    CUC recommendations please

    My very first saltwater tank is nearing the completion of it's"cycle". I could use some recommendations of a clean up crew (type of animal and quantity). I am currently not considering any corals but it is not out of the question later on down the road. A few details about the tank: Bowfront...

    Plant ID please

    Picked up a free 28 gallon bow front today. Unfortunately the fish and plants were part of the package. :( Was a snail infested mess so the plants got a dip and are in QT with the fish at this time. Anyway, here are the pics. Four pics of two plants, one in water one out...

    Angry Goldfish

    Mordecai and Rigby are very angry with me. :( After recovering from the stress of moving their tank they decided to eat some of my plants. The little buggers.

    A moment of silence please...

    The dollar per gallon sale ends today. Get to PetCo now if you need one. Went to go try and pick up a 20 long today and they said their whole last shipment came in shattered and they had none left. :(

    40b display w/ 40b sump/refugium

    Will this work? Does the horizontal length of the return pipe count when calculating the return pump head height? Does the horizontal length of the overflow pipe slow the flow? From the water level in the display to the water level in the sump I'm looking at ~18 inches. Not sure about the...

    New 40b

    Just had to share... Pick up the last 40b at my Petco today! Couldn't resist the dollar per gallon sale. ;) It will stay empty for a month or so then be used as a holding tank while I move my other three tanks to my new house in August. After that it will be cleaned again and built into a...

    Small refugium question

    Would a small refugium (~6x4x12) with 230gph flow really be useful? I ask because I am considering a 20 long AIO. This AIO would have this small refugium and a mj900 for return. To be effective does the refugium not need a lower flow? I have read that a refugium should have about 10-20x volume...

    Went to Sea World today!

    They have a new aquarium walkthrough called the Stingray Aquarium. If you go you must see it. I was just itching to ask for some of their live rock, it was just amazing! Here is a pic of a couple of Sea Horses they had in one tank...

    Lighting help needed please

    In a 40 breeder, what lighting would I need to successfully keep Crocea Clam and Anemone? Also, same question but change the tank to a 30 breeder (shallower by four inches compared to a 40b).

    New to SW, a little help

    Have had FW for years but am new to salt. Was at the LFS the other day and my son really likes the colorful SW fish. My wife likes the pretty corals and such. Well, I made the "mistake" of saying that when we move to the new house I would consider converting my 40b to salt, my son got very...

    10g Tank - Grass Shrimp

    Toothless the BGK loves to snack on grass shrimp. I have a ten gallon setup sitting around doing nothing. Instead of buying the shrimp every couple of weeks (at a buck a dozen) I thought, why not put that 10g to use and stock it up to breed them myself as half the ones I bring home are always...

    My Black Moor Swims Like Ender Wiggin

    "The enemies gate is down!" He doesn't float oddly or have a swim bladder issue. But he swims like Ender Wiggin fights battles, or for you non- Orson Card fans, he swims like a fighter pilot. Upside-down, straight up and down, barrel rolls, you name it. He seems to enjoy taking full advantage...

    How would you sort these fish in these tanks?

    How would you sort these fish in these tanks? I ask because I will be moving hopefully soon (just put a contract bid on a house today) and would like to reorganize the stock a bit more appropriately. The tanks: 37g, SunSun 303B, planted, rocks, caves. 75g, SunSun 304B, planted, driftwood...

    Banana plant (Nymphoides aquatica)

    Came back from vacation to find I have finally successfully propagated a Banana plant! It has been almost two months since I buried the leaf in the substrate but I come back to see new leaves and a large root forming. I have second one that I buried at the same time, but it is not doing as well...

    Just got home. Hooray!

    I got home from Virginia about 30 minutes ago. Cannot do a fish count yet as all the lights are off. Boy, I hope that goes well. Found a few nice river rocks to add to the tanks but did not find any good driftwood. That is a disappointment as I was hoping to come back with a few pieces. Next...

    Uhg... Help please. White spot on GBR

    This GBR has a big white spot on her nose. Eating and acting normally, currently. Problem, I am leave for Virginia in the morning (be gone for a week) and I don't know if I should keep her in her tank or move her out to a ten gallon QT for the week and treat with salt and maybe an anti-fungal...

    Plant ID please

    Purchased both of these Cryptocoryne the other day. Both said Cryptocoryne "Asia". They look different to me. Can anybody tell my what type they are and how big should I expect them to get?

    Suggestions for lowering temp?

    75 gallon tank. Canister filter. Lighting is a single 32 watt t8. Heater set at 78f. Room temp at 74f. Yesterday the tank's temp climbed to 81f. By the late evening I got it back down to 79f with a few small water changes. Today it has risen back to 80f. I know this temp is tolerable by my fish...

    Best time to plant?

    What's the best time to plant? At 'lights on' so the plant has all day to "work" or at 'lights off' so the plant has all night to "rest". Or does it even matter?
