I have a 30 inch long 16 inch tall 30 gallon that I want to turn into a nano reef. I really want to get the best lighting possible and was wondering if one unit of the 160W or 360W would be sufficient enough to provide enough light for coral growth.

I looked at my aquarium today and saw one of my amano shrimps looked huge and was carrying around what seemed to be eggs (Picture attached in post below). Anyone have any insight? If they are eggs, anyone know how I could raise them so they don't become a free meal for my puffers haha

I currently have a 25 gallon aquarium with 9 celestial pearl danios and 2 dwarf puffers. I have heard of male cpds being relatively fin nippy toward each there but looking at my tank nearly half of them have torn tailfins, some to a relatively extreme degree. Despite this, all of them seem...

I keep my 1 male and 1 female pea puffer with otos and neons and they do perfectly fine with no aggression or nipped fins whatsoever (If anything adding the tetras neons reduced the scuffles between the two puffers for some reason), but I have a pretty heavily planted tank with lots of plants...

Would a coral dip help? The corals are attqched to the rocks and i dont want to kill them

This stuff is all over my rocks tht have corals, is there any way to remove it without killing them?

Can someone help identify this algae? It hitchhiked on one of my corals and is growing like crazy!

So I have had my 10 gallon FOWLR for over a year now and decided I want to give coral a try. As of right now, I bought Orbit LEDs, but I still have a ton of questions. I am Currently using Instant Ocean Salt but was wondering would I have to change my salt or add additives to support the...

Thanks for the input! My tank is established and is going for 2 years now, but it's only 10 gallons so it might not be able to support it.

So I bought a clown goby yesterday and it was a bit expensive, so the lfs store owner offered me something else included for that price. Since I don't have adequate coral lighting yet, he gave told me he would give me something that is guranteed to grow without light and gave me this purple...

Not for a 10 Gallon, a water change will do just fine

Good Luck! i started my 10 gallon FOWLR about a year ago and it's been amazing. I recommend you get a RODI unit eventually since it will give your tank excellent water parameters, but you can buy distilled water and use that too since the tank is small. Also, if you don't have a lid you'll need...

They really don't eat freeze dried food, get some frozen ones, mine loves them! Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

You can use a toothbrush to remove large chunks of hair algae but it will grow back until you fix the nutrient issue.

They won't eat flakes because they are carnivores, but they'll take easy to get frozen foods like blood worms. They will definitely eat small fish like neons and guppies (They have big mouths) so be careful! Also, dont feed them too much or your water quality will drop.

Favorite picture of my Azure Damselfish, The Real Swim Shady

Mines not picky at all, I usually just feed him frozen brine shrimp and he will eat a whole cube in one bite if I don't melt it. Sometimes I'll buy live ghost shrimp so I can see him hunt.

I've had mine for 6 years now and he is easily the hardiest fish I have. They are really cool but do grow!

My 10 gallon Aquarium Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I use distilled water in my 10 gallon and have little to no algae growths and less than 5 nitrates. However I'd say if you have tanks bigger than a twenty I would just buy a RODI unit. It will be worth the investment Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I should also mention that the tank will really only be alone for 3 days since I leave on the first and come back on the 5th day

So I'm going to be gone for five days and don't really have anyone to watch my 10 gallon saltwater. It has nothing but some snails and a hermit crab atm but I'm worried about the salinity rising. My house is air conditioned and was wondering if I could leave the ac on and turn off the aquarium...
