Hello, I'll be moving in about a month and a half, and I wanted to take this opportunity to upgrade to a tank that has been sitting empty in my current place. The tank is 72in X 24in X 24in (Bow front). the stand is 88in x 25in x 41in. So, I would say a little under 180 US gal. I will be...

thank you for the reply. I have not changed the bulbs in about 7 months. However, they seem to be working for the other corals -though I know the hammer requires more light than the other ones. How often should you change them?

Yes, that's the one. However, I used to have 2 of the 1200 and one 600 in the tank. It seemed that everyone including the fish hated it because it was too much. Then I gradually removed them until the corals and fish seemed to like it better. They are/were set up as circulation pumps. The...

Thanks for all the replies, I will try moving it up. However, I had it in the sand bed because that's the place with the least water flow. From my understanding they don't like strong flow, correct? I mean I only have the return point and a Marineland 1200 power head generating water movement

Hello! I currently have a 55gal tank that's been running for more than a year. However, I am moving to a different state and upgrading the tank at the same time. I have a approx 180 gal tank. (24x24x72) bow front acrylic aquarium. I have several questions! 1) before making the move, I want to...

Hello guys, I need help with a hammer coral I have. Let me start with the basics. It is a 55Gal tank that has been running for a little over a year. The current livestock is two green chromis, one six line wrasse, a chalk bass, a orange skink clown, diamond goby and two cleaner shrimp. I also...

They were usually on for 6 hours, but now, I have gradually decreased the 10,000K lights to only 3 to deal with the cyano. How long should lights be on for? I am currently finishing the third day of the lights out. I will have to see how the aquarium looks tomorrow.

I was trying or avoiding adding chemicals, but I will if I have to, though I wanted to make sure i tried everything before. I will cut down on feeding, and yes, every time I do a water change, I syphon as much as i can out of the tank. In occasions I have taken the top rocks out and scrubbed...

I have had fish tanks (freshwater for about 2 years now), however, 6..maybe 7 months ago I started with a saltwater tank. It is a 55 gallon tank, with roughly 50 lbs of live rock. The current stocking of the tank is three green chromis, a six line wrasse, a chalk bass, an orange skunk clown, a...

Thanks! I will try to do that! does it matter what the temperature is? is it better to keep it warm? or should i drop it back to 78?

Thank you so much for the advice. Unfortunately the swordtail with the fin rot died 2 days ago :( but since then I have stopped all medications in the tank, and did a water change. Yesterday I actually tested the water myself and these were the readings that I got: Ph 7.5, Ammonia around 0.15...

Hello everyone. I am new to the whole fish world. I have a planted 55G tank with a rainbow shark, 5 tiger barbs, some danios, 2 gouramies, 4 swordtails. About 2 weeks ago I noticed two of the fish had ich. I treated them with ich attack, and its gone away. However, now I noticed that the female...
