Definitely agree with you on that!

Thanks! I will look into these!

Guess it would help to give some tank info...lol! I have a 90gal mixed reef. Approximately 100lb rock, 2in sand bed, 30gal sump w/filter sock. 6 fish, couplw inverts and a cuc.

So I think my skimmer is trying to die on me...or it just may be the impeller. It is a marineland 300. It came with the tank when I first got it 2 years ago. I know they are not the greatest, but it has served its purpose and got me started on my 90gal. I priced a new impeller which is $50. I...

Just wanted to update you guys. My beautiful nem has shown his face finally! He did not move outbof the crack, but is showing his tenticles, however it is only after the lights go out. I have fed him twice the past couple days now so hopefully he will adjust to my lights soon and come out so I...

He is a rose bubble tip, his color at the store was fine, then I put him in the tank and what I can see of him still looks pink. I cant get to him to feel him because he has wedged himself in that crack.

Thanks! I will try that with the food and see what happens. My PHs are covered but he has not been floating. Like I said, he found that crack in the rock and hasnt moved. Lol!

I have a 90 gal Reef with 20 gal sump. Marineland 300 protein skimmer, lighting is 8 54watt T5's. Tank has been up and running for over a year and half. I keep Softies, SPS, LPS and all is happy and healthy. Ph 8.1 Ammonia 0 Nitrite 0 Nitrate 5 this is where my tank stays and everyone has always...

This is so awesome!! And I loved how they explain stuff and what all corals need to survive! Especially since there are people who think you can just buy a tank, add salt to water, throw in some fish and...TaDa!! And the cone snail eating the goat fish...how wild is that!!

What kind of camera are you using?

Rdnelson, when is that frag swap and is it open to the public? I am in NC and have been looking for something like that to go to the just not alot around here.

I have my lights set up and have started moving some things into the tank. My watchman goby seems to like his new home!

From what I found on google, they may be the colonial hydroids, but if they are, my cuc has ate and exterminated them.

Juat a quick update. I added a cuc to the new tank, the one that had the feather duster looking things...well, whatever they were, my new hermits have seem to eat them, only a couple left...so I guess I will never know what they were...

Thank you. They do seeem to be hard tubes. When they are touched, the heads retreat in and leave the tube, and the tubes are hard, so theys why I didn't think they were aptasia. You can not tell it in the pic, but it looks like there ate 30 or more of these tubes. I have found some stuff on...

I have done some research and concluded that I do have a pseudocorynactis. Do I keep him or get rid of him? I've read mixed reviews. Some say get rid of and some say they are a good catch?? What do you think? And also what do you guys think abt the other critters I have growing? Aptasia or...

Well I thought I added the pics. Lol!

I tried for abt 10 min to get a good pic and that was the best I could get. It does not seem to be hurting anything, I have no clue how long it had been there so I guess it can stay. Lol! I have another critter that needs identification. These guys are growing on some rock in another tank of...

I was moving some rock around in my tank and found this guy... he appears to be an anemone. He has a pale pinkish base, with clearish/whitish tenticles, with little white dots on the tenticles. What is he? I have tried the chucks addiction hitchhicker id with no luck. Please help. If I don't get...

Well my light got here and I realized I ordered the wrong sunlight supply fixture. Marine depot was really nice abt it too, and let me ship it back and order another one, so I went with the one that BallinCrew recomended. It seems to be a way nicer light, coming with the lamps and having a built...

That is one thing I have had to learn, there are no such thing as cheep lights. The only ones I have found that are good priced are the aquatrader.com odyssea lights. I was going to get one of the metal halide systems but have read such bad and scary reviews abt them to the point I am scared to...

I'm no expert by no means and I had to ask some other people on this site before I purchased the light I got. What are you planning on doing with your tank? Will it be a reef or fowlr? If it is a reef tank, then I would say no. Its not enough light.

So excited!! I just ordered my lights! I went with the TEK 8 T5 unit! Now to get my bulbs ordered.

Thanks! That would be great! What brand of bulbs did you go with?

I found a light fixture I am considering buying. What do you guys think? It does not come with any bulbs, so what combination of bulbs should I get if I do get this fixture? Sunlight Supply Tek Light High Output Fluorescent Lighting Fixtures or I have been looking at this light, although I...
