Tonight I checked in my tank and saw my humu attached to the suction port of a powerhead. At some point since I laid down, the tube broke of the powerhead and he got a little too close. I thought he was dead but when I fred him he swam away. Now Ive noticed he has a perfect circular "hickey"...

I recently purchased a 125g on the cheap. Now I can start the upgrade process of my 55g. Hopefully I can get a lot of photo documentation of my inevitable mistakes to show the next person what not to do. I will be using most of the equipment out of my 55 and eventually the 55 itself will be...

Well I have my orders and Im supposed to report for duty at Camp Pendleton, CA next May. Currently I am stationed at Parris Island, SC. My question is how, if possible do I transfer fish, coral, and LR cross country on a 14 day trip. It will take that long because the only time I see my...

Hey all, I am planning on adding my first SPS, LPS, or Anemone to my former FOWLR. What would be a good starting specimen, I thought about a BTA or possibly frogspawn. any thoughts or suggestions.

How long does a tank have to be established before the red coraline starts to grow on the glass. And how if possible can you encourage the growth, i.e. suplementation. My LR has seen a significant expansion of coraline but my glass just has a dirty brown film emerging. (pictures below are...

I have a aquapro 75 wet dry filter and a seastorm 75 protein skimmer. What would be the best way to install the skimmer in the filter. Im still trying to figure out in what order these things function
