thanks goes out to all of you. Brad

Here are two more pictures that I snapped last night. Unfortunately neither of these are very good and I'll try to get a better picture as the week goes on. Again, BIG THANKS! Brad

I just wanted to say hello to everyone on aquariumadvice.com. I have been keeping freshwater aquariums on and off for close to 15 years now and I have recently just taken the dive into the world of marine aquariums. I have posted three questions now and have been very surprised by the quick...

I'm also thinking that a temporary divider is more than likely the best way to go. Thanks for the very quick reply to this question. And to answer yours it’s a 125 Gal. glass aquarium. Thanks again, Brad

Speaking of noise proximity to your tank, what about tank noise and my proximity to the tank? Is there any good way to quiet down a noisy filtration system?

Just a few days ago my girlfriend and I received an aquarium from her brother who is in the process of moving out of state. We currently have one porcupine puffer, two lion fish, and two toad fish. I am currently seeking help from people in the fish identification forum as to what these toad...

Well I have been all over this little thing called the internet last night and early this morning. I have found tons of information about toad fish on the http://fishbase.org/ website. (http://fishbase.org/ is an excellent source for identifying fish species if you haven’t visited it before I...

Well first off, thanks to both of you for the reply. I have been doing a ton of research on the internet today and I also stumbled upon what roka64 stumbled upon for information but I couldn’t find more than that. I’ll have to update my tank information so you guys can see what I have in the...

Hello all, this is my first post on this forum so please be nice to the newb. Yesterday my girlfriend and I received a saltwater aquarium from her brother who is moving to Arizona in the next few weeks. In the aquarium we have one porcupine puffer fish, two lion fish, and two toad fish. What...
