I wouldn't know anything other than it makes water murkey but i've seen plants do the same to freshwater. >.> I haven't tried putting any in my sw tank for just that reason. O.o

Well it is about 6 months old. and fish have been in it almost 1 month. I have 1 anemone, and 1 Domino Damsel. Now since the bigger PH on the protien skimmer and after changing the flow of my PH's the algea doesn't seem to be spreading. but its still there, a giant blob in the center of the...

Oh no. i just have some problems with the algea. my pH is 8.3-8.4 ammonia, nitrite and nitrate are all 0ppm. I did a water change yesterday and hooked my protien skimmer up with a more powerfull PH and but i guess i'll have to wait and see if anything changes with the algea. if not then its up...

Well i woke up this morning to find green spider web algea i guess. Here and there on the live rock is some green patches. But for most part everything is on the substrate. :(

Have you sold everything? and would be able to ship? im thinking about this!

I put them in an empty styrophom cooler wraped in some newspaper and mabey a handwarmer if its winter time. I make sure they survive the 1hr trip home from my LFS!!

im sorry but what does PWC and CUC mean?

Well i must say that looks like a drunken green webbing spiderman played a prank on you. Still looks nice or should when the algea is gone :D

Well cool thanks! i've seen corallimorphs once before and they were some of the most beautiful things i've ever seen. And i figured i would help it grow. But i guess that means there wasn't enough calcium in the water XD since i left the LR in there for about 1 month before actually put a fish in.

Thank you! XD i was so worried cause i thought i was doing the right thing and then it starts doing something different so i thought it was dieing as well. that would make me sad. :( Since i have the anemonie im going to keep it. But i have the purple tech stuff and it says it puts calcium...

well like i said... it was under protest. But when we saw it in the store it was a dull color and after a few hour's and just a little bit of phyto plankton its color brightend up and it was just happy looking. it goes under the LR around its bed time and pops back out in the morning. I was...

well they were put in there on seperate days. the dotty was firstby drip. the clown was second by drip. and the anemonie was third by drip.

Ok... update on the fishes. The Percula has died :'( he was swimming oddly so i removed him from the tank and put him in the sick tank. Within minutes he died. :cry:

Haha i picked up my my last species before i move. I saw a green cow fish in a tank with a Banggai Cardinal at the LFS. >.> i was tempted to grab all three. I put in a Domino Dottyback ($6) to begin with. It started eating right away. Next day i got a Percula ($13), he's done nothing but hide...

I just had a quick question. Can you have to much water flow? I was thinking some corals dont like alot and then some do. but could i have to much? i just dont know the rule of thumb for that.

haha well it looks like i'll be adding my first fish saturday night. I'll also be getting three more powerheads. 1 Korrilia 3, and two maxi's 1 will be a 900, and the other a 1200. The first fish im going to be getting is a Percula. I figured i might as well get my fiance into this so she's not...

That stinks that you cant find him. im sure he's there. The only time i ever "Lost" any fish was when my fish eating filter sucked them up. :'( so hopefully that's not the case.

Alright. I think i'll be getting my first fish at the end of next week or so. Im in the process of getting 3 powerheads (Hopefully!) cause all i have atm is 1 Rio plus 400 was supposed to be 2. I followed some over advice about putting the fish food in the tank to see if something happened with...

Lol. ok i was under the assumption that the water perameters should be the same for inverts as well as coral becuase they relied on the same thing? i was hoping to get some snails, some hermits, and mabey a shrimp and clam or somthing.

before i got it. the person that sold me everything said it had been cycling for almost 3 months when he decided to go with a bigger tank.

Would it matter if i used freeze dried baby shrimp or will i need to use fresh shrimp? I got the water, LR, and LS from the person i bought the tank from. since it was cycled i thought it would be alright to put fish in given i left enough time for a mini cycle. (I.E. when i got everything it...

Well i dunno i didn't do anything. I just put everything in the tank (rock, substrate, saltwater and left it. I finally got most of the die off cleaned up. But i didn't do anything. And i was told by some people at the LFS that as soon as everything was stable for about a week or two everything...

Well when you say cycle i assume you mean the ammonia and nitrate cycle? well all of my test have come up 0ppm, nitrate, nitrite, and ammonia, the pH is a tad low about 7.8 - 8.0. does that answer your question? or what is filtering the water? a penguin 350 and hopefully a fixed skimmer :D
