I have been wanting to grow some coraline algea and I just can't seem to be able to like most people do. I have a 10g and a 29g reef tanks on PC lighting. I was told to get some purple up, but I was wondering if I would need to get some calcium and any other test kits to use that stuff without...

Thanks everybody. I think I know what to do.

I've had my setup running for a few months after my fish died that were in it. All the problems have been fixed and the corals and inverts are doing fine. I want to take it slow and was hoping to get your advice on the fish selection. I'm going to have to have a clown, but I was also thinking of...

I just realized that my stand doesn't have a place for the front of tank to rest on. The top was built out of angle iron. It didn't seem to be a problem for my 20L that I had on it. I'm going to put a 29G on it. Do you think I should put a piece of plywood over the top? I'm not sure if it will...

thanks for the advice.

I was wondering what I should get to feed my corals. I have soft corals only. I have Kent Marine Iodine, Coral-vite and Essential elements. What else should I feed them? Thanks for the help.

i talked to someone about my problem and they suggested that my PC lights are probably old. She said i should replace them about every 7 months or so. they've been running for a year now. could that be the culprite? my corals aren't looking so good either. i ordered another bulb. is that as...

i think i'm going to bring them to my lfs. they will give me some credit or something. thanks though

free to good home.

i use the water at walmart (.33 per gal), i think it's just RO not sure. i want to get one of the RO/DI filters from melev's website, are they good? but i need the money and don't know if i wouldbe able to set it up in an apartment. anyways i wasn't too worried, just trying to see if i did...

i changed tanks last weekend. but before i did that i started seeing the diatom algea show up in my established tank. this is why i'm stumped.

well the only thing that is new is the glass tank itself. i have the fish, inverts, corals and everything that a took out of the undrilled tank and put in the drilled tank. i figured it would be alright but i didn't want to take any chances. thanks for the quick reply

hi. i don't know if you remember my post about a week ago about my new setup, but i but seem to be having a brown algea problem. it is on the cc and rocks. i checked everything and everything is 0 (nitrate, nitrite, ammonia, phosphate), pH is 8.4, and my salinity is about 1.021 (probably going...

ok that's it... $15 for the whole lot. they are really healthy. i can ship them too. thanks for your time

bump.

well i'm not sure what kind i have. i have two. sometimes they look a like and others they don't. when fully expanded, i'd say they are a little bigger than a quarter. right now one is a pale red color with no bumps, and it's not expanded. the other looks like it has lines of bumps running down...

i don't feed them anything, but i do use coral vite and iodine. it's a 10 gal tank and they are attached to the rock on the bottom. and my wattage is 40 altogether, so 4 wpg. what do i feed them?how? thanks for your help

thanks man, i appreciate it. i have another question though. i was told by a lfs to put lr to about an inch from the surface, but i see most people don't. should i stack it that high? thanks. and civic my water line is affected by the overflow chamer. the problem is the tank isn't even, it leans...

this is probably a dumb question... where would i put the pumps? on the side or back? i don't know what would be better. i wouldn't mind beening able to hide them. thank you

i never had mushrooms before so i don't know how fast they grow. i was given one along with a button polyp (which has "exploded from one to more than i can count) back in febuary or something. the mushroom hasn't done anything except attach itself to a lava rock. is it the lava rock? the lava...

i have some freshwater fish for sale. i live in tyler, but travel through dfw area often. i have: 1 angelfish (black with a few little yellowish batches, male i think) $5? 3 black skirt tetras $2? 1 cory $2? 1 red tailed shark $2? 2 clown loaches $7? 2 otocinclus catfish $4?

it will have probably have a little over 110 gph once i get the stand built for the sump. as you can see from the pics, it is in the upper corner and blowing into the front glass. i will get the spliter so the flow will flow the length of the tank(hopefully). i was thinking of getting a canister...

ok, first off, from what i've seen, my tank doesn't look as good as basically everyone elses. i don't know how you guys do it. it's not completely finished, i'm gonna get sand and probably make my own rock soon. the sump isn't fished, either. well let me tell you my story about how i got to this...
