yes things are BAD. nitrates are HIGH. shoulkdi do a water change?

now the mandarin and one of the nemos are dead. everyone else ius okay (minus microfauna fa shooo) but the question is what do i do now? and the female of the pair of nemos died, should i get a new nemo? when? THANKS IN ADVANCE! RIP mandarin and nemo both were about 2 years old and beautiful and...

yes, all is well......and to think i stressed myself out for a month or so before the move. im such a worried-wort.

no losses. pics coming someday. broke up with my wifey...life goes on. not much else is new over here... small male percula got sucked up into diatom filter but i recovered him quickly and hes healing his dorsal fin. clams look great. everyone is good.... :D:D:D adam

try running a fan for the lights (and over the water). thats what ive seen many folks do in the summer. put it on a timer so it runs for daylight hours plus an hour after daylight to cool off. i am fortunate enough to live in a very cool northpacific coastal area, but i can get away with...

i am running 2x100w ebo jagers in a 42-net-gallon system and that works fine so i dont think its too much. i would just get a new heater, and an ebo at that. also, average room temp in my house is around 60 or so, not 70. HTH

yeah that would suck. but my poor sandbed :(

what about the sandbed. it is a truvue should i remove the sand before moving it? probably huh?

best of luck

i believe you do need a sandbed for certain specimens. if you dont plan on keeping those specimens, then no sandebed is required. sandbeds are great places for microfauna to thrive. removing that aspect of the environment will without doubt decrease the biodiversity in your system. i would stick...

i was going to leave the sandbed and move the tank ontot a thick piece of plywoowd for support to move it. i realize it will be heavy, but wont it be worth it if it works because the sandbed will have little to no disturbance. i guess i could remove the sand into buckets but i dont want to if...

is it a striking color? check out my brain in my memeber gallery...its neon green and orange.

i think it will do great under 2x36w pc 50/50 in the sandbed. my brain is hardy - its overcome several BAD galaxea attacks.

my brain is flourishing under 2x55w pc (actinic/10000k) and one 20w NO fluoro. i think it will do great. i think brains like it in the sandbed, thats where mine is. its about 15" from the lights. how much is it?i got mine for $18.99 in sf. HTH

ill be moving my tank in the next two weeks. is there anything in particular i should do other than plan? reduce feedings? i have a bunch of specimens in there: two osceralis clowns one blue mandarin three pajama cardinals many zoos acanthastrea sp. galaxea sp. many acropora spp. many montipora...

well my girlfriend finally emailed me the pics she took earlier in april of my tank. heres the pic i have been promising for months... i know its not even that good a pic (no close up of clams, or new clam at all) but more to come someday. enjoy

agreed on the mysis shrimp. i also feed my brain frozen formula two cut up real small (about pencil eraser size).

give it time and space. dont move it around. i just put my cutting into the tank and let it float around until it found a place in the sandbed. it attatched to some gravel in the sandbed over the course of a week or two. i then set the xenia and gravel on to a rock in a place with medium flow...
