Hi Autumn! I remember you! :-) **wave** Good start and very thorough! If it's temporary I wouldn't worry too much about the sand bed depth and volume. I tried the balck sand a long time ago and found it to be very abrasive with my magfloat among other things. looks awesomethough doesn't it...

I'd also caution against the damsels, they can be mean little guys and a small tank would let them abuse each other/anything else in the tank easily. I speak from experiecne with the mandarin, unless you have a boatload of pods, a mature refugium AND a way to sustain BOTH I would pass on it. I...

Hi there! Thanks for the response sniper! Not sure if you remember me, lol, it's been awhile but I've got a good handle on things "usually" aquaria related BUT I amy have found my culprit. I was messing with the radions over the nuvo and they seem to be reverting to 60% which is enough to bake...

Just some pics of the current state of fishland !!

Ok, so I have not been on here in forever, lol, like years forever but I'm in need of some help with one of the tanks. My 80g IM Nuvo is the culprit right now. It is pretty shallow for an 80g tank and I have 2 Radion g2's with lens I believe over it. Mounted with ecotech full arm mounts so...

Hey red, just wanted to let you know I'm still following you! Lol. So glad things are going well for you and the tanks! I don't care if people think clowns are just average fish, to me they still amaze me and make me smile, they can be so goofy sometimes. I have loads of updates to do, I am...

Very nice Red! Yeah, wrasses will eat you out of house and home in regards to pods. Lol. They like to pick. I have some that eat worms hehe. :) just keep offering him the brine and when you get a good feeding response try mixing in other frozen food. Sent from my SM-N910V using Aquarium...

Is the mysis big? I would try brine first, it's generally smaller. Sent from my SM-N910V using Aquarium Advice mobile app

What a great fish! I have been eyeing them for some time. Sorry I'm not around much but I do get on here and there. Hoping to post a BIG update on my thread soon. Hope everything is good with you Red. Sent from my SM-N910V using Aquarium Advice mobile app

I looked at that skimmer red, and to be honest it is just the bare minimum. You want at least 50% more than your tanks volume. preferably double. I understand you arent; going with a sump so your options will be limited but do a bit more research and see what you can come up with. If you need...

I ran across a white tail tang a few times online AND ONCE at my lfs. But it was $200 and i just cant justify spending that much in one shot. The fish was beautiful though, I went in specially to see him in person as it were. lol Hey red, I appreciate all your comments! ANd yes, that is a...

I would stay away from coral banded shrimp, they can get big and kinda mean, well, mean for a shrimp. lol I have a pistol shrimp, 2 peppermints and a fire shrimp in my 13.3 so yep, you can mix and match shrimp. i am hoping to find a good deal on a cleaner shrimp at some point. When you have a...

The yellow fish is a Benga Sunshine. One of my favorite cichlids. :-) I like the coris too, he was just peeking out to make sure the coast was clear lol

I must have over 500lbs of live rock now. I only purchased about 40lbs of "live" all the rest came from dry rock cycling into "live" rock. lol I got a good amount of my dry rock from reefcleaners.org and some from reef-rocks.net which was the cheapest at like 1.75 a lb

I can't decide, so here are a few. :-) LOL Forgive the crappy photos, I am not a very good photographer.

Hi Blitz! I am outside Orlando, about 20 minutes or so. :-) Nice to see a "local" chime in. Good luck with your tank, sounds pretty awesome.

I second that Koralia 240 that autumn mentioned above. For a reef, depending on what if any filter you are using you may actually need two, one for each side if you are keeping coral. :-) But yeah, figure about $20-25 for a powerhead. Don;t skimp out and get the uber cheap ones off ebay, I had...

Well Hello there! Welcome to the salty side. lol To be honest, a hex tank is a little challenging to work with due to the footprint it has, it's more tall than long. BUT it doesnt mean you can;t get some cool stuff in there. :-) A pair of clowns would be good, but not the ones that get really...

Sorry to hear about your troubles Sniper, I know with some dedication you will get things going smoothly again. I guess ro/di in the long run is the BEST thing you could do. :-) And yep, I have a towel hanging from EVERY tanks cabinet door, lol, I always have my hand in one or another for...

Heya guys!!! Sniper, what happened to your tanks? You had some awesome stuff going on last I remember...... ANd poppa, stalkers are always welcome. :-) At least until we "convert" you over to the salty side, stalking these posts will give you a jumpstart on the knowledge you'll need if you...

Thanks guys. I miss this site but real life just gets in the way alot and I dont get to log on often. :-( I'm hoping in the new year to be a bit more active here. So many new people! lol But I will always have my fishies, I don't see this obsession ending anytime soon. lol
