Just wondering if anyone had experience/thoughts on having a lemonpeel angel and a flame angel in the same 55 G tank? I know I will probably have to introduce them at the same time if I want to make them not aggressive to each other, but do you think that will be enough? Currently I have 2 O...

So I just thought I would see if anyone had any opinions on the idea of introducing a coral banded shrimp as my first specimen to my 55 Gallon SW tank. This is my first tank. I've been curing for about a month and have 0 nitrite, nitrate, and ammonia... a steady temp (79F), a steady salinity...

So this is my first SW tank and I've got about 50/50 LR and Base Rock curing in the tank right now. I left for a couple days and when I come back this is what I see (pictures attached)... Is the white fuzzy stuff normal? I've never noticed it in my freshwater so I thought I should check. It's...

Ok heres a picture... i just noticed last night that my 55 gallon FW w/ guppies and a pleco has a new visitor... It's a little white fuzzy "plant" than has sprouted on a couple of the rocks... It's very tiny and very hard to see as it is semi-clear. Any one know what it is or how to get rid of...

Been researching and posting for a month or two and I've started my build. The idea is to connect my 40 gallon tank with the 20 Gallon, as a psuedo refugium. Here's the progress so far: Erected the stand over the weekend. Nothing flashy, just simple, way too sturdy, and clean. Gives me access...

OK, so I've been reading for a month or two and have been acruing equipment slowly as I see good deals (mostly craigslist) Here's what I have so far: AquaC Remora Pro (Rio 1400 pump) 20 Gallon Tall tank 40 Gallon Tall tank Hydor Nano Powerhead Eclipse hood w/ Filter (40 Gallon Tank) Coralife...

THis could be a very dumb question, but as I am new to the saltwater arena I thought I would double check... Is it possible to over-skim? I.E. buy a skimmer rated too big for your tank? Would it take out too many nutrients? I read something about it on a personal aquarium site, but I figured I...

As i'm getting ready to start the SW tank, I only need a couple more things... one being a Reverse Osmosis machine... Now, I figure since I only have a 20 Gallon tank that I don't really need some huge deal (nor do I have the room for it in my apartment). Where are good places to get them...

OK, i'm new to the SW scene... I've read a book, articles (a couple on here) and I think i've got a good idea. Now, the other day I was at Petco and saw a tank sale... so I bought a 20g. Here's an equipment list... Do I have everything? Think it will be ok? Protein Skimmer: AquaC Remora w/...

Hi, I am contemplating starting my first saltwater tank in a small 20 gallon glass tank I picked up a week or two ago. I've been researching all of the different hardware and techniques for running an FO or FOWLR setup and I had a simple question about Protein Skimmers.... I live in San Diego...

Hey! Recently moved to San Diego, CA and set up a 55 Gallon freshwater tank that I got just before the move. I'm just getting back into the hobby and after a two and a half week cycle, I have gotten some guppies... they look healthy and happy and I will be getting some more fish in a couple...
