My oscellaris clown seems to have these little circular orangish tanish looking freckles on the top of his head. He seems to be eating and acting the same as he did before they appeared on him about 2 days ago. I am trying to get a decent picture but he keeps swimming away when i try to get in...

very true and thanks for your input! That was actually the 2nd one i was looking at. I think i will get that one just cause of how slow 50GPD really is and i do plan on upgrading eventually.

my bad, i believe the new link i posted should work. Let me know!

i found this unit on ebay and was thinking about buying it since i only have a 55g, and it looks simple to setup and is obviously a lot cheaper than most other ones. Partially why i am verifying if its any good. Let me know what you guys think any feedback will be greatly appreciated! :D...

After just looking into my tank shortly after i added my fire shrimp to my aquarium, i notice the shell of him sitting on the sand. So i think to myself oh my its been no more than 3 hours and this guys already been attacked, but i don't have any fish that would have attacked it. So after...

yep its a fairly new tank about 2 1/2 months or so. I left the lights off for the last 24 hours and did about a 20% water change and about 40% of it already cleared off my rocks so its looking better.

is that harmful to my tank? My fish seem fine since it started growing.

my bad forgot about that post

I started to notice this orangish reddish color stuff growing on the top of my LR and not sure if its bad or not.:confused: I have had the lights on my tank on for the last 15 or so hours so maybe its just algae but i took a few pics. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for the tank compliment! I dont have bio balls but i do have a huge sponge filter in my fluval 305 canister and i believe the 2 filters are sponge based in my HOB but not positive. I know fluval makes a nitrate removing media i dont know how well it works maybe i should try removing my...

Thanks for the advice i appreciate it!

Hello guys, I have had my tank up now for about 2 months and i cannot get the nitrate below 20mg/L for the life of me. I have done 5 huge water changes (75% of the water). I added nitrate removing non toxic fish safe chemical (forget the name of it) and changed my filters on my canister and HOB...

thanks again guys for your helpful advice as usual!

good to hear! I was nervous i may have to get rid of the damsels.. Would a black ocellaris clown get along with a regular ocellaris clown or would they not pair well?

I placed 2 very small damsels into my tank and am plaining on adding my 2 clown fish by the weekend when they are out of quarintine. Just Want to make sure there won't be any problems with fighting or anything. Thanks guys!

thanks for your advice guys. I got 2 very smaller damsels today and 2 clowns on the way. I have pics of my 2 new fish!

I am almost to the point of stocking.. just waiting for my nitrate to hit 0 mg/L. 2 ocellaris clown fish 1 Flame angelfish and possibly 1 yellow tang. If anyone could help me with maybe what else to add or if the fish i have listed are incompatible . All the help will be greatly appreciated!

thanks for your help! Yeh well i didnt add water conditioner to the tap water i tested so that may have been it but i will re test as well to be safe.

Hey guys, my tank has been up and running for about a month now and i finished my first cycle. My PH is at 8.2, my nitrite is at 0 mg/L my ammonia is at 0 mg/L, but my nitrate is at 20 mg/L. I tested my tap water and the nitrate in that is at 20 mg/L.. So would i need to use distilled water with...

thanks for the advice!

I did not know that! I will keep an eye on it to make sure that doesnt happen with mine. Thanks for the tip!

Thank you for the compliment sgc!

Thank you jaybird! which macro algae are you refering to the plant matter on my live rock? Or was it something on my glass? Sorry im still a newbie and suck at spotting stuff like that!
