We are getting rid of our 60 gallon tank, my husband put a post on the classified area here http://www.aquariumadvice.com/viewtopic.php?t=89869 Hate to part with it but need to get out of the hobby. Thanks :)

We're selling our salt water fish tank set up. Here is what it is: 60gal acrylic tank 18gal fuge/sump Aqua Logic Deltastar 1/5hp chiller w/ controller APC backup-UPS XS 1200 2 Maxi-jet 600 powerheads Magdrive 7 pump Quiet One 1200 pump approx. 40 pounds of live rock approx. 80 lbs of live sand...

Unfortuantely I haven't been on here for a while, our tank is thriving but has been through tough spots. Have had a time where we thought we were going to have to frag our leather, but it ended up healing itself with attention from us and Lugols Solution. We still have our major problem...

My husband went to Petown yesterday and found out that Petown will no longer be around. For the entire month of July they will be having a Going out of business sale and they will be having 10-40% off everything in the store. Just thought I'd FYI anyone living in Orange County or even if ya...

It's just getting way too big! Infact it's curlling under and pressing up against the acrylic! Well it survived having a hole in the middle which is now healing, but now the base of it has a huge hole where it looks like it is being eaten by something, did see a brittle worm down there but not...

Well it's been a horrible month, we had bought a birds nest about a month ago everything was going great, then our bubble started to go terribly wrong as if someone was pulling it off, it got so bad we had to dispose of it, then a brown fungus attacked our Xenia and also our Montipora sps which...

I'm sure I know the answer, but I'm posting it anyway, the last couple days this has gotten worse as you can see, if it is dying then it's strange because if something swims by it it will retract up, still have some of the bubble things but it looks like it's guts are exploding out. I don't...

Attached is a pic of our leather, it's developed a hole in the middle of it, I'm hoping it's not serious, hoping someone can tell me either to not worry about it, or what to do, hate to lose it, it's kind of the trademark of our tank. Thanks, Kaurene

Our bubble has been doing this for the last couple days, although if something gets near it, it will pull in, curious if it was expanding? I know our hammer did this and it's gotten bigger. Short of an ever growing population of apasitas we haven't had any problems in this tank. Look forward...

Well after losing our firefish over a month ago and our scooter we decided it was time to add since all we had in our 60 was a pair of mated percula clowns and a brown cheek blenny who stays in his hole all the time. So we decided to get a 6 line wrasse and found a healthy one (although he's...

Anyone want an Aqua Medic Titan 150 chiller for free? The only thing you pay for is shipping! Let us know, John & Kaurene

Our scooter blenny has one cloudy eye, we lost our fire fish or rather can't find him anymore and it also had a cloudy eye but figured it was from a battle with a brittle worm (we have a lot of them) Has anyone ever used Melafix it says it's reef safe but our corals are doing so well and there...

I'm trying to talk my husband into getting a bigger aquarium, we have an odd corner in our living room and as you can tell by the pic, our corals are outgrowing our 60 gallon, I can't bring myself to frag the Leather and the bubble is getting just as big. Now my question, does anyone know of...

HI everyone, The time has come that we're going to have to frag our beautiful leather. It has grown too much & is sticking out of the water in a couple of places. The question is, how can we go about fragging a few pieces off it to preserve the leather? How big can we make the frag pieces so...

Was apastia hunting this morning and came across this, the little clown never strays from it, can anyone tell me what it is? Thanks!

Anyone see the footage this morning on Good Morning America? Don't understand why they didn't show the trainer calming him down like they do on the web. Here's the footage online http://www.wftv.com/newsofthestrange/3581469/detail.html

Got a pair of these from Indo Pacific Farms, they are supposed to be good producers, although it's mate seems to stay in the rocks. According to their site they eat their tang algae but we are finding that they also eat that dreaded red stuff on the sand. Reef safe hasn't touched any of our...

Anyone in the So. Calif. area needed a chiller? Aqua Medic Titan 150 Chiller for sale! $150 (including shipping) Like new. Only had it for 2 months. We bought a new/larger chiller & need to sell this one. Here's a link to Marine Depot for detailed info/specs...

Here's our 60 gallon reef, it's been up since November of 2003 but was merged from 2 other tanks that had been up longer. As you can see the leather dominates as always and our pipe organ is coming back which I am so excited about! This tank is without a skimmer and is doing really well all...

below is a rough drawing on an idea to set up a pump & chiller. Can/should it be done this way? All thoughts/suggestions are welcome

Just installed a Delta Star 2 inline chiller. Also have a Mag 7 pump for water flow. The problem we're having is that when the pump is turned on, we're getting bubbles going back into the tank. See the diagram below for how it's piped. The height the pump is pumping up is 4ft. Is the Mag 7...

Anyone know what this is, just noticed it today while cleaning the glass. They appear to be clear tenacles with little white balls on top. They seem to just stay in shaded areas we have some more deeper in the rock cave areas. The solid clear thing is a sponge, I know that much. Thanks for...

I've got sort of a weird question. Is it a good sign that the copepods and worms in the fuge keep eating all of our Macro algae that we put in there? We have bought 2 orders of the special from Indo-Pacific Farms within the last year and this last time all the yellow and green macro algae has...

It's already starting to get warm in Southern California. We're probably going to get the Titan 150 chiller to help control the temp on our 60g tank w/ 18g sump. The question becomes, should we pipe the chiller through the sump (in & out of the sump) or pipe it to the tank directly? Any...
