I had a male squareback in my 60 gal. He was the last one in and he clearly was the most dominant one. He usually floated around the center of the tank and would pick on my midas blenny. The blenny usually hid in the rocks and I had fish him out of the overflow a couple of times. One morning...

the acro is near the top and about 2 feet away from the bubble coral. I was on a trip when the foxface died, so I don't know the exact day it died. It could have been 1-5 days. When I checked, there was no amonia, nitrate, or phos spike. I have gfo, skimmer, and chaeto in my sump.

60gals (48" long) with a 20gal sump.

The flesh on my candy cane coral is deteriorating. I started with 2 heads, and within 2 years it had a total about 16 heads. Now the green flesh is melting away. Also, my bubble corals started deteriorating around the same time. This all started about over a month ago when I presumed my...

You might want to add more LR. I don't think you have enough.

do you have enough flow going through the bag?

Yes. Will do fine.

The saltwater that I've seen at LA petcos is the rebranded Catalina saltwater. They pump if off the coast and process it. For 5 gallons it was about $11. At lfs, they usually sell the same water for $4-5 for 5 gallons. The water ok. But it doesn't have high levels of calcium.

asides from the protein skimmer, i also have: 1 filter sock that I usually change once a week, 1gfo reactor 1 bag of chemipure elite and whole lot of chaeto algae I usually do 20gal water changes weekly. but I think I frequently overfeed them b/c my kids bring their friends over. my...

1 tomini tang 1 anthias 2 clowns 1 foxface 1 pygmy cherub angel 1 6-line wrasse 1 christmas wrasse

For a 90gal, I would go with: 1 male squareback anthias (colorful, not shy, and swims around) 2 clowns 1 tomini tang (colorful, eats algae and swims around a lot) 1 one spotted foxface (colorful, eats algae, swins around a lot) 1 leopard wrasse 1 flame hawkfish (quirky characteristics) 1 midas...

I have a 60g tank w/ a 20gal sump. I think I have a somewhat large bioload. I'm currently using a Bubble Magus 3.5+ which is rated for up to 80gal. How do I know if I need a larger protein skimmer? Overall, I'm satisfied with the Bubble Magus. Are there any signs I should be looking for?

Will the peroxide trick work on byprosis as well?

One would probably be enough. I put a wp40 in my 60 and it's on the lowest power level.

jbj unibody comes with a gooseneck that will fit rimless and most rimmed tanks. kissil + their gooseneck accessory.

would need to know the color temp of the lights. 6500K is for freshwater plants 10000K-20000K is for coral

for question #1, are you saying "no" i do not need to do any supplemental feeding in addition to the algae or "no" the algae is not enough food for the copepods?

If I add copepods to my refugium/sump that has rocks and chaeto growing in it: 1. Do I have to feed them anything, or will the algae be enough food for them? 2. Will they increase my bioload for my tank? 3. Are there any cons of having copepods? 4. Will they increase my nitrate levels?

My 60gal with 20gal sump loses about 3/4 gal of water due to evaporation a day

I've noticed the same thing as well. I've had my Duncan for about a year now and never fed it until this past month. After I started feeding it, it wouldn't open up as much during the day. And I think it would open up more during the night.

Has anyone had a blue tang that hasn't had a bout of ick or hlle? I know that blue tangs are more easily susceptible to ick and hlle, but is it inevitable?

Maintaining correct temp and salinity is the most difficult thing about nano tanks

Looks like cyano

Pic of the algae?

Ecoxotic panorma pros. Don't get their stunners.
