I put in a order and will be picking up a kessil 10k this weekend

Oh no! I have to get another one now ? I was hoping that the 300w equivalent would have been enough for now since the tank is so small. No worries, I can pick up another one, maybe a kessil 10k, I'm not sure how well the spread would be to utilize the spectrum of all three lights on a larger...

13x24" tank, so just around a foot of water. This is just a small frag tank, the tank will be upgraded later to a 100gal after I get more frags. This tank will use a very large sump before anyone burns me. This isn't my first rodeo with aquariums but it is with LED lighting and the intent to...

I'm also a little confused about the use of a controller. Can I get a controller to monitor calcium and alk and use that same controller to activate dosing pumps ?

Just got two Orphek DIF-30 30 Watt 120 Degree LED Pendants 1 white the other royal blue. I'm about to get out of the marines and go back home. I got these lights because they where only $300 for both. Getting supplies still for a frag tank build. If I put these side by side in a shallow tank...

thank you, that clears it up, so i have VERMITID SNAILS and an outbreak of SPIRORBID WORMS

also i seem to have an infestation of white things, they are the size of a grain of course sand, each are a curled cirgle and have a micro feather on one end, i have a hundred or so.

my first was my fav fish in the store, a baby striped damsel fish, i hear some people only use them to cycle the tank but i like my little buddy, he was just a bit larger then my thumb nail when i got him, and right after words i had leg surgery so him and i got allot of time to get to know one...

hello everyone, i have not yet left for boot camp, ( there has been delay because of a past injury ) but i have been monitoring my tank and near my polyps which are still multiplying very well, i have noticed a small skinny red tube sticking out of the rock, its about a quarter inch high, and in...

my father volunteered to take care of the fish, he's seen me do allot with them, and if there's anyone i know who can follow directions to the 't' its him. i really appreciate anyone who had thought of the job, im just literally a couple of steps left till i become a recruit. so for a while i...

Hello everyone, i have had a reef tank and a couple of fish for a very long time now, but im planning on joining the US Marines, and however much i wish i could take the fish with me, i cannot, however, i do not want the fish to prevent me from joining the service, my g/f whom i have dated for...

is it bad if i have never seen my emeralds molt? ive had them for a few months now and have never seen a green shell or anything laying around as if they dont molt at all. my hermits however molt offen.

there is an fish store near my house and they sell dead acro, bright white, looks pretty, and i was wondering, if placed near a live acro, would the live acro grow into the new empty skeleton?

as Darwin would say, yes, and soon you will see a decline in fish population, but the strongest will survive.

im sorry to hear about your emerald crab, i really like emeralds, i have two in my tank, one is just under an inch and the other is just over a half inch which i have not seen in a long time, i have not seen the smaller one in the past 4 or 5 weeks, after i introduced the larger emerald i didnt...

but what about the feathers? and the crabs like the drum sticks.

true those are in the ocean but id HATE to have one of those things being pinched by a crab in my tank.

i just thought they might like something new, for example, i put chicken in the crab cage, works very well but chickens are very rare in the ocean.

i was wanting to put some veggies in my salt water tank to see what my emerald crabs might like, i was thinking of cucumber, broccoli, and spinach. does anyone know of these veggies having any chemicals that the veggies produce/contain that i want to keep out of the water? it may be an odd...

if your polyps ever open, i would recommend feeding them blood worms and brine shrimp, they will grow faster and their flagella seem to grow longer.

i have a 20 gallon tall, now lets not talk about the water content, the small polyp rock that i made has been sitting at the bottom in the sand since i glued the polyps on it, the top of the rock is 10 inches from the water surface because of my deep sand bed. if you have the same lighting i...

i was told after i was experiencing the same thing that they would go away on their own in a few weeks. it was driving me nuts, my pretty sand looked so nasty, my rocks looked horrible, and my glass was dirty. however, just over time they somehow seemed to have depleted w/e valuable nutrient...

no one has anything to say about my polyp growth? and i got my lighting for i think 90 bucks at marine depot, its a 65 watt 50/50 power compact w/ a moon light.
