    No TDS meter. Maybe it was the acclimation process. Bummer

    Intermittent shrimp deaths

    Will my rodi soften the water of the tap? I have been using it lately. Also, there is so much algae in the tank, is this just from my powerful light?

    Intermittent shrimp deaths

    I began with 6 blue dream shrimp and they have since dwindled down to one surviving shrimp. Water quality is good with the normal parameters at 0. My water is pretty hard and was wondering if this is the cause of the deaths. My light is very powerful for the 10 gallon and has spurred a lot of...

    Major string algae problem

    My recently setup shrimp tank has a major algae problem. It is a 10 g and was cycled with filter media from mature tank. No ferts have been added to tank and water changes are regular. There are two types of algae, a green bushy one and a brown stringy one. The green algae, as seen in picture...

    Moss growth or algae?

    How did you end up removing all the algae and preventing it from returning?

    Moss growth or algae?

    New shrimp tank is being setup with tawian moss as a plant I have. Filter media from another tank was added. Light is a 3w led with 10 LEDs. No ferts or tabs have been added and moss is very different from pictures online. Moss is very bushy and I have tied it down twice yet it is still insane...

    Plastic tub for hospital tank

    I've decided to take action against the dreaded marine ich. Yesterday my 3 blue reef chromis showed plenty of white spots which I presume to be ich. The hippo tang that my neighbor donated is the known cause and has had signs of it on and off. I ordered a sponge filter to use as biological...

    Plants surviving but not thriving

    I put root tabs under crypts which are doing very well. Should I put tabs under every plant in the 6" circle it recommends?

    Plants surviving but not thriving

    My tank has been setup for around 8 months and grew out really well at first but lately I have seen some deficiencies in some of the plants and am wondering what is going on. Lighting is the same as when first setup and is a dual t8 run 7 hours daily. Filtration is a Ac30 HOB with sponges as...

    Possible Aggression?

    If any aggression shows he will surely go. I just can't imagine it though as he's such a small little guy. No aggression so far though.

    Possible Aggression?

    Im thinking of my next fish for my 90 gallon tank, currently stocked with two snowflake clowns and a strawberry basslet. The prospects are a yellow coris wrasse and/or a trio of some sort of anthias (most likely both down the road). The problem is that im under the impression that the strawberry...
