Ok, so I've had my 36g tank running a few months now, it's already gone through the cycle. Here's my parameters SG: 1.026 Temp: ~79 Using API test kits nitrates: 0 Nitrites: ~0 Ammo: ~0 Ph: ~8.0 I have around 40lbs of live rock Using a fluval 205, and aqueon 40g HOB filters. Caribsea white...

Theyre in a white tube, and have little feathers that come out of the end and usually suck back in if I hit them with my led flashlight. Theyre whiteish-clear with a reddish dot on the tip of each "feather"

So, my tank has been running for 2 almost 3 months now. The first rock I got was covered in a good but of coraline, a ton of aptasia, a few feather dusters here and there, and some other worms and bugs. I got the rock a day after I got my aquarium set up and filled. Since then, I've gotten rid...

I think it's just the luck..or unluck..of the draw on whether or not they munch on zoas, i've read that they do and they don't. I had one, but the last few days he's been missing :(

So i've read a few threads about ordering fish online, but what about coral? would they be safer to order? and also, has anyone heard of or done business with this site? Saltwater aquariums, supplies, servicing, reef fish and corals - Barrier Reef Aquariums They have some really cool zoas that...

Yep, I'd rather spend more on a skimmer and other accessories, than have my fish/coral die, have to buy multiple ones, etc.

I'm going to be going with the reefbrite led's, and probably a seaclone i believe it was, skimmer. not sure atm, still looking for those.

lol yea, I'm really wanting to get my coral started, but I need to get lighting, and a powerheard and skimmer, which I guess is good that way my tank can mature some more in the process

That's good to hear, if you're lookin for a different anemone, I was told carpet anemones are good hosts. I myself am gonna try to get my clowns to host in my zoas once I get em.

nice! I'm hopin to start gettin into coral after i get my new lights in the next few weeks. I'm lookin for radioactive dragon eyes, some of the pink zoas, and probably eagle eye or starfire zoas. I'm gonna try to make a cool colony. (sorry to trail off XD) good luck with your corals!

i would take it back and get a different kind of anemone, as the condys from my experience and what ive read, will actually eat the clownfish. also i said basically the same in my thread, didnt know if you realized it was the same person, so just stating

i believe theres a few threads on here about it, but you can google somethin like anemone ate my clownfish, etc. and probably find them, im in class or i would find some links. also, im thinking they are male and femle, as since the moment i added the new(bigger) clown, they havent fought at...

i think i read somewhere that a clown had hosted a colony of zoas, but i cant remember for sure.. as for the Nem eating my clown, yea it was asuprise but after it happened, i did some searching and it turns out its actually not uncommon for a condylactus to eat a clownfish

is that pink tipped nem by chance a pink tipped condylactus? or are they two different species?

Thanks for the replies! Jabibi: Do you happen to remember how big they were? mine are currently about...2 inches long and 1 inch tall, and the other is about 1" long and 1/2" tall. And what do you think about zoanthids? will they host them?

bump

You can try melting some brine shrimp into a little saltwater, and soak some garlic with it..not sure if minced, crushed, etc...maybe someone will chime in with that info

Ok, so I got a false percula clown a few weeks back, and then a true percula that was a bit smaller than it. They seemed to get along ok, but they never slept in the same spot, and occasionally swam together. One day I noticed that my bigger percula was missing. I had bought a condy anemone a...

Yea, good thing is it's definitely not aiptasia.

will do. instead ofgetting coral, i decided to wait until my tac return so that i can get everything i need. i got a couple peppermint shrimp to rid my tank of the aiptasia infestation until then

it would also depend on the tank length, width and depth, if yoh have a more compact light fixture, the light will be more condensed and therefore more effective, all be it a smaller area. and depth as well, as a shallow tank will have better light penetration. my tank is only a 36g, roughly...

I will be running either reef brite LEDs, or double bright, I questioned my supplier intensely over the subject, and she seemed to know a good deal about it. From what I gathered, you can use them for almost all coral, and theyre very cost affective.

just heard that some people dont always do it right or cheap out to make more money by not having to fo as much

ahhhh, ok. ill be sure to check at my lfs today ansee if they have one

tds? what does that stand for?
