    SG and Quarantine?

    Hey all, a week and a half ago I got a pair of Banggai Cardinal from a store 2 hrs away. I drip acclimated them over the course of an hour, and they seemed fine, but wouldn't eat. All parameters were good, but they both died over the course of 5-6 days. I contacted the store and they said it...

    Help with Buenos Aires Tetra

    About a week ago I got 3 BAT's. Interestingly, the largest as of today, I noticed a jacked up dorsal and white discoloration behind. The other 2 are fine and seem to be chasing it. Any ideas if this is aggression based or other? Will check it again in the morning. Sent from my iPhone using...

    Getting closer!

    Hi all, So I am starting up a 75gal with custom stand. I've got my overflow and return drilled and installed and am ready to plumb. I have a 29 sump inside but it won't leave me any room so am going with a 20 long. I have a few more pieces to get and I wanted to get any insight as to my...

    I am about to drill my aquarium for a glass.holes 1500 overflow

    Hello all, so I am about to drill my aquarium for a glass.holes 1500 overflow. It's a 75 gal tank so I was thinking of running 300-350 gal an hour through my sump. My question is as it has 2 1.5" outlets, can I plumb them into a Y fitting to just have one pipe entering the sump? Or would this be...

    Curious what this is on my LR.

    Didn't exist, now exists. Any ideas? They're brittle (assuming some type of tube worm?) They're not in a functioning tank.

    Advice on Fantail

    So a week ago I moved "Goldy", my 4 year old's fantail from a 3.5 gal to a 20H. Everything seemed fine until she started sitting on the bottom. This morning she looked bad and I was paranoid about the possibility of a second cycle despite seeding the tank with filter media from another and...

    Dolphins getting high on puffer toxin.

    Not sure if this is appropriate, but it is really interesting. Makes you look at puffers in a new light! They even "pass the puffer". Dolphins get high on pufferfish toxin | IFLScience

    Overflow or drilled?

    Hello all, the reason for my question comes from the fact that I was thinking of draining my tank to drill it for an overflow (haven't cycled it yet). However, my LFS has an new eshopps overflow (assuming the 1000, has 2 siphons) that is missing the bulkheads for $29. Just wondering if you have...

    Purchasing an existing reef?

    Hello all, I am in the process of setting up a new SW tank (can see where I'm at here: http://www.aquariumadvice.com/forums/f59/outlaws-somewhat-roundabout-journey-316731.html). As I mention, I'm totally happy with the tank itself. Recently, an existing 75 gal reef tank has come up for sale...

    Outlaw's somewhat roundabout journey.

    Greetings all! I was asked to write an introduction to the community, so I figured I would tell the story of how I got here (careful what you ask for :). While I have had SW aquaria in the past (worked at an aquarium store in my teens), it appears that everything has completely changed and I...
