Just wanted to show off my tank. I just added a new bicolor frogspawn. My brain coral is about 5"-6". Have a huge colony of green zoa polyps. With the cup I have some green striped mushrooms waiting to attach to some rubble.

im looking at getting one of these (Current USA Orbit Marine LED Aquarium Light) to keep zoas and LPS. the only real issue that i have right now is the over all 24w. i've seen other lights that have like 120w. Reason i ask i see reviews on marineland and amazon saying their corals love it, but...

I'm a little uneasy ordering from online. Mainly due to me living in TX. everything I order will come from either coast. Right now I'm looking at getting a CUC from reefs2go. Has anyone had experience with them? How did your livestock arrive? Thanks for the help.

Im looking at getting a reactor to lower or completely get rid of my phosphates. My phosphates sit around 0.25ppm for the most part. I have R/O unit with filters and membranes changed in december 2013. My light cycle is 6hrs and i still get bad hair algae outbreak every few months. I do 10gal WC...

Talking about CUC, shrimps and feather dusters.

I'm looking to buy or trade. I have a 65g with stand and glass lids to trade for. I also have a 48" FOUR bulb t5oh to go with it for a little extra. I'm in the DFW area of TX.

I can't get rid of this hair algae. I have 30 red legs and my light cycle is down to 6 hrs a day. My phosphate is 0.25 ppm. What do I do?

Hey all, I'm not new to saltwater, just new to corals. I'm need help or ideas of what to get. I have my reef in a 38hex with a 15gal sump, a coralife protein Skimmer that's rated for 65gal. I have 20lbs of rock in the sump and somewhere around 45-55lbs of LR in the DT. I have tons of flow...

My polyps are coming back nicely in their new home, but I got some new stuff growing next to them. There are some tube looking things and some wavy feathery type things. Any ideas?

Im, getting out of the military and i'm moving back home to TX from VA. It's about a 1800 mile drive, with an hotel in between here and there. My plan is to keep enough water in the tank to keep the sand wet. Then for the LR I plan on getting a 45gal Rubbermaid container and keeping the rock...

I've had my new yellow watchman now for a week and he won't eat. I've tried mysis, brine, squid and one other frozen one I can't think off. All said food has been prepared with garlic guard and without. After putting food in the tank he goes into hiding. I have an emarled crab, a fire shrimp...

I plan on getting the biocube skimmer for my 26g nano. My question is, how often does the wooden air stone need to be replaced. Stay Salty,

In my 26g I'm using a DSB as my main source of filtration, instead of a large amout of LR. Now on my stocking I plan on having a Yellow Watchman and a Green Clown Goby. Now I know that gobies tend to disturb the sand bed. My question is, will these two little guys disturb the DSB to much that...

Well after adding my new quad t5 unit my polyps started growing. Well now I think its aiptasia. The disc is a dark green which I've never seen on aiptasia. so any help would be great. Stay Salty

So I just finished setting my my 26g bowfront. I used 40lbs of live sand that gave me a nice 4" DSB. I'm using the dsb in place of a large amount LR. I did do 10lbs of LR just so there is some sort of "something" in the tank. Have my heater , power head and my light. Thinking alright almost...

Now that I got my 65g running itself (apart from PWC and top offs), I'm wanting a nano with a pair of clowns and maybe an anemone. I was thinking about the Biocube 8 with the biocube skimmer, and was wondering if this would be good for that. Or would the JBJ 12g be better. My LFS has a Hagen...

OK I have a 36" marineland double bright led system on my 65g tank. They issue I'm having is....its not doing anything but making it pretty. My coralline algae isn't growing and the stuff in did have is fading. My calcium is in between 400-430 ish. Ammonia is 0, nitrates stay around 5 or less...

Over the last few days a piece of my LR has some nice polyp growth on it. I don't know what kind it is. I do know its not aiptasia, as I've dealt with it in the pass. here is a pic.

Just got a small copperband butterfly for my 65gal to help with my aiptasia. I know that they like to graze on the LR for food, but has anyone had luck with frozen foods or flakes with this beautiful fish?

I just got done sttting my my fuge under my 65gal. The fuge/sump is a 15gal tank. There is a Coralife 65 skimmer in there (really light bio load 3 fish) and a 300w heater that keeps my tank at a nice 79°. Anyways my problem Im having is my DSB is looking kind of crazy. Whats this red stuff. The...

I woke up this morning to find something new on my LR. It is moving, well moving very slow. The fish seem to enjoy it, as they keep nipping at it. It is just some crazy, clear bubble looking thing. Here is a pic. Hope this helps Thanks,

I got a new piece of LR at my LFS and, well.... I think I have some aiptasia. My setup is FOWLR, so the part about damaging corals im not really worried. I just hope it does not do any damage to my tank. Here are some pics. This is the largest piece I have. I do have about 4-5 more smaller...

I am planing on building my own sump. It will be a 10gal tank (thats all my foot print can do). The items will be: CPR CS50 Overflow Box Hydor SELTZ L30 Pump 320 gph Coralife Super Skimmer 65 My max head doesn't exceed the 75" on the pump. I think it's somewhere around 55" This setup will be...

OK I would like to go from an old 38gal hex tank to my 36gal bowfront tank. The 38gal hex is already set up with 7-8lbs of LR and has 40lbs of aragonite. I was wondering what i need to do to change it over. the bowfront has nothing in it. Any info would be great. Thanks,

I was looking at getting Raids Pro Filter and was wondering what the community thought of it. I would be taking out the bio-balls and would be using LR rubble. I was thinking of getting a sump, but unfortunately i don't have the footprint for a sump. Also I don't have the capability to pipe one...
