I have two T5 High Output Light Fixtures for 75gallon - 180gallon Fish Tanks. These units are 4x54w units and they are in great condition. Both units together will supply 432 watts of lighting which is more than enough for your basic salt water reef tank. I am asking 300.00 firm for both units...

Hello Everyone: I made some rock using the recipe from GARF. It has been soaking now for a little over 2 months. How soon can I add it to my tank? I have live animals in my tank and I don't want to cause them harm. So, at what pH level will it be okay to add the rock to my tank?

Okay.....I am trying to get my 75 gallon tank together and ready for a small reef. I have been having some ridiculous green hair algae outbreaks and I could use any input that you guys may have. I currently have the following: 75 gallon tank 30 gallon sump Protein Skimmer Lighting (2x36watt...

My salinity is 1.025, my nitrates and nitrites are near 0ppm, my phosphates are at or below 0.03, I have a protein skimmer on this...

I'm sure this has been talked about before. However, I could not find the conversation anywhere. So, here is my scenario and question. I am upgrading my lights from the standard light fixture (running 1X40Watt 6500k and 1X40Watt 420 actinic blue) to either a T5 unit or a Compact PC unit. Can...

I just got a 1x1 inch piece of a "green star polyp" from a friend of mine. I've heard that these things grow pretty fast and will take over your tank. Does anyone know just how fast this thing should grow and spread? What are the determining factors besides lights and calcium?

I have a star polyp that was attached to a small piece of rock at the time of purchase. I placed it in my tank. However, the snails and crabs seem to move it around and knock it about very often. 1. Do I attach the current piece of rock and coral to a bigger piece of rock? 2. Do I detach the...

Okay...I went to my LFS and purchased what I thought was a piece of rock covered with coralline. My intention was to scrape the rock in an attempt to seed my aquarium with coralline algae. After placing the "rock" in the tank, I noticed it open and close. I finally took a picture of it open. Can...

Which option is the better choice? option 1.> A 15watt bulb with 10,000k option 2.> A 40watt bulb with 6,500k Which is more important, the wattage or the kelvin rating?

I have some green areas growing on my live rock. It's not stringy or spreading like wild fire. However, I'm unsure about what type of algae it is. I suspect that it's green coralline algae, but how can I be sure? How do you identify coralline algae in the beginning stages of its growth? Can...

I have a question about mixing salt. I use 5 gallon buckets to do my water changes and Instant Ocean Sea Salt. What amount of salt do I mix with 5 gallons of water to reach 1.022 salinity? Is there a certain formula that I have to use?
