Hello, I'm thinking about replacing the stock lighting with one Panaroma Pro LED strip white/blue and one all blue stunner strip. Would this be enough light for this size reef? I have a few leathers in there right now and don't plan on getting crazy with coral. Maybe some zoas, a frogspawn...

Happy Friday everyone! Over the last month I've noticed a strange haze in my tank, from afar the water looks clear and beautiful but when I get close there is almost like this white haze or very tiny particle like debris. The tank currently houses the fish noted in my signature and below are...

I woke up this morning and tested my water like I always do, 8 drops each of the ammonia test, 5 drops of the nitrite, nitrite was blue right off the bat, which it hasn't been, as soon as I add the drops they turn purple immediately. I thought, cool, nitrites going down. Tick Tock, Tick Tock...

I have my 55g FW cycling right now with my fluval 405. There is a sort of scum build up at the surface, I moved the outlet of the filter up a couple inches but it still doesn't seem to be churning enough. Would you suggest using a powerhead without installing the UG filter? If so, do I need to...

Hey guys! Where in your opinions are the best places to purchase silk plants online? Edited to add, I want something that looks great without paying the high prices in our LFS and I"m not very fond of the plants sold at petsmart/petco...too plasticy looking..if that makes sense.

Good Morning. I'm starting a new 55 gal that I've mentioned in another thread. The canapy came with a light fixture and two bulbs (The genius I got this from glued the fixture to the canapy, but that is another rant) LOL. There is one Coralife standard Fluo. bulb and one Coralife Actinic blue...
