I installed an Aquafx Economy ro/di unit. I started it up, and it is leaking!!! It appears to be coming from the quick connect where the waste water line is attached. I don't know if this explanation makes sense, but I hope! I really need help with this. I'm so frustrated! Anyone had this...

oh great! Thanks.

Mistersprinkles, I have a clown (my 2nd one died), a royal gramma, a coral beauty angelfish, lawnmower blenney, a shrimp, a couple different zoanthids, and a polyp (of which i can't remember the name right now.) So, what exactly do you mean i have to remineralize? From what i understand, i...

Hello. I'm ready to invest in a Ro/Di system, but I have a limited budget. I got this system AFX-BUD-RODI100 Premium Aquatics - AFX-BUD-RODI100 Aquarium Supplies for a black friday deal. I know it isn't the best, but will it do? I've done some reading, but I'm still a bit confused. It looks...

I have t5 bulbs that are on roughly 10 hours for the actinic and 8 hours for the other two. I feed my fish daily with flakes, sometimes with frozen food. I have a hippo tang, 2 clowns, 3 chromis, a royal gramma, 2 emerald crabs, a cleaner shrimp and the clean up crew. I know my husband tends to...

So, I have a 75 gal tank that has been over run by algae. Picture attached. Can you help me identify it and suggest a way to treat it??? Its driving me crazy! Had water parameters checked a my lfs and it was within normal ranges. We change water once a week. Just can't get rid of it. TIA

No one with advice?

I need advice about my LTA (I'm due to have a baby any day now and don't want to come home to a tank full of dead livestock!) I have a 75 gallon tank. My tank lighting is: four t5 bulbs, 50% actinic and 50% white, 54w bulbs. Parameters using test strips: Ammonia 0, Nitrate 0, Nitrite 0, total...

Hello. I have a 75 gal tank that has been set up since February. So far, things have been going well. All levels are within normal ranges. Weekly water changes. I noticed yesterday that my royal gramma, which i've had for a couple months maybe, was hiding more than usual. I thought maybe she had...

Hello. Two days ago, we purchased a hippo tang and a gramma fish. We currently stock 2 clowns, 3 chromis, a cleaner shrimp, snails, crabs, coral, and a Long Tentacle anemone. This morning, the hippo tang was lying on the floor of the tank, with a few ich spots. He has since started swimming...

75 gal, about 4 ft long and about 2 or 2 1/2 ft deep. And, the LTA doesn't seem to be traveling to find higher ground at all. I'm thinking, I accidentally let the water get too low. When i realized it, obviously I added more. But, maybe the shift was a bit much for it.

Sorry, there are 4 bulbs total.

Hello. We recently purchased a purple LTA, about 3 weeks ago. For the first couple weeks, it seemed to do well. It buried its foot in the crevice of a rock, and it ate well. A couple days ago, I came home to find it out of the rock and sideways, like it had been knocked over by the current. It...

What do you all think about wave makers? I have a 75 gallon saltwater tank.

Hey All. I've finally got my 75gal aquarium set up and I'm ready to fill it. I have one problem though. The output from the built-in overflow is leaking (tube on the left.) We made a new gasket and my husband tightened it best he could, but it still has a slow leak. Any suggestions? Could we use...

Lol. YES, completely new. So, after doing more reading, I've figured out what I was talking about was my return pump and the pump for the protein skimmer. I've decided on a new return pump, but still not sure what to do about the protein skimmer pump. There are so many things to know, huh? Any...

that as 0.8amp not 8amps

I'm pretty confused on what my tank needs. I have a 75 gallon tank we received from a neighbor. The sump and water return pump are both fried so I'm looking for replacements, but I have no idea where to start. The current sump is Model 5 Utility Pump (115volt AC/60Hz/45watts/8amps. The return...

I recently acquired a 75gallon tank. The current cover is wood on 4 sides and the top with a few opening slats on top. It has 4 T12 bulbs mounted, with a fan mounted to the back of the cover. I was considering upgrading to T5s, but need suggestions on how to set the lighting up. There aren't...
